Thanks very much for this. It was actually the way this jacket looked on you that convinced me to go for Steele and Jones. I’m nervously awaiting my package in the mail right now!
Hey, man! Great review... maybe the best I've seen of S&J, so far. The jacket is indeed beautiful, with the right undertones, level of distress and overall fit.
A lot of people don’t know that the jacket was also armour for Indy…Bugs mosquitoes getting covered with grass leaves remember in the rainforest even the leaves can cut for warmth but the jacket was definitely armour used as armour for Indy..
I’ve got eight of them already I even washed some of mine in the washer and dryer in the dryer because they were longer than I wanted when I first started but you have to make sure if they’re longer make sure you pull them out of the dryer before they shrink up too much try them on while you’re wet in the dryer to make sure they don’t shrink up too much I did two of my jackets like that because they started out they were too long
You have really beautiful jackets there. I think it is perfect choice to have one tight fitting to your body for cold summer days and movie fit for other mood and cold parts of the year
As DominusDash stated, the 2 pronged british buckles were used for the Raiders jackets. The D rings were used for the Last Crusade jackets though! Thanks for dropping by!
S&J jackets are so so amazing. Its a shame that US Wings bought the licensing because their jackets are total dogshit. Literally the worst of every maker and theyre double the price. They dont even custom. You just get trash cowhide in standard S-XL sizes. Shame that people think theyre the real deal when actual fans like Steele and Jones make far superior jackets.
Thanks for watching the video! The droopy shoulders are a part of the design itself, as it is seen in the film BUT don’t let it stop you from getting one! You could order one without this feature if you’d like. All depends on how you want your jacket to look. Thanks again!
Funny thing is, I'm actually starting to wear my first jacket more. I might make a video about it showing off its striations since it was a lot more ribby. Thank you for dropping by!
Second one is by far better in my opinion. The fit isn't as short, more screen accurate. I feel that a lot of the Indy jackets are made too short and this is exactly the way it should fit.
@@zaneadams2523 I actually think the longer back length looks good but I think the size 36 looks better on him as opposed to the 38 of the second jacket.
@@raiderreviews7667 thank you for this wonderfully detailed review, both of your jackets look wonderful! Two questions if you don’t mind; Do you know the name of this particular lambskin used on your jackets? And could you tell me how much longer is the front and back of your second jacket, compared to your first? Both look great on you, but there is something about the fit of the second that seems more screen accurate. Like you mentioned, I guess it comes down to personal choice. Thanks again, and I hope you get many years of adventures out of both your jackets!

That's one of the best reviews I've ever seen. Wonderful job - AND, beautiful jacket!
Thank you Brian! I really appreciate it!
The best video on the Indy’s raiders jacket ! Thanks
This is by far the best overview of buying an Indy jacket on UA-cam
Thank you so much for the kind words. I hope it was able to help you decide which jacket to get as well!
Hey, man! Great review... maybe the best I've seen of S&J, so far. The jacket is indeed beautiful, with the right undertones, level of distress and overall fit.
Great video ! This might make me pull the trigger on one. I have a Legacy hero Raiders from Wested, but wow does the S&J looks good.
how is the legacy different from the hero besides hide?
Great review and overview of the different jackets in the films, and the options available!
Thank you for taking your time to watch, I hope this video helped!
Fits great on you ! I ordered a Magnoli one! Crossing my fingers hoping I didn’t screw up the measurements 😂

Best video on the raiders jacket !
Wow! What a FANTASTIC review! Thank you for this!
Great video! Are you still happy with the longer fit? I am just finalizing my order. 😅
After two years how is the jacket holding up ? Im planning on buying a Cazadora 35 soon. .
Thank you for the well produced video!

Dude it’s perfect!
Great review! I was wondering if you still condition your jacket using Red Wing - Leather Cream (Neatsfoot oil blend), has it darkened the jacket?
Awesome video!!!! Going for the Crystal Skull jacket or Cazadora 57 from Steele & Jones.
Oh and awesome jacket by the way!!!! Amazing piece of art!!!
I think Steele and Jones offers the best and most screen accurate Indy jackets. Even better than Wested.
Nice video, thanks!
Looksoutstanding
AWESOME SAUCE!
What sizing measurements did you give them? :)
Looks great.
Awesome awesome video !
Thank you for dropping by Kirk! Your indy collection and content is definitely amazing and a huge help to everyone in the Indy Community.
Bill Kelso Relic Hunter went up 220 pounds since this was made. S&J is a bargain when comparing those two.
Thanks best quality video, I order one today,
Thank you so much! Happy for you as well, you'll enjoy your jacket for sure!

Well done..
Thank you so much!
Hello 👋 Question about the distressed. Why one photo is brown clear and the other white/grey
Isn't the lamb skin super soft and pliable? Im supriced they went for a movei with it. I have one lamb skin jacket and it feels quite fragile
What was the original linning?
Thin polyester
Is Steele & Jones not a thing anymore?
Should be D rngs...?
No, the black 2 pronged british buckles are what were used for the raiders jackets.

Great review and great replica indeed, but in my opinion the huge dropping shoulder will never makes you look good, especially for smaller person.

Longer in the back length and have a more relaxed fit that is.
