- My new Steele & Jones Cazadora '36 "main hero" Raiders of the Lost Ark Indiana Jones cosplay jacket just arrived! This is made from a newer lambskin that is far more "ribby" than their previous offering which makes it perfect for the "main hero" Raiders jacket it's replicating.
Watch me unbox & review this extraordinary jacket.
Please watch my Steele & Jones Temple of Doom jacket review here: • Steele & Jones Cazador...

Indiana Jones? I’m going to have to look that movie up.
This jacket looks amazing ! Happy for you, nice addition to the collection!
Sorry. Thought I replied to this but apparently I didn’t. Thanks for watching and for following.
Absolutely FANTASTIC!
Thanks so much for watching, Gus. It’s truly a fantastic jacket
I just got my Wested Destiny last week and now I’m already eyeing a Steele and Jones! I can see how people end up with so many jackets. Thanks to you and your Destiny unboxing video, I was able to get my measurements perfect for the Wested, but the thought of having S&J custom make a jacket for me is too enticing to pass up. The real trick will be deciding on which version of the jacket to go with.
Thanks for watching and welcome to my obsession! Haha. It’s funny you say you don’t know which one to go with because I’m about to release another review video, this time of my lightweight cowhide TOD jacket from Steele & Jones! Should have it up first thing next week!
Hell yes! Now I'm even more excited to get mine next month! Wow. (This is Kevin btw)
Hey bud! I’ll subscribe back!
Congratulations! It looks great!
Thank you so much!
That’s a great fitting, great looking jacket Daniel! 🤠
Thanks Helfire! Yeah. I’m very happy with Diego’s work. I’ve got a TOD as well and an LC in the works. He’s the best Indy jacket vendor out there, in my opinion.
good for you dude and for having a passion for something.
Jacket looks absolutely gorgeous and looks great on you, Dan!!!
Thanks so much, Canyon! And thanks for watching ❤️❤️
@@riserindyyou are very welcome. 👍
Wow. You just absolutely sold me. I will definitely be reaching out to them when its time to order a jacket for my ToD cosplay!
Glad to hear it! I want a TOD from them one day as well.
I will be releasing a review of a new S&J TOD jacket next week!
@@riserindy Awesome; look forward to it! Ordered one back in May, was told it should be ready around October.
@@tasken_lander_redux4775 Awesome! My Last Crusade was ordered around then as well. Can't wait for it.
What did you go with?
@@riserindy Awesome. As I'm going for as ToD screen accurate as possible, I went with the Cazadora '35 distressed!
Awesome jacket! Congrats!
Thanks Kirk!
Hey hey, dear Daniel, That's so lovely to watch you explaining all the special features of that undoubtedly beautiful leather Indy jacket.
Great revue, bro! Very enjoyable to watch! You look so handsome in this full Indy gear, that I thought, you might even easily go for
a very young version of Indiana Jones, hahah! No seriously, you do such a great job, and I simply love your enthusiasm.
Wishing you a lot of further fun with everything related to Indiana Jones! - Stay safe, peace and kindest regards from Switzerland.
Thank you so much for all the kindness and compliments.
@@riserindy , Hi Daniel, you are very welcome, and it's my pleasure! - Kindest regards.
I definitely love my Crusade Tank chase jacket from them. Nobody gets the fit right like they do.
Absolutely agreed. They custom make patterns just for you so the jacket sits on your body like it does Ford. No other company does that. Everyone else just sizes up or down based on Ford patterns. S&J is the way to go.
Great video. Have you thought of doing a breakdown of all your Indy gear?
Thanks for watching! Yes!! I am absolutely going to do that! Waiting on a few things to arrive before I do though ;)
Looks great!
Thanks so much. They did a great job with the jacket.
Awesome review Daniel! What fedora are ya wearing brother? It looks great! Especially with the hero jacket haha looks like you're right out of the well of souls!
Thanks for watching, Nick! I’m wearing the Tognarelli SOC Raiders. He has a lighter colored felt now but this hat is… perfection. I’ve owned many hats but this was the only one where I instantly fell in love.
That looks just like the old run of Raiders jackets from Todd's Costumes. The buckles and everything. The old Todd's ones were very nice.
The old Todd’s jackets were great.
Looks great
Thank you very much! I can’t stop staring at it!
Looks awesome, man! Perfect Raiders jacket 🔥
I agree, buddy. I’m very impressed.
This was *fantastic*. Thank you for continuing your reviews - they've been incredibly informative. A (hopefully) quick question for you: How big of a difference do you think there is between the Lambskin and the Cowhide on these Steel & Jones jackets? For me, I think it'd be the difference of being able to own one - or not. (My price ceiling is pretty firmly set at $400.) I guess I'm wondering just how much I'd be missing out on? 🤔
Depends on the jacket. There’s a big difference between lamb and cow in general but if you want a Raiders main hero like mine, you have to get the ribby lamb skin. If you don’t want the main hero then the cow might be a good choice. It’s more durable than lamb without being too heavy. I’m having a temple of doom jacket made in cow as we speak. :)
@@riserindy Interesting, and thank you - I appreciate your thoughts. And Temple of Doom? Oh, man. I'm like, pre-excited *for* you. 😅
Of course! My pleasure! I’m working on another CZcams video about distressing the Wested legacy Last Crusade jacket as we speak and will hopefully do more review videos in the future. Cheers!
@@michaelj2276 I went a little crazy. Because I know Steele & Jones are about to be more backordered than they've ever been in history, I ordered TOD and LC jackets at the same time. Won't be here until late October. My guess is after Indy 5, vendors will get SO back ordered that they'll freeze orders altogether. Maybe I'm wrong but I'm not gonna take that chance :)
@@riserindy Holy crap. That makes the idea of ordering one little daunting. 😅 I only hope the Indy community can keep chugging along well after the movie fanfare dies down. 🤞
I know this is about the jacket, which looks great, but the hat is shaped perfectly, as well.
Thanks! This hat IS perfect. Made by Andrea Tognarelli of Italy. He makes a beautiful Streets of Cairo. It’s the best Raiders hat I’ve ever worn and it’s a perfect compliment to this jacket.
Not surprising. I always felt Tognarelli did the best job on the brim and shaping, while using high-quality felt. Not exactly an easy guy to place an order with. It's a shame.@@riserindy
@Man_Cave I’ve never had any problem communicating with him directly on Facebook.
Very screen accurate jacket,very beaautiful leather too !
Please can you tell me the size (42R,44R,etc..?)of your Kelso and Steele &Jones jacket ,thanks .
Thanks so much for watching. Size of my Kelso is 38, and size of my S&J is 36. My Kelso is a little big on me in the chest. It’s small in the sleeves/body length.
My S&J, however, is perfect on me.
Wow! That's a beaut!
Thanks so much. You have a great eye so I’ll definitely take that as a compliment.
Where did you get your Indy hat???
Tognarelli vintage Fedoras on Facebook. He’s an Indy fan in Italy who makes an amazing Raiders hat.
I AM 52 YEARS OLD... i bought the jacket in norway i need zice XL but it`s only in zice 50 so i hope it fits me.... i am 172 cm in hight.... i bought the bulls whip, shirt, hat... and that jacket...i ordered it.... it cost me much....plus toll and tax
What jacket did you go with?
@@riserindy Hi again, i ordered the jacket from wested in england i belive, but now my order is cancelled, they took my money and told me i get a refound for the money in 3 days. They claim they only have web shop, and their store closed 3 years ago. The whip and the jacket cost 404 pounds, in dollars it would be almost 400 dollars....now they claim they have shipped the shirt, the hat and the bag... all i need is the whip, gun holster, pants... i feel like a kid at christmas... who dare to say i am old LOL.. you are a young man and you look great as indiana jones
@thinking2much332 thank you. Did you go directly to Wested’s site? Or did you go to Indianajonesjacket.com?
How easy it to order a steele and jones jacket? How long does it usually take from purchase to arrival?
Very easy! Just email them and say you want a jacket. They’ll walk you through the process. The hard part is waiting! I’m waiting for another one right now 🤦♂️
Looks good. Good job unboxing and 'splainin'.
Brad Pitt sure looks a lot like you!
I’ll take that compliment. Haha! Thanks!
Which is the best jacket so far?
I love all of my jackets. As far as my Raiders jackets I don’t wear my Kelso relic hunter anymore but that’s not because of the jacket. It’s because it never fit me right. The S&J fits perfect so I see no reason to wear the Kelso anymore.
Unfortunately I’m a fat ass so I can’t fit into any Indy jacket! I’m like a 2xL and I’m short so I don’t have any options for a jacket. But I am trying to loose weight so I hope that goes well for me lol
Do what’s best for you. Take care of yourself. You deserve to have a good, healthy life. I’m rooting for you!
Are you on COW at Indygear?
I used to be very active there but lately I’ve only been on Facebook and Instagram.
great fit! What size? sleeve length? sleeve width cuff? forearm? elbow? thanks
Diego at Steele & Jones creates patterns from scratch for each customer so your fit will look and drape exactly as it should for your body. You won’t be disappointed. Cheers!
@@riserindy I'm noticing many of these movie hero jackets make the sleeves too baggy. A sharp eye shows most leather jacket wearing heroes I e Cruise in M I. black Leather blazer, Kurt Russell - Snake, Indy and many more have a tight fitting sleeves . Not practical for the masses or wearing a sweater under but cosmetically a nice look!
Depends on the jacket. The Last Crusade jacket has a loose sleeve. The temple of doom jacket (at least the end scene) has an obnoxiously tight sleeve. Each movie had a different jacket, and sometimes even differences between scenes in the same movie! I have 2 S&J jackets (this Raiders and a TOD end scene) and they’re both perfectly matched to what is on the screen but for my body.
That jacket has a good cut but yeah? Looks like you’re moving in armor
🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠
That was my reaction when I put the jacket on for the first time!
Where did you get your pants?
Can you do a review of your Indy pants if you haven't already?
Thanks for watching, Master Wayne. I got these trousers from Wested leather. If you order a pair, don’t choose your normal retail size. These trousers measurements are based on your actual waist measurements. I wear a size 30 in retail pants but my true waist measurement is 34.
A lot of people don’t know this and end up with pants that are way too small on them. Get a tailor’s measure and measure your waist then order your actual waist size and you should be good to go!
Cheers!
@@riserindy I have to say I am really impressed with your channel and content. I'll be subbing for sure. I really appreciate your feedback. I'm also a huge fan of Indiana Jones and will be starting my collection this year. Your channel will be my go to for reference. Keep up the great work
@1939_BruceWayne thanks so much for the wonderful compliment! If you’re on Instagram follow me there. That’s where I’m most active! Cheers!
What size jacket do you wear? And how tall are you?
I wear a 36 and I’m 5’ 10.5”
Would you be able to tell me the measurements you sent them? I am 5 foot 7” and I too wear a 36R.
Sadly, every jacket is different. Steele & Jones is very meticulous with measurements. Wested is a lot more confusing. One jacket is not like the other.
What I really like about Steele and jones is they send you a mock jacket to try on. That’s super cool and really unique. But Wested has the lineage that Steele doesn’t have. And Steele has the chocolate “ribbing” that Wested doesn’t have. So it’s hard to pick which one to buy when no matter which company you decide to go with, it’s not going to be completely accurate
Wested has the name but not the accuracy, regardless of what they claim. They’re also not very helpful when it comes to getting your measurements right. So many people put their Westeds up for sale as soon as they arrive because of sizing. It’s a shame.
Who did the hat?
Andrea Tognarelli of Tognarelli Vintage Fedoras. You can find him on Facebook. This is his Raiders Streets of Cairo model.
Do you have any experience with Steele and Jones thin cowhide?
Yes I do! I have a TOD jacket made out of their thin cowhide. Incredible hide. Great undertones!
@@riserindy Thanks. how does it compare to the lamb. drape? weight?
Drape is stiffer. Weight is very light. Can only compare to the ribby lamb they use for the Raiders main hero. It’s much lighter than that jacket.
@@riserindy thanks very much. i’m in the fence between the S&J 35 or the legacy TOD Wested. basically same price. Btw. this straited lamb raiders 36 looks outstanding on you!
Go with the TOD from S&J. It will take awhile but Diego is a master and his craftsmanship and dedication to detail is unmatched. I own Wested, S&J, and Kelso but S&J is my favorite. I’ve got an LC in the works and we’re talking about a Destiny jacket now.
For a second there, I thought it was Tristan Tate reviewing the jacket 🤣
Hahahah. That’s a first.
Wow, great jacket. How much you pay for it?
Thanks! I believe they charge $650. It may sound steep but it’s worth it. They make custom patterns just for you. No other Indy jacket vendor does that. It sits on your body right, unlike the other vendors are matching the same pattern as Harrison’s which means, unless you’re built just like Harrison, it won’t sit on you right.
I believe they also offer a payment plan to mitigate the impact of such a high cost.
You say that jacket is heavy,how heavy is it? The actual weight of the Indy jackets in pounds,each one you own.
All of my jackets are different weights.
My lightest weights are: the Wested Legacy LC and my S&J TOD in lightweight cow.
Medium weight: S&J Raiders in ribby lambskin, Kelso Raiders in lamb
Medium heavy: S&J Last Crusade in authentic lamb
Heavy weight: Wested Destiny
Ah ok, and jackets are lamb-ones, lamb's suppose to be light.isn't it?
@1976Markku most lamb skins are lighter than most cow, goat, or horse, but it all depends on the hide. Most of my Indy jackets are made of lamb and they are all wildly different in weight from one another.
I think you already had one
I did! It’s a long story but I traded that one for this one, actually!
Great deal
Yes. Diego was very kind to do the deal and it helped out another fan as well so it was a win win for all!
What is sad about this is, I wear a Lesco motorcycle jacket brown bought a long time before Indiana Jones. I also wear a brown fedora with a hi crown and wide brim again before Indie. I do not like being compared to him
Hi, and thanks for watching! I’m sorry you’re sad and I understand why, but perhaps I can put this into context.
The character and the costume are one of the most iconic pieces of cinema history. The fact that after 40 years people still recognize a brown leather jacket and fedora as “Indy” is a testimony of its impact on culture.
A shared love for this costume created an incredible community of people from all over the world. Some of the best people I’ve ever met were through this shared passion.
What I don’t understand, and I say this with utmost respect, why go through the trouble of commenting on an Indiana Jones jacket review video to make your comment? I don’t like being mistaken for a cowboy, or characters from Walking Dead but I have no interest in informing people in those communities that I don’t like being compared to their beloved characters.
I learned a long time ago that I either have to conform to fit into society or live my life the way I want and not care about what others think of me.
I encourage you to do the latter. Enjoy your jacket and fedora. Be proud that you were wearing something that became a global icon, and remember that none of us are seen the way we want to be seen by the world.
Ironically, I get mistaken for a cowboy a lot more than Indiana Jones.
Precio una m.
The price on them are way too high.
Depends on what you’re willing to pay for. Some world war 2 flight jacket replicas can cost as much as $1,500.
Steele & Jones has cheaper options, but the accurate hides they use are very expensive because they have to be custom created in small batches to achieve the level of accuracy they strive for.
They also expertly distress the jacket to match what’s on screen. They’re the only Indy jacket vendor that does this. Other people charge upwards of $200 to do this to your jacket.
Finally, they’re the only Indy vendor that creates new patterns from scratch for every customer so that the jacket will sit on your frame properly. All the other vendors use a base pattern that they will size up or down, which means if you aren’t built like Ford, the jacket won’t sit on you the way it should.
All of these premium details add up to a lot of labor, not to mention the high cost of importing goods to Argentina, etc…
If you want a cheaper option from them you can go with their lightweight cow. It’s a great leather and almost $300 cheaper. I have a TOD jacket in lightweight cow from them that is excellent.
Cheers!
I hate lambkin! Its delicate, shreds easily and after hard use it literally falls apart. Give me cowskin or sheepskin any day.
That’s a nice jacket and amazing hat! My Steele and Jones hat is by far my best custom hat
Thank you so much! I have an S&J hat as well. It’s built like a tank!
