Much as Indiana Jones travelled the globe in search of The Ark of the Covenant, many a budding adventurer has been tirelessly seeking the most authentic version of the original Raiders of the Lost Ark leather jacket... And here it is.

After 30 years we go back to our original Hero jacket pattern available to yours truly.

Made to order using the original patterns created by Wested Leather Co Ltd for Harrison Ford back in 1980.

The Wested Leather HERO Jacket is as close as you can come to the real thing... unless you steal one from the Smithsonian Museum or the Lucasfilm Archive, neither of which we recommend.

The jacket carries the original Leather Concessionaires label and differs in fit from the modern easy fit Wested Leather Raiders jacket that we sell today and does not fit like a regular jacket.

The jacket has no inside facings enabling the nickel zip to go right to the bottom of the jacket but may result in a wavering effect.

The collar is cut so it hangs off the back neck.

The oversize shoulder width means the sleeves are set off the shoulder and are narrower and tapered.

The inside pocket is a leather finished type with a single antique brass buckle for the side straps.

Great Jacket!

Well made. I ordered it goatskin. I will wear it as a daily. It fit as expected and as measured. I look forward to it breaking in with me on my life. Many people have complimented it. You don't see many people in just brown leather jacket anymore. Most people first ask if it's real. I don't even tell them it's an Indy jacket. I know this will outlive me.

Thanks for the great review.

Hero jacket - a piece of U.K. film history

I love my Raiders Hero jacket. It’s a high quality, old-style jacket that you can bet won’t be seen on many other people. It’s got a nice weight to it, warm too.

Thanks for the review.

I'm now getting used to the fit of this raiders hero jacket, and love it. As wested say it's not a regular fit jacket, so it does have a life of its own which is dynamic. It makes you want to take action, just like Indy. Fantastic jacket.

Thanks for the great review, its really appreciated. 😀

Hero cut goatskin

Beside the screen accuracy the hero cut is a real alternative to those who want a raider jacket that is more suitable for a athletic body shape. It fits smaller widths and broughter shoulders pretty good, is still comfortable to wear and not as roomy as the stock cut. You have to like the collar though.
Also the perfectly placed underarm gussets make it possible to raise your arms without lifting the jacket too much.
The goat hide is my favorite leather for a „not a costume“ Indy jacket. It is lightweight, soft to the touch but pretty durable and not sensitive to rain.
The quality of the jacket is very good as always.
Thank you wested for offering so many option for a fair price.

Thanks for the great review.
