    How good are Magnoli's leather jackets?

    My Magnoli jacket is just under a year old. So far it's held up fine. No issues with the quality of construction or durability of the jacket. Mine is goatskin and still looks brand new. The lining material still appears to be in new condition as well. Unlike Aero Leather, Magnoli specializes in...

    How good are Magnoli's leather jackets?

    Magnoli is good quality. I ordered one of his jackets last year. The weight of the leather was lighter than I expected but still a nice weight. I'd say it was more suited for a spring and fall jacket than for a cold winter coat. However with Magnoli you can specify a custom liner for cooler...

    Magnoli Doctor Who / U-boat Jacket

    It's doing fine and has held up well for the one season I've had it. I'm looking forward to this fall so I can wear it more often. The only complaint I can make is that when the jacket is fully buttoned up it's just a little snug on me and it loses the ability to raise the arms past 45...

    Bad Wolf Dr Who Jacket leather Jacket-just arrived!

    I agree with you about those models on the Wearwolf site and you're definitely right about waiting for someone to post a review on them before ordering anything. Of those vendors I'd mentioned previously the only ones I've had experience with are Wested and Magnoli. Both of these had good...

    Bad Wolf Dr Who Jacket leather Jacket-just arrived!

    It is an unusual name for a leather jacket company. At first I thought they came up with the name just to play off the "Bad Wolf" idea for their jacket. However, this logic doesn't hold because they seem to offer a full product line other than just offering the Doctor Who style jacket. It's...

    Bad Wolf Dr Who Jacket leather Jacket-just arrived!

    From my research there seems to be only a handful of vendors that make this style jacket . . . Bad Wolf: Very nice Doctor Who style jacket but also the most expensive at 475 GBP + shipping. Wear Wolf: Very similar pattern to the Bad Wolf but a little less expensive at 359 GBP + shipping...

    Magnoli Doctor Who / U-boat Jacket

    Looks like Magnoli must have liked your suggestion. I was browsing though his website the other day and it looks like he has updated the U-boat jacket photos with pictures of what I'm almost absolutely certain is my jacket...

    Bad Wolf Dr Who Jacket leather Jacket-just arrived!

    Congrats on the nice looking Bad Wolf jacket! The quality and fit both look great. About a year ago I started looking into replica Dr. Who jackets and gave the Bad Wolf a lot of consideration. Unfortunately, Bad Wolf never responded to my email request for additional product information so I...

    Magnoli Doctor Who / U-boat Jacket

    Thanks everyone for the nice compliments. Unfortunately, I haven't had an opportunity yet to have any pictures made of me wearing the jacket. Once I do I'll try to get them posted.

    Magnoli Doctor Who / U-boat Jacket

    Here is my Doctor Who replica jacket from Magnoli Clothiers. I think they did a great job. To match the look of the screen used version I asked Magnoli to use a dark brown goatskin hide, redye it black, and then lightly distress it. The lining colors were custom specified to be screen accurate...

    Magnoli Clothiers Quality?

    My jacket was a customized version of one of his standard models. It was ready to ship in just about eight weeks but took a total of 13 weeks to get here. If your jacket is completely custom then it may take longer.

    Wested Doctor Who / Das Boot Coat

    Very nice! It looks quite similar to my Magnoli version.

    Magnoli Clothiers Quality?

    The quality of my Magnoli leather jacket is very good. Unfortunately, I don't have a Gibson Barnes or an Aero jacket to compare it to. However, I did try on several leather jackets at local retailers when I was trying to get my measurements together. Most of those jackets were made in China. I'd...

    Magnoli Clothiers Quality?

    It took 13 weeks to receive my jacket because the tailor accidently shipped it to Magnoli's office in New Zeland instead of to my address. Had this shipping error not occurred I believe the jacket would have arrived in about 10 weeks.

    Magnoli Clothiers Quality?

    My leather jacket just arrived from Magnoli and I'm currently in the process of breaking it in. So far I'd say that the quality of construction is very nice. I hope to have pictures posted along with a full review very soon.

    Wested Doctor Who Jackets

    After spending several weeks evaluating all the pros and cons I decided to purchase a customized version of the Magnoli U-boat Jacket instead of buying the Wested Doctor Who Jacket. From what I could tell the Wested seemed very nice for the money but it did not incorporate all the screen...

    The Wolfman Remade

    I loved all the original Wolfman movies and have them on DVD. The best order to watch them in is to go from the original Wolfman, to Frankenstein Meets Wolfman, and then conclude with House of Dracula where the Wolfman finally gets cured . . . or does he? All are great pieces of work from...

    movie hats that inspired you...

    Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones is my #1. Basil Rathbone as Sherlock Holmes is my #2 pick.

    How not to look like Indiana Jones?

    I suppose in our day and time Indiana Jones is the most regonizable figure in pop culture that people can associate with fedoras and leather jackets. It's not a bad thing but that's just how people think when they see someone dressed in a fashion that isn't that common right now. They're just...
