HOLY COWHIDE! This is without doubt THE best jacket I've ever worn or owned. The first one I've had made to my seizes as well. I'm a pretty heavy-weight guy and it's not easy finding a jacket large enough that fits right all around. But this jacket is just perfect. It is just as advertised and then some. I got plenty of help and advise before I ordered, and that really paid off. Not only does it look the part, but it's IS just the thing. The workmanship is beautiful as is the quality of the leather and lining. What's more, with the extra cold weather I'm getting in my part of the world, this jacket really comes in handy! What more can I say except it's THE BEST!..

Magnoli has exceeded my expectations in creating a screen accurate replica of the 9th Doctor’s leather jacket. The pattern details are true to the original. I’m very impressed that Magnoli was able to incorporate my special requests for custom leather color, lining materials, and stitching details. Magnoli was also very helpful in providing sizing advice. The fit turned out quite nice. In conclusion I’m very pleased with the quality of the finished product and the level of customer service that Magnoli provides. Well done Indy!..

I have just received my jacket, and--in spite of slight damage caused by Customs carelessly opening the packet in transit--I could not be more delighted with it. The fit is excellent, the garment is robustly made and comfortable, and the attention to detail is impressive. I chose dark brown goatskin, as I wanted something warmer in tone than the 'authentic' black; I highly recommend it for anyone but the purist, since it looks imposing without swallowing light or being too forbidding. While the body has the conventional lining, I asked Indy for a striped lining in the sleeves. The effect is lavish but subtle. At the time of writing it is too warm in Southern California to wear the jacket much, half an hour or so this morning was enough to bring out the suppleness of the leather and encourage the jackt to adjust to my rather bony physique. I sense that this is going to become a daily favourite, at least for three seasons of the year. I've seen other replicas of the U-boat jacket, and none come close to matching this in cut or finish...

Just bought my second U-boat jacket with some custom alterations. Got my jacket and all alterations were done exactly to my specifications. Perfect, awesome jacket!..

After a yearlong travesty with another company that ended up with me waiting over a year for a customized jacket only to receive an off the rack jacket with none of my requested modifications, I discovered Magnoli had started making a U-boat jacket. From the moment I saw the pictures I could tell it was a better jacket. I emailed back and forth with Magnoli with many questions and alterations and my emails were always answered patiently, knowledgeably and courteously (customer service at the other company I dealt with was a total joke). The jacket was everything I thought it would be. High quality and extremely well made. I ope to get another one with further modifications to make it even more "screen accurate" to the Doctor's jacket. Highly recommended...

A stunning replica jacket, this is a minor work of art and has to be seen to be believed. Accurate yet comfortable, stylish yet retro - this is an investment in quality. Be kind to yourself and buy a jacket from Indy Magnoli, you'll only wish that you'd done it earlier...
