How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

[Carlos840]

Just got a second round of higher res pics, the hide looks incredible:

It made it to the website in the end...

"Buco J24 in Customer-Supplied 5.0+ Oz. Dark Gray Finnish Moosehide Tanned To Order..
A One-Of-A-Kind Lost Worlds Jacket."

Edit: I spoke to Stuart, apparently the stud work alone took an entire day to complete. He says the sponginess and thickness of the hide made the operation very technical compared to working on the usual horse hide.

This one looks fantastic with all the studs and the thick+heavy moosehide. Must be a tank of a jacket and my favorite one of your massive collection. I'm looking forward to your fit pics soon. Is it vegetable or chrome tanned moosehide and natural or printed grain?

 

[BlueSteel]

I'm blaming you guys...your enthusiasm for leather jackets is contagious...so I stopped looking at/drooling over this beautiful Aero J106 from Thurston and pulled the trigger. I love the grain on this one!

It is now on its way to me!

Thanks Robbie, the hide is chrome tanned (good luck getting Stu to use anything veg tanned!), natural grain.

This is where it came from:

Thanks and yes I had a look on Kokkolan's website, that's why I was asking about the natural or printed grain

WoW! Man, it's so beautifull, I wouldn't dare to wear it!
The hide looks really thick!
When do you receive this work of art?

Thanks, it does indeed look very VERY thick, i can't wait... I have worn moose hide before and it is super nice to wear, same stretch and comfort as deer but thicker and heavier.

Well, this work of art is actually part of a new pair of jackets, i am also having a Leathertogs A made in the same hide.
The LT/A is "currently in the works", as soon as they are both done they will be shipped, probably in a week or two.

Awesome. Too much bling bling for my taste, but the rest is insane.
From this hide a cafe racer… *dreaming*

wow it is really look thick, congrats.

maan that 2 studs near the tip of the belt will you be able to not get annoyed by them to slide in and out the buckle everytime, especially since it is a narrow garrison buckle, if the buckle is C shaped or wider rectangular or more oval it might be a lot easier to navigate through

That has to be the thickest leather I have ever seen formed into a jacket! The collar looks like a legit 10oz, thicker than any belt or boot by far. The grain reminds me of buffalo a little bit. I love the color. I'm looking forward to seeing the fit pics and the evo of this one. That is just insane.

That would be awesome with a rusty mouton!

There is an LT B planned for me, just need to make sure of sizing

Yeah, the B seems to run slimmer. That design has to imo.

 

[red devil]

Yeah, I need to nail it, as we only get one shot with this hide!

With LT A I am now a size 42, with B not so sure.

You and Carlos bought the entire moose huh?

 

[red devil]

No, I ordered a batch of this custom colour - a very dark grey - directly from the tannery and had it sent to LW

That was the only way I could get more moose jackets made lol
