@JurassicUtility what a steal.
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?Just got a second round of higher res pics, the hide looks incredible:

Thanks and yes I had a look on Kokkolan's website, that's why I was asking about the natural or printed grainThanks Robbie, the hide is chrome tanned (good luck getting Stu to use anything veg tanned!), natural grain.
This is where it came from:

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.
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?

John Lofgren Monkey Boots Shinki Horsebuttt - $1,136 The classic monkey boot silhouette in an incredibly rich Shinki russet horse leather.
Grant Stone Diesel Boot Dark Olive Chromexcel - $395 Goodyear welted, Horween Chromexcel, classic good looks.
Schott 568 Vandals Jacket - $1,250 The classic Perfecto motorcycle jacket, in a very special limited-edition Schott double rider style. 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.
You sir are a beast.
I have moose hide left, not sure what to do with it yet, might do a moose grizzly...
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.Just got a second round of higher res pics, the hide looks incredible:

That would be awesome with a rusty mouton!I have moose hide left, not sure what to do with it yet, might do a moose grizzly...
Grizzly Appalachian or LT B.
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.
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.
