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

Heres how it looks now: View attachment 587916 View attachment 587917 View attachment 587918 the shoulder is starting to crumble a bit but I think the jacket is very serviceable. What do you think?

This is beyond unwearable. Frankly, it looks rotten & disgusting and I don't understand why would you want to wear this?

I don't think it looks rotten or disgusting at all.

With some Urad shine it'll look like this well worn Hercules I once owned. Which I think looked great.

I'm not sure, possibly but from the photos there, it looks exactly like a couple of 50's jackets that I had, that were flaking into dust, how old they were. They'd leave the dusty residue on fingers and felt rotten and ugly. The one you posted still looks good.

I just don't think wearing something this crusty looking is doing anyone a favor.

Thinking of buying this schott. Old collab in blue steerhide. On the fence though.

It looks very good on these pics, fi it is at a decent price, seems like a no-brainer

Yup. Unwearable. Disgusting.

And THAT is why I love the stuff.

And THAT is why I love the stuff.

Never done the brown before only the black and it looked like shiny cheap 70s **** along with the chemically smell.

This one looks good and yours always come out looking good though.

And I do like clear Urad, but in small amounts.

 

[Observe]

A slightly off topic note: Urad has been great for me on jackets, but I used it on a pair of leather boots with a goretex liner in an attempt to improve water and salt resistance and it made the boots noticeably less breathable (feet are much sweatier after a day of wear). As a result I do not suggest its use on footwear with special linings.

It does smell like ****. Doesn’t last long though. At first the sticky, smelly combo is a bit scary. But when it dries, it’s just great. The thing is, it does nothing to hydrate the leather. On my dye jobs I think of it as a top coat of sorts.

 

[Al 916]

Agreed. But I don’t mind it at all. Gives the jacket a little character, ya know.

I agree Nacho.
Pushed to it by

The jacket is many years younger but we are both torn, worn and repaired

(long day)

Oh yeah yeah the smell is mostly when the lid is open. Little bit as it dries on the jacket and goes away after a day or so.

It was still sticky after like 2 weeks. I applied the least that I possibly could.

When I apply very small amounts of clear Urad, the stickiness is nonexistent. The clear is great for getting rid of color loss/wear through.

Patience is key with this stuff. Both when applying and for shine to go away.

It’s gotten better. Hard to picture. This pic actually looks not too bad but irl it is still way too shiny for my taste so I’ll never do the black again. This is after like 10-11 months or so.

I got this jacket on the cheap from Facebook marketplace so I didn’t care to experiment plus it had wear through.

I’d be interested to experiment with the brown.

They look cool. There one on mercari I've been eyeing. If I had one I feel like I'd want a panda though.
