    Exploring the Uncharted Territory of Crocodile Leather Jackets

    Thanks! I do not have rock star panache - wish I did! - But I do intend to find out if I can pull it off. It has been on my mind for years. Either way it can only be fun :D

    Exploring the Uncharted Territory of Crocodile Leather Jackets

    Difficult to tell for sure, but it seems genuine. I have been wearing crocodile shoes quite regularly, if the hides are well cut and matched, it is not jarring to look at. A jacket is more visible of course, this I have not tried yet

    Exploring the Uncharted Territory of Crocodile Leather Jackets

    This is how I would want my crocodile jackets to look like, very cool, a lot of visual presence but also tastefully done! A very delicate balance to achieve.

    Exploring the Uncharted Territory of Crocodile Leather Jackets

    From the pic you posted it doesn't seem like you are wearing armour... does it have inserts for shoulders, elboe and back? It looks like proper functional kit, it will outlast you :)

    Exploring the Uncharted Territory of Crocodile Leather Jackets

    Think about it this way, when was the last time you saw someone wearing a leather jacket, and then think when was the last time you saw someone wearing a crocodile jacket.

    Exploring the Uncharted Territory of Crocodile Leather Jackets

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    This is more like his typical approach as far as we have seen. I wouldn't compare these two brands at all, Stuart writes in his own style on his website, but he's not bullying customers on forums or making hundreds of videos promoting his brand. He's on the contrary very discrete on the...

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    You must have misunderstood him, I cannot imagine the King of the Wonky Stitch calling out other makers / brands for their wonky sewing. It must have been praise. lol

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

    The guy who took your custom orders as in made them? Any shop should jump at the chance to use your patterns for a comission on every order. These are so unique and well thought out!

    Woman has street artist paint on her brand new thousand dollar leather jacket…

    This video looks staged. Can't say for sure, but it would not be surprising in this day and age. Painted jackets have existed for a long time, so why not? I remember posting a Tenjin jacket with a painting on the back quite some time ago. Yep!

    Ideal location/climate for leather jackets

    I guess you can either look for the perfect weather or work on being more adaptable. Either way, most countries that have a tradition for leather garments will be good places to wear them.
