    Goat vs. Steer

    My impression is goatskin is a typically lighter yet a very durable hide. I have a goatskin G-1 from 1968 in great condition. Further the evidence: you can find more vintage jackets in goatskin in better condition than steer or horse. I’m taking 1930s/40s. Goat doesn’t seem to crack and flake...

I tried securing it behind the back but it just hangs loosely and looks sloppy since there are no belt loops to...

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

    Vintage steerhide Kehoe. Not for me, but for my wife. Scored a deal on this jacket. I just hope a) it fits and b) she likes it. Lousy photos from the seller:
