    Has anyone had experience with Wested Horsehide

    This makes sense! The ones with the hairy surface just haven’t been sanded yet

    What I'm trying to understand is why does the outside of your jacket still look like it's made of matte leather rather than suede (the typically nappy hair texture), if it doesn't have the coating? @Monitor

    Never realised? Does that mean the durability is far worse than typical leather / a usual sheepskin hide?

    Ask a Question, Get An Answer About Outerwear

    Can someone explain something about shearling to me please? Sometimes shearling jackets have a suede texture on the outside (which makes sense to me, it’s the inside of the animal that is on the outside of the jacket) However flight sheepskin jackets e.g. the B-3 have a leather like outer...

    Looking at buying a B-3. The RMC ones look incredible (I will likely search for a used one). Are there any other brands I should look out for? The main things I am looking for are it to be fairly slim (at least slimmer than the classic oversized and super thick armed sheepskins) and the...
