i have a SB Roadster in black ranger horsehide. i chose it from all the samples Deb sent as i thought it would not need much break in and have the good amount of drape pretty quick. And i am really happy with the results.
I am about order to their Klondike in the Brown smooth horse. Again...

I had a few IM's with the company earlier this year asking about ordering. The last one was on July 8th and he said they were still in lockdown in Thailand and he wasnt sure if he was starting up again.
I have seen these before and i like but its too close to my Aero HWM in oil pull-up and i have too many other styles to get first. :rolleyes:
And i am working on an order for a button up work coat in a more traditional brown veg/chrome tan. Otherwise i would be interested.
What size just out...
I recently tried a method i read on this forum for softening up a jacket. I put my Schott 370 roughout jacket in the spin drier on cold for 30 minutes. Helped a lot, it drapes better and conforms to my body and movements how i like now.

but all the feedback seems like its not a thing in leather jackets.
Informative and condescending.
I know some highend boot makers use waxed Flesh like Nicks Boots and Viberg call it something different plus Whites have something as well. These waxed leather boots are popular.
I understand what works in boots might not work in a jacket but was interested if...
I am curious as to why this type of leather is so rare in jackets. A few reasons come to mind but hard for an amateur like me to know exactly how much weight each reason has.
Definitely what you have mentioned, that basically waxed flesh leather doesnt allow for as much pricing...
Stumbled across this Satchel & Page Montgomery Type 2 trucker and it is listed as being British waxed leather. It looks gorgeous.
Does anyone have experience with waxed leather jackets? I know waxed leather is popular in boots but i have not seen or heard much waxed leather in jackets.
Again...
I know this is from a long time ago but i have just got an Aero Royale in this leather and interested to see how this looks in a Aero Trucker. I see you havent posted in 18 months but anyway. Any pics? or experience with battered steer in an Aero Trucker?
