Thurston bros had it made with button sleeves, instead of the standard stud fastening for some reason, but it looks and works great.

I've worn it intermittently in the spring. It has some light wear as is standard on the Aero front quarter horse hide, but as you're probably aware, that is a HEAVY hide and very tough. It's only begun to be broken in, and still pretty stiff. The action back makes movement easy though. Basically I have another jacket I reach for more and I thought to move this on to someone who can really appreciate it and give it the wear it deserves.

The lighting in the pictures are a bit dim, and the color is much richer brown as you're familiar from other posts on this site. I'd say the photo of the chest zipper is the most accurate as to color.

Asking $700 which includes shipping to the CONUS. Please be able to use Paypal.

Nice one! It is probably their 3.5oz horsehide, have you weight the jacket?

This is Aero's chromexcel front quarter horse hide and it weighs in at a bit more than 7 lbs. so it's heavy and durable for sure.

Beautiful jacket, is this a roomy size 40 or snug? I've shifted 20lbs although not sure if
I could pull this off.....Was it made for you or OTR? Your dimensions might help here.

It has room for layering. I worked through Thurston Bros. to have it made for me. I'm 5'10 and around 170lbs.
