Help needed choosing the leather

[F Man]

Hi folks, I need a little help. Have you seen similar-coloured leather for jackets? I mean the leather that can be ordered (online) for making jackets or any jacket maker who has similar leather. My first exhibit is the interior of a Hyundai concept car and the second one is RRL jacket.

thanks in advance.

I feel it’s best to narrow down the style of jacket first, then we can offer opinions on makers and hides. Many can get you the brown tone you like. Or are you just looking to source leather?

I think Aero has a russet horse color that looks similar to the Hyundai, but not in smooth calf. I assume the car seats are calf because they are so grain and blemish free, although they could be corrected grain/sanded to make them more uniform. It looks like fine shoe leather rather than jacket leather.

Here's an example of the color from Thurston.
