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

I have a dim fear that this jacket will become my absolute favorite and the other jackets will suffer because they will be worn less. lol
Let's see if I will sell the Field Leathers No 1.

The leather looks very attractive.

In parallel with all my today's orders for jackets, I was constantly looking for the leather and style of the jacket that I had 20-25 years ago. I thought for a long time that my jacket was made from a cowhide. But now I'm more and more inclined to think that the jacket was made from such a sheep as in your photo.

Did you send them an original to study or photo references? They've done decently with some photo based models but I think their best stuff has been from studying vintage in hand.

It was based off pictures with a very detailed set of measurements. The whole process is somewhere in thir big thread here. Getting a vintage smoke would be difficult and very expensive.

I was lurking on Mercari through Buyee and found a Lost Worlds Ryder for around 160€ so I decided to try it. I'm not sure about how this will compare with the ones @red devil and @Carlos840 have but I'm curious to try it and for the money I doubt it can be that bad. It probably is an older model but not sure if it's one of those that are warned against on the website of Lost Worlds. I compared with the Ryder page and couldn't see much difference other than the lack of hanging loop at the neck.

I suppose there were some made for the Japanese market because I have seen some stores sell this particular jacket in different sizes and you can find some Lost Worlds stuff in Yahoo Auctions often.

I'm hoping that it will look as good as this one does: https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/ryder-jacket-lost-worlds.89735/
That looks very much like the Ryder that Stu made me a couple years back, I think you did well on this one!
