Thank you so much. That's a very helpful post.
Since I can't PM (do I need a certain post count, maybe?), I hope he sees this... If anyone could PM him to check here that'd be great!
Seb, would you be willing to post photos of your 3 oz. brown cowhide jacket? I'd be looking for something very similar in a dark brown!
Does it hold up to a little water okay, and is it the naked cowhide or another?
It's a finished hide and was recommended for use here in Oregon, so rain shouldn't be a problem.
I tried searching for images of Seb's jacket but it appears that they've been removed from the hosting site. I believe that the bottom, middle jacket in the one remaining photo on that thread (the grouping of jackets) is his JL half belt. His jacket is very similar in style to my own half belt. However Seb chose the button cuffs and a back featuring a yoke with a half bi-swing design as opposed to the full bi-swing on my jacket. I believe that I chose to go with a slightly longer length than he did.
I'll try to send Seb a PM as well.
Seb replied to my PM. Of course, only then did I learn that Seb had already posted up while I was composing my own reply.
Timing, as they say, is everything. For better or worse.
