Wow! fabulous jacket! The goatskin leather looks really good, quite smooth looking, not overly pebbly like some.

PS. Any particular reason you chose goatskin?

 

[Metatron]

Lovely jacket. That's close to a look i'm after, could you post some pics of you wearing it?

Nice jacekt and great leather choice. Goat is my favourite hide for a jacket.

 

[Gancho]

Really nice jacket 1087!

My next jacket will be definitelly in goat. It is a beuatiful hide and a good alterantive to horse.

Like the others I would like to see pictures with you in the jacket.

Take care and enjoy your new beauty

Thank you for your compliments!
I choose this particular black goatskin because I fell in love with it, when I got few swatches from LW.
I got samples from other top manufacturers but this one was simple the best.
Albeit is only 3 OZ still is very strong, probably I will use it for summer rides.

Thank you Sir, I will.

Thank you Seb, I love it but I still have a fond love for HH.

Thank you Gancho, you will not go wrong with goat. I will post pics, but the jacket is the star not me.LOL

Take care and enjoy your new beauty

Thank you Gancho, goat is awesome no doubt about it!.

Beautiful jacket. The Lost Worlds mouton is one of the best. Some mouton collars resemble Teddy bear fur more than real fur.

 

[DoubleXX]

Killer jacket! This should go some way towards dispelling rumors on here that Lost Worlds' leather is somehow inferior to other companies.

 

[andy richards]

That is one stunning looking jacket! Congratulations! The characteristic looking lamb shearling looks great with the jacket.
Good choice!
Cheers,
Andy

Thank you Sir!. I concur the mouton collar it's superb!

Thank you XX! I don't know who can say that. Actually Lost Worlds and Langlitz leathers are the best, for Chrome tanned leathers, Goodwear for veg tanned, IMHO.

Many thanks Andy!!
I really appreciate it!.
The collar fur really makes the jacket stands out!.
thank you again!

There was a comment on here a while back claiming the color was "painted" on Lost Worlds jackets, LOL!

Hi, that's a GREAT coat.


I really don't understand the name, though. That coat is about as Suburban as wagon train, a seaplane, or a machete.

Later

really great jacket...

 

[Metatron]

I really love the look of that. The Lost World's rust fur looks darker than the aero equivalent no?

Thank you!
I can't answer your question, sometimes pictures do not shown the real colors.

You're right...it's probably just a tad darker than Aero's rust...

Great jacket!

 

[TheSnark]

:eusa_clap Bravo Zulu, Sir! Very nice indeed... I love the combination of goatskin and the mouton collar (inspired by the Naval G1, perhaps?) Regardless of how you came to the idea, the combination is both distinctive and appealing on a civilian jacket like the Suburban. Great idea, and beautifully executed. Congratulations, I'm sure you'll put many miles on it.

 

[too much coffee]

Hey 1087:

Super looking coat, that goatskin reeks of quality. Just a class act! Between you and TheSnark, maybe Lost Worlds can garnish a bit more justifiable respect around here.

Regards, coffee

It's good to see leather jackets from other manufacturers - it looks very well made indeed. Would love to see it again when it's broken in. Many congrats and enjoy!

Congrats and I'm thinking of a G-1. I love the three inch hem at the bottom of the jackets. Good stuff.

I agree because Aero gets way to much air time here. I just got hold of a black HH peacoat this morning from LW.
