Marc, love your jacket! I actually contacted Thedi about the exact same one a few weeks ago—any tips or pointers now that you’ve owned it for a bit? How do you like the canvas feel so far on both of yours?
congrats on what look like some keepers for sure!!
I love the canvas / leather combo. Somehow the canvas has the same stiffness / temper as the leather, making it drape as is it were a full leather jacket.
This one was off the rack, bought straight from the source (see link below for more on my trip to Thessaloniki). I was lucky for this sample to be a perfect fit for me. Theodoros commented "you have the perfect physique for my jackets"nice. You absolutely nailed the fit, no surprise. Did he just measure you up and take it from there? I’m a little nervous about doing this without ever trying it on. Curious if you asked for a shorter body length also.
Yes, the hide is much more rusty brown than red in real life and has a fantastic touch (kind of thick, oily and clean at the same time. Difficult to describe). It was fortunately too wide for me and (I think) is only a sample. Unfortunately, Theodoros doesn´t have that hide currently.Wow, that thing is mind melting!
Long time lurker. First custom jacket (through Thurston Bros.)
Espresso Buffalo, custom lining.
Browns are hard to capture under the best conditions, so I'm not sure how much justice these pictures are doing for the leather but I'm really interested to see how this wears over time...As for the lining, Thedi had posted a jacket done with this lining on social media when I made my order and thought it might look nice with this leather. I'm sure not to everyone's taste but I'm digging it...and of course the fit and finish feels spot on. Hopefully first of many.
