Thedi Leathers experience with horsehide and goat skin?

[mygar]

Wow... thought my order of two was slightly abnormal. But hey... i feel much better now

Hey guys,
First of all thank you for your help!
Quick update from my side. I've just ordered 3!!! Thedi jackets and will perhaps order another one next week (not yet decided)...I know, I'm kinda crazy and decided NOT to order a horsehide jacket from Thedi as my clear favorite HH is BKs Victory (I bought it used) and I don't want to support his bahavior. Another reason is as I wanted something different (more modern style, vintage look, different leather types such as buffalo and leather/canvas combination and Theodoros seems to be a nice guy!).
Here are the jackets I ordered and the one I need your input:

1. one in washed tan buffalo with brown/espresso buffalo pockets and cuffs:

2. one buffalo leather and military canvas combo:

3. one is a Cafe Racer in washed grey buffalo:

4. one (will most likely order it next week) is this biker jacket made from either washed/vintage looking rich tan goatskin or walnut goatskin (inspired by Jejupe) or as pictured in suede goatskin but I tend to rich tan or walnut ordinary goatskin as I don't have experience with suede jackets (soft and pliable or rough and stiff) - how would you decide??

Impressive!! You will be happy with these
As for your potential extra order, I have to say that I haven't had anything in suede in a long time, but as for your question, it's pliable.
On that jacket, I would say go with the goat since your others are in buffalo, which colour will the buffalo be for the second jacket btw?

Yep I order them by 2 as well which seems to be the norm

Thanks for your feedback. Finally I will have one tan buffalo, one tan buffalo with brown buffalo pockets, one washed grey buffalo and one military/brown buffalo combination. Yes, I also tend to order the goat (not suede goat) jacket but don't know if the rich tan is similar to tan buffalo or simply choose walnut goatskin (not sure how both look in reality as I haven't seen both yet)...difficult decision anyway.

 

[Jejupe]

About Thedi’s suede... I am not sure, but I think Its just the same goatskin as my jacket is, but just rough out. Which would make it thick and heavy but soft and pliable.

I ordered mine about 3 weeks ago... and was told delivery time around 2 months... but i am expecting 3..

I ordered a Thedi from Thurston Bros. around Oct. 10. Carrie said she's estimating that it well be here before Christmas.

No feedback from Theodoros since 2 days regarding an estimated delivery date request. I hope I'll get at least one before Christmas. As this is my first direct order to Thedi I wonder if it is usual to transfer to amount to his Bulgarian bank account? He requested me to do so and I did.

Out of curiosity, does he ask a deposit or the full price in advance?

I sent him the full price. Why? Still no answer from him...I hope he is realiable??? Getting nervous...

Nothing to worry about, I sent the transfer to that same bank.
Just send him another email

Update: Theodoros responded to my e-mails in the meantime and the expected lead time is 50-60 days....sounds like he cannot ship before X-MAS...
