Trying to identify this Captain America heavy grain leather jacket:

I was watching Captain America the other day and noticed the grain on his leather jacket. I can’t find any info on it. I did a search on here with no luck. I love the deep texturing.

That looks like sheepskin - Lewis Leathers has some offerings similar to this.

Thanks, I’ll check them out. I have a black sheepskin with deep grain but I’ve never seen one that deep.

It could be Bison or Buffalo.
Here’s a link with some examples:

Differences between buffalo and steerhide leather jackets?

I'm interested in the most important differences between buffalo hide and steerhide, and there is some conflicting/confusing information online, so I thought I'd ask the real experts... 1.) In terms of "weight", how different is the same exact jacket in 1,0 mm buffalo hide vs. 1,0 mm steerhide...

When I first saw it I thought Buffalo. Thanks for the information.

My vote goes to shrunken bison or bull. Y2 makes a similar one.
