That trucker! You should post pics of this more often. I need to see it at least once a week I think.
Thanks! Also, that is a sick trucker!

Always dig your style but this just might be my favorite yet. I wish I had a tenth of your artistic design ability. I can only imagine that it's even more satisfying for you to see your vision come together and to be able to wear a truly one off.

Cleaning up my old posts where I incorrectly identified this jacket as a Bates. Thanks to the keen eyes of members more knowledgeable than I this has been determined to be a Vanson.
Thanks man, i truly enjoy wearing it and looking it as room decoration, the hide is 1.5mm and 2mm tooling leather to make wallet, keyfob, belt loop, and the tailor is usually work with soft leather and the whole thing being experimental, so up close especially at the facing near the collar inside where last minute decission was made since the leather was too thick to fold there, but as a whole i see it as part of its identity being a prototype. It has raw edges, stained blue by the brass metal hardware itself on one sleeve i think they left a stud on it overnight on the desk and saw it stained the next morning and tried to clean it so it got worse , marked, empty needle hole since it cant go further, so much character from the start, and being natural pale vegtan it would add a lot more pretty soon, i wore it wet yesterday leaning against my seat, and the dust on my back rest already stained the back and the netting texture of my lumbar pillow marked it while wet
So happy with it and looking forward to see how it transforms intoBTW I wet moulded the small pockets one with measuring tape, the other with a deck of playing card

Dude, that looks awesome, you should consider designing clothes as a part time job at least.
Thanks @Fonzie
I love to see my drawing got made, is a fun experience indeed, just dont know who want to trust a freelance comic artist with architecture degree, and zero education in clothing to be designing jacket for them hahaha
It got a shade darker perhaps after some uv exposure and light conditioning. Totally dry and stiff like a brand new boot.

Did it shrink? Did you submerge the jacket in the bathtub or just sprayed it?
