For my next jacket, I've been searching local store for leather (since the tailor tell me to find the leather myself) so I find this local tannery who has online shop, and apparently have several pullup leathers in goat and cow
http://www.jualkulitelco.com/katalog/KS/8/95/95/Kulit-Sapi-Pull-Up-Hitam
there is the one I found, could we detect/ judge the general quality feel of it from a picture only (it is a webstore, and located in the other end of Java)
I wonder what are the characteristic for this kind of leather for a jacket? how it performs/ lasts? I kinda expect they look would be quickly aged and faded much quicker with wear, but do they feel stiffer? or do they absorb water?, would the color bleed? etc. Could somebody help me?
and another question, how many sheets typically do we need for a single long cafe racer jacket with small shoulder gusset? in goat or cow. for a scrawny 175cm 62kilos guy
do black pullup jacket look good with silver hardware of is it better with brass/ antique? I need to ask because I couldn't imagine how the leather would look once faded/ weathered
thank you
