Personally I think that 1mm goat would be on the "flimsy" side, but tanning methods influence stiffness and veg tan leather tends to be stiffer. Goat does have a lot going for it though, there are a lot fans on TFL.
Size 38 Field Leathers Aviator for ~650eu in Spain.
Fellow lounger I'd presume?

Might be interested.
Can you give me the measurements? Bottom hem, waist, pit to pit, chest (narrowest point between sleeve seams midway between pit-to-pit and shoulders), shoulders, sleeve length, back length...
I'm assuming the shipping is from UK?
@Olumin
Check out Rugged West as well. A rather new player in the game, but might be worth considering. A few loungers already got a jacket from them (her) and seem to be very pleased with it. I'm personally waiting for a Type 1 in Brown Pullup Bison for my wife from them.
Not much out there as far as I can tell, yeah.
Avi leathers, not made in EU though.
One incredible maker in DE but the pricing is also very steep.
Also there's Noble House in DE but they are very sketchy in my opinion, would rather avoid. Also unlikely that their jackets are EU made.
Quite...
Can you elaborate on why would it be a nightmare? My shoulders are are roughly 40cm wide and I aim for 41-44cm in garments. Anything under 40cm would likely be uncomfortable yeah.
@Aloysius
Yes, but I think layering will fill them out somewhat. I have a simplistic view on shoulders - the seams should more or less hit the shoulder bones no matter the style. But that's obviously subjective and my opinion.
Congratulations!
Looks a bit wide in the shoulders for my taste but with heavy layering those will fill out at least somewhat.
Otherwise the fit looks pretty spectacular (especially for heavy layering).
Really looking forward to you posting some complete outfits with this, very curious what...

Leather Jackets (3 currently): CHECK
I'd say cats are usually more interested in other kinds of textures, leather is usually too smooth for them. Hanging zippers on the other hand...
