    Thank you again for an excellent explanation which can’t be seen anywhere. I started to doubt about horsehide being so much better than steerhide when I saw this Gallo-Juchten leather which is cowhide made by a Switzerland tannery called

    I hear that Shinki Hikaru Co.Ltd. is a tanner in Japan which is dedicated to horsehide. Horsehide jackets are about 50~100% more expensive than the steerhide version of the same jacket.

    Does someone know about horsehide? I mean, which is more durable? In Japan horsehide is about 80% more expensive than steerhide.

    I think you’re right. I bought it when Langlitz was still talking direct orders from Japan. I ordered it to be made of the thickest leather available. It was significantly thicker than the Langlitz I can see in shops at Ueno, Japan. The bottom photo is Schott 184 SM. This is the first leather...

    Scarecrow Company is a small shop. I doubt they kept many jackets in stock, which means Johnson Leather made all of their leather jackets. The bottom jacket is Langlitz made flight jacket. It’s a quality. If I asked Johnson Leather to make a flight jacket better than this I know they can do it...

    I believe it was made by Johnson Leather because Mr. Zaffrin still seems to have the patterns. But perhaps shops other than Johnson Leather might have participated in making the jackets.

    Well, this medium length coat is 13.7 lbs.. It’s like wearing a medieval brass armor. It has a 3/4 inch mouton fur lining and is very warm, as a matter of fact it’s too warm to wear it in Tokyo.

    Thank you for a very interesting story about rug soles. Yes, I have badass jackets and boots. Most of my cheap jackets are made in Pakistan. They sell them under the brand name Lyugoo. It’s not that bad though. Because the leather is thin like toilet papers it’s light. My heavy mountain boots...

    The guy wearing sunglasses calls himself Zia but it’s definitely not his real name because he is a Japanese. The leather jacket is called 「Time is On leather jacket 」. The leather is thin as the skin of your eyelids. Zia says it a crime tanning cowhide, which explanation is wrong grammatically...

    Hi, I’m Arrandale. I’m now quite enthusiastic about old fashioned old school type heavy leather mountain boots. The 1st 3 photos are ‘ Pulse 7000G which an adventurer Naomi Uemura wore when he succeeded in solo-climbing Mt. McKinley. He never came down though. The last 2 photos are Kamoshika...

    Japanese are so bad at naming things that it even pains me. The bottom left photo is Yah-Ta Hey Leathers ‘Tacoma’ coat and the right is ‘Montana’. Mr. Narusawa, the former owner of Scarecrow Company named it, but what he did was putting names of states to sound like something from northern USA...
