Aero did a few deerskin shirts for Iron Heart that used leather from a traditional tanner in Germany. That'd be a cool choice.
Here's a photo of Haraki's after a few years of wear.
John Gluckow is a designer and vintage clothing specialist who has a range produced in collaboration with Jelado. He's done a couple of interesting leathers.
Iron Horse reversible jacket.
The Riders Horse Ride.
There's an interview with Gluckow at Heddels, which is worth a read.
NorShor Leathers offer the Tweedy Cossack, which is a slightly different thirties style.
John Chapman has a couple of Cossack patterns. I really like the Security Aviation Togs that he based off a jacket belonging to @tmitchell59.
Unfortunately ordering off Good Wear means a long and...
As @Mrfrown said, they're very nicely made. I've seen a few at Rivet and Hide, and Danny (the proprietor) was trying to make excuses to keep one for himself.

However, I keep on looking at the Electric Leather Studios jackets and thinking of going rather more seventies.
Another fan of Jacques Marie Mage here. I tried on several pairs last year, and will probably go with the Ringo (top right) or Apollinaire (left) in the next few weeks
I'm also considering the Aragon, Cassady, Clark, and Fontana, but I haven't had a chance to try these yet.
