    Johnson Leather Jacket

    I initially contacted Alan from JL for another idea. But after discussing it at lenth decided not to go for it. So I asked him if he was willing to make that aviator jacket with a few modifications such as the british style side straps instead of the laces. After two mockups, I got the first one...

    What’s your favorite leather for a jacket?

    Yeah for the rain, most of the time it is LW. I still remember when I took off my Suburban after a three hour ride in heavy rain, same as @JMax mentionned, my jeans were drenched in a matter of minutes at most... and my upper body was completely dry. I have yet to test my chrome tanned JL...

    The fit is freat overall, but that is not surprising from Thedi. His patterns are pure magic :D I have to say I really like the graining on this jacket, I know you would want to see it develop, but habe no fear the jacket wil lstill evolve with use. I also have to concur with @Marc mndt it is...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    You really pull it off! :D This is looking nice, it is quite a fun coincidence as I started thinking of looking for an deer skin fringe jacket some time ago Congrats! You clearly are ready for the ELS version if you want to go for it. :D

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Agreed, finding that special batch of leather is a lot of fun. :) I originally bought it to use it on a car coat type of jacket, but ended not using it. I am thinking of bringing a few of the hides to Electric Leather Studio - whenever that becomes possible - to make a lightning or a flow. But...

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    I have the arnoured version of the MC-500 here in a functional cowhide, it is very confortable. So I suspect yours will be as good as the original one: https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/johnson-leathers-black-cowhide-mc-500.102488/ I really like JL, they don't seem to have any limits so...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    It is certainly fun to buy your own leather, but generally makes the project more expensive overall... apart when you buy wholesale... but that is more complicated to deal with lol I think the SB offering is of kokkolan is a steal, granted it is the printed hide which limits the wastage but...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Once you reach a certain level of leather than it is more a matter of preference on what you choose. That being said, I do find shinki to be over-hyped in general. I say that while being naturally biased towards Japoanese made goods. Not all leathers coming out from Shinki is top end, their...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    It is the same with people who buy fashion brands and think these are the best made items. In their case they can impress the people they seek to impress I guess... Edit: I should mention that some of the fashion branded items are actually well made, as @Monitor showed us recently. It really is...
