    Johnson Leathers black cowhide MC-500

    ^^ cool cool that will be so much easier to break in and have the brown peak through quicker. I'm sure they are packed with orders, I'm not expecting my German HH jacket until next year.

    Hercules Leather Co - England

    ^^ I can say that the hides look better in pictures too, the 5 star leather offering is all pigment finished that looks rather dry hope they offer a more waxy finish

    Thanks for that, learned something new today. Washed cowhide is so grainy, it is very good I'm sure that wears well too. I can't agree with you more, that cross zip thedi you have in that hide is perfect. I'm saving up for one for next year, not sure if I want HH or the buffalo. What full...

    Five Star Leather vs Johnson Leather for Custom Jackets

    Great deal for a top to bottom made to order one off (that helps the maker have a pattern for others who want the same thing) that fits to a tee and looks the part

    Five Star Leather vs Johnson Leather for Custom Jackets

    I don't know how they charge but for reference the goatskin jacket they made for me totaled to $700 w/ taxes & fit jacket, $900 for cxl w/taxes& fit jacket, $950 for the veg tanned HH w/ taxes and no fit jacket.

    I remember the bruciato (if that's how Thedi spells it) HH sample you shared after Thedi washed it. I was wondering if that can also be done with badalassi? Hopefully next time his supplier can get you guys a better batch.

    The only aniline right now is the black that he offers The sample you quoted looks like medium brown to me. I would imagine the seal brown would be much darker than that and closer to black than chocolate. Too bad, the pictures didn't look very appealing at all. What do you think will happen...

    Thanks for sharing. The dark brown oil tanned jackets they make sure are gorgeous Hope he is able to get enough good pieces out of that stockpile Medium brown and red brown looks promising. Which hide will you pick since tobacco badalassi is not available? Looks like all pigment finish to me

    Five Star Leather vs Johnson Leather for Custom Jackets

    I've had a 5* trucker made and going on 3 custom JL now. So I'm familiar with them both too. Both companies are responsive and easy to deal with. I ordered a seal goatskin trucker which is well made but the buttons they used were not up to par so I had to replace those right away. The panels on...
