There is a nice Langlitz made of Goatskin that just dropped into the Classifieds, take a look at the dimensions, it might work out for you?

I think CXL horsehide goes up to like 3.5 oz; heavier is steer but also it's basically belt leather at that point. I'd suggest that instead of asking for CXL, just ask for what good heavy leathers they have. No need to micro manage; they have the tannery connections including leathers specially made for them.
Quote for a stock CHP in 3.5oz CXL is 1350 usd, thats almost exactly the aero price of 1100 gbp. Adding shipping and customs duties on top I’ll be looking at 1300-1400 gbp for a stock JL jacket - so this won’t work out economically but thank you anyone for pointing me to them.

I didn’t say “in CXL”; I said skip the CXL and ask about their excellent stock leather options. CXL wouldn’t be a stock jacket anyway; it would be a made to order jacket even if without a pattern fee.
