Horween® Horsehide Jacket No. 65 | Tan

They seem to have quality leathers. Not 100% sure on overall design but I found out about them when searching for Bison leather jackets.

G1 jacket looks decent but would be better with proper shearling collar.

Hem width? Doesn't seem to be raising his arm that high even.

I wouldn't want internal leather patch pockets either, a lot of unnecessary bulk:

Looks anything but flattering:

Otherwise materials and build quality look pretty good.

Worth the price for a Made in Mexico jacket? Hard to say.

I like their vests a lot more than their jackets haha.
Especially this one:

It looks like its marked towards dads, my only complaint is it looks a little wide in the waist - a slight taper would make for a more appealing design.

Well, the last time I was on their site was about a year back and their prices have gone up quite a bit. They are now past Vanson and taking aim and Schott & Aero.

Some of the photography leaves me puzzled, as has already been discussed. (The jackets do not seem to fit the models very well). However, the construction & leather quality looks good, especially the "stone washed bags". I am not aware of anyone on this site ordering from them and having a "Coronado" jacket directly, so I do not have that to offer either.

I wonder if this may be an offshoot of Gibson & Barnes - a Southern California company that for many years-built Pilot's jackets & military styles, along with some motorcycle jackets. In fact, for ~ 9 years I owned a Gibson & Barnes Coronado that I sold off in 2018. It was a super-heavy jacket, but the leather never really developed any character. It was nice but a bit much overall. https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/gibson-barnes-coronado-46t.94659/
