Does Your Jacket Stand Up?

[Canuck Panda]

From my experience, thick leather and many seams don't go well together, super stiff and resistant to break-in. I'd rather get a design like this in Johnsons goat or bison leather or you could ask them for a sample of their redwood bison. The shade of brown differs from batch to batch, but all three samples I have seen looked fantastic and would go well with a jacket design like this.

Their goatskin is pretty good, very thick and drapes like deerskin.

The heavy horse DEL-66 is a jacket I've invested a lot of time into it, I understand the stiffness of the thick horsehide. I thought about melton wool front panels. One way or another it will get that vintage look some time down the road.

Not as well as it used to

They look like undead crawling out of their graves.

I didn't expect the Kelpie nor the tumbled CXLHH to stand up.
I thought the Lost World would but did not.
The 613SH fought valiantly for half a minute before collapsing and could not get it up again, she needs a blue pill.

Now if they do a march as an army of jackets, then I'll be impressed. ;-)
