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

Thanks, it does indeed look very VERY thick, i can't wait... I have worn moose hide before and it is super nice to wear, same stretch and comfort as deer but thicker and heavier.

Well, this work of art is actually part of a new pair of jackets, i am also having a Leathertogs A made in the same hide.
The LT/A is "currently in the works", as soon as they are both done they will be shipped, probably in a week or two.

You sir are a beast.

Just got a second round of higher res pics, the hide looks incredible:

It made it to the website in the end...

"Buco J24 in Customer-Supplied 5.0+ Oz. Dark Gray Finnish Moosehide Tanned To Order..
A One-Of-A-Kind Lost Worlds Jacket.
"

Edit: I spoke to Stuart, apparently the stud work alone took an entire day to complete. He says the sponginess and thickness of the hide made the operation very technical compared to working on the usual horse hide.
That has to be the thickest leather I have ever seen formed into a jacket! The collar looks like a legit 10oz, thicker than any belt or boot by far. The grain reminds me of buffalo a little bit. I love the color. I'm looking forward to seeing the fit pics and the evo of this one. That is just insane.

saw you scooped that one. I thought about it, but I'm pretty much at my max right now. Think it's going to be really good.

Yeah man me too! Been wanting to get something in similar style and also been greatly desiring a Thedi…then the stars aligned. Almost went for a Schott 174s but glad I waited. Though I know you’re also a big fan of the 100 series leather…I think this beaut will trump it.
