IHJ-129-BRN - Japanese Horsehide Riders Jacket - Brown
-
Taking advantage of a much welcomed mid summer cold front
-
Got about 15 hours of wear in yesterday and noticed that the folds above the cuffs are starting to settle.
Also some of the natural leather is starting to show through. I assume this is exactly what I should expect but I hope the second one is the shape of things to come (I prefer the more feathered edges) Maybe that’s just a function of location (cuff vs armpit).

Looking good @ARNC
The scuffs will look more faded and natural with time

@flannel-slut that is a stellar shirt & jacket combo! Congrats sir!
Is that the IHSH-235? Envious peeps would like to know…The journey is the objective.
-
@motojobobo see over in the dyeing clothes thread, he overdyed it!
-
Ahhhh…thanks @tody
-
@motojobobo thanks moto

@flannel-slut yeah that DIY emerald green is so nice! I really want a burgundy Serge shirt, but wouldn't wanna overdye my cherished grey one...
-
@T4920 thanks man. And a burgundy serge would look daaamn good but will say the dye was a little resistant to penetrating the serge material which might be why I have some streaking. Going from a light grey to a burgundy may create too much contrast if the dye does not take uniformly. Then again, it could have more of a tie dye effect and look sick… don’t mind me. Thinking out loud at this point.

Serge is such a great fabric it really does look good in most colours. A brick red/burgundy is not a bad shout at all, perhaps a navy or indigo would be cool too. Then a CPO, with copper snaps and.... to the "samples and things we should make" thread, I go
). It never happens when I wear anything else so I guess I’ll have to accept the horse looks better than I do
