Yep measured at party. Thank you for the introduction! Was great to meet them in person. They are so nice. Figuring out the specs has been fun and they have given great advice. Went for the large polished brass 2 way zipper and the blackwatch cotton tartan lining.

Just got an email to say they have finished making my jacket. That's one week in production and constructued by Steve at Simmons Bilt, who also measured me at the IH Anniversary party. Pretty pleased and excited to receive it.

SIMMONS BILT - TAIL GUNNER HORSEHIDE LEATHER JACKET - NATURAL

Arrived today
Is this a serious problem? Should I return it or keep it? The jacket is new and has not been worn.

Thanks for the answers

I wouldn’t say so. Leather is a natural product and that kind of thing is entirely normal. It is those sort of irregularities that will make it unique when the patina comes in.

[Oaktavia]

Seconded…looks like skin to me.

[Nik]

Is what a serious problem? I can't tell what you are referring to. Agreed that it looks like a great leather jacket.

Sorry, my mistake. Back panel have some wrinkles as you can see on the photos.
Now, my OCD can live with that but I am afraid that leather can crack in the future. Newer had experience with wrinkles on new leather jacket.
