Man in the mirror :) goatskin crosszip

I am messaging them. Here’s the frontal shot, unlike their stock photos and YouTube hats, this one visibly has a non-parallel crown.

These farmers say they are short, at least, the particular piece of skin was quite small, not enough for one adult jacket. :)

My post would be more suited to the thread “jacket owned by others…” :)
