    Just out of curiosity, what do you put into the chest pocket? My phone (not the latest and biggest of today phone) won’t fit. Wallet is too thick, so it goes into the interior pocket. I can only think of business cards, or slim credit card case. But then, the zipper is kind of inconvenient to...

    Same thought. I never use mine. However, for aesthetic reason, it’s just a tiny bit too high.

    Once they started on the jacket making process, it will be very quick. From the time Damon had me tried on the canvas jacket to when he finished my jacket was 4 days. It was insane speed to my expectation. I left town 1 day too early so I had to wait two weeks to get the jacket in hand after...

    Leather under a microscope

    Wow, it’s crazy to see the pores under microscope. And the difference between veg tanned vs chrome tanned too. Can you elaborate more on the chrome tanned leather being charred? Maybe the cause and effect of chromed tanning process. Please give the explanation so that fifth grader can...

    Wildfang Design Visit

    What animal does this hide come from? It’s wildly exceed my imagination…in a good way What does it feel like in your hand? From the side view, it looks almost like hollowed sponge. Do you plan to order a jacket with it? Or is this just a sample they send you to check out. Either way, they do...

    While it may feel soft hand and can easily be crumbled in your hand, it’s a bit deceiving with a small piece though. I felt the same way when I had a small sample of the Shinki hh in my hand. My original thought was that “wow, really soft, nothing like I have imagined”. But when I received the...

    Got my first and probably only leather jacket: Real Mccoy's Buco J-100

    Haha, that sounds like me. When I first started on this journey last years, I said TWO. And now I’m at FOUR and still eyeing on more

    Lesser Known Japanese Jacket Brands

    Group buy sounds like a good idea at first, but only makes sense for something that has quick turnaround time. Leather boots/leather jackets take forever that the chance the buyers change their preferences/mind is fairly high.

    Haha, I get it. The shrunken horsebutt is just beautiful. Shrunken bison, on the other hand, is a lot more rugged. It looks indestructible What color is it though? One thing I notice is that 95% of leather jacket are some shades of black and brown. I would love to see a more variety of colors

    Thanks for the tips. I’m still toying with the idea and juggling between the jacket design and the quills on the ostrich hides. It will be a while before I’m taking on the actual project

    You already had that shrunken horse grizzly jacket or is it in the work now? Damon showed me a picture of an shrunken horse jacket, but it was only the sleeve
