Thedi Leathers experience with horsehide and goat skin?
- Thread starter Robbie79
- Start date
Here’s few pics of my goat Thedi. Maybe these help to get an idea how it looks.
Dang impressive... my next thedi just may be goat!
Wow... amazing cross zip!!!
Thedi’s creations tend to look even better in flesh that in his Blogspot pictures. Its worthwhile to look at his facebook pics and do a google search for pictures of his jackets.
That said, if I would be forced to say something negative about Thedis, I would say that the naming of jacket models is not optimal for internet searches (or even remembering the model names).
Yes, i agree... i currently own 2 thedi and have 2 on order.
I have a beast of a CR in waxed cow (love it) ... and a CR in horsehide (i agree his hh is on light weight side... and little light on grain... none the less its developing the more i wear it and do like it)

What's the leather type and color of the first one? Russet Goat? Thanks!These two are my next ones and are being ordered soon.
Not sure what brown leather yet.
This one will not be in a pre weathered treatment and I'll see if he can make the collar points a bit smaller.

Is this waxed cowhide? How about heaviness (3oz or more?) and is the leather soft and pliable? I was also thinking about this CR and I guess it is cowhide (I'm either considering the washed black or dark green)....just too many beautiful Thedis ;-)

Thanks!
The second is waxed cow... im not an expert on judging weight in oz... but it is pretty heavy and thick. It has somwhat a firm hand but pliable... not sure if im describing it correctly. But i love it!!

Jejupe, I was wondering if you could please post a picture of the above jacket all buttoned up. Either with you wearing it or just a pic all buttoned up. I would like to see an image before I finalize ordering one. Sorry to bother.
Glad to help my friend! I am sure You will not be do disappointed with this jacket!

Hey guys,
First of all thank you for your help!
Quick update from my side. I've just ordered 3!!! Thedi jackets and will perhaps order another one next week (not yet decided)...I know, I'm kinda crazy
and decided NOT to order a horsehide jacket from Thedi as my clear favorite HH is BKs Victory (I bought it used) and I don't want to support his bahavior. Another reason is as I wanted something different (more modern style, vintage look, different leather types such as buffalo and leather/canvas combination and Theodoros seems to be a nice guy!).
Here are the jackets I ordered and the one I need your input:
1. one in washed tan buffalo with brown/espresso buffalo pockets and cuffs:

2. one buffalo leather and military canvas combo:

3. one is a Cafe Racer in washed grey buffalo:

4. one (will most likely order it next week) is this biker jacket made from either washed/vintage looking rich tan goatskin or walnut goatskin (inspired by Jejupe) or as pictured in suede goatskin but I tend to rich tan or walnut ordinary goatskin as I don't have experience with suede jackets (soft and pliable or rough and stiff) - how would you decide??
