Badalassi cowhide jacket makers?

[red devil]

All of these colours look good and age even better! Would choose Petrolio as well I think

New, instore & online - BILL KELSO CADET BADALASSI LEATHER JACKET

This is a 1920s-30s very popular shawl collar cossack style sports jacket worn by aviators, motorcycle riders, hunters, and even factory workers.
Various makers of the era offered their versions and among the most notable were Levi’s, Simmons Bilt, Knopff and H&L Block.
Back in the day those companies made most of these jackets unlined, but today Bill Kelso produces it with a choice of linings for more versatility.

This design is based on an early and rare H&L Block which features zipper closure, shawl collar, and two arrow shaped patch pockets.

The Badalassi Carlo Tannery has an over 40 year long specialization in vegetable-tanning. The cowhide leather option has endured the test of time in the Japanese market, and several renowned leather jacket manufacturers use and value it more than their horsehide counterparts.

Badalassi cowhide is a high quality full-grain vegetable tanned with aniline finish leather. In fact, its aniline finish is one of the best seen. It gives a deep, rich and uniform colour like no other.

This is a beautiful jacket. The Badalassi and jacket style looks super nice!

I would like a jacket in the badalassi ortensi. Who could make me up a jacket in that leather? SB?

I wonder if aero or SB could

Aero has a limited choice of colours regarding Badalassi (at least they did when I ordered mine). I would contact both companies if I were you.

I’m not sure about those two doing it. I remember Kelso was open to the idea of colors. I would try something cool from their Archive Collection!

Thedi leathers had some Badalassi, not sure what they now have at hand though

The AA Crack link is very helpful! I now am convinced my T2 jacket is actually the Nero Badalassi! Wow

Looks like an answer could potentially be Field Leathers:
