This example you posted looks like a jacket I saw in one of the Tanaka books by a maker in California. Is this specific one a second hand jacket?

Are you planning to get crocodile jacket made or buying something ready made or second hand? Are you looking for Alligator or a type of crocodile? If so which type?




He got inspired by Marlon Brando who pulled it off much better than him

Thanks for bringing this thread to my attention @JMax

Shark is great!

As you may know I have a sting ray jacket in the works, but it will be combined with another leather, as the sting ray skins are too small to make a good looking jacket in size 42. It will be some time before it is ready :)

RD, you have proven my point! I knew you could do it. Panache to burn.

Thanks Benny,

Didn't know how these were going to turn out, but I find that it comes down to the same thing after all. If you have a decent to good fit, match the jackets reasonably well, you will feel confortable and make it work. It worked well beyond my expectations :D
