Very nice but pricey indeed!

I doubt I'd buy it without handling, either - by the time Lewis were into coloure leathers - the 70s - the jackets themselves could be a bit hit and miss in terms of hide quality.

Lewis are always into coloured leather jackets.
Saw one some two or three years ago in a shop like the one pictured above except the shoulder panelling was a bright yellow.

Two less common colors I love on a jacket are natural chromexcel and color 8. I own a schott color 8 sunset jacket and I'm mesmerized by the color on it. I know it isn't that special but I love the depth of color I see in that bad boy.

As for natural, I think it looks beautiful on a double rider jacket. It's a shame the only 2 I've seen was that beautiful collab schott did with context clothing and the gustin one which isn't that good.

Also gotta say I love that J-100 in Navy on Lost Worlds Website. What a thing of beauty.

Yeah, they still do 'em now on request, but that didn't start til the later 70s. It woild bevinterestingvto know what proportion of their sales are colours other than black!

I suspect most of them would be all black anyway. Now that they have switched to using horse, the only colour for cow/steer is black. I guess most of the brighter colour jackets actually go to Asia, or Japan to be more specific.

Colours like bright yellow, turquoise, the lighter shades of blue or red tend to find a large customer base in Asia.
Europeans and North Americans are more fond of shades of black, brown and navy.

Regarding colours, does anyone know if Aero still has that marvelous midnight blue hide?

Snatched this Kehoe up right away tonight. Size 44" looks like a cool blue.

If it won't fit, Ton...

LOL!! Probably true...Always a gamble with eBay measurements!

 

[nick123]

Definitely thinking olive horse LW. Maybe a Roadhouse in it. I've loved that color forever.

Is there anything other than black?

That Kehoe looks epic! I recently bought one off eBay in black and I love it.
That blue is so nice.
