Leather under a microscope

Horween **** Strip Macro: 90X: 180X: 270X: If I had to guess, I'd say this is probably horse. I say this based on features that are not exactly visible in the photos, namely the firmness and density of fibers. This is another corrected leather, only clearly with a different treatment...

Kit is surprisingly thin but grainy.

Obviously not mine. It looks almost like elephant leather.

Why buy vintage / Shinki if one can just buy a Thedi? One and done.

Ralphs-Pugh Steerhide is amazing even after all these years. This one has the first Steerhide label from 1938. What a great jacket.
