Terrible news, sorry to hear. Do you have any recourse at all, like a refund or something?

refund but i don't care about the money at all. If i could i'd pay double the price for it, it was that perfect.

Do you guys ask for updates when you order a MTO jacket?

I was quoted 8 weeks 11 weeks ago and I wonder if it’s ok to ask for an ETA.

I don't see any reason why not.

Anyone ever had a jacket made of kudu? Saw this jacket on the Thurston Bros site and I like the way it looks. I have a pair of kudu boots and quite like the leather.

From the jackets I've gotten, they're meant to be dyed-through black. For some of the denser parts of the hide, the dye may not penetrate all the way and you have this white stripe in the center as show in the pull below:

The only kind of brown-core I've seen is on LW's russet hide.

Maybe this leather is from an older tanning process or exclusive to Japanese market? But I'll leave that to customers with more experience than me.

From talking to Stu (and he's made this well-known publicly), he is no fan of tea-core or "antique" effect.
I don't know for certain, but I got the feeling that he's not necessarily against black fading to brown core - just hates the idea of hides being deliberately treated to show such wear relatively quickly.

Any recs for patterns with a short back length and longer front length? Similar to the buena vista.
