IHAL-J100 - Iron Heart/Alexander Leathers J100

[No.88]

@Giles:

@No.88:

Q. Can you make it with a traditional collar as opposed to the mandarin type?

Everything is possible, but I'd prefer not to do that, and just point you in the direction of a black GK….

NB'd G.
I was all over that brown GK, then bam! A whack to the solar-plexus, the J100 sticks its napper above the parapet! Decisions, decisions.  :-\

Cheers.

@Giles:

Late next week or the week after, we should see a Natural Essex Sample jacket.  Soon thereafter, the red….

Very curious to see this one.

[Giles]

If you are not careful, I'll be wearing it in Portland…..

The length of this one is much better then the length of the last prototype.

Another contender for the free J-100 slot in my closet. I would prefere sleeve gussets though. I allways wear my sleeve zips open and would hate to expose my forearms all the time. 

[mclaincausey]

I'm a gusset guy too, but I love the contrast. So just make the gussets out of the red leather eh?

[Giles]

You'll need to look somewhere else then I am afraid.  This one comes with no gussets…...

Would the Essex be too far off from this?

[zatenm]

^ this looks waxed though

[Giles]

^ That's veg tanned horse…...

Natural Essex is on the right....

I hear ya @Finn666 [emoji1] Too many killer configurations to choose from…  G is not making it easy either - Can't wait to see the other samples made!

[Giles]

Essex will be complete this week….

Super light in colour.. Seriously very interesting. Reminds me of the MF campus jacket.. I'm assuming this will age and darken quite rapidly with wear like tan hides usually do?
