IHSB-EXT-NAT - Iron Heart x Simmons Bilt Natural Horsehide Type III Jacket

[Chap]

Nickel (plated)/Copper/Brass?

Brass hardware in our kitchen… the left one is used regularly, the right one seldom. Brass has probably the best aging ability

[Anesthetist]

Brass would look better in the long run IMO.

I originally thoght brass, but I am persuaded that Nickel will look great with some serious patina…..

[Giles]

But swapping out tack buttons is a pimpable possibility….

I think the potential contrast with nickel as the jacket darkens is what does it for me.

[Anesthetist]

Looking at both I think that there isnt a wrong choice tbh.

Just a thought…Can/could you do a treated copper so it turns Blue/Green?

[Giles]

Nope

@Giles:

Made with thinner horsehide that the bareback, this is a thing of utmost beauty.

How much thinner, out of curiosity?

[Giles]

I knew someone would ask 

I asked for it to be thinner, but did not specify and was not told.

I will find out.

You know my main purpose on the forum is to ask annoying questions…

Came across this thread earlier today and had to take a cold shower. Don’t know what to say anymore. Absolutely stellar.

[Jett129]

As far as the snaps go there’s no way you could fuck this up.

[Dstauffer]

Will this be a similar preorder process as the big buck where specific measurements will be taken?

[Giles]

Yessir

[Dstauffer]

Nickel buttons (potentially), type III, horsehide, iron heart….I’m fecking in!

[Giles]

Nickel buttons it is…
