      So the best fit would be the 17mm, but I think (i am out the country) the snaps installed on the pale riders' male side are the smaller set. We would need to check out the feasibility of swapping them all out, but in theory, it would cost:

              Some more shots with the much neglected Pale Rider. Procrastinating in the home office 🙂
              Still struggling with slightly tight chest and shoulders, and effects on the upper snap. Also: my initial ill advised soaking adventure left the placket quite wavy, and the "hunch" on the back below the collar never fully settled.
              Anyway.. still a beauty 🙂

                  @indigostiff, @Alex is correct, we suggest using the 17mm snap for the Pale Rider if you're interested.

                  The male studs on the PR are slightly smaller than GAH snaps, so we may need to trim a little off the male stud to make it fit. However, given that the leather is quite thick, it might be okay to put it on directly. Our main concern is with the top collar snap, as that part is thicker than the rest of the shirt, but we are going to look into this and let you know.

                  if you do have any questions or queries, feel free to message me or Graham. We're here to help.

                      Yo! So three weeks into wearing this goblin wizard of a shirt, and it’s changing colour from being in the sun and what not. Fits like a fish in water. What are your thoughts on mustang oil or something? Or just let it rip? 🤓 Take care

                        @denim-dawg I really like what’s happening naturally with this shirt,and my vote would be for you to continue doing what you’re doing. I especially like the unevenness of the color as it’s exposed to the elements. You can always apply a conditioner,but once you do,you can’t un-ring the proverbial bell.

                          Yours is the new leather right? It looks more hydrated and supple compared to what I recall the old leather feeling like when I got to try it on in Hamburg. That one felt almost dry and velvety and really thirsty.

                          Yours is looking good and id leave it be unless you see something that needs moisture to prevent cracking or whatever.

                            @denim-dawg Don't touch it! Yours is the "new version" - softer, with a slight sheen to it. The older ones are slightly sueded and less uniform in their appearance - perhaps why people were so quick to treat them.

                            I would keep it wild.

                              @denim-dawg my vote is keep it natty style!! Love how the natural veg ages untreated. Sometimes wish I never treated my bareback. But like mentioned, mine was the older velvety feeling leather. It seamed thirsty.

                              In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

                                  @denim-dawg is wearing the new sample I think @yannis ! So the one you mostly see here won't come back sadly.

                                      @Jett129 That is such good advice!! Once you go conditioner you cannot go back. Appreciate you taking the time. Yes, the colours are positively reacting differently.. will look more and more like an animal as it progresses with the elements. Best wishes!!

                                        @pechelman Yessir! This is the new leather, the sample. It does not scream for lotion or thirst, but more to be worn continuously. Good point with cracking - do not feel that is necessary at this point. The inside is also really smooth and feels great with just a t-shirt underneath. Even though.. the wabash is the preferred companion. Thank you - I will keep going au natural until further notice! Cheers

True - slight sheen to it, not sueded. Joking aside, I go with your advice and let it be free and wild and .. young.. haha Cheers

It is only 26 days in and already it is like a chameleon, adding colour to whatever it touches. Just wore the 526J that I have been saving and just after an hour there is indigo on it - what an adventure! Your Bareback is INSANE!! Dig it!!! Keep posting!! It is such good fun to watch and follow the different journeys. Wish you a wonderful day, good man ❤
