@PJS You are welcome. Here is another article discussing leather grades: https://www.heddels.com/2014/06/overview-guide-leather-grades/
There is quite a bit of information to work through, but all are essential to understanding some of the terminology used.

This IHJ-129-BRN is "premium vegetable tanned horsehide" that has been "pigment dyed brown - meaning that once the pigment fades out, the natural leather will begin to show underneath."

@goosehd got it, like a tea core

THIS.IS.AMAZING.
It is a jacket out of this world - that horsehide is something else. Buttery soft right from the start. The colour is beautiful, I was a little hesitant to get a brown leather jacket first.
I think I nailed the fit with my (shirt size) XXL. Sleeve length is spot on, shoulders and chest, too. Waist feels a little restrictive when zipped up, but not too bad.

@tody ordered one as well during the sale (yet to arrive because I was 1 of the 100 who's order also included a hem job). I can only hope mine fits half as well as yours. fan-freaking-tastic

@flannel-slut …but are you the one who ordered 30 hem jobs?

@goosehd hahaha I truly wish I was
