    Looks awesome. How are the sleeves with the gusset zipped up? Would be cool to see more detail of the leather in outdoor light.

      @Nik Ill get some outdoor pics. Ive not zipped them up yet and I will probably just wear them unzipped. How's yours getting on?! Did the sleeves ride up at all?

        This has had me checking the SB website..

        £575 for the jacket + £75 the natural horsehide, £650 total? No hidden costs assuming your not getting a custom pattern made?

          @T4920 yes so that would be basic price for off the peg size. Process started with me sending all my measurements and of good fitting items. Deb then recommended a size 38 as the base pattern. From there I had 3 adjustments, chest was widened, shoulders altered and I had half an inch off the length. Those 3 alterations were an additional £40.

          I then added a 2 way brass zipper and an extra inside pocket and a different lining, I went with olive. Total for that was about an extra £70.

          Me and debs did have probably a good 20-30 emails going through measurements.

          Fantastic service.

            @jiminstitches sounds amazing! Thanks for the info, I'll check then out for sure in the future.

            As has been said by others, yours looks perfect!

            SB should have you on commission...

                    Holy Moly @Nik … i was just going through the Simmons Bilt archive and your pictures jumped right out at me. That is one handsome horse! Has it aged well?

                          Who knew SB would be as addictive as IH?…this is my second, with a third in production.

                              Super excited to get mine in. Ordered the SB V2 in mustang brown. I was about to order another Aero and a package of leather samples arrived in my mailbox all the way from Scotland. Had to honor that. Very impressed. It took a long time so I forgot I'd requested them. The top sample of pic 2 was the winner. Debs is awesome to deal with even though she seems to have her hands full!

                                Can anyone tell me when they were invoiced for the leather selection? I have not been and it's been over a month since I've been in the production queue. Thanks.

                                  Hi @CosmoSix5 … looks like we’re in roughly the same time-frame. I think im about five weeks in. I asked Debs that very question, and she was pretty relaxed about the payment. Either request an invoice or just wait ‘till it’s ready to ship and she’ll invoice you then. Hope that helps. P.S. nice leather choice! I found it quite overwhelming when the samples arrived… but went for the highly regarded (by this forum anyway) Blattwerk. I can’t wait to see the results.

                                  Mahalo!

                                    @NorvilleRogers I loved the feel of the blattwerk for sure. I wanted something more rugged though. It was so soft!
