@Shmooty fantastic!!

Such a beauty, have quite a lot of leather jackets, but that one is one of my favorite now, quite impressive.

These photos are so great. It was difficult for me to pass the immediate delivery of this jacket. Today I approved the order for my custom Simmons Bilt. I'll have it in 8 weeks or so.. you know.. summertime lol. Brown smooth mustang with olive contrast stitching. +2" sleeves and body.

Thanks man, let's see what they'll do for you.
To be honest I was skeptical about Simmons Bilt leather jackets, never thought of buying, but that one is something, love the color, leather. So ordered another, brown one, IHSB-SAV-BRN in XL, hope for the same fit. Will definitely grab the Pale Rider soon.

I did the same, i was so stunned by the quality of construction and the overall feel of it that i snagged an other one! The black pacific deerskin from the IH SB colab.
It's a very different feel, but i love it too, will post some pic in the respective thread this weekend.
My two SB jackets are made by Moira, and the stitching is impeccable, i can't find anything wonky.

Anyone planning on using mustang paste on their jacket? It’s darkening up nicely on its own - will be curious how it looks after a couple months.

Wow, great looking jacket guys. And it will just get better and better I suspect.

Quick update on the jacket - patina develops fast on this one.

[Mizmazzle]

@concretor oh wow! That’s cool to see. Looks like the new leather also takes on a bit of that familiar peach colored tone like the OG leather.

[Buckeye]

Is it just me, or did this one smell absolutely terrible coming out of the bag?

[concretor]

@Buckeye Did not notice anything unusual on mine, but my wife did not like the smell.

Mine smelled/smells like leather. I like it. That said, my IHJ-64-BLK barely has a scent (chrome tanning vs ?)
