      @T4920 Do you know the difference between Blattwerk and the original leather? I wouldn't mind an education on the difference between them if you do know.

        @chadstone30 I'm no leather expert, but it looks a lot softer and more mailable. Also has a more prounced grain and appears to be a lighter colour when new.

        Check out the Pale Rider thread and compare earlier versions of the shirt with the one currently available.

        I think it was changed due to consistency issues with the old leather if I remember correctly.

          @T4920 is correct in that the original Italian horsehide was not consistent enough, so the Blattwerk was the best alternative we had at the time (for the pale rider). We have since found another leather, which we'll release the details of when we're ready

          The devil is in the detail..

              I think of this jacket often. I have so many jackets. But this jacket, this would be the last jacket.

                @Larkens Is this the new or old leather? It's just lovely.

                    @indigostiff The only ones that exist not in the 'old' leather are the two samples I am selling now

                      What sizes are the samples, please? What's the price? Or have they already been claimed?
