Thanks for the insight. Why goat over lamb?

Drew, I'm gearing up for a BCDR is black calf suede.

Wondering what the texture of the suede is like... does it lean more toward rough out or velvet? What's the thickness?

Thread Starter 
lamb suede is velvet-y, and the cow suede is hairer and rougher. Stylistically I think the materials match their respective styles best. Personally though, not really a fan of black suede. It's not bad but I'd sooner get black leather and then a colored suede, like dark whiskey or the diesel blue I'm about to release (you've seen it before though, as I pointed it out in lamb suede version in a pic)

Just checked out the tumblr page, is calf leather not available/recommended for the new BCDR? Calf suede is tempting, but I've been eyeing the navy calf too...

Those are nice pics but that lighting is pretty specific. I'd like to see it under natural light, too.

EDIT: Also looking forward to pics of diesel blue suede....

Here we go with some price changes, pricelist 1/11/2013 (as always, subject to change due to unexpected currency fluctuations and commodity line increases)

A little complicated in text, pay attention only to the materials that interest you, for simplification:

All lamb leather jackets in black lamb: 780 ($45 increase over 2011 pricing)

For Bombers, and CWU, brown is also $780. For all others (rider's style jackets) - please add $50 so that we may dye zipper taping to match. All colors except for black, brown is a dye for fee color in rider's jackets.

All goatskin, $820 (black) - All Rider's, and Bombers. Brown extra, if not a Bomber/CWU style.

Heavy calf suede: only available on Rider's jackets, $780

Calfskin: Only available on Rider's jackets 820, black (colors extra again, for zipper dying)

Lamb suede only available on T-1 and T-3. $780

Shirt and Trousers currently on hold (we ship extant orders and then further orders are on hold, impending seasonal break for those two makers)

I've decided that the Baseball is going to be discontinued. 1/18/13 deadline for those.


Discontinued materials: ivory lamb. Some of the Italian calfskins are sold out.

I will come with a color chart a little bit later. I will try for accuracy but bear with me, as a computer can't ever display the depth or multi-tonality of dyed leather or suedes.
Here's a sample of what double-needle diamond quilt looks like , for reference: (ignore coloration, iPhone 3GS photo)
