again, sheen is gone, the brown is now more richer looking, and like my other jackets, it drapes a little better

I think for your idea, you need a blue underdye base (like a brighter blue, not navy I guess, depending on the top finish that will erode away) with some sort of black finish on top, I don't know exactly how it's done all the ways but it's either chromed, struck through with dye, or painted on top essentially. The latter always looks cheap.
It's not impossible, but the conventional problem is, the huge vats used for coloring leathers require you process metric tons of leather in one color, so you'd need to make like 500 more jackets in exactly the same leather if you are ever gonna get one.
I have ideas about getting around that but I don't really have access to a base layer leather I'd want to use for something like that, so it wouldn't work. I am gonna go all over Japan starting next month looking for new materials though.
How heavy is this thing? Has anyone seen it in person? I've looking for something that could stop a tank, or a pitbull biting through the arm. Incarnation is typcially much heavier/tougher than other designer leathers, but I haven't seen/felt, this particular model. Of course, I may just get the Jeanshop jacket and get them to custom overdye in for me.
We'll see.
if you can post a fuckin picture which is somewhat a true representation of the color irl, instead of highly photoshopped ****, then i might be able to give you an informed answer,
from what i can barely see, and not knowing what your complexion, hair, and eye color, i would say go for whatever the color is in the first pic
OK
I didnt see it in person but it is horsehide, so I guess would be it is not very thick. At least not as thick as calf models.
i'll suck you clean if you give me the name of this jacket and where I can get it.
(slight ****)
since malakas seems to be ignoring everybody asking these questions. his jackets are all custom made replicas of julius jackets IIRC. pretty sure he said the brown pants were an australian levis model.
