leather jackets/lost worlds

[S. Goldman]

Does anyone have experience with products from Lost Worlds? They make some big claims about their cut and quality--which I would very much like to be true. At the moment, I'm considering ordering one of their "Rigger" models in russet cowhide, with a knit collar. Just the thing, I hope, for what we call spring in New England.

it doesn't look very good, looks like mid use jackets.

Hi SG;

Go for Aero Leather, they are one of the few people I know who will make leather stuff to measure & their range is vast.

I have owned a couple of them & their front quarter horsehide jackets feel like they are bulletproof.

They also have a US operation, there is a link on their front page.

i like them very much, the horsehair car coats are very heavy but he will special order in order leathers and I like. They look better on men with shoulders and arms that are not heavy.
Frankly, they look like what "ihitters" wear. strong, long wearing and sturdy.
