Elk leather…never handled one. Any info on how thick it is? We usually hear about 1.2 mm horsehide jackets.

[Alex]

No info on the elk, because what we had was too thick so we are finding a thinner one. Once we know, we will tell people what it is. The other three are not elk, sorry, my post could have been clearer. I will edit it..

@Alex Wow this is so good guys !!!! If you need someone to sample it for you

Those OD's are just wonderful looking...

What did they start out as?

Has the stitching been re-done (I note that the blue and read threads really pop), or is it that the threads don't take the dye as well as the cotton?

No, they have literally just been dipped in black dye!

The constructional threads are polycotton. Polyester does not take the dye…..

SAX for me! Love that contrast stitching

[Nik]

Damn @Alex lots of heat here.

[AdamC]

Red or sax for me

Sax 🥰

@Alex @Giles I thought so. It's left a really cool contrast stitching effect. Hard to decide which I like more, the red or the blue... I'm leaning towards the red as I have a lot of stuff in different shades of blue already.

Love these darkies! Amazed at how the yellow threads disappear more than any other color with the ODying. Navy crazy check my fave.
