Hello Everyone,
I'm thinking of getting a civvi jacket and like their styles. I have a very early BK Vintage Horse before they went Victory, and also have a victory Horse which I like quite a lot but not at the current price, (its being discontinued now anyway) So, have 2 questions about Bill Kelso hides:
1) Has anyone had experience with their Maltese goatskin the later examples the better, love to hear what you think in comparison say to a vintage ww2 era goat hide
2) I bought my wife a liberty horse jacket, and really like the feel, texture and the way it ages. It does take a bit of time to break in, she still thinks its a bit stiff, but its way thicker than modern consumer leather, which these days is mainly pig. Like to know what you think in comparison to Goodwears Shinki, or Eastmans warhorse.
Thanks Matt
