Post by FlameoftheWest »

Has anyone purchased and taken pics of a TN Raiders I in Goat with some distressing?

I think someone said they ordered one but if they have it now they haven't yet posted photos that I've seen here.

Have you talked to Tony about this leather?

Thanks Holt, I forgot about Han's being Goat. I think someone else has ordered a distressed Goat one too.

My goat did not come distressed. There is so many shade variations in the hide that it looks distressed naturally. No need for sandpaper here, this goat needs to age. I have swore off artificial distressing in favor of wear and fullers earth. Of course Tony does what he does first as far as the CS jhackets goes.

He distresses the Indy 1 as you request light, medium etc......does a great job with it .........just gives it that broken in look, very natural

Actually I have ordered Tony a Riders in goat and asked him to distress it. I will post you some pics once I receive it. I am sure it will be a great jacket.

Thanks you everyone for the responses, I will be ordering one in goat as soon as I can get all of my measurements correct and make some time to call Tony. I think the undistressed looks great, but I just wanna see both before I order it. Once again, Thank You.

Is Tony's goat darker or lighter than Wested's goat or G&B's goat?

I haven't seen it in person but Han says his is darker than it shows in the photos. It also may not be the only Goat hide TN has available
