Looks like USW has produced a Bison Indy again this year.

I really liked the bison jacket I got a few years ago when they were first offered.

This was, by far, my favorite Legend jacket.

Yep, the only reason I sold mine was for the G&B goat I got from you.

Tetonka! For $684, I don't want the whole buffalo just the jacket. :P

Considering other companies sell comparable American bison leather jackets from $995 to $1200, and these are U.S. made by Schott, it's not a bad price at all. :-k

I haven't checked if they're included, but I just got an email from US Wings for a Customer Apparition Sale. SPOOKY!

M has a great point...the Orvis Bison jacket is 1K...it's not an easy leather to get.

Easier than the Roo hide...which is breaking in nicely, by the way, but the bison is a nice balance of cowhide characteristics and the toughness of denser leather. Very grainy. Pretty cool stuff!

Don't you mean 'appreciation'? :-k

Then again, if they're sending 'apparitions', that WOULD be 'spooky'.

They corrected it and sent out a revised copy. The curse of 'auto correct' strikes again, and no one caught it.

They thanked everyone for helping them out.

I'm sure Canyon would have been miffed when she had to clean the house again after you exploded, though. :-k :CR:
