Nice guide to Wested's leather types
Looks like Rebecca has put a lot of effort into this guide and her photography is getting better and better:

Wonderful addition to their site. They've needed this for a while now. The pdf is very useful too.

Too bad they don't have pictures of what the undertones look like for each different hide

Agreed, but I bet most of their customers don't do what we do to brand new jackets!

I'd venture to say most of the customers wear them. I was more talking about the freakshow of sandpaper, chemicals, files, and general horror so many Indy fans subject a brand new jacket to by "distressing" them.

Great instructional on the leathers. I think I will break mne in naturally.

I'm amongst the guilty parties here for sure! I messed with 2 Wings jackets and some other gear.

I wouldn't mind seeing samples of the dark distressed lambstouch hide - that definitely peeks my interest!
