I saw this jacket and it has a color I would like in an Indiana Jones jacket (ONE of the ones I buy of course, out of a hundred). Have you seen this color in any Indiana Jones jackets, particularly from Wested?

Has anyone seen an Indy jacket in this color?

Looks a bit darker than the shrunken lamb and lighter than the goat...

I had an old (2000-ish) Wested that was close to that color.

Not Indy jackets...but, I've seen some Belstaff jackets in that color palate.

No, it's not glossy or shinny, it has kind of a... "Matte shine"...
But out of all the skins I have it is the smoothest to touch. I would say it is kind of 'velvety' compared to goat or horsehide.
This being said... It is my least favourite leather. The off the rack raiders goatskin is the one I like most. When I got it it ripped in a few places and really annoyed me. Since then I treated it with Pecard's twice and have had no more issues. I think the leather was just really dry.
