Hey all I started a bit on distressing my Raiders Wested goatskin jacket today with sandpaper.I didn't want to go all overboard so I just did the seams on it for now.It might be a bit hard to see on the pictures

Cool project!

Looks good. Going slow is the key.

Thanks guys I did some more distressing and this is how it looks now

A question will dying the distressed parts with a lighter brown dye look good? As it is now they distressed parts are a bit grey and lifeless.

Quite a few people on here had great results with dye. My Raiders Hero jacket in washed lambskin also had grey undertones and I used Fiebing‘s dark brown leather dye on it and am much happier with the color now.

Awesome I'm trying that then

That dye worked great on a few of my items as well.
