    i'm pretty sure thats not the horse leather jacket. i agree with chinorlz that that is a different leather, possibly piggy.

    the horse leather which can be found here looks much nicer.

      y'all could very well be correct, as the grain looks more like pig than what I'm used to seeing of horse. But on the same note, I've never handled pig that looks as beefy as that.

      either way, pig or horse or whatever else it may be, its a gorgeous jacket, classic.

        sorry i never really looked at the photos simply because it wasn't my size, i had always assumed these jackets were produce in horse or heavy calf/cow. But looking at the pics its clearly pig skin which tbh i love, m.a+ used it in some of his early collections and the grain just appeals to me when it comes to pork belly.
        Like what other animals said its a great jacket for a great price, someone should have snapped up the BIN.

          You know what I think you're right. That looks different to any CD leather shirt I've seen. Explains the price I guess...

                      Agreed, I'm guessing we both saw it the same place (RO Miami?). It's very nice, the fabric is quite special in person. Also, those SS15 trench coats are looking goooood.

                          Always love that digital stitchwork, but that matching bag definitely looks like a giant scrotum hahaha

                            Ha, I even read it multiple times to make sure I wasn't misunderstanding, but didn't mrbeuys say he has both? So he didn't make a choice . Anyway, I liked how stiff and plasticky the material was to really hold its egg-y shape. I mean, c'mon:

                              Yeah, misread it myself. As a matter of fact, I had the silk bomber reserved for me and was going to pick it up yesterday, then decided against it. I have too many already.
