So, a thrift shop is having a 50% off sale, and I picked up this old bomber jacket for $10 (shown mid-way through removal of the lining and trim). Different patina all over, very cool. My plan was to give it a try and make some straps, so thanks for the inspiration. I assumed that the jacket leather will be thick enough for straps.
@Duracuir1 , have you ever used jacket leather? Otherwise, I’ll end up making some leather pocket watch thongs and unneeded watch rolls, which would be fun too
