Matt, whenever I get a jacket in Victory I’m going to place my full trust in you and pay you to do exactly to it what you did to that ANJ3. It sounds abusive but you absolutely cannot argue with the results.
I made this zipper fob out of a sample of liberty hide Andy sent me. This is dark seal. I was hoping my victory hide jacket would have worn in with the red or russet color coming through.

This is a piece of my cut of sleeve victory hide leather David sent me when he altered my sleeves. I did the same thing to both the scrap piece and the zipper fob. You can see the difference.

Nice work J!!
I sent Goodwear an email a long time ago and never got any reply at all...Just send an email to John and ask him. So far John answered all my queries in the best and fastest possible manner.
I think everyone really meant: Jeeremiah the magical leather meister Been following your progress this whole time and "wow" is the proper expression when I look at the comparison between before and after!I submitted this pic along with the ones I uploaded to imgur to Andy via the BK email.

I suppose it's 'cause BK's Victory HH is much thicker than WarHH from Eastman and moreover Victory's structure looks noticeably more spongy - so, it just absorbs more waxes and that's why it fades its smell a bit faster after wax treatment.The BK seems to absorb more petrol smell than the ELC, I wonder why?
