Hi,
I built myself a "Grizzly" jacket on the basis of an Old Highwayman in steerhide. I just added sheepskin on the front of the jacket.
Really a big work but I am satisfied with the result. I like it, but my wife finds that it is bizarre... :roll:

I was inspired by models photos which I found on Google.

I made only the front, I did not touch the back. Of what do you think of it?

Good work, I think Aero makes one, yes a bit strange, but beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

Very nice work! Yes, women seem to have an adverse reaction to these type of jackets. I'm not sure why though; it's a timeless design in my mind.

Nice piece of craftsmanship and a classic design, but I must confess that I have a blind spot where these are concerned.

Thank you very much! :D
It is a model difficult to wear but so original with an incredible look.
I believe that I should cut obliquely instead of putting some wool to at the top of the shoulder.
As on this model:
