Hawknose Bill Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 My friend wishes to sell this pair of pants and matching jacket. Made by a company called Santa Fe Leather Co. in the 1970's, the items are made of cream deerskin and is butter-soft. In the closeups, you can see the embossed horses on the back yoke of the jacket. Size of the pants is: 31" waist, 30" inseam; size of the jacket is 38. here is a link to the photos: https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=351ac71ba6710f56&sc=photos&id=351AC71BA6710F56%21440 My friend is asking $400.00 for the both of them, but says he will entertain any reasonable offer. If interested, e-mail him directly at kip1958@gmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard the leather keeps the moisture in longer and make you feel cooler.I've been wanting to try it. Nancy "fi-nancy" hasn't allowed me to do so.

Nancy "fi-nancy" hasn't allowed me to do so. I do a lot of 18th century reenacting and I have a deerskin frock coat that I wear, along with deerskin leggings and moccasins. admittedly, they're hot on an Indiana summer day (with a zillion percent humidity), but not as hot as you would think - especially in the southwest, where the humidty isn't suffocating. Cowhide would kill you. Deerskin "breathes." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what it does but I wore a leather shirt in southern cal and in colorado in the summer, it sounds strange but it wasnt that hot .... keeps ya kewl in the summer and warm in the winter .... strange... or maybe its just me and my imagination .... i did get an awful lot of funny looks from people thinking i was crazy i reckon..

Cpt Dan Blodgett, SASS #75655 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 could have worn them in High School and for a brief time in 83. Now I need a much larger deer to make pants from, but smaller than a couple of years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
