The original Coopers were described as barrier distressed cowhide.
THis sounds quite a heavy leather, which it is. But it is just as soft as anything.
I still think this type hangs on you better than the lambskin appears.
If anyone wants a really rough jacket they can do anything in without worrying about ruining a Wested, then this is the one.
Does that not work out cheaper than a wested or am I wrong?
