This is a first test model of a early 1941 Version 3 redskin B-3 jacket. The pattern from this era had fewer panels than the
1942-built jackets. The pattern is very comfortable in the right size, and this sheepskin has good drape, and isn't too
stiff. The sheepskin was colored by us, using correct leather dye and clear-coat finishing. The sunlight
photograph shows the color of the sheepskin and its fur best. The fur is definitely a cream yellow shade.
The jacket would fit someone in the dimensions below very well. The lower torso could open more if needed, too. It's
a heavy jacket, weighing 7 lbs. 11 oz. in a 12"x12"x12" box.
The horsehide trim is by Horween, and aniline dye russet. The cowhide belts are quite thick.
The jacket would ideally fit someone in the range of 5'11" to 6'2" with a chest of 41-43", and a weight of about 190-210 pounds.
