Red pleather. Yipes. That's all I have to say...

The jacket had lots of overstitching around the edge (Which I had to do all by hand because I couldn't machine-sew on the surface of the pleather.) I lined the jacket with a cotton-y fabric so it wouldn't feel uncomfortable against the skin. The pockets in the front are purely decorative.

The shorts and leggings were also of red pleather. (At least I didn't have to overstitch those...)

I'm fairly pleased with how the gloves came out. I took an existing pair of red pleather gloves, carved away some of the fabric, and added the inset panel, laces, and knuckle studs.

The boots were especially challenging, as I had to buy an existing pair of boots, remove the soles, and then build the new boots on top of them. Yowza.
