In 2011 we opened our new and much larger Leather Shop in San Diego. We currently make about half of our products right here in San Diego, CA USA. What is not made in the US is handmade in our small speciality leathershop in Mexico. Nothing is made overseas, actually nothing is made outside of North America. Check the MADE IN USA section for all our San Diego made products.

We will shorten the sleeves on your Coronado jacket at no additional charge (only $15. return s/h). Once this alteration is made, the jacket is non-returnable. We recommend that you order the jacket in a standard size with no alterations. Make sure the body size, color and style works for you, then return the jacket back to us with $15. (s/h) and the total inches you need removed from the jacket. Please error on the longer side, as leather jacket sleeves will shrink due to normal break-in after months of use. We will adjust the sleeves to your specifications and return the garment to you UPS or FDEEX Insured. Sleeve alterations can be made for the life of the garment. Sometimes it makes sense to allow the normal break-in time to occur prior to returning the jacket for alterations.

Chest Measurement should be taken around the fullest part, just under the arms and across the shoulder blades. Do not hold the tape tightly, it should freely rotate without dropping. Sleeve With your arms at your side, measure from the nape of the neck (base of neck) across to the end of your shoulder, then down to your wrist. Measurement should resemble an upside-down L.

The actual size of our vests will be 2” larger than the labeled size. For example, a size 44 vest will measure 46” in circumference. Coronado jackets are about 4-5” larger than the labeled size. This is pretty standard for US sizing. Typically you would order at or one 1” larger than your upper chest measurement (even numbers only). When choosing your size, consider how you want your vest or jacket to fit and what you would typically wear under the garment. See our Men’s Outerwear Sizing Chart when placing your order.

This will depend a lot on the type of firearm you are carrying. Most firearms will not show any printing or bulge. In some cases it may not completely prevent it, but it will minimize it quite a bit. Coronado concealment vests are best suited for compact to midsize firearms or full-size, but narrow frame semi-autos such as a Colt Government model. Coronado concealment jackets and coats are will comfortably fit a full-size semi-auto or 3" revolver. See the detailed jacket illustration on the Outerwear homepage for more info.

No. Although concealed-carry products are our specilty, we do make some vests, jackets and bags without concealed-carry pockets. Inquire by email or phone if you are looking for something without concealed-carry pockets. Remember that even if you do not plan on using the product for concealed-carry, the features are 100% functional as hidden pockets for money, jewelry or whatever you would like to carry.

No. All Coronado Outerwear products are built with an identical holster pocket on both sides. We recommend you use the opposite pocket to carry a spare magazine, wallet, keys, etc. This will help to distribute the weight of the handgun.

American Bison leather is truly unique and very much an exotic leather. Typically these leathers cost us about 75-100% more than our cowhide leathers. In addition to their premium cost, the hides are naturally more scarred and marked than most leathers. This creates more cutting waste thus increasing our costs even more.

No. This is confusing and sometimes commonly and often intentionally misleading by companies. The American Bison is commonly referred to as the American Buffalo or just Buffalo. The only true "Buffalo" is the Asian Water Buffalo. These are not directly related to the American Bison and water buffalo hides bear no real resemblence to American Bison hides. It is widely used as an inexpensive, thinner leather in Asia and other parts of Europe. Make sure that you are buying Genuine American Bison leather.

We are working on having a complete "Leather Page" on our site soon. This will compare our leathers and their characteristics. We don't use any low-end or cheap leather, so you really cannot go wrong with anything you buy from us. It just depends on what you are looking for in your leather.

Bison is known as America's Original Leather, dating back thousands of years. They have forged a mark in American history and truly represent the unbridled freedom of the American West. The tensile strength is stronger than cow, lamb, calf and most leathers. The grain and texture is bold, pronounced and distinctive with larger, natural pebbling and wrinkling. There really is no other leather like American Bison.

The firearm pocket is designed to effectively conceal without the bulk that a holster may create. Instead of the rear pocket zipping all the way down and around as with our Stealth Pac, the zipper actually opens about 3/4 of the way down. When the pull-tab is pulled outward, the front face opens just enough for your hand to slide in but not enough for the weapon to fall out.
