I have a long leather coat .It is so heavy to wear and I am thinking of cutting it off and making a short jacket.Do you think this would work on this?

The glue works but avoid glue on area that is not being glued. And need to apply pressure to part being glued together until dry. Unlike rubber glue for shoe or wet suit, apply on parts to be glued separately and let dry the press the two together for very strong bond. hope this help .

Long coat does seem to matter. I just trim the coat where the prongs of the bark collar go. That works for my dog.

The only worry I would have would be thread different, color match. If you can go all the way around you coat that would help. Remember this is for heavy duty stuff. To be honest for no more than it cost and you got skills go for it.

I'm not sure if this item would work on your wool coat. I bought it to use in my car because of the particular kind of material of the seats! It does work in my car but I am not sure how it would work on wool! It may work fine, but I really am not sure- sorry I couldnt be more help

I found this to be really weak. The velcro works loose very easily, so I would say 'no, probably not'. Try to find a traditional leather one.

I only used it on leather, however, I feel it would work. It is like a pliable glue. I added to the mix a little leather paint to the glue, it matched the leather.

In my opinion, no. Mink oil softens leather, which, in your case, isn't a good thing because the jacket is already aged. You might better try one of the leather restoration products from Lexol. They come in sprays and rub-on creams. I use it on an old leather couch once a year and it helps add some luster.

I have not had occasion to use it to sew patches on a leather jacket. I have a heavy duty Singer electric machine, and have not found anything the Janome can't match. You would need a strong needle and a good treadle cabinet and belt. Sorry I'm not of more help.

I'm sorrt, but I have no idea about how it would work with felted wool as I've only used on leather with thicknesses varying from relatively paper thin to typical belt thickness and it punched cleanly through all of it with now tearing.

It may be a little tight depending on the jacket but I think it would probably work.

Yes, it definitely should. I worked an event as a promo model and was so impressed with the product that I got some for myself. If you are going to use it primarily on black leather gloves, I recommend the black leather formula (because that formula is made specifically for leather and works spectacularly!) If you use the original formula on the leather, you'll want to do several coats. :)

Yes! Definitely will work with heavy winter coats. (Trust me, we hang our Minnesota winter coats on them.)

After speaking with my wife, she said yes it would work fine. The only reason she has not been using it because she has had jackets on.

I think you'd be pushing it cuz it doesn't fit that we'll on mine length wise. But, mine is leather. I'd never recommend this for leather.

Yes. It covered a large area of my ripped leather jacket. But it can be trmed or cut down into smaller pieces.

although the bottle I purchased from Amazon was broken during shipment, I have used this product before (and what was left in my old bottle I just used to clean cat food from my leather purse). I find it comparable to what any shoe or coat salesperson would try to sell you (in smaller bottles for higher prices) and see no reason why it wouldn't work on a leather jacket - but would advise trying it on an inside test area to be sure it is color fast... it goes on wet, thus darkening the surfaces initially, but usually dries true to color... good luck

In response to your question: This jackets are patterned and made extreamly well, because they are made of real cow hide leather they have NO GIVE at all, you may have a problem with the arm pits and will not be able to zip it up, order the largest they and see how it ware's on you, the hoody would be out. Return it if it dosent fit on you well, you may want to ask Milwaukee to. I am a slender person so my perspective will be diffrent. Hope it that help. Also ware the hoodie you will be using when you tryit. From the comments of larger men it may work.
