The pattern I used is Butterick 5616. The fabric is faux alligator print suede. The color is similar to a dark- wash denim with light and dark variations.
.This pattern is super easy. There was a ton of top stitching,but that's the norm for this type of jacket. I like using this type of button. All it takes is a hammer and a hard surface. No hand sewing--YIPPEE.
Here is the back.
I will definitely use this pattern again. I can see it in a few different types of prints or a bright solid with some machine embroidery. There are a lot of possibilities.
