Ton, are those tones really black?? How does it get that, because I know the hide is a light brown colour underneath. It's seriously beautiful. I don't think there's nicer leather in the world.

In some places the patina has gone quite dark, like a super ripe grape, while in others, like that collar fold, it's quite light. I would say overall the jacket is slightly darker than when new and very much so in some spots...

I am leaning towards russet Vincenza at the moment...all the images Ive seen of it not least of which is Radz108's stunning Aero Seven make me think it will be a good choice in the long run.

Put in my order! Went with russet vincenza, "irvin" collar with a couple of "custom" features! I hope it looks "aviation" more than "motorcycle" or worse yet "fashion mall"...
Fingers crossed.

It sounds like it will be an awesome Bootlegger, and I don't think anyone will mistake it for a mall jacket either!

Sounds neat! Hope to see photos when it arrives...
Did you go for the D pocket?

Not the D pocket as i wanted to keep the hand warmer pockets but i added the patch/coin pocket like yours and a chin strap instead of the button hole.

Ah... now it makes sense.. You decided not to go with the fleece collar? Or is it detachable?

Aero wouldn't do the detachable collar (for the B.L. collar) so I bought some sheepskin and a piece of Vincenza and am working on having it made elsewhere.

Dont forget they have Cordovan Vicenza now....
...D'oh, didn't see the date of the original post and wrote this before I realised you had already received the jacket.
