Hi fine folks,

Does anyone have any images of worn in, aged Vicenza leather from Aero? I just want to see what type of character it exhibits compared to something like WarHorse leather from Eastman.

Thx!

Vicenza's pretty new still, but maybe there's a few owners who wear the hell out of theirs daily... I've never handled it in person. Guess we'll see...

This guy wore the hell out of one on a cross-country motorcycle trip (pics from his blog and from Thurston Bros InstaGram, respectively).

Wow! Flashes' 'seal' A-2 looks russet. Seriously, that's more russet than both of my russet Aero A-2s. Did it start off darker, and all the seal topcoat has worn off?

When I originally purchased my seal vicenza 30s half belt try on jacket, I told Carrie it was a beautiful shade of russet. Lol

I think it looks very russet also. Maybe we should start a thread about what is Seal and what is Russet? o_O
My AVI LTHR Seal Bronco, could almost be said to be a darker russet/ lighter Seal, depending on prevailing light conditions and state of consciousness.

@ksozay posted this a while back. I prefer CXL myself, it might take longer to break in but in my opinion looks x1000 better when it is than vicenza. To be honest if I owned this I'd either bin it or try to sell it as having 'amazing patina' on ebay.

That cross country motorcycle trip nearly destroyed his Vicenza jacket. Looks like he needed a Lost World's.

Months of rain, wind, sun, heat, road debris, tar, oil and bug gut would make any jacket look beaten.
