This is sold, thanks guys

It's not super thick which I like. But yeah I need like...23-23.5 pit to pit

Nothing to do with stiffness. I need more pit to pit. I have a very broad chest/shoulders

Hey guys, this was a dream jacket for me, but sadly, it's just a bit tight, I could probably use a 42...so I just do not wear it. Probably seen 3 wears from me max. I bought it off the original owner who never wore it...so this is pretty dang close to mint. Asking $1100 shipped in the USA via...

Cxl still an all time favorite. Can never go wrong

You'd be surprised. A lot of people don't lol. Especially since badassi has only been started being offered pretty publically recently. I would also be repeating myself. Good day

I disagree and don't think it makes any sense. It's not even about quality. When I know the tannery and the tannage done I can get some semblance of the materials properties. Your Swaine Adeney Brigg example is perfect for me. I understand that no matter what material they use it will be very...

I have always liked knowing where my products are sourced from. Yep just like you described with vansons and schotts leather. Of course just because the name of the source is hidden doesn't mean that the product/material cannot be phenomenal. Often times it can be. However it is also easier for...

uhh in the picture? Also that is fresh off the box with 0 wear. I'll come back to you in a few years lol

Grain

He has better close ups on the aero badalassi thread, and plenty of other great examples on there. However besides the rolls you can see dramatic color shift . Out of the box the grain is also quite pronounced...doesn't need to be worn a ton to "pop"

Edited better pic

Honestly worse than blind if you cannot see the changes in the first pic and the following. Also, I said badalassi ages beautifully. Said nothing about my jacket in particular. You are welcome to see mine but I have not had much of a chance to wear mine in a year and a half, so does not have...

That's the hilarious thing. If you know much about leather you would know that badalassi is pretty highly regarded in terms of vachetta....while vicenza is just a brand name and is actually as you described badalassi at first...made for feeling comfy out of the box for those that couldn't handle...
