hello! I am letting go of my aero blue label dustbowl in battered tan size 38. basically new. never worn outside. tried it only a few times inside the house in front of my mirror. the style doesn't really agree with my personality as much as I wanted it to work. its blue-label flaws are aesthetic in nature that aero claims would eventually blend as the jacket breaks in. it's a very nice jacket but my body type works better with a slimmer cut. it looks baggy to me even though the measurements align with my preferences. I'm letting it go for 550 ffp + shipping OBO. thank you for looking!

photos cont... i dont see them as imperfections. the marks look like a bear tried to attack you but failed miserably earning you some leather battle scars. you can tell your friends that, or just be truthful and say they came with the jacket as its a blue label, but will eventially fade with time. :)

A little bit of oil or wax should darken the scratches and hide them.
still deciding if i should keep it. i might regret the sale. i might like it once it breaks in. the shoulder tips are a little pointy like a formal coat. not sure if it will go away once the leather relaxes. but thanks for the tip! i have a small can of obenaufs i got free from nicks. will try to apply a super thin layer.

The leather 's own pull up might be all it needs, if you try just rubbing it, it should darken and blend a bit. Then see if you want to add more. Do it sparingly, it's always possible to add more.

I agree on keeping it. If the fit works for you, a cautious amount of conditioner would help those scratches blend in to the background. The jacket is gorgeous.

yeah i wanna keep it.. but the trim is too "nice/cultured" for me but maybe just because im not used to such templates yet, but i agree, the leather and the jacket itself is nice.. if it doesnt sell, ill take it as a sign that its meant for me
