Aero Board Racer, size 40, Blackened Brown Vicenza Horsehide

Sold Out

A gorgeous custom jacket from Thurston Bros. Rough Wear!  This is an Aero Board Racer in size 40.  The Aero Board Racer is Aero's interpretation of a Buco J-100-era leather riding jacket.  It's made with Blackened Brown Vicenza Horsehide, which has a ton of character and grain right out of the box!  This jacket features a two-pocket front, zip sleeves, nickel hardware, nickel diamond pulls on chest pockets and a Bruce of Kinnaird Ancient lightweight tartan wool lining. Left side interior pocket with no closure.

This jacket is brand new with tags.  This leather is medium weight, so it doesn't have much of a physical break in (compared to Chromexcel FQHH).  It has a nice grainy texture and plenty of body!

This Vicenza Italian veg-tanned full-grain horsehide has lots of grain and character--photos show these great details!  The Blackened Brown Vicenza is a unique color combination--it is a Dark Seal Vicenza HH with a Black overdye.  The initial result is a warm black color that will develop dark brown wear as the jacket breaks in over years of weathering!
