I’ve stopped asking for samples b/c I don’t find them all that informative anymore. Can’t recall the last time a sample and the finished jacket had anything in common. For me it’s all about the batch and I just ask specific questions as to the batch qualities. Weight, grain and a pic usually does it.
Can you elaborate your experience between sample and actual jacket?
I have only 1 schott jacket. Vintage/tumbled waxy cowhide.
Despite different tannery with Aero, the “grain type” is the same/expected as steerhide sample from aero. Here’s some pic
