Colors will vary from batch to batch even for the exact same leathers. Maybe the seal Vicenza HH is a tad lighter in color than seal jerky HH. However the seal Vicenza is far better than seal jerky in terms of richness, texture and hand. Seal Vicenza also has a better drape than seal jerky. In any case, IMHO seal Vicenza HH is well worth the additional upcharge and then some!
One thing to keep in mind is the samples are just samples and in no way illustrate the uniqueness of seal Vicenza HH. Awhile back I bought a size 42 (long) Premier Highwayman in seal Vicenza HH that was simply incredible. Unfortunately the HWM was too tight and had to send it back. I currently own two Sheenes, one russet Vicenza and the other black Vicenza. I don't own a seal Vicenza but can say unequivocally that seal Vicenza is the richest color of all.Fanch.. thanks for responding.. I did get my samples yesterday and like you said I do like the Seal Vicenza best.. As soon as Holly gets back to me on another issue I will probably work on getting my order together..
@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.
