Does the Y'2 40th anniversary PR-65 jacket (lightweight +brown) patina and have brown/tea-core?

[long218]

Hi, I stumbled upon this jacket on Ebay Japan. https://ragtime.shop-pro.jp/?pid=156492272. Apparently it's the 40th anniversary model of the Y'2 PR-65 so it is only ¥70,000 MSRP (normally ¥110,000+) back in 2021. It is lined with 100% linen and offered in brown (normally only black and olive..) The problem is I don't want a brown jacket that will patina/peel into greyish color and prefer the brown core shade found in Black tea-cored leather. Anyone has experience with this particular jacket or found more info?

Found in the translated description of the link you posted

ty. I missed that. My Google Translate version showed "tanned base" rather than "nume base" (which I assume is the natural leather shade e.g Horween Unfinished)

Not sure what they mean by nume color base, but yeah not brown base as they labeled the black
