A special one. Aero Premier HWM from May 2019 in a „raw“ natural italian horsehide. The leather is a dream. Buttery soft with a nice heft and a luxurious feel. Colour is very hard to capture, but the outdoor photos come closest.
Selling because I don’t wear it nearly enough to enjoy the evolution of the hide.
Two points worth noting:
1. The jacket has lived with me. The hide shows a lot of marks from rain, insects and other stuff. I have never tried to clean it, so I don’t know what can be done about that. The jacket doesn’t look filthy (and it certainly is not), but the status is not „as new“.
2. The evolution of the colour has not been linear. In the first months it went from „off white“ to „orange“ quickly. Surprisingly it then „re-paled“ again somewhat. I tried to clarify that, but the matter has been filed under „mistery“, even after Ken himself checked with the tannery in Italy. The jacket has since darkened again (albeit unevenly, depending on sun/element exposure).
I am pretty certain, the evo is not done yet, making the thing a perfect „3rd jacket“ for somebody being devoted enough to life the journey.
Approx measurements:
- P2P: 23,2“
- Shoulder: 18,9“
- Back: 25,6“
- Sleeves: 26,4“
Feels more roomy than a CXL jacket with the same dimensions.
Price is EUR 500 (plus EUR 50 for shipping outside EU)
