Schott 508... Aero Bootlegger like jacket

[Recyclops]

I jut received my 508 from Schott. I’d love to get a custom Aero Bootlegger, however this will more than satisfying my wants for now.
Ones in a waxy cowhide. I wish it was a bit darker, but it’s fine. Overall, I’m happy with the fit on me as well.

Your new Scott looks good on

That's a very good fit. Length in the sleeves and body are perfect too.

I just saw a new Schott 508 (Small) pop up on Facebook marketplace. It should fit me well.

How is the leather after these few years? The fit still good?

I'm no expert but given the finish I'd wager it'll be darker soon enough. Right now it looks like a lighter colored tan w/ dark highlights. In a year I'd expect the dominant color to be roughly 1/2 way between the light and dark hues you see now and the highlights will be the lighter color rather than the dark. It looks great now and will look even better with a little wear. Congrats.
