We're crazy about our Abyss Blue Bainbridge--the color is a deep blue that is both classic and chic! JL has captured the magic of this color in a series of cool fit photos of his Vanson Portland

That really is one of the most amazing jackets and fits I've ever seen. The color and grain of the leather are outstanding, as is the way you wear it. Cheers!

Badalassi is excellent!! Don't sleep on this leather, one of the finest I've felt. Definitely have to have a full jacket in front of you and not just a swatch. And Carrie is so great on sizing with just pictures. Thanks again!

Stunning. How does this leather compare weight wise to Aero Vincenza or battered steer?

Hi NZJono,

The Thedi Buffalo is similar in weight to Vicenza Horsehide, but the Buffalo is probably just a bit heavier than the Horsehide. Aero's battered steer is the lightest of the three. Hope this helps!

Apologies for quoting such an old photo, but does anyone have any ideas (creams etc.) for accelerating the darkening of these Ace russet belts? Thanks!

Full disclosure: I’m in Europe so bought mine locally rather than from Thurston

Here's an easy gift idea (for someone else or yourself )--our ACE belt in Russet or Black! The details are incredible on this reproduction belt and the materials (both the buckle and the leather) will become more beautiful with wear and age! We have these belts in stock in sizes 34-42 and you can order custom sizes.

If you put the belt outside in direct sunlight for about 4-5 hours, the belt should tan and darken nicely! Hope this helps!
