We did this Aero Board Racer in Black Italian Vicenza Full Grain Vegetable Tanned Horsehide and the customer requested a Buco J-100 style...looks great! I wish we could have photographed this outside to capture the grain a bit better, but it was pouring rain all day...

Hi Carrie,

What is the difference between the "normal" board racer and the Buco J-100 style?

I actually scanned through each page of this thread, and have seen some customers actually request the Buco patch as well? Why is that? Am I missing something...

From what I take, the J-100 has a straight yoke and a vertical back seem. What does the "normal" one have?



Thanks.

Picture of the back of my normal Board Racer, which has a kidney panel instead of a yoke. Just a matter of personal taste.

Ahhhhh so both have vertical seam, but the "normal" one has a lower horizontal seam / kidney panel. Thanks!


Does anyone who has tried on both have an idea if they fit differently at all? Or purely cosmetic?

There are a number of options here:

1) You can get a Board Racer styled and branded exactly like a Buco J-100...Buco Tag, Buco's straight slim fit, the works!

2) You can get a Board Racer with the Buco J-100 back...this is the most popular option...

3) You can get a standard Board Racer, like pawineguy posted above

All three of the above options have the same fit...slim and straight!

What type of lining would you recommend for SoCal (Santa Monica/LA)? Cotton? Satin?

Defiantly do not want any insulation..

For your neck of the woods, the Black Sateen Liner is our recommendation...nice and thin...feels very nice on warmer days!

Here's an excellent custom Aero Hercules in Black Vicenza that just arrived! The grey Alpaca and Olive Drab stitching are a great combination with the leather!

I'm guessing you have some pics of a black sateen liner? And when I'm ready for a fit jacket/leather samples, do you also have samples of the interior liners?

We don't send out samples of liners nor of hardware, but our photos can really help with those decisions...Aero has tons and tons of options available...it's crazy!

My favourite lining!

For whatever reason, the Olive Sateen mixes extraordinarily well with the Dark Seal Vicenza...they're awesome together! Add OD Green thread in too...
