Are those pictures of old jackets, new jackets that look old or what? I don't get it...

Some of the stuff looks nice. Aged, distressed leather, yes, but still nice looking stuff. Question is, what are the prices like?

predistressed no doubt. They seem to offer similar 'new condition' products too though.

Very nice designs. Great website. Something overlooked with many companies.

I only bought a buffalo leather jacket from them years ago and was not so expensive as my naero or vanson. http://fotoalbum.virgilio.it/motard/fedora/30032011213.html. I am not aware of actual prices but I may check them easy. Stewart is a well known manufactures near florence and they hold too one of the biggest leather jackets museum of the world. Just bear in mind that italian way to tann and treat some leathers (horse hide at least) is way different from Us way. Horse hide had been well known and appreciated here still from XIV XV sec, and buffalo too, but it was considered a luxurious leather because of his softness and supply appearence, while in most Us products HH is hard and stiff. Thikness is about the same but treatmente is somehow very different. Ps I posted the new "distressed" collection, but there are not distressed too.
Ps: here is another of my preferred makers, its more a taylor than an industry and uses only Horse Hide and steer: 1,2mm thick leather, still very supply and pliable. If you like to have a tour click on anter and then on "giubbotti" on the left. http://www.bitlis.it/
prices between 300-350 usd
