A version of the Schott 370 (the "Duke") roughout is now being sold at Allen Edmonds for $1,105, which is $100 less than what Schott sells the Duke for.

The most obvious difference I can see is the AE version has a full internal lining, unlike the Duke which is unlined.

I am uncertain about the hide treatment, as the Duke is oiled which gives it some measure of water resistance. You would have to reach out to either Schott or AE to confirm if the AE version leather was also oiled.

How does someone wear something like this? I presume it would absorb unpleasant odor over time and not be wearable except in some pretty unusual circumstances... or do you wear a shirt under it and be super careful? Slather it w/ ozone once in a while?

it also has a very high Jethro Bodine factor that I assume can be tamed in some way but have never seen one worn before.

I wear mine wherever the **** I want (with a shirt underneath)...coffee, groceries, kids' school activities:

Very cheap 3sixteen X Schott A2 Collage in a Size L. If I recall correctly, these were made from Horween leather and fairly sought after after release. Seller doesn't know what he has at his hands...

I've bitten. I'll let you know once I get it.

Not into A2s, but for basically half the price a Chinese or Pakistani one would cost, it is a good gamble.
And just got it. Certainly a steal and fits me well over a tshirt, I can surely wear a thick sweater underneath too.

Absolute steal for the price. Still smells like new leather jacket.
