    Opinions regarding Schott Vintaged Perfecto Jacket 618V1?

    it's better to get a "distressed" jacket, because a new leather jacket could take a life time to get that "aged look" you will probably stop wearing it by the time it looks all aged and broken in, then it will be too late, lifes too short to age a leather jacket by wearing it
