Thanks Sloan. I don't really like the dull finish of oil pull. I have sent an email to Aero asking their advice also. And I have also contacted Pickings and Parry (where purchased my original "Happy Days" and where I will purchase the second one), and the owner has suggested I come in to the store to see a jacket he has in stock made with black Italian Vicenza, to give me an idea of the weight and feel of that leather, and that he also has swatches of all available leathers from Aero (except the natural tan Vicenza).
I have a Aero 50s bomber jacket in FQHH which is essentially the happy days jacket plus 2 front cargo pockets way to heavy for my liking still a fantastic jacket though if I was going to redo things I would go the Vicenza route in black without hesitation I don't think you can go wrong with black Vicenza you won't be disappointed, I've a Areomarine in the seal Vicenza it's still a substantial leather much better for where I live here in Brisbane though my FQHH jacket meanwhile sits waiting to be sold on eBay as I just don't wear it
