Green Leather Jackets

[X83]

Hello everyone, I hope you've all been well. Today I was on a trucker jacket thread, and I steamrolled the conversation and steered it toward green jackets (and then sheepskin jackets). My apologies to everyone involved. Anyway, it got me thinking about green leather jackets in general. What do you guys and gals think of them, and do you own any? If so, let's see some pics! Below are ones that have caught my attention over the years from Lewis Leathers (sheepskin), Shangri-La (Badalassi steer), and Thedi (goat)

All the best,

Max

Does anyone have an idea of how olive Vicenza looks after a year or two of serious wear? It's an interesting color, but I would need a guarantee that it would darken up over time before pulling the trigger.

Just realised you probably meant it’s a type 1 jacket with Horween leather, not Horween type 1!

That be cause it has extreme pull-up so once they start crafting the jacket all the oils move giving it that ink look

Thanks to @Canuck Panda for selling me this awesome Y2 piece. I’ve been lusting for a green trucker for a few years since seeing the officine general Liam on Ryan R.
Arms are a little snug, I’m probably closer to a 44 (this is 42) but this will do for now.
So happy today to be in the green leather jacket club.
