Midnight Blue HH

I'll probably have both.

Now that's a great choice!

When I dropped by the Aero factory last year, I saw a Board Racer in midnight blue Chromexcel. It was awesome, but a size too small.

Lord, I clicked that and thought it was Ringo!

Me too!

I think it would look great as a cafe racer, but I would do a Sheene or Seven. Something simple with a moto-vibe and zip sleeves.

In fact it would, but I already have 3 CR style jackets. But a Sheene would be something a little different.

Don't need to justify here - unless you're practicing for things to tell your wife/gf

I need all the practice I can get

The Navy Vicenza had more of a flat color feel to it. Less color variation, more of a "painted on" flat blue. Slight hue changes in different lighting conditions but not as much as the Seal vicenza I tried (which almost was a red russet in the sunlight). So that leather is not the best if you are looking for depth of color. But the blue speaks for itself. It was an unfussy, neat leather. No idea about aging.

Done, just finished setting all the details for my midnight blue Aero Jacket.
It will be an Original Hercules, with a simple satin navy lining and hookless brass zipper. Though to had an extra zipped chest pocket but ultimately decided against it.

That sounds like a great choice Edgar, can't wait to see pictures when you get it!

Already anxious for that moment.

A Sheene would be completely different with no duplication whatsoever. Good enough justification to order another jacket.

Always interested to see pictures. I have half a mind towards a J106 in midnight blue...

It's a hide color made for that pattern! @Leither has a beautiful one. How would you line it? I think red or blue cotton Drill would be awesome. OD Drill works well with it too.

Does Aero Have blue cotton drill?

Not in the drill, but the website lists a blue cotton sateen as one of the available 'standard' linings:

Oh, definitely the red cotton drill for me. I have that in my black (Horween Bison) Dustbowl, and it looks outstanding.

That's the one I chose

Hmm, with blue HH, I might go for a nice lining like this. I think it would be lovely, and easy to don/doff.

That looks like a proper fit for a cafe racer to me.
