Thats awsome. I also have a dark seal vicenza board racer (buco j100 modified). Mine is only about 18 months old. Hoping it will look like your awsome jacket.View attachment 322515 Hanging out at the airport today in my Dark Seal Vicenza Aero Board Racer. Probably 4 years old? Maybe 5?

Looks quite a bit like an Eaglesons I had. I had it relined and sold it. I should have offered to you first. Simple but with outstanding leather.
I have heard of Eaglesons. Were they in Southern Cal? This one is probably a small 42. Made for warm weather.

It’s gotten much better over time. Honestly when I first got it, I hated the way it fit and wasn’t sold on the color either. It was one of my first attempts at a custom jacket and was the beginning of my love/hate relationship with custom leather jackets. I actually gave it to my brother in law a couple years ago because I just didn’t care for it.nice grainz yo! was it that grainy to begin with or got better over time?
I want to say it was a department store out of San Francisco. I found some old ads and newspaper article. My memory ain't what it used to be and my hard drive with all my jacket photos, etc. is in storage. But almost positive it was in San Francisco.
Edit: My memory may be shot. I just found this--

I still cling to the idea that they had an operation in SF, too. I'm less certain now but can't shake the recollection.
