Hi Folks, please be patient with me as i am a newbie to the lounge, and although i have researched the subject a little , please forgive me if im asking a silly question .!! I have an interest In buying an A2 Jacket , but i have a concern about which hide to choose, i Want something that i can use and abuse, and will just get better with age , and my initial thought were maybe a Seal brown Oil Pull , But ive heared that they break in very nicely within several months., and look like it could have belonged to a veteran in about a year, but i am a little concerned about how it will age in the long term , say 10 years , is the fact that its been through the the oilpull process a deciding factor on how the jacket will last in the long term , and will it still look like an A2 after 10 years or will it more resemble a chamios leather !!, i wonder if anyone has any experience of owning an oilpull (Preferably the current material, as i understand it has changed) i would be interested to see any photos and hear any thoughts from owners with regards to how it is aging,
Many thanks , A fellow Sufferer ,
