Thurston Italian Vicenza Horsehide Full Grain Veg.-Tanned Horsehide for Aero Jackets

[Carrie @ Thurston Bros.]

This jacket and hide absolutely kill me.

Edit: which is to say I approve

I beleive the other big difference is that the MF Campus hide isn't 'finished' in the same way - the Aero Vicenza won't pick up the dye from denim, or stain the same? (Not to criticise the MF jacket - a lot of folks do want thatunqiue patina it builds up - I just prefer to keep it a bit more 'uniform' / 'clean'.)

I have my eye on this for a Seabisuit, actually...

We also now have Navy Blue Vicenza Horsehide!

We'll photograph the below Navy Blue Vicenza jacket when it's to us from Aero...

Dustbowl + Natural Vicenza Horsehide + Several Years Wear and Tear = Incredible Patina!!!

Carrie, is this an action back, or is it fixed/sewn down?

Action Back!

 

[Carrie @ Thurston Bros.]

Carrie, is this an action back, or is it fixed/sewn down?

Action Back!

Yep, it's the real thing! The August back works just like the Teamster back...it's a great addition to the half belt style if you want a little more room for movement in the back!
