Not in the same place but the jacket can fold behind your back while sitting which creates long straight lines that look “unnatural” to some people
Yes, I agree. No doubt, the jacket will mirror the owners use in no time.

Look closely at the pictures unnatural. If you would spend 1k and be okay with that be my guest, but I won't.Have you looked at the leather jackets that people post photos of on this forum? The epic amounts of creases, grain, faded edges, etc.? If you think this crease warrants a return, then clothes made from leather simply isn't something you should be looking getting into.

Are you looking at the crease or the stamp mark that looks like a traffic cone?Fair enough.
What would you be okay with?
This is a week into wearing a brand new RMC Buco J100. The back was completely clean when I got it. One week later I have an "unnatural" X. Guys, honestly, I don't think leather jackets are for you.

What is the difference? New jacket that becomes like this in a week?You sure you would accepted that as a new jacket…?
The OP didn’t complain about a jacket he has worn in, whatever the timeframe.

Personally I don't care. If I buy new it is because I can't find something that I really like used. I understand how leather evolves/changes/ages and my expectations are aligned with that. I beat up every piece of clothing that I have.The difference between a new jacket and an obviously used one?
I would not be happy with this mark on a brand new jacket. I’ve owned two jackets that had noticeable horizontal creases across the back from being folded into too small a box for shipping. These creases always remained sharper and more noticeable than any other marks that appeared on the jacket with wear.You were right to return. This is not grain, but an imprint of something pushing into the back. While many may not mind (myself included) some will, and at this price why compromise.

Enjoy your fashion pieceSomeone give this guy a cone creases jacket.
Thank you!Enjoy your fashion piece
I get that this was meant as a jab, but in reality, isn’t that what these jackets are for most of us here? I don’t own a motorcycle, nor was I a pilot in WWII so I can’t claim that a leather jacket is an essential piece of protective gear for me. I just like them.Enjoy your fashion piece
I agree with you. However there is a difference between wearing 99% of the jackets we discuss here casually/for fashion purposes and actually buying a typical lambskin fashion jacket let's say. There is a difference in mentality between the two worlds.I get that this was meant as a jab, but in reality, isn’t that what these jackets are for most of us here?

For example, a typical lambskin fashion jacket with any sort of imperfection would look weird and be unacceptable. But a Schott jacket? Even if you never ride, it doesn't fall in the same category.
