Great question
Russet knits have been discussed here a number of times over the years. It seems that they start out as the ones pictured above with a red tone but after some wear and fade the color tones down a little . For example see the photo of an original A2 with original russet knits . It looks a little less red .

I would ask, what look are you going for. A lot of depot jackets ended up with seal knits. I would go for that if you want a uniform look. If you want a contrast, go with a mid brown or russet. If you use Aero Red, it will look like it is trying to be an Aero. That color was specific to that mfg.

That color combo is great if that is the look you are going for. It's not everyone's cup of tea but I think that combo looks sharp.
