Hello everyone, I’m a newcomer. Please forgive my poor English because it’s not my first language.
When I was googling Aero, I found this small & beautiful forum. Although I just read several threads, I find there are so many professional and hardcore players. As a vintage fan, I signed up immediately.
Today, I’d like to share my favorite jacket, which doesn’t belong to any brand. But in my opinion, it’s the premium one.
In addition, I also like cameras and lenses. I used SONY A7R3 to ensure the image quality in this thread.
About the leather:
ILCEA Tannery was founded in the 1930s. Today it’s in Turin, Italy. Many famous footwear brands use ILCEA leather, such as John Lobb, Carmina, VASS etc.
ILCEA was known as it’s leather——“Museum Calf” & “Box Calf”, some beautiful shoes are as below.
This jacket is made of box horsehide, the texture is great and the leather is very tight and tough.
About the detail:
I think the craft is high level, the stitches are straight and elegant.
Where did I get this leather?
My friend is an excellent shoemaker, he is crazy in sort of different leather and he likes trying some rare leather. Half year ago he bought 300 sqft box horsehide. I thought it’s an awesome leather to make a jacket, so I bought some leather from my friend.
Then I found a small workshop named GUOFO, which had made high quality jacket for many years, so I sent the leather, told the size of my shoulder, chest and the proper sleeve length. One month later, I received this premium jacket.
The end. Thanks for reading.
If someone have question about this jacket, I’ll try my best to reply~
