AGING
"Aging."
I think all leather lovers love this word.
However, I can't help but feel that in recent years this word has taken on a life of its own.
It is indeed beautiful to see "sleeves" and "collars" aged.
However, it is not true that all leather ages in this way.
The same horsehide material will age in completely different ways depending on the finish.
The most rough and rugged aging is probably the full-vegetable tanned "Eco Horse".
Aniline horsehide" has a beautiful coloring with a sense of transparency that is unique to aniline leather.
Aniline Horse" is suitable for tailored JKT, Cossack JKT, and so on.
The "Aniline Horse" is used for models with a beautiful silhouette, such as tailored JKT and Cossack JKT.
On the other hand, "Eco Horse" goes well with masculine car coats and aviation coats.
Only when each design and leather material are exquisitely matched can one of the best items be created.
The "exquisite" aging that you can see in the pictures is not immediately apparent.
This is because each part, such as the marker and the body, uses a "core material" with different thicknesses and widths.
The use of interlining material makes it difficult for the leather to stretch and lose its shape.
The thickness, width, and location of the interlining material varies depending on the leather material, such as "deerskin" or "horsehide," because of their different characteristics.
All of this is done with the hope that the customer will continue to wear it beautifully.
The more a leather jacket is worn, year after year, the more it adapts to the owner's body, and the more one grows attached to it.
This is the same for all materials. Never be in a hurry.
