Is this similar to russet in colour?

It looks really nice.

Not sure but it looks absolutely gorgeous, much better than it looks on actual jackets that I've seen so far.

is that pinnacle? I don’t have Instagram so can’t see much from that. It Seems gorgeous.

The pinnacle I’ve seen so far is flatter and more uniform. This is nicer!

@twistdh
Horween’s Pinnacle horsehide (front) tannage in acorn color.
Exactly, much nicer variation, color depth and shine than I've see from Pinnacle so far.

Hello everyone,
Here are some pictures of my new Highway Man Premier jacket in Pinnacle leather.
It's brand new and I've had it for 5 days.
I had it fitted at an Aero partner shop where I was able to look at several jackets made with different leathers.
I originally wanted Chromexcel Horsehide, but once I tried it on in person, the very stiff feel put me off.
So the salesperson told me about Pinnacle, which would be a great alternative and would be easier to wear and break in faster.
You should know that this is my first premium jacket; I was more used to entry-level, very supple jackets.
Pinnacle is more supple than Chromexcel, but still quite thick, and it has a more matte and slightly less shiny appearance.
I haven't worn it much since I got it because the weather is still quite warm these days, around 19 degrees. Yet I'm in France, in Brittany, and the leather is already starting to adapt to my body and shape itself.
I'm really happy with this jacket, and I can't wait to see how the leather evolves over time (in the shop where I had it made, I tried on one that was about 6 months old).
Next jacket: a J100 in Badalassi.
If you have any questions, please excuse my English, which may be a bit shaky.

And here's the jacket I tried on in the store before my custom order.
This jacket is over 6 months old.

I find the patina of the leather magnificent

Congrats! Great looking jacket. And the comfort is undeniable. I’ve had my jacket for nearly a year. I’m in Southern California so it doesn’t get as much wear as it would in other parts of the world, but I wore it as much as possible this past year.

Here’s mine the day I picked it up from the shop where I ordered it (Oct 30, 2024).

These were taken within the last week or so. It definitely wears in differently than chrome excel, or even semi aniline, but it’s beautiful in its own way.

 

[vincent29]

Yes, it's definitely super comfortable.
Also superb.
I didn't know Vanson at all before coming to this forum.

Looks great. Now delete your account here, cancel the J100 order, and enjoy life with your jacket.
