            Depends the level. If it is too deep that almost split the leather I will return it. Maybe post a picture here.

                Do you have anything to use as reference for size?

                  Thanks...... Some irregularities are very common for the leather but this scratch is very obvious

                    Add a little black leather conditioner and buff it out a bit. It looks like a semi-undyed portion that has some iron oxide transfer (from the chest clasps) acquired during the dyeing process. Vest bags are typically the most "damaged" of the object dyed leather CCP items because of this.

                    I'm gonna try and say this in the nicest way, but when I read "scratch" earlier I though it must be over 6 inches and be deep like a knife cut to warrant any real complaint....as noted above, consider that the vest bag is object dyed in a liquid medium (softens the leather) and is smashed against the large (and none too polished) clasps of the chest for a good duration of time. The leather is not going to come out looking like polished shell cordovan. The whole dorsal area of my vest bag is covered with large (4-7") marks that make it look like the scratching post of an angry cat with semi-dull claws....I don't consider this a flaw...just a product of the manufacturing process.

                      i have to agree with blackfedora in this case. i'd say scratches and cuts are actual product flaws, but a small imperfection like that is hardly a major issue for the product. disappointing, perhaps, but also a facet of the bag more than a huge flaw in it, i'd say.

                          Not really.. As I know, they dye by colour batch and not by item.

                            can someone who owns/owned the l'maltieri lab coat tell me how warm it is? Usable in the summer or not?

                              I've never seen it in anything other than double layer cotton, so that's the version the question is referring to.

                                Are the lens on Kuboraum's sunglasses/sun masks replaceable with prescribed UV lens or prescribed optical lens? I want to purchase a pair of Kuboraum/Julius sunglasses but am unsure if I can have them replace my optical glasses.
