Which leather and why? Aspen vs equestrian

We are looking at the greyson recliner. It is the modern (no nails and squared off) version of the sadler. We can't decide between the equestrian chestnut and the aspen saddle. They are different grades, but that doesn't mean one is necessarily better than the other, just more expensive. Cost aside, is there any reason to go with one leather over the other? Anyone with experience with both leathers able to offer a comment on the leather itself? Color is really irrelevant, just the look, feel, texture and hand of the equestrian vs the aspen.

Thanks,
