I can see why you love it. That is a really, really nice jacket! Cheers!

Cool jackets and the band looks like they are rocking out. Any links to your band playing? Cheers!

Bates.

Nice coat and very nice album (Moving Pictures)! Cheers!

Walter Dyer. Heavy but wears pretty easy. Still breaking in a bit. Cheers!

My Walter Dyer jacket has leather lined, handwarmer pockets. I wish they were canvas or something else besides leather. What is the supposed benefit of that? Any guess? I like this Vanson though...a lot. cheers!

My experiences with washing leather jackets is similar. No harm done; smells and funk removed. I’m glad yours worked out well. Cheers!

As mentioned, if 5* has a jacket to work from (copy) and/or super detailed instructions and measurements of the customer, they can turn out a great product. Congratulations on a nice looking jacket!

I have a black pair of the RedWing moc toe boots. I like them a lot! Bummer about your White’s though. I hope you find a good pair of something.

Red wing Blacksmiths. Still breaking in but a couple coats of polish and leather cream and they are looking good to my eye.

People are drawn to the idea of having 5* create a beautiful jacket that is full custom. The risk is that they don’t deliver what you want and then you are essentially stuck. My experiences advice: don’t order from them unless you are prepared to receive a dud. Expect it to be off somewhere...

Thanks. That is one of the best looking 5* jackets posted here, imho.

very nice looking jacket. Did you do a write up on it with more pics?

Excellent looking jacket and the fit is spot on. Congratulations!

That looks really nice! I like this jacket a LOT. Very nice!! Cheers!
