    FIVESTAR LEATHER CONTACTS

    Play smart and the import fees will be less. Unless the package gets lost and you need to use insurance, then it's a bummer.

    FIVESTAR LEATHER CONTACTS

    Just do your best to provide them with as much accurate information from your side as possible (like those photos). And accept the fact that you're always taking a gamble with 5*, probably more than with most other makers. Rather cheap gamble at that.

    RMC Mobster vs FW Mulholland. Who wins in a bare knuckle brawl?

    "I'm new to the whole repro leather jacket world" and your first choice is to go for the very high end / most expensive (relatively) models/makers? Not being judgmental / negative, just curious. Can you expand on how you decided to start right from the top? If you feel comfortable with answering.

    FIVESTAR LEATHER CONTACTS

    @ROOK ALLURES Hey! Can't wait to see the outcome of your order, especially in terms of fit. Well they were mostly accurate, but also inaccurate in several different ways. 1 . They completely screwed up the chest pocket measurements, making it rather useless for anything else than keys. So...

    Ideal location/climate for leather jackets

    This is another interesting idea that I had for a thread recently (sorry that I keep making these). Similar idea has been discussed in many "one jacket for the rest of my life" type threads. Imagine that you're choosing where to live based on your leather jacket hobby/addiction/obsession. You...

    Your all time fav Leather Jacket (1-2) you own or have owned

    Basically 3 aviator jackets. Beautiful! Each one so unique. Next step - Marc enrolls into an aviation/pilot course and eventually ends up collecting and flying vintage inspired planes.

    Aero Leather Dustbowl brown Kelpie - Fit Check

    @element of life Yours looks much better on you than mine did on me :) Congratulations on your jacket, enjoy it! I'm waiting for a brown cxl Hooch Hauler with black moleskin lining myself. Fingers crossed that it fits me once I get it. Should be finished in 1-2 weeks.

    Aero Leather Dustbowl brown Kelpie - Fit Check

    Nice to finally see some Kelpie pictures! I've gathered some as well as I was seriously considering it for my Aero order. How does yours look under direct sunlight? I found this CF Stead Equus Instagram post where the leather looks very dark brown in the shade but pops out like crazy with...

    Thoughts on Pigskin / pig leather

    Thanks everyone for the positive feedback on the wallets / stitching :) I have a few requests from friends to make some wallets for them, maybe that will inspire me to come back to this hobby a bit more. Also a few more interesting related resources (wild boar leather instead of pigskin...

    Thoughts on Pigskin / pig leather

    Nope, that's how they came. It does puzzle me that some of the stuff that I've seen from pigskin has those very pronounced hair holes, while the leather I have and use only really has them on the flesh/suede side. Grain side you can barely tell it's pigskin. Maybe sanded from the...

    Thoughts on Pigskin / pig leather

    Had an idea recently to make a thread about Pigskin / pig leather. Would like to hear your thoughts about it. It seems to be mainly used as lining for boots as far as I have seen it. I have used it my leather working. The wallets themselves did not turn out too well due to my mistakes and bad...

    Badalassi Carlo Leather - Appreciation Thread

    Spent some time looking into it and I think "ECBATANA LUX", "CARLO PUEBLO" and "CARLO NEMESI" look fantastic as well. Maybe a bit too dynamic for a jacket though? Also.. AA Crack.. What a name for a brand/website.

    Aero? Simmons Bilt? Looking for my "Forever Leather Jacket"

    @Hide'n'seek Thank you clarification! In case of normal thickness cxl hh, what's the usual range/variation in case customer specifies thinner/thicker? For example ~1.3mm thinner and ~1.5mm thicker? I ordered thinner brown and my order just went to production, what thickness can I expect?

    Badalassi Carlo Leather - Appreciation Thread

    2 from me: 1 . I asked Canuck Panda to give more more info about his Moonshiner as that is in my top 3 Aero jackets to get some day. He sent me some pictures of his Moonshiner in black Badalassi. I was so amazed by the leather! Never seen such beautiful black leather in photos before. Maybe the...
