    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Yeah, I'm assuming as such too. I'm confident everything will be resolved. I don't have any actual questions per se, I just want confirmation that my requests re: materials and measurements have been noted for the order. I'm going to follow your advice and reach out across multiple platforms

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Well I got a response this morning to my battery of questions about my order. Unfortunately, the response was a picture of blonde mouton fur, which was not relevant to anything I had sent. Oh boy.

    it doesn't help that colorwise the pictures of the leather samples on the website are demonstrably not anything like what they actually seem to look like in real life

    Good deal, I've gone ahead and requested premium conic goat. Hopefully somebody confirms something with me soon

    Pardon my ignorance, but is 3 oz considered thick?

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    I finally placed my order yesterday and specified what I wanted in the little box in the shopping cart section. I've followed up on Whatsapp but haven't heard anything back yet.

    What exactly do I have to ask for to get cotton drill lining? Is that what the high quality 100% cotton is?

    I'm with you. I'm going to place an order with them in the next week or so, but I'm doing my homework as best I can before I do so.

    I believe you told me what you know about the differences between conic and conic glazed, but I still have no idea what they are. Apparently the glazed is waxed or something?

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    My main complaint with Five Star is that earlier in the thread, I saw all these beautiful tan leather jackets that were made, and when I went to have one made myself, I was told that the tan steerhide was out of the rotation currently because of customers saying it was too stiff.

    The fit and quality look dead on. Five Star should link here, I think this thread is the most successful unintentional marketing campaign I've ever seen

    I see, thanks for the info. I desperately want a tan or natural jacket from five star in any leather, but unfortunately that's not in the cards now. So I'm leaning towards conic or reddish brown goat now

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Aero grizzly again. I had this thing made last Spring, so this Winter is the first time I've been able to wear it in earnest. The cordovan horsehide is breaking in nicely if I do say so myself

    Help with dating and identifying a jacket

    Tripp NYC was or maybe still is an old punk clothing store/brand in the East Village. Used to have some extremely tight cigarette pants from there when I was a high school punk rocker
