    Five Star Leather Jackets

    this jacket is nearly complete. Well, Shawn thought it was, but there are several issues that hopefully will be resolved soon. The biggest issue was the omission of the specified internal pocket. Shawn said he will check into my punch list tomorrow. I've also requested pics of the jacket being...

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Hi all. Is there anyone who has collated all of the various iterations of the available leathers from 5*? Would you be willing to make a post with what you've got? I know somewhere in this megathread are pics and maybe thickness measurements of the newest CHL leathers. I know there have been...

    Bad idea?

    If anything, the zipper could be a couple of inches longer. Not a deal breaker to my eye. Otherwise, I would not change anything. $0.02

    Photos of cool jackets owned by others (non-brand specific)

    What is this? I like it a lot. I'm trying to refine what I want from a crosszip. I know I want it to be understated and minimal and this is now high on my list of great designs. Thanks

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    You know, your last picture really shows this 5* leather in a different light, so to speak. The light tan color especially looks.....dry and flat. I don't mean this as a criticism to you or putting you or your jacket down. I really (really!) want to like this light color leather but....it's...

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Hi. Great looking jacket! Regarding the tan colored jacket you got previously, did you end up keeping it and if so, have you worn it much to break it in? I am really wanting a lighter colored tan jacket but am put off by the less than stellar comments you've made. Another member here had one and...

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    I have a (potentially ignorant) question: what is the difference between this (Shawn's tumbling machine) and your average home drier on "air" setting, no heat? I mean, a dedicated "tumbling machine" seems like it's for industrial use and a home drier seems like it would be ok for a single...

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    I have been emailing with Shawn about this leather in a jacket. Over the past month, he has mostly been M.I.A and not responsive to my emails. Two weeks ago I sent him a 7 page document with lots of pics....pretty much the finished idea for my third jacket from him. What I have decided, is not...

    I think you are right. I'm getting a wool lining in the body and going for 24" pit to pit. The wool doesnt seem too thick, from pics I saw from Shawn.

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Nice. I had an email back from Shawn today as well. He described the leather as "Regarding the measurements, for a 45 Inches Chest I think there must be 6 to 7 inches Extra space in the Chest to fit better as this is 1.7mm thick Leather". This is the Cream colored leather that isn" CXL".
