    So if I buy the cheapest version of the jacket they will adjust accordingly?

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    How do you access the seller note? I didn't see any tab or anything indicating a notes section. I guess I am missing something. I received another email from 5* and they recommend to buy the jacket off of the web site and then email them the my specifications along with the order number

    So, you send him an actual jacket and he reproduces the pattern and he then sends you the jackets?

    Do you think that Shawn will be able to use pictures of an existing jacket, I have a wrangler trucker, to reproduce in HH?

    Thank you. That leather looks not bad at all. And 1.2mm is perfect. How does the leather compare with, say, horween CXL for example.

    I'm looking to order a trucker in black HH, less than 2mm thick. It's way cheaper than JL. They're asking ~$1100 for a trucker with the Masaye German HH. When you receive yours would you please post some pictures?

    So to summarize the 5* ordering process, contact Sawn not by email (I've tried, no reply) but by whatsapp, if they respond, choose a jacket style, send detailed measurements (shoulder width, chest waist hip upper arm forearm and wrist circumference, arm length and back length)choose the material...

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    I have never owned anything other than black jackets., shoes and belts. I think, and of course this is just my opinion, black leather jackets show more character and elegant "toughness" as they age. Generally my attitude towards apparel is, simplify, simplify without losing value or...

    My jacket cost $1150. Stitching is straight, careful and deliberate. I live in Maryland and they sent me mock jackets for fitting.

    I've had great experience with Johnson Leathers. I asked them to make whether they would make a jacket with my specifications and they were very accommodating. I had two fittings and the result was a great jacket that I've been waring a lot to break it in and also because it is a very good...

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    How mismatched are the measurements of the jacket you received compared to what you requested? I'm asking because I'm thinking of ordering a trucker from them. I think if we see how they interpret the measurements it may be easier to order accurately. Actually on their website they say that the...

    Hahaha, nah. Just think though that my son is 6'7"+ and has got the leather jacket bug. I promised him that next year at his 21st birthday he'll have a horsehide car coat. He likes car coats. I am saving already.

    I have the same problem. I am about 25.5 p2p on the chest 22-23 inch on the shoulders and about 36-37 in the waist. I work out and on top of that I am 6'5". I have found out that only custom made jackets fit me the way I would like them to. They are quite more expensive than OTR or second hand...

    I am late to this discussion, but I wanted to add my experience with Taylor. Th attached pictures are of their Detroit type jacket the way it used to look like. The jacket is 34 years old, has had a lot and lot of wear over the years and still looks and is great. As you see they used to make...
