Also to name a few, Frank Zane, Tom Platz, Lee Haney, Samir Bannout, Lee Labrada, Rich Gaspary, Mike Christian, Bob Paris etc. They were also full of anabolica...

    Review NOS Protech Leather Apparel Vintage Trojan Style Leather Jacket

    It seems Jamie Goodson wasn't only in relationship to Protech... https://www.brooksleather.com/about-us "... Upon the death of Leslie and Steve's subsequent retirement, production relocated to Brockton, Massachusetts. The factory was managed by Jamie Goodson with production manager Jay Winter...

    Five Stars Leathers: remake of a 30's "Aviator's" style Jacket

    Great looking jacket, I wouldn't change a thing! I like how the pockets are set and sleeve length is a personal preference. 5* did a great job here.

    Five Stars Leathers: remake of a 30's "Aviator's" style Jacket

    A nice and hopefully successful project in the end. I'm looking forward to the fit pics and a short review in terms of wearing comfort etc. As I already mentioned, I am more than satisfied with my two 5* leather jackets (Roadmaster and Trojan). The guys from 5* did a really great job! Of course...

    Review NOS Protech Leather Apparel Vintage Trojan Style Leather Jacket

    Cool news, much appreciated and many thanks. I always felt I am wearing a vanson when I wore the trojan... in terms of the leather, finish and construction.

    Regius Made Leather Jacket

    Admittedly I'm not a fan of these Logan's claws pleats (maybe they look better if they're flattened due some wear, as seen on originals, or you can hammer it down to speed up the process, lol) the heavy leather isn't my thing either, but I can say a fantastic jacket in terms of workmanship and...

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Thank you! In fact, the basic construction of the jackets is the same. They are both d-pocket cross-zipped jackets but with some different details on the front and on the back. I made both jackets as a daily wearer. For riding I have a Protech Trojan style (from which I copied the 5star Trojan)...

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Thank you. I can't say for sure because I don't have a gauge to measure it but I guess 1.2 mm for the Roadmaster, as I spec for and 1.4 mm for the Trojan.

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    After having had very good experiences with my road master d-pocket jacket, I decided to order a re-make of my Protech "Trojan" leather jacket (which I wear for motorcycling) from 5Star Leather so that I have a "Trojan" on a daily basis. I am more than satisfied with the result. Waxed...

    Waiting Too Long ruining excitement?

    To the OP question: absolutely! I have had so many clothes in the past that there is no such thing as a "holy grail" jacket for me and therefore my tolerance for waiting for something has dropped to practically zero.
