    Five Star Leather Jackets

    I went with the standard length. 24 inches a great length for a Indy jacket. I have longer ones and shorter ones from other makers. Unless you are really tall 24 would work good I think

    Jacket Question

    I think the leather quality is great. It was a special tanned goatskin just for the purpose of matching the jacket. I am not a leather expert although I have owned many leather jackets over the years. I am very impressed with how this turned out. And they do have a variety of brown goatskin...

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Got the prototype u boat jacket based on the original I sent in. They didn’t have the buttons I wanted so I will sew ones on myself. They tanned a new leather just for this jacket, I think it’s a great upgrade over their matte grey steerhide. This new leather is goat. Overall I am extremely...

    Jacket Question

    Would love to see how it turns out for you however I think you’ll get just as good with five star leather as magnoli and both are made in Pakistan or India. Five star can do the correct vintage wool lining that the jackets were made with

    Jacket Question

    I can understand that. For me it isn’t really about inaccuracies on the history bunker it’s more I don’t like the way it looks, and if was casually wearing that it would bother me. When they were making them during the war they got a lot of the details just perfect for whatever reason and that...

    Jacket Question

    Would love to see the finished jacket if you get one :) My concerns about history bunker are circled in this picture. I think it is too long past the bottom pockets too, but if you like it go for it!

    Jacket Question

    That’s why I would suggest going through five star leather. They will build a pattern and produce the jacket in whatever leather you desire, probably for around 300 if goat or steerhide, maybe a 100 more for horsehide. The design is simple enough I don’t think they will get it wrong but either...

    Jacket Question

    For the engineer style jacket you are mentioning the only one I have seen that does a good version in my opinion is sm wholesale because they all seem to get the cuff flaps placed way too high. That being said if I was going to get one of those jackets I would have five star make one for me, and...

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    In this case I sent them the actual jacket and asked to be copied completely without any changes in measurements. Previously they designed the u boat jacket they currently make off pictures of a u boat jacket made by wested for the movie dad boot that found when one of them was placed up for...
