Double riders are Billy Idol's signature look as well, still looks good wearing them at 68 years old. Totally agree with what others have said it's about wearing what makes you feel good.
Here's my favorite Aero and non-motorcycle cross button. Don't remember the model name anymore, but it's great with T-shirt or shirt and tie. Love wearing this jacket, no motorcycle needed.
It’s been 5 days since I reached out to Shawn and Fargham, no response regarding a full refund or no cost remake. I emailed them again today and will give them a few more days before I file a complaint and request a refund through my credit card provider. They claim a 100% customer satisfaction...
I agree, it's sham
I agree it is a shame. Someone put a lot of work into making this jacket and unless your fitting it on a 3D body they probably thought it looked fantastic. The jacket probably represents 1 months salary in Pakistan for the sewer, feel bad if they take a hit.

Totally agree, the thicker leather does add more variables and difficulty.
I wish I knew more about jacket making to be able to check in on their grading process. Fargham sent pattern pics unfortunately looking at flat paper I can't tell a good pattern from a bad one.
requested collar pics below.
I didn't notice until I took these new pics the shoulders seams don't line up. The left shoulder's seam pulls more toward the front of the jacket than the right shoulder in the picture. In real life it's not as extreme as the below pic but it off by about 1/4".
This jacket was based on an original 1930 Ralph Pugh that Mysteryo sent 5* a few months ago.

@Aloysius I thought I was safe ordering a jacket based on an original...
Review of 1930’s Double Rider in CHL
Background info, due to gaining a lot of weight post Covid buying an off the shelf leather jacket isn’t an option. The sad part is I have a closet full of 42 size jackets that I’m 40# too heavy to wear. I spent weeks reading this thread page by page and...
I've read their customer service sometimes sucks; I’d like to share my experience which could of ended poorly but they turned it around.
When Fargham sent the jacket pic's they didn't make the pockets as requested. I sent pics of the pockets on my Monarch I wanted duplicated, but the 5* had...
I ordered a double rider using Mysteryo’s 1930’s original jacket pattern in the 2mm CHL from 5*. These sleeves have a ton of curve and taper to them. The vintage pattern and the 6 pages of pics/ instructions I sent Fargham made the difference. The pattern has a lot of curvature, definitely not...
Has anyone used their current batch of CHL 2.2mm leather? I'm ordering a double rider in black/brown CHL, but I'm not sure if I want to go with the CHL or Seal HH. I have a 5* premium goat jacket and the heavily pebbled finish turned me off to their goat hides.
