Custom jacket is a more artisanal process as described here, so you need to figure out if it is something for you or not. It is definitely not as quick as getting a ready made item, although the 5 years waiting time is extreme and another story.

Delays of a month or more are not uncommon, it really depends on the maker

And welcome to the forum, you will find a lot more jackets you will want to order here

Horse has been beat. Guess you get the jist of it. I do sympathize though. It’s our instant gratification times. Getting excited about a jacket and then w a i t i n g is a skill many of us have lost.

Or a skill that some never had!
I have actually gotten a lot better at waiting since I started buying custom clothing.
