    My first Vanson was also a revelation, they feel good and they sit well on the wearer

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    I will second @Marc mndt and @torfjord , The 5* goat I had is nowhere close to Sheeley and Thedi (I have goat from both makers, the 5* I gave away). Although, after the @ton312 treatment, that goat looked much better

    JL repro of a brando jacket

    Ah, interesting! Just looked it up on IMDB: "The snakeskin jacket Sailor wears in the film was actually Nicolas Cage's own. Cage asked director David Lynch if he could wear the jacket in the film, as a tribute to Marlon Brando's role in The Fugitive Kind (1960). After filming was completed...

    JL repro of a brando jacket

    Definitely! Will take fit pics when I get the chance under decent lighting :D Not sure I have the cool, but I did feel comfortable in it the few times I wore it :D Waiting for the weather to get cooler (pun intended lol) to see how it feels day to day Yes, they did a tremendous job on it...

    JL repro of a brando jacket

    Me too, I wonder if the jacket still even exists I think it was in natural colour. As I said, I hesitated but decided to go for blue in the end

    JL repro of a brando jacket

    Most likely I will have to figure out what works with it and what doesn't :) I have a pair of Carmina double monks in navy cordovan which I am sure would work. Or we can go more exotic with these: Or go for a contrast with burgundy. So many possibilities :D

    JL repro of a brando jacket

    I don't think it needs any breaking in, although it had some sort of top coat that makes the scales harder. The sclaes are what forms the skin if that makes sense. It is not as delicate as it seems, basically I am fine using it day to day. Not for riding of course. I was just told to avoid...

    JL repro of a brando jacket

    Maybe not as well known as The Wild One, The Fugitive Kind is still worth watching. As a bonus to me at least, there is a really cool jacket that I thought I should try reproducing. Who else to turn to for such a unique than JL? :D This jacket was completed quite some time ago, anyone...
