I purchased a "custom" jacket from Flightjacket.com "$610" and was not impressed.I found the owner difficult and borderline rude to deal with.In the end the jacket did'nt fit right and got the impression I was bothering him when I called.To be fair I've read some positive reveiws on this forum...
Yes,it is possible and quite common to request a specific leather color.Alan at Johnson Leather was very helpful finding the color I wanted.Most reputable companies will send you hide samples.
Jack,your Hercules repro was the tipping point per going with Johnson.I've hardly touched on the over the top service Alan offers.Try on jacket,canvas mock up jacket to insure proper fit,not mention a custom made 4 oz HH for less than $700.It's a no brainer in my book.
Ampgoesto11,my Johnson custom arrived today and it's a winner!I sent Alan a picture of an old Montgomery Ward jacket I found a few months back and he nailed it.Hope I'm not hijacking but it arrived today and thought you might like to see some pics.
