Oh I didn’t see that it was a zip closure. That should be perfect then.- KBlake

Wow! That is a gorgeous leather. As usual, I had no idea they offered this. Is there an upcharge for it? What colors does it come in? Also, it looks like your wrists will be tight. 5” wrist is very narrow but you can stretch that a bit with a shoe stretcher- KBlake

5* uses different patterns for different jackets and they have two cross zips that look similar but one has higher armholes and a better fit. Unfortunately the one I ordered was the wrong one. There are posts here about how to determine whether a 5* is made with high arm holes or not but the...- KBlake

Hey folks. I just wanted to pass along a tip about the quilted lining 5* offers. I got their black laser quilted lining after requesting their diamond quilted black stitch lining. They said they had gotten complaints about the latter and replaced it with the former. Well, I’m not thrilled with...- KBlake

Does anyone have any ideas for how to stretch the skirt/bottom of a 5* half belt? Thanks!- KBlake

It’s based on this jacket: https://www.fivestarleather.us/products/civilian-vintage-1930s-classic-men-real-leather-jacket As for the pattern, I wish I had asked that the slant of the D pocket match that of the handwarmer. Also, the ticket pocket is too tall.- KBlake

There are way more knowledgeable people here than me but I would think they would say you are going about this the wrong way. The thing to do is measure a jacket that fits you well and go from there.- KBlake

Check out my 5* inspired by Justin Chen's (coastal_file on ig) field leathers jacket. I opted for snaps instead of zippered sleeves. The ticket pocket is a bit too big but Shawn said changing it would mess up the symmetry of the jacket. I think I'm OK with it. This is the brown pull up HH and I...- KBlake

Has anyone here gotten one of these made? In HH with some design tweaks it would be pretty sweet.- KBlake

I like the collar you went with here. It's not the one that comes with the 30s half belt.- KBlake

Do you think the jacket in the photo is too long? It's 26" and I'm 5'11" with a somewhat short torso and long legs.- KBlake

I'm thinking of having this 5* half belt shortened by ~1". Could a decent seamstress accomplish this without ruining it? The zipper would not need replacing because it starts an inch up.- KBlake

Can I ask how tall you are? Also, where do you get your ball and loop chain? Is it easy to transplant? Thanks- KBlake

Is my 5* eggregiously too long? I was afraid of going too short since I ride and don't want my lower back exposed on the bike. But I'm afraid this is too much :(- KBlake
