    Fit check on my new Fivestar Leather jacket please

    Front looks really good to me. BL is always the measurement I care least about. Why? Because I never see it. That said you wouldn’t have started the thread if you weren’t unhappy. Double check what you sent 5* vs what you received. If it’s off start a dialogue.

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Great write up. Pre pandemic I had a Schott store 5 miles away. I did a little bit of trying on but always felt a bit awkward because it seemed like the staff was commission based and i knew that i’d likely go the “good conditioned preowned” route. I did buy a great deck jacket from them and...

    Freewheelers vs. The Real McCoys vs. Vanson Cross Zip Jackets

    ^100%. It’s the problem with the entire “work wear” trend. Obsess over clean lines and perfect exotic materials assembled by master craftsmen when the originals were assembled using every last scrap and in many cases assembled by people with a few months on the job.

    Freewheelers vs. The Real McCoys vs. Vanson Cross Zip Jackets

    Brothers fight. Then they move on. Additionally ton312 is from Chicago, we use GTFO like pass the salt. I’d direct it at anyone but my mother.
