    Is this Japanese jacket based on an actual vintage design?

    Is this Japanese jacket based on an actual vintage design?

    I believe its a collaboration between two Japanese companies, Toyo and Style Eyes. Its almost like an all leather grizzly turned into a half belt, but it actually has side laces, which you can't really see.

    That's a sharp jacket and i know for certain someone here designed it. I've always liked that design

    Show us your vintage half-belts

    Man that is the best vintage jacket I've ever seen! Goatskin is great, it's not like cow or horse at all

    Thanks, i knew there must be a picture of a vintage half belt in this style but i wasn't having any luck with google images

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Yeah i realized it was a thedi copy after I ordered it. The details on the back look so well done that someone must have sent Shawn one. The whiskey finish does look really good in the photos, I know some of their hides are kinda matte but that looks like it has a lot of character huh...

    Put some jackets on your jacket and you're good to go!

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Thank you! It's one of their stock models but it's obviously a copy of a Thedi hektor, maybe someone else here has some insight about that. I'm very interested in seeing that whiskey horsehide in person. Here's the link...

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Congrats, looks good! When you say off the rack, do you mean using their sizing charts? Because man those are some bizarre size charts

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Sorry to double post, but i was wondering if any five star sizing gurus here can help me. I specified to shawn that i wanted my hem a certain length, as the first jacket i got was very wide at the bottom. I used the measurements of an aero i have. Today i was idly looking at thedi jackets since...

    Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

    I actually have on my hard drive a collection of photos i found on a korean website of that vanson swedish cop jacket from every angle, every detail photographed. I've thought about sending them to shawn at five star to see if he could make anything from them. I can send them to you too if you...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Thank you, I actually didn't have time, it sold yesterday while I was still at work. It's a little surprising to me that it sold so fast since it's such a niche item from a beyond niche brand like five star

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    I read somewhere earlier in the thread about a recent batch of horsehide shrinking in the rain, did anyone else experience that? That is kind of a bummer if widespread, especially since I paid already

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    I've never used the classifieds here, would it be wise to keep the ebay auction up as well? I would like to move this thing out of my closet to make room sooner rather than later. I sent the same offer to the 8 new watchers after you this morning, but assuming no one jumps on it, I'm going to...

    This is mine, I'm having another Five Star made in horsehide and with a better fit knowing what i know about specifying while ordering with them.

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    When I did it, I just used the regular ordering process on their site. There was a field for a promo code, maybe you overlooked it

    Glad to see the Diceman is making a comeback. Hickory dickory dock, OH!

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Yeah, got it this morning. I had been recently talking to shawn about one of his jackets and i was going to purchase soon but i pulled the trigger today after getting the coupon. I'm having this aviator half-belt made in whiskey horsehide. This is my first half-belt, for anyone that knows, where...
