For sure. Really trying to keep expectations in check. But some green, mostly tan thread is the deal breaker. The paper thing is kind of bad but not end of world.I would be more surprised if these kinds of things didn't happen. We've all become very used to precision from the high craft jacket makers.
But I used to buy Andrew Marc jackets back in the day before I started educating myself, and I think those are made in Pakistan, and they were pretty good builds. Leather was not great, but they were on point with construction. And they were usually in the $250-300 range on the endless sales they have. I remember I had one that I was almost subconciously trying to destroy to justify buying a new jacket. I had it in the wash multiple times, dryer high heat for hours, took sand paper to it to distress it. Thing is still strong as ever. LOL.
