That's beautiful. Is it cow hide? I was looking at their site, I wonder how they can sell jackets for so cheap? The quality looks really nice.

@Riu got his premium goat waxed and I think that gives the leather something else. I tried waxing mine in a hidden spot but unfortunately saw no difference. I think the only thing that helps is lots of wear. lolThat’s their premium seal goat. Really nice leather, but the colour is a bit boring imo. Stitching and construction quality is way up there. They’re based in Pakistan so I think that makes a big difference in their operational costs.
Interesting. Because they have Germany as their location.That’s their premium seal goat. Really nice leather, but the colour is a bit boring imo. Stitching and construction quality is way up there. They’re based in Pakistan so I think that makes a big difference in their operational costs.
The color looks good to me, goes perfectly with blue or black jeans!That’s their premium seal goat. Really nice leather, but the colour is a bit boring imo.

True. However, this is not yet a store, but rather an office. But I think the shipping is still directly from Pakistan. At least that's how it was with my last two jackets.Interesting. Because they have Germany as their location.
Love the sweatshirt. What is it?

Eventually you’ll see the 5 Star version. Documentation is well underwayThe collar needs to be accurately traced and measured for 5 Star.
I'm speechless. WOWIf you collect vintage jackets you have to be willing to take risks and to lose. That’s the only way to really win. I was too afraid to take the high stakes risk on this jacket. @Marc mndt was not and to the victor go the spoils. This jacket perfectly exemplifies why I’ve grown bored with repros. No maker, from anywhere on the planet, has been able to capture what the lightning in a bottle that is this jacket. The ultimate 40’s Halfbelt. As good as it gets. The best of the best.
I’ll let Marc give the full details when he has it. Needless to say, in my 20 plus years of collecting, I’ve never seen one quite like it. It’s simply stunning.

This should be the black one.Eventually you’ll see the 5 Star version. Documentation is well underway
Thing is…it’ll never be as good. I don’t think it’s possible. I promise I’ll take it off now MarcThis should be the black one.
The collar needs an FAA certification, enough surface there to provide lift...wow.The collar needs to be accurately traced and measured for 5 Star.
