Some areas look rather big but they seem to struggle with firm leather like five star did with chl in the start

The side seam looks interesting too .A mix of five stars french seams and the heron .
Long throat latch like the five star but wide like the heron .


I think I shouldn't have send them pictures of both lol

It did for sure . They will fix some of my complaints but I don't think they will really fix anything. They even tried to scam me out of more money so they even fix it .

Well
I ordered black but it's brown now
Cuffs are facing the wrong way .
Hem/bottom part looks a bit long .
Back panel of the sleeves is in two pieces .(Cost cutting)
Wrong color of stitching
Buttons look huge but I will see in person .
Only one button on the cuff .
Second button of the collar strap might be missing but I didn't photograph that one.

Why offer multiple satin liners if you choose a different one anyways.


Overall I give a 5 out of 10 for now without handling it in person .

I even think aside from the 1.2mm five star feeling light and the pilling lining that the five star looks rather good after stretching and shaping and adding more grain to it .I ordered 1.6 a few years ago so that's why I seemed to be so upset with this black one .
The lining is still a bummer .But It stoped after removing the 'fluff/pilling"

But you are generous. For me that would be a 0 out of 10

Dude.WHY? Seriously, all kidding aside...why? These jackets look horrendously bad. Straight to the BIN. Frankly I can't believe they are made of leather and the patterns are comically bad.

I should have bought two pairs of Blake stitched shoes from my Chinese bootmaker instead.He knows my foot and delivers after some trial and error 100% of the time

You could do so much better on any auction site for the money you've already flushed. I think you need to change your focus or just resign yourself to eternal disappointment as these things are truly the antithesis of what they are trying to be. I'm not trying to be a dick but there is actually zero value in this excercise, literally none.

Well the value for now is .Just stop .
I have had a lot of luck finding people like my bootmaker and was trying to find someone for garments but all I got was crap and deceive full practices.
I am done with Pakistan for good.
F them

I don't need the money necessarily but it doesn't make it better .

There is a reason why the company owners live in Dubai or travel the world.Heck I don't even know if child labor was involved or if they closed the factory doors at night.


The last person I dealt in person with had defomities because of the chemicals released from the production around him .He accidentally showed me pictures of the tannery.....
