    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Thanks for your input. I already have a horse hide jacket (Simmons Bilt) that I really like but it's quite heavy. Therefore I would prefer something lighter.

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    @MrProper: Thanks for your input. Five Star suggested cape leather as a light alternative to premium goat if i wanted something that has a feeling like cloth. But premium goat might be the better choice. I read somewhere they also have goat leather without "premium" and that this leather is...

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Perfect, thank you for your answer. I also saw an older post from you with very detailled instructions how to customize a Five Star Leather jacket, this is very useful. One last silly question but Shawn.fivestarleather@gmail.com is the email to request for such special orders, isn't it?

    Where can I get a copy/replica of my jacket?

    Still can't decide which leather to choose... Anyone know what kind of leather "Diesel" is? The Clayton leathers do like nice altough I dont' know if like the Clayton Vintage Horse as it has a bit too much of a vintage touch for my kind of liking.

    Where can I get a copy/replica of my jacket?

    @John_Z: thank you for the links. The first one looks somehow suspect, the second one i did find myself while browsing the web. It looks like I am not the only one, interested in a leather Harrington jacket. Today I got a mail from weargustin.com, they will produce a suede Harrington if they can...

    Where can I get a copy/replica of my jacket?

    Thank you guys for all replys. @Fanch: I see your point. I just checked with the Baracuta website, they offer a leather Harrington with raglan sleeves as well as a version with standard sleeves. I think it depends all on the thickness of leather how the jacket will drape and function. The...

    Where can I get a copy/replica of my jacket?

    Hi all thank you for your answers. First, i know that for some a Harrington jacket in leather is a no go. I am aware of that. I just really like the style/fit of these jackets and having one in leather would be the best of two worlds for me. The reason I am looking for a European company and...
