I’m quite sure they absolutely could clone your jacket. They are masters at that. Where things get tricky is when “original scholarship” needs to come into play. But a clone with minor length alterations, etc, particularly with the original in hand, should be an absolute slam dunk.
Example of a clone job. Red is the clone and way better than the original of faux leather.
Black premium goat is what I would recommend from 5*. I am very satisfied with mine.
I have always done it this way.
Thank you for the advice. I Tried it, but no no cigar. That wrinkle is dug in like an Alabama Tick. I tried ironing/pressing, steaming it until it became floppy, then molding. I tried putting conditioner, then blow drying it on heat while holding it’s shape. But the wrinkle won’t budge.
What kind of leather is your Hooch Haulter made of? Thick and stiff?
The Hooch Hauler is in their Badalassi leather, which I think is not particularly thick but is sort of stiff.
Interesting, that makes sense. Thanks for the info - I'll probably just go with whatever colour tickles my fancy the most then. I would look at the Aero shearling but if I'm only wearing the thing one month out of the year I'll go the less expensive Five Star route
The chest pockets at 5* tend to be positioned too far up and the hand warmers too far out. Point this out and best to provide measurements.
