Kind of "Groundhog Day" here in Hamburg....same elevator, exactly the same face, the bag is the same, too.

But ooops, the jacket is different...

Looking sharp as usual but the jacket seems a thad too long to me????

Thomas,

the jacket is almost a whole size larger than other jackets I got from Shawn. The length is quite ok, the problem (and here is something FS definitely has to find a solution for) is a rather loose-fitting waistband.

Other things have improved significantly:
First thing is the leather. Very substantial, soft and mismatched....and yes, there is absolutely no odor, except for leather.
Sleeves are wider and look less modern than on the Bronco and house style.

Give me couple of days, and I will try to come up with a full review...

More 'pucker' when they sew it in? Looks good though!

Sporting the "Hunters" 1950s USAF look today in my L-2b...pic to follow, need to find a suitable elevator with mirror first...

It's a new FiveStar jacket, made after the Doniger contract.
Leather is goat, in a dark russet.

Did you specify what type of goatskin you wanted? I need some closeups
I think you mentioned something of a New type of goathide? Looks really good on you.

 

[Brettafett]

Ties, I think we need a review thread about your Doniger. Fit pics, close-ups... Opinions etc. Looks good for the price.

Found another fancy elevator...I do not know why I am starting to have the exact facial expression like my Dad, though ...
