Question.
Cam someone clarify the differences between the B3 jackets on offer, why they are all Sold Out and shipping costs and taxes?

Thanks

they ran out of sheepskin, getting a new stock in a few months. They offer different "original contracts" and then also a number of house models, the differences are in the colors posted. When ordering go over everything with Shawn. if you have an ideal looking jacket (any maker), send him a photo(s) and say, I want it like this.

also, 5 Star just moved into a new building for manufacturing which Ia m sure delays things a bit. back to their website, they could probably just consolidate all of the B-3 house listings into one listing with photos of the options but I guess the price varies a bit depending on upgrades.

Hi John,
As CBI already mentioned, they ran out of sheepskin for these jackets.
Two of the B-3s that they currently offer, the HLB and the two tone Aero, are based on originals. All the others are a reinterpretation of the B-3 by Shawn and his team, they don’t reproduce any actual contact.
Shipping costs and taxes can vary a lot depending on where you live.

Hello John you can ask SHAWN for some improvements like i did for mine : flat pocket /thinner windflap and cuffs with a fleece of 12mm thick.
Facings and overlay seams are seal brown steerhide.
