those 5* knits will be just fine. cut the waist band a little shorter that you think it should be, as it will stretch in due time. have the installation done so that previous stitch holes do not show.
The knitting of the jacket bottom should be folded in 2 parts which will give the right width. Check the actual length on your jacket... Add at least 1cm for the stitching.Updates : Replacements delivered . Order placed on the 01/11 arrived the 4th . 60€ the sets + 40€ shipping ( I know , I know I could/should have buy more , but I have to think about the replacment job now ! ) + 27€ DHL taxes : 127€ ( + tips for 5* not mentionned ). 2 SET OF Seal Brown Blend Knitting . Cool !
PS : I did not know that the belt band were so large !!!

Don't be sorry!! that's nice! I wasn't complaining, and that's also how we learn . I'm happy to know that this seller is a good one . Fun fact , I just bought a A2 ELC on vinted , a Air master seal brown ( I got the havana one and wanted a seal brown , if he had a RW- stand collar- in that color I would been much happier but it's the way ) We started to talk and it turns out that he is a member of the forum too . Little world !! Thank you !SORRY did not see your thread before. Not happy with the 5*star knits find them to loose..At the waistband....
Not sure to get what's you saying . Here they are deployed :those hornbeam wrist knits appear to have a seam in them.
He's referring to the knits in the eBay post above sold by Hornbeam Militaria.. and I agree they appear to have a seam.Not sure to get what's you saying .
Sorry to disagree about the better qualityQuite sure that you can find better quality and cheaper.

Oh ,yes indeed ! Icheck all the pictures and ll hve a seam . That's an uncommon way for the cuffs ,no ?He's referring to the knits in the eBay post above sold by Hornbeam Militaria.. and I agree they appear to have a seam.
Plus the knitting profile/pattern is more like for the mall jackets.Oh ,yes indeed ! Icheck all the pictures and ll hve a seam . That's an uncommon way for the cuffs ,no ?
Ahahaha ! You are right , totally right . In a perfect world their would be more than one JC to make us ALL happy !!! ahaha In a way he is a singularity , that makes him so precious , plus his talent and kindness and devotion to his Art and passion. I could /should have ask him for thses . yesIn my little world of experience…
The finest and the best are coming from JC/GW… alternatively from Mash ( as for Mash ..not all of them, only certain colors)… all others I have seen.. not up to those mentioned.
And not accurate and perhaps less solid (?)Meaning they are not knitted or woven as a tube but rather constructed from a strip of material with the ends sewn together to form a tube.
Polyamid/Polyester is always more resistant, the low cost items are a living evidence of it.And not accurate and perhaps less solid (?)
I think this refers to TaoBao, where the Chinese producers sell their products.RPS : I sometimes hear about TB here , a site to buy some good priced stuff , do you know what's TB ??? T-smething Bay ? something like that ???
