Young Medic,
Thanks for posting the jacket pictures. Would you be able to post measurements of the jacket or did you buy "off the rack"?
Regards,
Don

It is an off the rack 44 and made exactly as advertised. I'm 5'10 athletic build with 40sih in chest. I have found that a 22.5 -23 in pit to put and an 18.5 in shoulder is a very comfy jacket for me to wear

I wouldn't call it a chemical smell. What it reminds me of is the smell of inexpensive wallets and purses you would smell in a department store. My Werber and A1 smelled the same. It was not unpleasant and faded after about a month of wear.

Looks great on you and have always liked this contract- easy to wear!

Wow, that’s a fantastic looking jacket

Just reread the thread and the steer-hide looks really nice! How's it holding up?

That jacket looks awesome . Nicely done with the display stand .

That steer hide is bullet proof. I’ve been wearing the hell out of my Poughkeepsie for 6 month and it looks as new as the day I got it. All it’s done it soften up.

That’s the fit I like. Totally functional.

The jacket looks very nice especïally with the NOS Talon Zipper ! Enjoy wearing it !!

A pitty that FS still use the wrong type of press studs with a very poor and sloppy setting.... ( noticed the same on the FS B-3 ).

I think poughkeepsie used this type of snap originally.

congratulations on your purchase because fivestar make good leather at resonable prices but in addition you wear it well, it has a very beautiful color, I have a rough wear in very soft goatskin from them and it's the same feeling that you. happy holidays, cordially

Could you post some fit pics after a few months wear? What do you think about the fit?

Its very good, I specified an off the rack measurements and after looking at other poughkeepsie examples I think Shawn had a short body template and .5-1 inches could be added to the body but the fit is great. Ill grab some pics. Anything you looking for specifically?
