I'm in love.

What parts did you do? Obviously the chevrons & the star. Did you do any leatherwork, too? Did you follow a pattern, or do it entirely on your own?

First of all I took the measures of the arms and chest cutting in the right place , I had to tighten the sleeves , after I compared many pictures of Bono Jacket during Elevation era to see the exact proportions beetween the silver grades and the shoulder and also the dimension and color of the star, so I made by myself the militar grades using silver leather and for the red star I used a piece of strong red cotton , for the finish seams and zip I ask to a leatherworker after I will put pictures of others two Jackets one similar to the promo of ATYCLB and the other like the first leg of Elevation tour when bono used a more big punched red star in leather ( not cotton )

Just studied his jackets alot... plus it helps to know somebody that can help assemble the ideas... lol We made THIS jacket from scratch.. and ive got one in the works that looks like the jacket that Bono wore during the Boston show (elevation tour dvd) and on "U2 does much" show... that's my favorite jacket!
