Leather Jacket Enthusiasts Question
#41
I am not convinced the jacket was made just for the film. The jacket that Martin Lawrence wears is an off-the-rack Willie G jacket. At first I thought the eagle was embossed, but once I received the jacket and found that it was finely stitched embroidery instead - I think they used an off the rack HD Maverick jacket.
Sometimes with the softer leathers like this, it is possible to remove the stitching, then wet the leather with hot water. The water swells the leather a little and closes the fine stitch holes. Larger holes and stiffer leather are an issue though.
Even if the stitching holes are visible to the naked eye, they may not be visible on camera since most of the jacket was covered with the WH patch.
