ah nm, for leathers, I can tweak those in every way. THose are sitll MTM, and have the lead time. We're putting everything in different manufacturing locations now so our eggs are basically in separate baskets... I'm hating these slow leather jacket people and I was pretty spoilt when the varsities were coming out within 4-7 days, so I want fast delivery again and am working on ways to do that. If we could, we'd bring a new piece out every week.

Maybe someday soon.

How much would you guys be willing to spend on a nice down puffer vest? I'll obviously value price it but I was really admiring the EG vest the other day and it's like 7 bills over here, lol. Ours would be divergent but I'd aim for it to be just as nice or nicer and a fraction of the cost, but I'd like to see a reasonal price in your opinions, because vests for people can range from very wearable to rarely wearable.

Honestly much as the orders may be backing up, slow leather jacket people are better than rushing it. People will wait a couple of months for something they're shelling out for rather than take a quality reduction.

^^Def, the wait doesn't bother me, because I know I'm getting a badass product.

I work kinda slow but it's because there's 2 of us pulling the weight of like 10 normal people, we're on a limited budget, ie my wallet, and we're trying to make sure everything we do next is always the next level up.

I guess we have to suffer for the faith, eh?

I agree with that and hope that people do too;

I am just paranoid because I'm 4 months into this basically, from being someone who bought stuff on these forums just like anyone else and now I am on the seller side. I am fairly well known on superfuture but I haven't posted too intensively on SF until recently. I do know however, that I don't like having money tied up into somethng I've ordered on the internet without something to show for it, just like anyone else, so I've been trying to avoid that. I haven't not delivered an order though, so trust that I'm working on it.

the duffle sounds kickass

I would love a perfect down puffer vest.

Dear Drew,

Where is my sweet, sweet, moto jacket?

Patiently waiting,

Fok.

Seconded.

Both jackets sound kickass. I take it the duffle will be the same fabric options as the pea? A grey herringbone duffle sounds awesome.

Also, maybe I missed it, are there any pictures of a completed grey moto out there yet?

The single step of putting a canvassing into each coat is costing us $20 per coat, to give you an idea. You guys would be surprised if I could tell you, but trust that if this finds its way into a store next year, it most definitely will not be a median $350 price point.

my mistake, i misread the original sentence as the MSRP of each coat will be five figures, not the production run. was having trouble wrapping my head around that.

Just wanted to say that you got balls the size of Saturn going all out on this. Really good pricing too.

Nope, no idea.
