I'm sure this kind of question is an annoyance but here goes: I won't be able to afford a jacket (A-2 bomber) until June, so what's the likelihood that MTM will still be going at that point?

I think Drew will give you a heads up, but I don't think they're going to tell you an exact date now. Someone will be able to find the quote, but he has talked about holding off on switching to John Coppidge, and he'll be focusing on ToJ stuff still. If I were a betting man, I'd say you have plenty of time. He's working on wool jackets that probably won't drop until this later spring or summerish, and I'm guessing those will be under the ToJ namesake -- so you'll have plenty of time to get MTM. But save everything. Sell your plasma and *****. Get it.

Keep in mind adjustable lengths are supposed to be around for a while, so unless you have really odd proportions, you should have nothing to worry about if full MTM is gone.

I'm also probably in for a helmet bag. Like previous people have posted, it depends on the price (though it's not big issue unless its really high), and what other bags are coming out (if any).

this is the problem with gauging interest in a piece. everyone expresses their interest and verbally commits initially, but when push comes to shove, they all flake. when i tried to organize a daypack run, i had 10 people agree to purchase (the daypack was 200 dollars). as soon as we had enough people, EVERYONE, and i do mean EVERYONE (except me), flaked. so honestly, i don't trust any of you, and neither should drew unless he gets a deposit from everyone who wants one.

Not all product runs off interest failed tho, the second bball jacket run worked out. But we did it by deposit method. So if you are in, you pay a deposit and once enough deposits are in then the run will be made. Else if the interest (in the form of a deposit) is not high enough then the deposits refunded.

I'd be down for that, but it would all depend on price again.

I'd chip in for lamb daypack

I feel like a daypack would sell more than the helmet bag.
I'm not even halfway through undergrad so a daypack is more useful to me

I don't think most people ITT have shopped for quality leather bags before. It's almost impossible to find design and quality for under $1500. Many brands only offer one of the two and charge more.
