I wish that you wouldn't jump to conclusions, or make unsubstantiated claims about what I am or am not planning.Yeah, as I said Drew didn't invent DRs. And Mercedes didn't invent cars. But most of the people in this thread will agree most of the DRs from different makers don't look alike that much. Who can't tell Vanson's DR from TOJ's, for example.
But also, I guess you're all thiking of the "typical" black DR or moto. But I ordered this jacket:
I'm not aware of any other maker doing that same configuration and in that leather. Maybe it's some particular design that already existed, don't know, but to me it looks quite unique. What if Luxire offered a 5-zip clone as a standard option? Would that be ok too?
If Charly and Dan did really design several or all the jackets with Drew and not just gave a bit of input here and there, then fine. They'll know which designs they feel entitled to use, pretty much like when a band breaks up and only whoever wrote the song keeps singing it at concerts.
But Luxire has no business with Drew's designs, and although Fok's message sounded to me as if they were going to do TOJ clones, I'll wait and see how similar they are.
Finally, I couldn't care less about legal stuff. That only concerns lawyers and people involved. Yes I was talking about ethics. Someone's wrongdoing doesn't entitle others to do the same.
And this is coming from someone who is superpissed that the jacket he ordered in Feb 2014 is still far, far a way if it ever comes.
So, nearly none of that was funny, but I do think that fringe (well, suede fringe) can be sorta cool. I have a bunch of jackets (mostly women's) fromthe 70s with fringe. A lot of them were from fashion brands of the time, but a fair number of them were very obviously artisan made, and the amount of time to make the jackets would have been quite high. No, not going to offer fringe for me right now, even though it was a mini-trend in women's not so long ago, but I sorta like it, and definitely like braided leather seams.P.S. Fringe on the sleeves will be extra.
lol. Very possibly true though. "Thank you higher power for Charly and Dan and Fok and Luxire and Thurston and Vanson".Drew in the shadows, thankful all this happy and hopeful talk is going on.
As I said before, got my DR (lamb) a few weeks ago and have been wearing it non-stop on nights I go out. Wearing her in is making it drape even better now. Been doing well with the ladies as of late, coincidence?
Or if she is attracted to you.Absolutely a coincidence. No woman worth her salt is going to date you just because you own a nice leather jacket. She tends to care about more important things, like whether you're a good man who treats her with respect and consideration.
I see someone mentioned the chesterfield and fishtail (both of which, we may offer a bit down the line).
Anything else on the wish list?
