IHF-VAR - Forum Varsity

[PETEROCK1]

Nice! I was thinking of getting a Nike Destroyer, now this will take it's place. G, out of curiosity, what is my #?

Are those the set colors for the chenille IH letters?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks G…if numbers were on my Varsity, people would probably think I'm from Brooklyn, haha....."Brooklyyyyyn Zoo!!!!"

Word to ODB (rip).

I'm 4

[hectic]

Unlucky 4?

[DougNg]

4 is an unlucky number in Asian cultures

Sounds like the word for "death"

[llvlaglne]

i'm probably 3000ish

anything on the back of the jacket?

[Giles]

Nothing planned…

[FurattoHeddo]

What's my number?

[madmonday]

Maybe an option should be the year the person  joined the forum instead of the forUm membership number or the number of your favorite IH product like " 21" if you are into the ihsh-21 or 634 if those are your thing?

[llvlaglne]

that would be a great idea. probably the year you joined in an arc shape on the shoulder.

[Giles]

I don't mind number it is, but it will have to be what I choose of in terms of font and colour, otherwise I may just as well shut up shop for a month whilst I order a million and one bespoke Chenille patches.  The base jacket will come with IH on the front.  If you want to pimp it yourself, then no probs…

Furatto = 331

4262 eh? that would take a lot of space in the varsity, wouldn't it?
Hahaha, thanks G!

The leather on that looks so luxurious.. 
So elegant..

Curious if you've got any ballpark idea when these will go into production/be available.
(And my #)…

The gating factor here is the chenille patches.  I hope to start making the jackets in about 4 weeks.  I'll keep orders open for months though…...

I'm sold…!
well done gentlemen...

These look great. I will definitely be getting this. I've been looking at Golden Bear X Unionmade for awhile but this is only about $100 more AND has Aero Leather arms.  :o

I'm gonna throw this out there and it would be quite expensive but my roommate actually started and headed up the Nike Bowery Custom shop for over a year. He was the art director for that project in the beginning. He did almost all the celebrity jackets and I took images of them for Nike. Anyways, if any of you in NYC get this jacket I'm sure my roommate could help you out getting it customized even further than what Giles would have time to do.

He also knows how to do chain stitch embroidery pretty well and has the machine at his office. Now, the only issue I see is he can't do any of this stuff if it's lined or else you have to take the lining out/put back in. That can be very expensive. I'm assuming these are lined.

I'll talk to him about this more and see what his thoughts are.

Here's an example he designed and I took the pics

Examples of his first try on the chain stitch embroidery machine

Edit: he said when he found it, it was broken and there's only one guy in America that knows how to fix them. That guy said he was one of like 3-4 people in the US that actually had one.
