Samples - New Products We Are Working On

[Giles]

Not decided…..

[Chap]

I wouldn’t line it. The undyed back of the hide is super smooth with a wonderful honey colour… I would make the pockets of the CPO of completely undyed leather if you want them of a thinner leather, they make roe leather the same way

[Giles]

The biggest issue with the handwarmer pockets is having the pocket bag flap around.  I'l talk to Steve about how we construct the pockets and stop that happening….

I don’t have any experience with this but that was my feeling also…

[Eisenherz]

Also Mrs Kolesch advised always wearing deerskin without lining…

[Giles]

Heard and understood….

Giles that the reason we all love iron heart

Do you expect problems, when you do it in the same way you normally do @Giles ?
This deerskin is incredible durable, probably even thinner skin would do the job…

Kolesch’s themselves do the more horizontal pockets. But I wouldn’t  like them on a CPO.

[Giles]

I' think that could work, need to speak to Steve on Tuesday.  I'll also lengthen the body by an inch or so on the CPO…

Why the extra inch? When I compare size L length of CPO’s with (western) shirts, they are on average all the same (29,5 inch).

[Giles]

Thought it may be useful.  Admittedly I have done no measurements of comparisons yet  ::) ::)

@Daniel:

Great news Giles ,
how can I make sure to get one? Or will it be a continuous production?
Do you know how much they will cost in approximately?
Are there measurements of the sample ? Don’t think I can afford it , but who knows..
Best wishes
Daniel

OK folks.

I've crunched the numbers, and try as I might, I can't get the retail price to be more than USD1,300 I am afraid 

So retail on the Big Buck is USD1,300

Form an orderly queue…..

I can imagine position of the pockets with regards to a comfortable angle of the arms could have a direct effect on the length of the shirt.
But if for instance I look at the Heavy Moleskin CPO Shirt - Navy (IHSH-216-NAV), the length of size M is 29, L is 29,4 and XL is 30,2. Just like any other shirt…

[Dstauffer]

So stoked for the Big Buck!

My 2 Cents- lengthen the body an inch on both the western and CPO…my thought process is one would wear as a jacket with a shirt under putting this piece in shacket territory, am I right?

[Signal11]

I would have to disagree. If it was in shacket territory, lining would be okay too.
I think you should only wear a t-shirt or nothing under this and feel the leather on your skin.
But that’s just my 2 cents 

[Dstauffer]

Either way this thing is gonna make you look good!
