@Giles:

BTW Beats, give em your porn star spec - loving it….............

does it come with a sweet stick-on mustache?

[Beatle]

porno sunglasses and gold chain..

deer skin hh, yoke lined, side pockets / pocket bags(flaps) in deer skin hh / stitching only a tad darker than the leather color

gonna be one hell of a shirt - and unbelievable rugged once worn in…

I will update lining info as soon as Giles was able to get some fabric samples/pics from Will

[Giles]

Beats, he just sent me concept lining.

This screen printed on cream satin:

OK?

[Beatle]

heheh…hot...does she fit on the 15.7 shoulder ???

[Giles]

Oh, I think we can make her fit (almost anywhere)…..............

[Beatle]

supa…since I'm only gonna get that shirt made once - maybe we should decide on a final lining..

cool ?

[Beatle]

no , wait

[Seul]

I dunno what's going on, but I agree with everything Beats is posting…

[Beatle]

Gets my vote

*Giles desperately tries to get in touch with Will@Aero and asks for mods to his current projects….....

[Beatle]

and it's done…

I agreed with Haraki that on the HH version of this shirt, we offer side pockets as an option:

[madmonday]

great call on the pocket option.

i'm so stacking my pennies for this

**the G$ special is coming along really nicely

Me want!

[gbougard]

is there a way to line the leather jacket with DENIMMMMMM?

[Giles]

No, way too bulky.

Even with a satin liner, we're having to send the skins for the collar and cuffs out to a hide finisher to shave the thickness from 1.1mm to 0.5mm. (take a look at the cuff assembly of an unlined denim jacket and see how many layers have to be stitched through).

A) it would be impossible to sew utilising denim as a liner and even if we could, the end result would be way less that satisfactory….G

[babyknight]

pocket option might well be what pushes me over the edge to buy this one….

[Giles]

Tell you what BK, this takes it to another level, it really adds so much useability to the thing.  G

[babyknight]

Thanks G… yep, with the pockets this reminds me of the IHW-01 molten in terms of having real jacket or shirt flexibility.  We're all rooting for you in those price discussions for the ROW price for this one!

[Giles]

Thanks BK.  Haraki just doing some price comparison work in Japan…............
