    Not as much snug as uncomprimising I would say. Doesn't only apply to jackets lol

    Happened to me as well, I ended up with a jacket a size too big. Luckily it went to someone who wore it very well. Best would be to go for measurements and fittings with a mock up.

    If it is something you would like to attempt again, I am sure we can find a better maker for the job who will get you a much better result.

    London Outerwear meetup 8th of December - Epilogue

    Yes, we could meet there at 10:00, need to get the tickets in advance though. I suspect they need at least a week notice, so all those interested, let me know asap!

    They probably used hides that had scars and other damage? I wouldn't think they would use a completely unblemished hide to emboss... would they?

    In other words, "get your feet wet" :D Reminds me we were once hiring a developer for a new project, the first interviewee started talking about undertaking a big study and maybe getting started in six months. The second said, I can have something working roughly in about 2 weeks for a starter...

    I think you need to handle them physically to figure out what you want

    They are on to something, dress in the same way as rock stars like you mean it, and you will be immune as well :D

    I am not sure it is a notion of perfection as much as a notion of functionality. I have handled a few FW and others and... I would be worried to take them riding, a rock concert etc. Not that they would necessarily be damaged, but I am still tempted to treat them like Italian fashion jackets. I...
