Aces High Irvin jackets

[Jonnyboy]

Hi Guys,

Happy Festive Season to one and all!

I’ll only be making a very small number of jackets next year, so if you are interested in placing an order please let me know. I’ll probably be making only four or five jackets, so once my order book is full, that will be it for 2017. It will use up my remaining sheepskins, which were part of a large order which I’ve been working my way through.

At the moment, I'm unsure whether to continue after these jackets are finished. I would need to order another large batch of sheepskins (which is a big financial outlay). As a small, one-person operation, it hasn’t worked out particularly profitable making jackets, given the high cost of materials and time it takes me to make each jacket, so my other work (design projects and painting) has been necessary to help make ends meet. It’s really been a labour of love, but I’m not sure whether I will continue to make Irvins for much longer, so these are likely to be my last jackets.

Cheers,

Jon

Thanks for the update. Do I have a week or two to decide?

Absolutely - there's no mad rush, but it is on a first come first served basis. Once the order book is full, that's it!

Cheers,
