Nope, upcharge on top of his previous Badalassi pricing. His base price used to be £850 for Badalassi, £1000 for Shinki.
For some reason almost everyone wanted Shinki and therefore he discontinued the Badalassi. Only available on custom order now. The Badalassi hides have to be split first because they come in at 1.5 - 1.7 mm thickness which is too thick to work with. So if you think 1.3 mm Badalassi is too sturdy you could also choose to have it skived down to 1mm. Greg is now asking £900 for Badalassi.
I'm sure Greg knows how thick the hide aero uses on the jackets they make. That is definitely a great price for what Greg is offering it at. Also since he has his own skiving machine now, we can specify desired jacket thickness.
