Hi guys,

I’m planning to order a new Memphis directly from Thedi after the holidays and have some questions:

- does anyone have something in vachetta verde deerskin that could share some pictures? (I’ve only seen thedi’s pics and most are flooded with artificial yellow light).

- has anyone been successful requesting pattern changes on a Memphis? (I’d like to change the collar to ideally a stand collar but could work with something else just not the stock pointy collar, and a chest pocket delete).

- to those that have received their jacket from thedi during the year, how long was the wait from payment to delivery? (5 months seems agonizing and I wonder if it tappers down after the fall/winter season).

From my research here, I’m mostly concerned about the collar change, not sure how he’d react to that, and if my best bet would be to pick a stand collar from another one of his patterns or just provide a description and how tall I‘d want it.

Tia.

I did order a Memphis a month ago and I changed the collar to a shawl collar instead of the OG one, and there was no problems with it from Thedis side. I've talked with him on another design that was "custom" and same there, no problems at all.

Theodoros is super easy to communicate with so just shoot him an email with your ideas, and I'm sure he'll be happy to make it like you want :)

Cheers!

Thanks guys, so now I guess my biggest issue is gonna be the wait time.

Been waiting since March 9, 2024.
That’s excruciating, I hope you get to wear it this winter, which model and leather did you order?
I ordered my jacket in December 2023, received in July 2024...

Nice! I considered that since he does it on a very similar half belt and it doesn’t look too wide like on his cossack, it’ll likely be my default collar option in case he doesn’t fancy my ideas.
25 months and counting.
Say what? You must be cooking up some personal project with him and it’s likely an exceptional case, but would love to read more about it.

Our OP who started this thread, Hoosier Daddy, has been gone a little over a year now. RIP my friend.

Thank you for reminding us.

It always makes me smile to think about his two golden rules: Always have your belt covered and No! Profanity!

I asked him to make me a 1930s sports jacket in the style of the Mulholland Freewheelers in vintage teacore horsehide.
If you don’t mind, what was the cost for this and how did it turn out?

A bodie in dark forest green deerskin and no chest pocket sounds perfect, or just getting the bodie collar and no chest pocket on a memphis, fingers crossed!

I asked him if it was possible to start from his similar model MTC-127996 and make some modifications to clone the Mulholland, Theodoros is very open to suggestions... it cost me about 1900e.
I don't see anything impossible in your request, be, just be as precise as possible and support your requests with photos to avoid any misunderstanding...

So the 60 days lear time he mentions is total bs I see… or is it true for standard models? If I order it’d be a standard model in a standard size.

Looks great! Were you given any reason why it took so long other than "greatly underestimated backlog"?
