My Evander took a bit longer. Order placed March 9, 2024 and arrived January 4, 2025 or 301 calendar days.
The jacket is wonderful! Without hesitation, I immediately ordered a Memphis, and expect to see it late fall 2025.

Did he quote you 60 days as well?

Looks like he’s doing a show in China next week.

Anyone hear from the guy recently?

I was in contact with Theodoros just yesterday. He's been in China for a few days since today. So don't worry, this guy is very active!

I received an email from Theodoros today saying my jacket was completed. The order was invoiced on February 5 so just about 60 days for completion.

I've had a couple of jackets made by Thedi and this one was the fastest - the others were closer to 90ish days.

Question for the people that have experience with https://thedi-leathers.com/product/mtc-127915/ / Hektor:

How is the mobility on the back? Is the middle seam important for functionality or mostly decorative? Would swapping it out for a "cleaner" back such as this one be really impactful (imagining that the half belt is kept in)?

I have a Hektor that fits perfectly. It is one of Thedi's secret to make a jacket that fits and feels tight but allows great movement. While ordering the jacket, I asked Theodoros what the purpose of the center seam was. He answered it was designed for fit, adding it was not a straight line. This topic was discussed in detail before, if I can find it I'll post the link, but it amounts to building a pattern that follows the curve of the back. In other words, it's not flat. So I wouldn't ask to simplify the pattern. it's perfect the way it is.
