Thedi Leathers, thoughts?

[trapp]

Very nice looking jacket. The shawl collar seems to be shaped or perhaps proportioned differently than others I've seen.

Carrie can hook you up PAWineguy!

Haha, I've got one from her already, but she only carries her 3 make ups and so you cannot custom order through Thurston, you have to go directly to Thedi for the more exotic stuff. I wear my Thedi as much or more than any other jacket that I own.

+1, I wish we had easier access to his wares, he's a terrific designer.

I thank you for your kind words.

Theodoros makes outstanding jackets, and very helpful as well.

I will second this opinion. Theodoros has been EXCEPTIONALLY kind in regards to customer service. He usually replies to emails within 24 hours (an amazing feat in itself since he is also the one creating all of his leather products) and he has shown to be very honest and passionate about his art. I won't hesitate to consider him for my next jacket purchase.

I think the above summarizes Theodoros exactly very kind and helpful guy.

Time for a bump here!
Theodoros is doing some fantastic work these days. Wow to the Buffalo:

Those look fantastic. I really like the middle button front jacket.

The Thedi iteration of the J-100 has been on my radar for some time now, particularly since PAWINEGUY posted his since he and I are very close to the same size, including both of us with long arms and legs. The lighter weight HH used on that particular jacket is very appealing as a mild weather one to grab from one's closet on the fly. If I hadn't been out of the country when he decided to sell it, I might have beaten Dan to the punch.

Bunyip, is that the jacket with the very cool action-back we saw just the other day on another thread? The pics don't show the entire back. Also, any ballpark figures on the prices?

The one in the middle is the Escape From New York jacket, innit?

 

[Sloan1874]

Love the buttoned bootlegger.

I think they make the VAT very hard if not impossible for an individual to collect. I may be wrong but i think one needs the seller to enroll in the EU tax plan for exporting. I'd love to save the 23%, anyone know how?

Buy one secondhand from someone else [emoji6]

I've got Scotsman blood so here was my plan. I live in Athens and would fly up to Thessaloniki, pick out the leather, style and get fitted. Have the jacket sent back to Iowa and have it waiting for spring or fall farm work when i'm back in the States, fly back with said jacket. Yes I'm also naughty in my dreams but I'm a realist and maybe one day soon very soon I'll ante up full pony .

Aren't Thedi and Bill Kelso one and the same ?

Been denied by both companies, who've also denied all prior knowledge of each other.

 

[handymike]

Correct Edward, they ARE NOT related.

 

[Fanch]

But aren't they both located in Greece. If so, they must be related!

 

[AdeeC]

I believe they are both located in Thessaloniki. Ken from Aero thinks they are the same mob.
