Shawn and team seem to be doing some excellent work at prices that are just unmatchable. His jackets seem to look better with wear like the recent A-1 postings. These aren't high-end maker jackets but after some wear, they seem to be looking pretty dark good and at 1/4 to 1/6 the price of the high-enders, sure changes the playing field.
Does he want to defeat Bronson and Dong?
Which brought me to the idea, if there might be a demand for a fleece-lined B-10?
The fleece-lined tankers from ATF seem to be getting good reviews....

The prices do go up as sizes do but its an edge some other makers struggle with.
As a size 48 to 50 I can really appreciate five star prices, I’m mailing off a jacket to reproduced in my size this weekYes but, I think Shawn’s way is more fair.
Per example:
Bill Kelso: 34 = £770, 36 = £770, 38 = £770, 40 = £770, 42 = £770, 44 = £770, 46 = £770, 48 = £770, 50 = £870
Five Star : 34 = £165, 36 = £170, 38 = £175, 40 = £180, 42 = £190, 44 = £200, 46 = £210, 48 = £220, 50 = £225
The point is not to blame BK, it's an example, because, I ask them for a 50.
I understand the argument that a 50 uses twice as much leather as a 36. But why the 34 and the 48 are the same price, and the 50 has to pay a high price.
..........and I know Shawn is dealing with much cheaper labor costs than many others, I know, I get it.....................
Why does the guy in the photo have no belt or any transition from shirt to trousers? Photo shopped?
