On Stranger Vests....

[Mojo Turbo]

Well Charles said that EW had a new vest fabric that I would love to see, but I hope it's better than.... THIS!

Still for the price and the look.... it could be heavily modded.

The EW fabric (its only a picture of the sample that was sent to him by his supplier) looks fantastic! It looks identical to the Hot Topic display vest.

EW sent an email to the people who were in for Angelica fabric...

Attached you will find two photos:
1)Jack Sparrow's OST screen worn vest on display
2)The supplier's cut sample of OUR production run of the same OST vest fabric
Again, I'm not offering this at this time, I need to ensure I have these in hand and to my liking before I consider offering them. We'll see how it goes over the summer.
I'm also working on a few items as well. 
Any questions,concerns, please let me know, again sorry for the inconvenience. 

Cheers

I like the thread color, and the blue looks spot on.

So when is EW's schtuff going to be available? I guess he says not yet in what you quoted from him, but I'm gettin kinda anxious...yet I don't want to be the guinea pig and be the first one to buy his fabric, lol. Also, I'm a bit scared to know how much he's going to charge for that fabric. Looking at how he's got some breeches currently up for $140 makes me a little uneasy at how high he'll charge for the vest. But then again, no pain, no gain when it comes to screen accuracy, right?

I can't believe it.

The EW definitely looks better than what else is available, but unless I could see it a little closer up I can't be sure it's the screen used stuff - it has a very distinct texture to the silk. The colours look right though.

Sometimes you gotsta be happy with what ye got!

Unless these vests will be priced at lower dollar value than what I spent on my current waistcoat I think I will stick with what I got.

If the price is reasonable and there is alot of fabric available I may consider a back up but I have a strange suspicion that we may be seeing a costume change for POTC 5!

That's what I think 2 UM

Care to elaborate? Or, is it a *SECRET* ?

[Capn_Jack_Savvy]

Costume change IMHO not anything I have heard, read, seen, etc.

Since OST was a start to finish standalone story I have a feeling Jack will make another costume change for a new story.

Again just my opinion.

Besides who knows whether or not they still have that material leftover for future waistcoats OR even if POTC 5 will be made........

[Sparrowed]

Maybe he'll be vestless...?

Picture it...A tan Captain Jack rowing his dingy alone in the open seas when a ship full of wanton female pirates fetch him outta the water! No vest needed for that!

[rockstarpirate90]

well if he does get a new waistcoat I hope for a different colour, now it looks to cartoon-ish

[Mojo Turbo]

I have it on personal authority that Jack will be changing vests for the new movie Pirates 6 (I even know the new title, but can not release it yet until my friend says it's ok), but from what he (it might be a she) has told me, Johnny loves to get involved in his costuming and has already said that he would prefer a new vest... I am hoping to get a sample pic before....

Oh man, I just can't do it!!!! I can't lie!!!!



I know nothing....

Oh man, I just can't do it!!!! I can't lie!!!!

So you lied to us by telling us the truth? That's good, I'm definitely going to use that

He says he has enough for 2 or 3 more vests

[Captain McCool]

Yep, fellow Coloradoan too. Makes some pretty rad stuff.

[Mojo Turbo]

You know with some weathering and the right buttons?

[Bilge Rat]

and you removed all the button hole trim, ( 1 because it is facing the wrong way, 2 because it is too wide, 3 they have too many button holes on the pockets yet only 3 buttons per pocket??? ), changed out the back material for something better and weather the heck out of it, it could look somewhat 1/2 way good to more better!

[Mojo Turbo]

well sure..... after all that.

[liarr]

would it really be 'worth it' though? I wonder if you could get them to just send you a vest, not put together yet..

[Captain McCool]

Well, considering that most people are selling reproduction fabric for something like $150 a bloody yard... yeah. It would probably be worth it, heh.

But I'm a bit dubious of how that shiney, obviously-synthetic screen-printed material would weather.

[Jinkxed Jack]

Well, considering that most people are selling reproduction fabric for something like $150 a bloody yard... yeah.

I wonder how much it would be without the blood on it. Or is that part of the weathering process?

[Captain McCool]

No, that costs extra
