Add khaki and brown and you have me sold. you guys should do pants! this is a good idea for a business. also, what is the inside of the jacket made of? any ventilation? mesh? insulation?

yeah if you guys made pants, and once i hear more reviews on the jackets (dont doubt the quality but i just want to hear more on here from people who have them), i would definitely buy a full, custom fit suit. assuming the price isnt rediculous, and is competitive with other brands (slightly higher is fine, but i dont have 600 to spend).

wouldnt be for maybe two years because i bought new stuff this year though

No, it does not. It appears that way due to the angle the jacket was shot at.

These are sick aF. 300$ seems a little pricey for a shell tho. It would be cool if you had the custom option, and a store option with just solid colors for cheaper.

We currently have 3 employees.

Custom jackets take 2-3 weeks to go through our manufacturing process. We then ship to you depending on the shipping preference you selected. Our goal is for customers to have their custom jackets within 3 weeks time.

As we grow, we look to minimize manufacturing time - however, at this time we would rather provide a quality product vs. an extremely quick turn around time.

Hey guys, your concept and design seems to be pretty fresh. I really like the way customers can choose zipper orientation. It provides a unique and different service than other custom outerwear companies offer. However I know in my case and I can assume in the case of certain others 15k waterproofing and critically taped seams isn't really tech enough. I understand that perhaps your trying not to isolate the park market by sticking too large a price tag associated with features they deem not as important on your product. Are there plans to offer customization on the level of tech of the product, such as fully taped seams or a 20k/20k+ rating.
