Good god that jacket is gorgeous. But it being anything less than $500 would be surprising to me. Woolrich's own Peacoat is like $900.

If it was "affordable" by NS standards then it would fall way bellow the level of quality Pete is going for

I was assuming probably around 450, but if it's even a little close to 900 that would be insane. I still have my OG jiberish wool coat and I believe that one wasn't over 200

It's won't be $900. But Woolrich's Wool is really high quality but with that comes the price of it. Even partnering with them it still costs so much more for the fabric than people probably realize. It will be just under $400, but at a quality level that could pretty easily be $600 or more.

The older Jiberish jacket is a much lighter weight jacket and the wool is a lower priced fabric. But that is a nice piece too, just a different type of jacket. This one is warmer, heavier, and requires a lot more fabric due to the fit.

Hope that helps. The jacket it pretty incredible in person.

When is the winter stuff from the pre-order shipping? I know sometime in November, obviously, but do we have a more specific date at this point?

It comes in 1 color and in real life it is a tad darker than the image shows and with a hint of blue in the heather. Our website pic will have a more accurate depiction of it when it goes live.

Ignant neopreme fabric? smart choice. Lil water repellent action. Anticipating this quilted chambray. WWM pieces look great. No varsities? Didn't want to blow the $$$ on some UNIS leather.

The Ignants are made of 1000 Denier Cordura. They aren't waterproof in the traditional sense but they will repel it. They were more designed to be rugged and workwear sensible. Construction and materials are very high quality.

No Varsity for this Winter, but the Winter 14/15 Varsity is flat out disrespectful to other Varsity jackets. Samples are outrageous....fusion of menswear and tech like I've never seen. That is a topic for next year though.

The brown/blue ignant is by far and away my favorite one yet. It even works well for fitted styles, like mine these past couple of years

To any of the Jiberish guys,

What would you think if someone showed you this picture back when you started the brand?

I think its really interesting how far you guys have come from your original image. I'm not saying its a bad thing, all artists' styles mature with time.

Got an email from jiberish saying that they won't even receive the winter drop for another 3 weeks. I understand that this is obviously them working their hardest but I feel like the preorders shouldn't have been so far from when people will receive their shit. I mean it'll be another month at least befor I see what I've paid 500 bucks for. I don't even know if this stuff is going to fit me.

If the holiday drop is the same then I won't get a winter coat until winter is half over.

Also what is it about the woolrich jacket that would make it worth 600? Not questioning the integrity of the jacket just wondering what kind of work needs to be put I to a garment to warrant such a claim.

WWM is lead by Mark McNairy... ( http://shop.markmcnairy.com/collections/clothes-all/ ). Just like some companies specialize in leather, WWM specializes in quality wool and twill pieces. Look at this field jacket at UNIONMADE ( http://www.unionmadegoods.com/woolrich_woolen_mills_Twill_Field_Jacket_in_Olive_10632.html ) or this trench at NeedSupply ( http://needsupply.com/mens/brands/woolrich-woolen-mills/balmac-coat.html )

Every company has a distributor. Jiberish has wool and calfskin leather varsities last winter that were still priced great. Look at Supreme's latest wool trench that dropped this morning...it's all relevant and also a staple to have in for the colder months. You're not going to have 3 different types of these coats in your closet either, unless you're shopping at macy's - so you spend the money on something you wont outgrow.

You can buy a pair of old Stan Smith's or some all white Nike AC's that are 'leather' but you're not going to get the longevity and detail from Common Projects or a pair of Yuketens.

Even the WWM hats for Jiberish with the deadstocked patterns...gonna be $60+ I assume

Agreed. It is not what initally advertised which is a disapointment. However, jiberish at least wrote us an email to keep us informed about the situation... But it is still a bummer.

I was hoping this wasn't the case...

Nervous about spending $60+ on a hat without trying it on first.

Hell no, we wouldn't have envisioned that, haha. We didn't have any money, any connections, or any idea what we were doing back when we started. It was more of an expensive hobby for the first 5 years rather than a business. We worked full time and dumped everything we had into it. Now, every once in a while we sit around and laugh over all the challenges we've had in growing this brand and the funniest stories are from those early days. If you ever catch me out somewhere as me to tell you a few.

Cool to hear!

What makes this chair a Jiberish creation, and not just a rebranded trendy camping chair?

We said in all of our communication that we would be shipping items from the Winter release in November. Did you read somewhere else something different? Nothing has changed and we will be shipping in November as we have said all along. Holiday ships in December, but that is a different range and that is available for purchase tomorrow.

We do the pre-order so people can reserve items that they want. A number of styles, colors, and sizes are sold-out already and the clothing has not yet arrived so those customers are getting pieces that are no longer available. If you like, we can cancel anyone's order, no problem at all. Just email us. We get contacted daily from people trying to track down Inspector Jackets, Divided Jackets, Boot Knockers, and other pieces that are either entirely sold-out or only have odd sizes left. We also gave away free backpacks to the first 200 customers and a free $75 item to anyones order over $150 for the first week. We weren't required to do that, but we wanted to because we appreciate the support we have gotten. In addition to that we also are shipping everyone's orders for free who ordered during the first 2 weeks. I personally thought that was pretty thoughtful and generous.

Now, don't take this the wrong way... but, what is it that you would like us to apologize for? We are shipping when we said we would ship, we gave away tens of thousands of dollars in product, and we are shipping for free. If we mislead you in anyway then I apologize. I thought we were quite clear in every bit of communication we posted though.

Sure you could wait until the stuff gets here to order and for those who are not picky with regards to color or sizes, they can find something they might like. But for the customers who know what they want we like to let them reserve it in advance. We don't make a lot of our clothing and it tends to sell pretty quickly.

We know 2 months is a long pre-sale and it is why we offer the benefits we did. If anyone disagrees with anyone I wrote above and still feels ripped-off or mislead, than you can always hit us up and know that we will get back to you with some thought and consideration regarding your complaint.

We are a little busy getting ready for this Holiday release so it may take a day or two for a response right now, but know that we are on it and will get back to you.

Thx

Pete
