Custom coats [pics from the second batch!]

New Post

Ok, I spent the day working on a completely new order form, which is now downloadable and includes a ton of pictures showing all the fabrics and colors available. Hopefully it’ll be a LOT easier to use than before. I’ve also added a few new styles to the catalog, so check them out.

Download the order form here:

This is amazing! I might have to order one soon.

Out of interest Eric, was this middle-man/exporter role something you envisaged when you first went out to China, or was it something you decided to do after you started seeing all the possibilities of getting your own custom stuff made?

Honestly, it’s something I wanted to avoid doing since I figured it’d be a headache, but after getting everything in place mentally, I think I know how to expedite the process. It’s all trial and error though. If it’s too hassle, I’ll stop!

But the reason I came wasn’t for business. I wanted to do something drastic with my life and really have an experience I’d never forget. It’s already been that and more.

Don’t know. I’m trying not to go crazy, so I want to start of sloooow with it all. I’m still running LF in the US and now here too! It’s a lot to juggle.

Haha...you might be. I guess you’d have to figure that out if you’re going to do it. I know you told my partner that the shirts weren’t possible right now. It’s good to see the coats are a possibility. I like to thank you for offering your services and being so helpful.

man that is nice.... I have never tried this style coat on honestly... may have to run to a store and see if i can pull it off...

Another thing to keep in mind is that the style becomes a lot more casual if you just shorten the jacket. And the length and measurement is all completely up to you guys. When you know what style/color/pattern you want, I’ll send you a PDF will all the measurements I need and you can adjust this accordingly. My point being, there’s a lot of flexibility in the style.
gangnath said 9 months ago

These look great...did I miss how we’re picking the color/pattern -- is it literally what’s in the picture is what’s available to choose from? Or do you have a swatch chart or something similar with more colors/patterns?
Will Petersen said 9 months ago

I got a suit tailor made in Oman (Middle East). Picked the material, lining, number of buttons, number of vents, & it fits so nicely. Only cost £90, which is b-loody cheap for a tailored suit. Got nice narrow trousers (skinny) & a fitted jacket, wassum.

quakerninja said 9 months ago

I like E, with the pockets of G, with keith buttons and that pattern you have on the business cards for the interior. That would be ideal, but hopefully you get the idea. I’ll even buy one on preorder sight unseen to get the ball rolling. This is huge man, I am so proud of how far you have come and where you are headed Eric. All the best.

I’m thinking the F or H style, with dark charcoal or black tweed, whatever’s available, and a deep purple/plum lining. it’ll be like senior prom all over again for me.

I will be contacting you shortly for sure. I am 100% interested.

I don’t remember the response but I know somone asked this in the coats thread (but I’m on my phone and too lazy to dig it up); did yours have a hood as
a collar?? If so is that an option for any of the styles listed above?

Oops, should’ve been more clear: once you know the style you want, email me and I’ll send you a PDF with the measurements I need. It has garment pics and shows how to measure. So it’s COMPLETELY custom-tailored. Nothing is stock. Each is made by hand from scratch.

Yep, I can add a hood if that’s what you want, but it will be an extra charge of $2-3.

sittingduck said: so wait, we can do one off orders on these? totally getting one next week, just moved to bellingham and it’s FREEZING up here! h looks pretty awesome too.

Yes, these prices are for one offs. Since this isn’t some huge factory, they can do them no problem, but there aren’t huge price breaks for getting more than one done.

Can do ladies too, but it has to be along the same general style as the jackets above. If you want, find me a pic online of what you’re looking for and shoot me an email and we’ll talk.

gangnath said: These look great...did I miss how we’re picking the color/pattern -- is it literally what’s in the picture is what’s available to choose from? Or do you have a swatch chart or something similar with more colors/patterns?

Yes, it’s according to the pics here. If you have a special request I can poke around the stock room to see if it’s available, but if it’s a special patterned fabric you want, they probably don’t have it. That’s why I’m encouraging folks to stick with tweed or wool like the pics, and then go for a colored lining. I really recommend going for a quilted lining (not pictured, sorry!). It’s much warmer as a jacket insert.

I must have one of these coats. I have seen a similar Versace coat to the 4th pic that was $800+ (and that was the sale price). We will be talking soon. How do the sizes run? Hopefully nothing like H&M because they don’t carry my size (wide shoulders).

These are one-offs, made to your specific measurements. It’ll fit perfectly.
dcbeatty said 9 months ago

This is so sick. But any chance you could post the quilted pics soon? I’m starting to freeze here in Utah, so I’d love one of these, but I’m wondering what the quilted looks like. I’d love some extra warmth, but I’m guessing it will be warm enough without so it kinda comes down to what it looks like for me.

disembodied head said 9 months ago

very nice. I like the G and H coat styles, although the collar on the H style looks too big. I wonder if the seamstress could incorporate the collar from the G style coat to the H style body? either way, those are some great prices

Yup, easy. All customizations are available. The only limitation is what fabric is in the shop. But if you see it in the pictures above, it can be done. Heck, you can design your own jacket if you want.
molasses4masses said 9 months ago

Hey man, what model was yours based on? Or was yours totally custom? Just curious.
disembodied head said 9 months ago

i’m assuming they can also do plain backs, correct? not sure i’m feelin’the #1 and #2 backs you have pictured
Matt Willmott said 9 months ago

disembodied head said: i’m assuming they can also do plain backs, correct? not sure i’m feelin’the #1 and #2 backs you have pictured

+1. I’d like to know that. Me and my bro are both super interested.

Can you choose stuff like inside pockets, number of pockets on outside etc etc? I know it’ll add a few dollars a time, i’m just wondering.

Also regarding the measurements, specifically a, b, c and e, would it be from one side to another (like left to right side of chest) or all the way around?
Enso Threads said 9 months ago

In the spreadsheet picture it lists prices for Plain Back, Single Vent, Double Vent, and the two backs pictured.

OrangeMarshall said 9 months ago

Can these be made as only Single Breasted? I’m too short to pull of double breasted trench coats. I wouldn’t normally ask because i understand these are fully tailored, but i believe converting double breasted to single breasted would change the structure of the collars. (no puns intended)
dovemans said 9 months ago

What payment methods do you accept, and do you ship to belgium?
Linty Fresh said 9 months ago

Ok, let me be more specific: there are only 2 limitations with these jackets:

1. Available fabric and hardware
2. Your imagination

People have been emailing me about hoodies and sweaters and while I’m curious about that too, this place doesn’t carry those kinds of fabrics. They specialize in coats, wool and tweed. In the future, if I find another place, or they start carrying cottons and fleece, we can do hoodies, but for now, I’m just offering coats.

Fabric limitations also mean she’s not going to have special patterns that you may want to include. She’s got some flanel, but not every type you see online.

As for pockets, buttons, zippers, etc, it’s all possible to do. But I need a picture to work form. If you find a jacket online that is wool, send me the picture and we’ll go from there.

Again, though please take a look at the order form I’ve set up. It answers most of your questions here. I’ve edited it, too, so it’s all on one page and you can see all the items at once.

Let’s make some coats people!

god I can’t wait to order mine, i’m going to go with H with like a charcoal colored heavy wool, black buttons (like the snap ones you pointed out in the vid) and a bright blue (similar to aa’s teal) quilted liner. I also want a hood on it with the same liner in the hood. I’ll fill out the form when I’m ready to get it of course :). So that I get this right, how do I go about doing the measurements? should I measure a coat I have that already fits me perfectly? or do I measure my self and the jacket is made based on that? (kinda like getting measured for a suit?) Anyway, keep doing what you’re doing man!

This is all in the order form, but yes, measure yourself, not another coat. You can also specify if you want a snug fit or a loose fit, but otherwise she’ll just go with the style of the pic you choose.

nomhak said 9 months ago

Awesome stuff man.

I think the reason its taking time to get rolling is because as much as you’ve already tried to explain - this is still rather vague. Even so its well worth the go on my end to at least get a quote on what it’d cost and put an order through than from there determine if its worth it. Expect me to be making an order in the near future for sure.

If possible and if clients accept show us some examples of some jackets being produced.

The cost alone is staggering. The last jacket I purchased was $280.

I hope enough people order to make it worth your penny, definitely worth giving some more time!

i’m sure some of you might find this incredibly ghey but i’d like to have my own custom black wool coat inspired by the Battlestar Galactica dress blues. it would be similar to the cut of the top half of the uniform, minus the shoulder patches and the giant cuffs. I especially like the collar and button flap.

Yeah, I apologize for the vagueness, I’ve been working with a lot of people and a better system is working itself out in my mind, I just need to figure out how to implement it. Ideally I’d have a website where people could select all the features in one place, but I don’t know if I want to commit that much to this, since I’m just starting.

Roccanti said: Wow this is amazing. I really want to do this as well. Ive been trying to find me the perfect coat and haven’t been able too. The only real question I had which I didn’t see was how long does it take? Maybe I overlooked it.

Give it a month from the order date to you receiving it, although it’ll probably be quicker.

Both me and my wife are currently searching the internet for our dream coat. We both want to do this.

Yes, the shipping is just an extra $10 per additional jacket. Not sure what your style is, but check out urbanoutfitters.com. They’ve got a lot of great coats.

haha, the other day i was thinking it would be cool to make something like what your saying. but you can keep the idea bc i would def leave cookies or something in all the pockets and have a coat full of crumbs
quakerninja said 9 months ago

There are a lot of dollars that go into designing things, I’m sure there are some good reasons for why pocket coats are not on the shelves. I think it would be uncomfortable to have all pockets as I put a great deal of pokey things in my pockets keys and pens and what not.
I don’t want to sit on those or place them in hard to reach places. I do have a coat that has 4 pockets on the front, one big set for stuff, and one set smaller set with warm innards for my hands, that I enjoy. I’ll put some thought into it.

I might be missing something, but I’m not seeing any costs on either the .docx or the .pdf?

Each style comes as a base cost, depending on the complexity and labor involved of that particular style. Those costs are noted when you select the style. Other options, like adding a hood or a high-quality lining, incur other costs. Once the forms are turned back in to me I respond with a final cost, including shipping, and when I receive payment I submit the form for production.

This is all explained on the last page.

This is awesome as hell. I just emailed you and after the details will be purchasing one this weekend.

Ok, thanks man. Thought that’s how it was going to work, but didn’t want to miss anything obvious.
Linty Fresh said 9 months ago

First batch is done and they look incredible! My personal fave is Julian’s. Check it:

Julian’s: Base style G with added hood, navy blue quilted lining. Snap enclosures + zippered front. (So awesome! I’m gonna get one for myself now!)

Josh had 2 made:

Josh #1: Base style F with hood added, plum quilted lining.

Josh #2: Base style F simplified (no shoulder or wrist straps), royal blue satin lining.

Want one? Hit me up:

Part of that is that I’m probably a little smaller than Josh, so I don’t fill out the coat as much as he will. But my roomie is the same dimensions as Julian.

Aha. Just keep eating that stuff you’ve been showing in your video’s, you’ll get there!
Blake Fathom said 9 months ago

I’m thinking I might get one made, keeping the hood and inner layer the same colour, but having the rest of the coat a darker grey, giving the look that I’m wearing a hoodie underneath.

Think that could work?

They’ve got this same herringbone in a black/white combo, which looks like a light grey, but if you want a solid color, you’d have to use wool.

Julian’s is exactly the kind of coat i’m looking for. I just might have to get one with the black & white combo...
sittingduck said 9 months ago

is there a good asphalt gray in the heavy wool for the exterior? I saw some lighter grays and what looks to be black on the order form. I don’t wanna be a pain in the ass, but I think an asphalt gray would look better than black with what I have in mind. something similar to this:

sorry for the creepy aa model, it was the best representation i could find of the color I’m looking for :D
collisiontheory said 9 months ago

Eric!! These are fantastic! I wish it was cold enough here in my country so I could rock some of these!

The picture you posted looks bluish, but if you’re talking about the actual AA asphalt, I can probably match it (or get really close) with a wool blend. Is that what you wanted? Email me.

Hey Eric is that red plaid the only plaid available?

Cheyne said: Hey Eric is that red plaid the only plaid available?

Nope there are others. Too many to catalog. I obviously can’t get a hold of every possible plaid, but if you have one you like, send a pic.

Linty Fresh said 9 months ago

$75
Hillman said 9 months ago

This one is so close to the one I was planning out Im actually a little bummed...but on the other hand I know its going to look super sexy!
Linty Fresh said 9 months ago

I’m designing my next coat now. It’ll be based on the F style, but sewn to be slim fitted. Black wool, black buttons, but sky blue stitching for the buttons and sky blue buttons for the cuffs. Short collar, removable hood. I’m stoked.
deekin said 9 months ago

godsloadedsociety said 9 months ago

wow. maybe in the new year for me... i hope this is still a project then; perhaps even some new ones!

Hey, Miss Etti wants to know if you can do girl’s coats? If so, any pics of styles?

Yup, I can do girls' coats too. I just need a pic to work from. The styles I found in my tailor’s catalog were just "eh". Try urbanoutfitters and gap online for ideas!

SirEuan said 9 months ago

yea i mean aa’s asphalt, not the blueish version in the pic. I’ll shoot you an email with the details on friday when I get the funds in order (wouldn’t want to put in an order and have you wait, drives me nuts when people do that to me).
Linty Fresh said 9 months ago

Yep, that’s what I meant. Sounds good. We’ll be in touch.

{miles to go} said 9 months ago

im sure these are tons of work eric. the prices are kind of ridiculous, even for china, with them being custom. maybe up the price $10 a coat or something. wouldnt really deter people. theres no way anyone is going to find a one off custom coat how they want it for anything close to that anywhere and its gotta be worth your time. you could have a whole website for just this and probably kill it.

Ha! I appreciate the sentiment, but I’m making enough off each job to make it worth my while. I’ll continue offering these prices so long as I feel it’s a fair profit for the work.
