Post by Jesse »

It is a (movie) fact that the original Warriors vests worn by the cast were pleather... fake leather... so why are all these A1 american flag and ebay and allselling so called official and genuine di cast authentic "l :roll:Leather :roll:" vests and saying there official! idk id like to own both leather and pleather! but it pees me off when i see the ugly brown or tan vests that look nothin like the movie ones! i like those crimson red er brick red ones better! on both questions ... what do u think! :shock:!

pleather now costs more then leather, so producers want to keep these projects cost-efficient. though i do think that if they used pleather and made these vests absolutely perfect, the cost would be worth it.

Yeah, tell me about it.  Pleather could make a vest cost twice as much now (weird, I know).  I think we finally have a good solution in using a super soft leather for our new vests.  I'll have some pics up tomorrow evening (u.s. time), and I'd be very interested in what you guys think.
