another vest

[CAZ]

hey guys, i know i do this often, but heres another vest. this one unlike the last billion i've seen, is a medium. so it might not hang off you bad. and i think it's cut a little better

if you want me to stop showin these vests, i'll stop.

[Good guy]

actually i think that this vest is one of the best ive seen so far...

yeaits okay but i think its a bit too reddy maybe if it was more brown it would be better

The trim is PAINTED on though.

LOLOLOLOL

OMG!!!

Dave, when i saw that ya posted here............
i KNEW what you were gonna say!!!!

and i'm with you, brother!

it really doesnt look bad..
but like you, i just cant get past the fact, that it's "painted"!!

[Dave Mack]

Yup!

I bet it looks great from a distance but if you're within a few feet the fact that it's paint will look pretty obvious I think!

The wearing down of the vest looks great though. If this guy could only get ahold of a vest with the right trim we might have something. But $200 and up for a paint job?!?!?



My friend Yolan is a wardrobe person who does Braodway, Film and currently the Mindfreak show. I wish she were living here. I could get her on this project and see that it goes right!

But, she's an ex and both my new gf and her new bf would surely not be happy with this!

but

as some of you know my father is part of the largest mothercycle club in maine. the exiles mothercycle club. they ride with alot of other knowns clubs like the hells angels. the president of the chapter close to my house draws amazing. he just re did there center patch. if i get a chance ill have him look at the warrior vest, at the trim. the color etc. see what he says. maybe he could draw it out and i know they know some leather guys who may be able to point me the right way. who knows when i will do this, but i will do it....and cant hurt...hey if anyone would know biker vest....its these guys

Thats awaome Kartoon thx. I just always wonder how is it that Biker Clubs get vests. They must get it cheap since they need them fast and in large numbers usually...

[Kartoon]

well really the way they do it is this

most guys have there own blank vest they come in with

then they where a bottom rocker (like the thing that says warriors but on the bottom and upside down)

they wear those as a prospect for a while...then if they get into the club. they get there top rocker(with the name of the club...exiles,hells angels...warriors) and the center patch(like the war bird)

alot of times the vest dont match in most clubs some guys will have brown some black etc...but the patchs always match, they have patchs made in a huge lot. if anything....i could find out about getting patchs done....i like the ones that mike has that the dude warriorcleon or whoever did...im sure i could get them re made

[Dave Mack]

Cool!
One thing about even the good vests like a-1 is that the patches are too small proportionally to the vest!
They need to really measure accurately IMHO.

I'm really, really interested to know anyone who's gotten one of these.  He's been selling them off and on, and I'm curious to know how the "painted" red color looks in person.  Does it wear off?  Does it peel?  Could you take a fall in it, or would it fall apart?  So many questions...
