Capes

[Randy]

I would be interested.

For me, I would say definitely in black, and given a likely move back south, in the lighter weight.

That thing looks pretty cool. you aren't shipping the old guy with the cape, are you? He looks pretty attached to it.

[Moosehead]

Basically all it is, is a greatcoat, without sleeves and a slightly ovoid cape added on. Nuttin' to it.

If you want to steal the old bugger from that manufacturer, he's all yours. Might have to beat him with a shillelegh(sp?).

[Moosehead]

Another quick question: would anyone be interested in a lighter weight, brushed poly/cotton, semi-lined, for warmer weather?

[Deolain]

I would be interested in any lighter weight materials. We have nice weather almost all year long and I would like to get some use out of the cape.

I bought one in Edinburgh over 10 years ago and it still looks new. I wear it all winter long even with my business suits. Looks great and gets a lot of compliments. Paid 650 pounds for it. Made by Stewart Christie & Co. I would like to have one in a different color and if you start be prepared to have a lot of orders. Only one question...are you making it to the original style of Inverness or the Hollywood style?

can you post a pic? at 10 years going, I'd love to see what kind of shape it is in now...

Yes, ByDand. A picture please. What do you mean by Inverness and Hollywood styles?


Moosehead and others, would it make sense to have the cape part one weight and the coat part a different weight?

What's the difference?
