that's what you get when you describe too much about custom jacket you want without accompanying pictures :D

like
please make me a cross zip biker jacket with modern longer fit, keep it minimalist I hate pockets, thinking about dual tone but don't make it too ***gy ,
and make it screams metal and freedom, with some tribal flair, and I really like grainy feel on the jacket .

Laugh all you want guys but that painting is sold. (Or just got removed due to being extremely stupid, which more likely is the case XD )

Anyway, it's easy to make fun of fashion disasters but here's something that's to me deeply wrong, done by a company that's considered to be the best on the market.

They took a pretty straightforward modern-ish motorcycle jacket, one that Vanson makes which they actually admit doing which is kinda cool I suppose but what they did with the style - isn't. At 27" length, this is a car coat! The awesome shape of Vanson's jacket is completely gone and combined with the stupid length, it looks like a shapeless long leather tube with sleeves. With a bib. I'm not sure what is it that they wanted to achieve with this but they failed. I dunno, maybe I'm alone on this but... $2K for something that looks like this... No, thanks.

Speaking of going too far. Here is a Joe McCoy for the man who feels his body hair is inadequate. I firmly believe there is a clear line in this hobby and while some jackets dance around it, this monstrosity puts its head down and bolts past it like a runaway freight train.

This is pure class. It's basically a fur coat at this point. Imagine cross zip in this. Or don't.

I see on the label that it was “Styled and Tailored in Chicago, Ill”.
I see your fingerprints all over this one man!

I was looking at this and didn't look hard enough at first. I was sitting here thinking, "What? It's just an ordinary lea- OH MY GOODNESS!"

As soon as I finally had the opportunity to travel to Japan, I no longer questioned some of those kooky designs. Over there, anything goes. I could have worn a toaster on my head and no one would have even batted an eye.

The fur shirt is kind of glam rock band. A musician could pull that off.
