    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    As I said in the earlier thread, the bespoke promise was one of the things that made me consider a Himel in the early days when I was discovering the hobby.

    Good idea :D

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    Have standards fallen or were they arbitrary? As you say Craig has high standards and is not afraid to voice his displeasure. It is the one person for whom you would better make sure the jacket is as good as possible. I would also not be surprised, is he were instrumental in getting the remake...

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    Not surprising, he supposedly enjoys "torturing his jackets" according to his ex employee who got thrown under the bus shortly after that comment. But then again, the jackets cost him probably 10 - 15% of his asking price...

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    Langlitz stand behind their product as opposed to Himel who makes excuses and blames you for even complaining... the nerve!

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    He messed up, it is not a bespoke poster that comes in one size fits all.

    Most of the members are really interesting, that's the main part I think. I have made good friends through this forum. Which makes me think, I should organise another meetup in London this autumn maybe?

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    And he deludes himself thinking he's an artist... Worst part is that he managed to convince his "tribe"

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    Not a bad idea lol I know that there have been quite a few disagreements in this thread. But I am happy it has stayed civil and it is a very interesting thread with good information so far. Edited for clarity

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    So, in the end he never had the guts to do what he said. i.e.. answering in the "chosen complaint platform" and he keeps posting rubbish on Instagram. What a small man. @Damon141 , I am sorry it ended up like this. I do not know how I would feel in your situation, but I can only repeat that I...

    No bickering, just lively conversation :) We are far from the flame wars of old lol

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    Classic case of over-promise and under-deliver. I do not think we ever disagreed on this, but I am not sure I see your point here?

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    If we are to go by his Instagram posts, it is as you say. Nobody is forcing him - or trying to - in any way, where did you see any obligation implied in my post? He said something and is doing something else so far, that is plain to see.

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    The OP was told that he would get an answer on his chosen complaint platform was he not? This thread is still going strong, and will keep doing so as long as Himel avoids posting here but continues posting on Instagram trying to justify himself. The best way to end this thread would be for him...

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    Considering how he is posting on Instagram, I do not think he is amused. He wasn't amused last thread about a QC disaster

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    Good question, Himel is trying to justify the bad jacket he sold the OP. He is trying to build support for his brand. So it is an indirect reply to the issue here. Yes we all tend to defend our favourite brands, it is normal while other will point out the bad points - whether legitimate or not...

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    Indeed, he can also say the earth is flat or that such jackets are handmade products and as such inconsistent stitching is to be celebrated as a hand made product with no repercussions... Edit: That reminds me of a story I heard in marketing in Italy. One of the biggest producers of canned tuna...

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    He seems to be hesitant to post here, like someone looking at a swimming pool but not ready to jump in. LW uses cotton threads as well btw.

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    Let's see what Himel has to post now. I think everything that had to be said was said. No need to keep asking why the OP did not do things otherwise, why we did not point out things earlier, etc. It has all been explained. No need to beat a dead horse. Himel seems to be preparing his answer...

    Photos of cool jackets owned by others (non-brand specific)

    I don't have a jacket from them yet, I think I will go take a look again next time I am in Tokyo. But I have a pait of boots that is really well made
