Aero Leather Clothing trial update

[Big J]

Yup: http://www.alexanderleathers.com/alexander-leathers-statement

Now a dead link. Yet again, AL attempts to erase evidence. First, AL removed its acknowledgment that Will Lauder was an integral part of the founding of AL. Now, AL has removed its "statement" attempted to downplay its original acknowledgment. What will AL next attempt to cover up?

Maybe this is all on the advice of their 'legal team'?lollollol

It's all about balance. As it is, the AL version looks as if the pockets have started somewhere at the chest but have sunk southwards over time. Horrid leather it's made of too, but that's by the by.

The leather type/ quality is what really stuck out for me from day one. Some strange looking hides with very uninspired designs. The combination really put me off. Throw in some of their early sale jackets at£150-£250 and they didn't seem too high end or exclusive either.

No, their legal team is currently on the long flight to Japan...

Yes to all of the above. The shame is that competition is good for the market, but a "me too" doesn't really shake things up much. BK, Himel, Thedi and others have all brought interesting designs to the market and moved the needle a bit in that regard.

Sweet!
I can recommend a good 'drink all you can' Belgian bar, and they and they can fill me in on Alexander Leather mystery designer!
After all, if they haven't passed the bar here, they can't practice.

I think they are coming to offer you the designer job. Can't be too hard to move around a few pockets.

But they've already done the 'donkey jacket with a modern fit'!
Where do you go from there?
I'll tell you where; 11.

How difficult can it be?

"Admit it....you're a tracer!"

That dragon looks a bit tricky!
I couldn't do that!

 

[Sloan1874]

You need some more pockets there, if you're going to make the AL grade.

 

[Benny Holiday]

Ah! So that's how they caught WL! They brought in Dick Tracey! lol
Get it? Dick TRACEY?

I know I know, shut up Benny, you're a twit!

 

[IXL]

Damn.........I'm a DESIGNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe I can get a job somewhere in Scotland!

 

[Sloan1874]

Can you do pockets? Lots of them? If so, you're HIRED!

As a journalist that covered the court case, would you think that an interview with AL and a story, whatever the outcome is, might make sense? To me, it seems the next logical step. Even if they refuse a meeting, that is a story by itself. If not, just report what they say.

A Belgian bar? In JAPAN?? What kind of beer do they sell???

 

[Big J]

About 850 different types!

But the best thing is that for 5000¥ you can drink all you want for two hours, with six servings of food each.

 

[Otter]

Anything up to three years and the fine is unlimited.

What is the betting on a no show with another excuse from the Solicitor. :flypig:

 

[Sloan1874]

I doubt it at this point. We're beyond the point of 'deferring for further time' - I think only the PF could ask for further time if the social work reports had not been completed.

At what time is the sentencing, and will we then be told any further information that may have been withheld?
