Ken knows more about jackets than anyone else I know.
Aren't Thedi and Bill Kelso one and the same ?
I believe they are both located in Thessaloniki. Ken from Aero thinks they are the same mob.
There is the possiblity that Thedi is a contract maker for BK. If so, BK could not be an independent artisan jacket maker(as they claim) like their competition which is worth a lot of kudos in the jacket business. They would be just another brand retailer who have others make their products. There could be a commercial confidentiality agreement in place, hence the denial.Theodoros seems like a really stand up guy, I'd be pretty surprised and disappointed if he was intentionally misrepresenting his company.
It wouldn't bother me if they were linked, it's more the denying it, what benefit would there to lie about it?
Theodoros is one hell of a creative beast. Flourishes that might look tacky on other jackets look inspired on his works. He has mastered the art of form and style.I'd like to see more of his work. The few pieces I've seen were original and interesting, with nice little touches. We see quite a lot of jackets on this forum, but the few of his I've seen really stood out for me.
Hello and Merry Christmas to you all from Greece.I know the BK guys are very strange but is there any reason why this would be kept secret? Also why would Thedi say they had no knowledge of BK? Surely far better to stay silent.

If you know something more... please tell me and I will visit him ..I believe they are both located in Thessaloniki. Ken from Aero thinks they are the same mob.
In recent years, since I lost my beloved from cancer
I heard first time this name (kelso) of my friend David (himmel).
There is nowhere I asked many friends and customers in Athens, but nobody knows anything about him.
If he has factory or workshop where he doing the production, he must declare. (Address)
I do not know mr. Ken and generally what he knows, but on this issue I can assure you that knows nothing and speaks only to say something that is not true.I believe they are both located in Thessaloniki. Ken from Aero thinks they are the same mob.
I had seen the photos (very nice) wearing the jacket and it was nice topic of discussion for many days in our workshop.Thank you Theodoros for adding to this thread.
I think it is fantastic when manufacturers like yourself communicate directly with passionate customers like those on this forum. The rich wealth of expertise that you can share is so valuable to those who are trying to develop their own knowledge.
I do have one of your jackets & it is one of my favourites.

Hopefully one day, I'll make it to Greece & pop in for a chat.
