Winter is upon us: Jacket order

Hey infected,

I have an idea for some cool club jackets that will make other clubs look like lame motherfoalkers. I wanted a jacket that not only looks like you belong to the kewl-kid club, but is also functional for winter wheeling and IOR camping trips. No big gawdy logos, gay cartoon graphics, or shit that looks like a bowling league would were.

Here is my idea:

Get these Jackets:
[attachment=2]condor Alpha fleece jacket.gif[/attachment]

Put this fully embroidered Velcro patch on the left bicep:
[attachment=1]IOR patch.jpg[/attachment]

And put this Velcro patch (or an American flag) on the right bicep:
[attachment=0]gadsden patch.jpg[/attachment]

This will also allow members to get personalized name patches attached their Jackets, which we can order later. And if you want to do something really bad, you can rip the IOR patch off, and wha-laah, IOR didn't do it! :lol3:

I can get these Jackets with the patches for $65 a person (S-XL). If I get a quantity, I can do it for even less. This is not coming out of the IOR bank account and no profit is being made off of these. This is something I am doing on my own just because I want to be special. Wont you be special with me???? If I get orders in within the next few days, we can be wearing some kick-ass duds before the Veteran's Day parade. please don't commit to this unless you are serious about spending $65, because I am making the initial order out of my pocket.

The jackets are warm fleece with pockets galore, reinforced shoulders and elbows, draw-string waist, and snow-proof cuffs. Perfect for those long nights at Logans or an ICE recovery on "The Ridge". These jackets even have reinforced shoulders to prevent wear from seat harnesses, pack straps, and rife slings :thefinger:

The jackets run a hair on the small side so if you are an in-between size, get a size larger.

Beautiful!!!

Can I make a suggestion? How about an extra patch with BRC instead of IOR?

Also... can the font be changed per order or do we all have to go with the same?

I'll have some money for you on Saturday.

All have to be the same, as the patches are a one-time custom run with a minimum order of 50.

On the BRC, I would have to order and sell a minimum of 50 patches to make it work. I'm willing to do it on the
IOR patch because they will always sell eventually. I may have a local shop embroider some BRC patches at a later date, but they will be expensive.

(was going for the earth-tone, survivalist / quasi-tactical look so they don't look like shit when they get dirty on the trail and so the patches match available Velcro loop clothing if you want to use your patches on other hats and shirts)

I like it. Especially dig the Velcro patches. However I part of an elite crew myself. I like to think of us as pleasantly plump. :suprise: If it works out and you can end up with bigger sizes ( I haven't wore an XL since Jr. high :shock: ) then count me in. :mrgreen:

These are great jackets. I own a few of these in different colors. Also have the Condor softshell 607 and 609. Those are heavier (gortex copys) but cant go wrong either way. Worth the cash

OK getting a good response on these from the board and in PMs. Price is down to $60 now because shipping cost is dispersed among a good number of folks.

Please provide the following in this thread:

[b][size=150]Size: Remember, these jackets run slightly small

Name patch: Name you want on your jacket; eg. DESERT DOG, ABENDX, MONEPIT[/size][/b]

I will try to get the order in on Saturday.

I'll take a large if they run small.

Are the names embroidered or is it another velcro patch?

Mine should say "HMF" on the name tag. :thefinger:

OK you Handsome Mutha Focker, HMF embroidered on name patch (it is Velcro). Size Large. Should have everything in a week and a half.


[quote="Dirty LJ"]Do they come in baby gap size?[/quote]
Only adult sizes. But I am sure at 6'-3", the usual size "SMALL" should show enough belly and upper bicep to still fulfill your needs :lol3:
