DRIVE (2011) Scorpion Satin Jacket

Hey guys. They posted a reply to my post on Facebook, and they'll be uploading photos soon. That's all I got out of them, which isn't anything new, but I guess they're still aware we are looking forward to them.

forget the photos, I'm more waiting for them to start sending those jackets.
 
Here's my friend Shaun who did DRIVE for my halloween party costume.

They've got to take precautions before shipping these.
This jacket is so cool, we'll be facing a population boom in nine month's time.
 
For anyone looking to contact The Golden Closet about props, just a quick note about them. A few weeks ago, I messaged them about the hammer. They answered what I needed to know at that time, within half a day. I asked them about a possible payment plan, as I am only 20 years old in art school, and they replied saying it can't be done, again in only a few hours. As a potential customer, I feel that their communication since the minute they thought I had no money for their item has become non-existent. I have asked several questions since then regarding the item, and I have not received one reply in more than two weeks.

Not meaning to sound like a whiny b****, but I think this is pretty poor business etiquette on their part. I understand they own a big company with tens of thousands of dollars worth of merchandise, but considering someone (me) is willing to part so much money on one piece, it's only fair that they give me a chance to ask a few questions. oh well.
 
No offense but it just sounds like if you can't pay all at once, they can't sell it to you. What more did you want to know?

None taken. In my email after the payment plan discussion, I told them it may be possible for me to get the hammer without needing a plan to do so. I had questions about the hammer in general, and if they had a bit more information on it. Apparently they had 3 hammers in their possession, and i was just curious about a few other things as well.
 
It looks like they are the rubber stunt castings. You may be better off finding the screen used brand and weathering it yourself. That is my plan personally.
 
Here are my "good enough" shoes. I know they aren't boots and are mostly inaccurate but I think they will look good with the outfit. Plus they were eight bucks so you can't beat that.
 
Does anyone know where to buy the three-button henley shirt? I looked up the GAP UK Site but there is only a other version with more buttons.

I've done a lot of research on the stuff in this movie, I found out already that it's a Vaughan 20 oz smooth face rip hammer, out of production now for probably 5 - 10 years. They make newer versions of the same model but surprisingly this one is hard to find.

Hey man, those shirts were from a bunch of deadstock henley shirts from decades ago. Unfortunately it's hard to find a good match. I made a separate thread for all the misc. props in the movie if you wanna check it out. I'm gonna keep updating it as I find the information:

finally! Looks accurate enough (the stitching doesn't bother me).


Now, can we get a shipping confirmation? I need a new haircut and a pair of blue jeans but I'm waiting to get the jacket first( via Driver's haircut and jeans).:love
 
According to their blog regarding the first run of jackets:

"If you ordered your Drive jacket from our first production run, we are shipping orders starting today and through next week, in the order that they were placed. You will receive a shipment confirmation/tracking # when your order is shipped.

We’re so excited to get these jackets out to everyone! Check out our first order, packed up and ready to go!"

Here's a picture of the jacket packed on the chair.
