Re: Officially Licensed STAR WARS: Movie Replica Motorcycle Suits. New Pics Added 3/2
Awesome and thanks again for the vote of confidence guys.:thumbsup
Nice....I'm really digging the black one once you get the cogs right!
David...do these versions have the CE armor already? Is that still planned? Will there be pockets for chest/back protectors? Zippered waist for pants?
...because I'd actually like to use this jacket for riding/trackdays!
This Star Wars license is in fact based on product that is made for motorcycle riding. All our Star Wars goods, and Marvel, and TRON LEGACY...and most of our Batman lines also have full CE Approved body armor.
This means:
Jackets - Forearm/Elbow, Shoulders and Back spine protector.
Pants - Thigh protection, Knees/shins
Gloves - Anti Skid Kevlar palms under the leather.
Boots - Heavy Duty Rubber soles, and varying armor depending on the character, style and design.
All of the armor is fully removable in all these goods, so if you wish to upgrade it to your preferred used armor...no problem.
Not only, but if you don't ride...slide the armor out of the pouches and you have everyday wearable 'bad ass' themed looking leather outerwear. While still classified as motorcycle wear, you don't have to have a bike or ride to enjoy these goods. :angel
Regarding the BSG License, our respected friends at ANOVOS have that license well covered. If they wish to introduce anything related to their license 'leather or biker wear inspired', and choose to involve us...for me personally, I'd not only be thrilled but would consider it an honor. That said, it is their property to decide if such a product is something of interest.
Maybe I missed it during the thread,
David are you doing the "ceremony jacket"s colors, or is it strictly imperial?
Just to note, we do have the ability with the STAR WARS license to produce either leather or textile garments...so we're not only restricted to leather. That said, the mustard ceremonial jacket as a 'replica' would have to have some modifications to it...again, we're making motorcycle wear with this license so things like the full body armor mentioned above, but more drastic would have to be the front zipper added so that the jacket could be fully functional. Sure, we could conceal it really well...but it would have to be there.
I also think you're the first one to ask about the actual mustard color. -Would that be cool in leather or actual nylon like the originals?
-Would the front zipper be a deal breaker?
-Does this jacket as a replica still have a desire in the market considering it has already been done by another company? Sure, ours would be different for the reasons mentioned above, but it would essentially look the same. Is there still a desire to see that done?
We're already working on the 'movie replica' aspect of this license as we speak...full character reproductions which will be ready to wear and use on your bikes...the Ceremonial Jacket itself, as a replica hasn't really been requested so we're throwing it out to you guys here...thoughts?
