Walking Dead Rick Jacket

I'm so glad I found people passionate about this jacket, I have been searching for the original for probably two years now and was upset to see the thing being sold at a website for about 25 bucks at one point, but I was already too late, I saw Accidental while back on here I think talking about the fact he had the original, and have been trying to track the thing down since, anyways, I bought two jackets from americanleatherjackets and one was a large and wasn't cutting It for me and I upgraded to a XL, I noticed the fact that my body build Is skinny, not Insanely skinny to the point of bones I have muscles for the sole fact I AM skinny, and not even to mention I am 6'5 so It gets even more complicated, I was going to make a move soon on whitesheep leather because It looks the closest to the real deal and just get a custom order but then I saw this forum and even with the jackets I have now I noticed the flaws, most Importantly the fit and overall unaccurate and untrue to the original (collar, buttons, length, etc etc) I'm glad I came across this, finding people as passionate about this damn tv show jacket, I've noticed that Rick does wear two jackets, somehow?... costume designed said she got It from a thrift store but naaaaah lol I feel like UGG and TWD linked up at one point and produced another jacket for them, It's Insanely weird, I even noticed somebody who had the original and somehow "purchased" another for himself and then proceeded to sell the other for a grand not too long ago, something just Isn't adding up with the original UGG bomber, anyways, I'm counting on you, I want this people to produce an even more screen accurate jacket, I would buy It In a heartbeat, and It would seem like the best plan from a business standpoint to sell the "new" jacket, anyways, I had a few questions, one Is, do you think the price will raise considerably? and another question I have Is, Is the whitesheepleather worth buying If I have my correct measurements for a custom fit? I just really need a jacket of this statue for myself, It screams me to a tee and I need to get an accurate perfect sized one I can wear around perfectly, almost like a staple, without the unnecessary stuff the other jackets have, anyways, hopefully an update comes! thank you, I'll be watching like everyone else, lol only signed up just to see these updates
Welcome!! Are you talking about this jacket? http://americanleatherjacket.com/Ri...-Season-4-Leather-Jacket?search= walking dead If so how is the jacket? and their quality? I've been looking for a season 3 jacket but i am not quite sure where i would buy one. The one i am thinking about is this one http://americanleatherjacket.com/Rick-Grimes-Jacket?search= walking dead
 
I will say although, the americanleatherjacket one I have (which I have two L and XL) the large one doesn't quite fit me extremely well, like I've said, from the collar to the fact the back of the jackrt flaps out annoyingly so, the jackets suede Is honestly Incredible, I think the color Is Identical to the original, and It's not cheap suede I don't believe, because I can still smell the fresh suede and It's been almost two years since I bought this thing and It's been through the ringer, from being ripped to water, mud, all kinds of things, I even washed It at one point, It's smooth but you can tell It's not texturized like the original If that makes sense? anyways, I wish all of these companies would come together and pull resources to make the most screen accurate jacket, you would think that would be smart and easy right? ahaha nah apparently not
 
Damn they still haven't gotten back to you yet? I figured having exact measurements would've helped, maybe it's a lack of material?

Nope not yet, just found this on their ebay listing:

Probably still the old version but just a new pic to look at lol
 
Ok, I'm quite a bit put off by Suzahdi. I see they're using other people's pictures as their own. Making replica jackets is one thing (also iffy enough in itself), but promoting your own jackets with other people's pictures (also from other replica jacket makers like Indy Magnoli) and slapping your own watermark on he pictures is just plain wrong, disrespectful and dishonest if you ask me.

I was already a little put off by their use of pictures of the original UGG jacket which they just Photoshopped. Just use your own ffing pictures of the ACTUAL product that you're offering. :angry

By the way... if any of you guys want an accurate Grimes suede jacket, we could probably offer a White Label version for around $295 (shipped). Drop me a line if you're interested.

By accurate you are thinking of the changes that has been posted here before?

To be honest, I haven't gone through this entire thread, but have done plenty of research on this one myself (we've had several requests for this jacket, but no one actually ordered one). Regardless, I will go through this thread as well if and when we do one of these to make sure nothing is overlooked.

There's quite a demand just from this thread alone, I figure once a finished product is released demand would skyrocket if we cross-posted this on TWD subreddit or other cosplay forums for Walking Dead. Is the price non-negotiable? One of the main selling points was the low price ($160 including shipping) coupled with their openness to requests, we've been going back and forth with them for months now while we dissected the jacket from the show. This has been quite a difficult project since we don't have any fabric samples from the jacket itself, we've pretty much been using reference photos from set pictures from the show as well as a couple OEM jackets. We only recently got measurements for a size Large, so we're not entirely sure how that would scale for different sizes (S, M, XL, etc) but in earlier comments we've compiled measurements, fabrics, and other details.

Hey Like Mike , did you ever make a definitive imgur post for the completed details/measurements or am I thinking of two different albums?

There is details in here somewhere so you should definitely read it all event though if it takes some time. Went pretty in detail on the collar and the back. Do you know how long it would be before we could eventually see the prototype?
 
I've got all the info, measurement and plenty of photos. We'll get moving on this asap, not sure how long it'll take to source all the correct materials though. I'll get back as soon as I have more info.

In relation to all of the details for the jacket, these two links should cover things pretty well, these are the two links we have sent Suzahdi to work with:

The one link shows the measurements of the jacket:

The other link shows litttle details of the jacket/materials/pockets/zips etc:

Are you able to get some close up pics in good lighting of the suede/lycra/lining on your UGG jacket to show Indy Magnoli, so they have an idea what to source, seeing as this sounds like a new project for them, may aswell try and get it right from the start.
