These look great. I will definitely be getting this. I've been looking at Golden Bear X Unionmade for awhile but this is only about $100 more AND has Aero Leather arms. :o
I'm gonna throw this out there and it would be quite expensive but my roommate actually started and headed up the Nike Bowery Custom shop for over a year. He was the art director for that project in the beginning. He did almost all the celebrity jackets and I took images of them for Nike. Anyways, if any of you in NYC get this jacket I'm sure my roommate could help you out getting it customized even further than what Giles would have time to do.
He also knows how to do chain stitch embroidery pretty well and has the machine at his office. Now, the only issue I see is he can't do any of this stuff if it's lined or else you have to take the lining out/put back in. That can be very expensive. I'm assuming these are lined.
I'll talk to him about this more and see what his thoughts are.
Here's an example he designed and I took the pics

Edit: he said when he found it, it was broken and there's only one guy in America that knows how to fix them. That guy said he was one of like 3-4 people in the US that actually had one.
