P,

the Jacket looks great on you man
really great

Some people are having concerns about the textured treatment on the jacket, but the jacket is specially wrapped and treated to give it that texture
it will get softer over time but the texture becomes more interesting
I am wearing one right now that I will be living in for the FW season


Also
so i don't have to answer them all.

Some items from the FW studio stock are ready, others will be ready next week, while we havent listed anything as yet, if anyone is interested they can order/ preorder so that you dont lose out in your size. there are only limited stick in each size.
hopefully everything will be ready by next week end.

Drop me a PM/ email with any questions you might have


Blessings

Its been a long winding road, many trails on the way. Some said it couldn't be done, some said I was stupid, they even tried to stop us.............but against the odds, Finally.
Monday OCTOBER 3RD, 2011
We will officially open ZFAKTORIE, the production arm of Zam Barrett Dialogue. To God Be the Glory!!!!!!!.
I want to thank everyone who helped to make this possibly, its still a long way to go, but this is a significant step on a dramatic and powerful journey!

Hello All,

Just a few quick updates to answer several questions that persons have been asking, that are better answered here than through PM's.
Over the Next few weeks some important updates will be made in this threaf, so please do read here early and often.

• ZFaktorie will officially open on October 3rd, 2011. It is the production arm of Zam Barrett Dialogue, we intend to produce everything ourselves, in house by owning our own production facilities and this is the first step in realizing our goal, the factory will serve to continue making our wonderful items without the need to outsource anything.
• All are welcome to come and visit our facilities, but please do make an appointment, whether you live in NY or you are visiting you are welcome to come and see how the stuff is made and how we are doing.

• FW 2011 items will officially go on sale on October 3rd, a lot of items are ready, and some people have preordered stuff, we encourage you to take advantage of this, as we are doing only limited runs of items in each size, so if you need something, better to preorder to secure your size/ color.
• There have been alot of inquiries regarding Custom Suits, we have done this for several Clients who are both members and Non members of SZ, it is an aspect of our business that we have not promoted, in part because we were bogged down with other stuff, but now, we will be making this service open to all those who require to take advantage of it. (I will say more on this soon)
• In order to be more efficient, to serve everyone better and to streamline our operations, we have developed a system for ordering of items............When making a purchase through PayPal, in the notes section of the transaction, these four things must be listed. 1. Item// 2. Size //3. Color // 4. Shipping Address. This will allow us to process your order in a more efficient way than in the past, and we intend to do this

We thank everyone again, our growth and success would never have been possible without you all. Pictures of theFaktorie will be available soon


Blessings'

you know, one of my biggest regrets for that evening was not spending more time taking to you and M,
M, holds a special place in my heart and I wish I could see here more often. I was so tired that day that I was really going on fumes..........but I have my passion and I give it my all...........I will continue till "the wheels falls off"

the bag is wonderful, and yes, we have them as FW11 stock, in three colors...........Good to hear you are enjoying it much, my greatest pleasure is always to get wonderful feedback from people who have bought the products and are in love with them!

thanks again

Hello All

please understand that if you have a particular question about an item stocked by a store, we prefer you call the store and ask them about the item. actually we encourage you to do that.

Also, please be aware that some stores are stocking items that are not on their website,

For example, not all items stocked by Layers, is listed on their online site, Pollyanna is the same,

I visited the ZFaktorie yesterday. It's a nice set up!
Faye, I got the same jacket and it's fantastic the fit is just perfect.

By the way, don't overlook the scarves from the current collection they are awesome.

[Magic1]

^zam's one of the few to make a sufficiently long scarf (enough of the short crap) that isn't $800...
And they have a great unique texture and depth of color.
