Ahhh, I see. Maybe I'll just save up for the A suit...

Joey, I agree with you on the fabric too, it's not my favorite either.

ah cas, why do i post these observations? to change the minds of people that can only see them in photos...if its carol fav fabric that he's designed, surely it must be worth a second look. translation, cop, plane tix for nyc only after A receives second ccp shipment.

for a chicken leg guy like myself i find the cuts in these pants to be heavenly

No, you're right Pnid, I should reserve judgement till I can see and touch them in person. I'll probably book a flight to NY sometime in July or so....By that time, all the CCP should have come in (or have been sold, lol).

Like Faust, I love CCP's trousers...and shirts...they all fit me impeccably. Those ones however look a bit too slim for me legs. ;)

The kangaroo bomber from this coming season or the overlocked one from a couple of years ago Pipcleo?

Haha, man the jointed leather jacket is so damn ill... I probably would have taken the dive if it had been in the $5-6k range but $10k... can't do it.

I'd be curious as to how CCP would repair the jacket if one of the joints ever failed.

The one that EM has is a burgundy brown (from the photo it looks it..) or is it a black/gray? Wonder how many were made....

Ah the crazy and genius mind of Carol!

Re: Carol Christian Poell

Anyone know the price on the buckle boots at Maxfields, and if they still have them?

Re: Carol Christian Poell

Thanks for answering the above question Pip... I too would not advise purchasing the Jointed Leather Hood without first trying it on... Since each limb section is so rigid, the length of your upper and fore arm would need to properly match the jacket closely... I know that my arms did not fall into those proportions and lengths so wearing it felt clumsy and awkward to me... The whole tube in the upper arm would push up when I bent my arm... Plus at $10k you would really want to be 100% sure that the jacket is spot on...

... and that it renders one absolutely invincible as you wade into battle.

for $10k you should accept nothing less.

Re: Carol Christian Poell



thank you :) i've tryed a 48 in l'ecl second time on sat. & it's too big for me. i think like that pieces really heave to be done On Demand with taking all the customer measurments. the buyers from Moscow didn't order it as far as when one of them put it on in show-roomhe couldn't take it off & the other one have helped him :)

The discussed jkt+ the same crab-type pants in same leather(l'ecl have in 50)+ double jointed boots=impossible to make a moove(only foto) & ready to go to hell(even without a CCP bagage) %)

Re: Carol Christian Poell



Thanks for the further rundown on the mythical jointed dragon slayer jacket Buratino :)

I would love to see a photo of someone wearing the jointed jacket, jointed leather pants (still haven't seen a photo of that piece) and the jointed boots all together.

$5 to whoever can get a good photo taken of it!

You may not be able to move... but you'll be the most badass guy standing still. Wherever that may be.

Re: Carol Christian Poell



Is it just me or does anyone else find it funny that some of these jointed pieces restrict the wearers movement when they're supposed to do the opposite? [75]

I still love em all though!

Re: Carol Christian Poell



3 000 photo's ? 5$ = 15 000$ - can go ahead! :)

P.S. Maybe a one year home practice will softener the stuff... or there is a danger the joints will crack & it'll be needed to ask CCP to repare the look?
