back zip maybe the only saving grace... not too attractive for the females front side

ive handled these in person here in europe, i think the back zipper compliments them well. similar to guidi back zippers, there are no real aesthetic issues alone though they may be a bit difficult to implement into an actual womans outfit. i think in real life they come across a bit more effeminate also, as women tend to have smaller feet the shape is a lot sleeker than the pictures sometimes suggest. the beige boot with the rubber sole on the other hand i would scarcely recommend. not very attractive at all. the scunched up bags are nice too looks like mona moore only has the tiny version left which are still cute but very impractical i think.

Very excited to tell you guys that the new, wintery grandma+ has landed over at sartorialoft. Detailed photos of everything are forthcoming, but you can get a preview of some of the shoes and accessories included in this recent delivery over at the sartorialoft blog

This sort of thing is best experienced in person, so if any of you are planning to come out and witness the glory of gramps across in the brick and mortar environment & would perhaps like to meet up in the process, do send a pm ;)

The collapsible box bag looks really great. Any idea how much that's going for?

I think the doctors bag on komakino looks amazing:


but it is hard to go past the accordian...

[Venus in Furs]

I'm interested in buying one of the accordian bags. Can't find anywhere online that has them though

[lowrey]

the doctors bag is awesome, I couldn't stay away from it at Darklands. the metal at the opening is really nice and the vintage lining is a really cool touch. the only downside for me is the location of the straps, but then again they could be moved towards the sides with little stitching.

second that. the SS10 have a similar ones but with a better straps position that perfect for sling.

Venus, I think sartorialoft are getting (or have) the accordian in. Maybe I'm wrong.

[fenrost]

they do,

they've received and moved all accordions :-(


that collapsible bag is really nice as well though ;-)

The strap position did cross my mind. Is there a 'fit' pic of this bag around anywhere? Is komakino likely to indulge my request for one?

[magic]

you should ask Campbell

i am not certain.. but a seller had his m.a+ leather shirt special ordered, just like his ccp fencing.

I'm uncertain about directly contacting them, but Pollyanna and Darklands can act as a middle-man. There's a 15% surcharge on custom orders. Stings a bit, but at least you'll get exactly what you're looking for. Also, MA+ is not very prompt with responses. Not that I was surprised.
