The knickers are $175 + shipping (FOB Oakland, CA). Nov delivery.
Josh will be “life streaming” about the design, creation and adventure product testing of his suit over the next year. He is a social media mogul willing to share ownership. He plans to, well, watch the video.
Bill Mitchell will ride his bike around the world on a 3-year tour. Will his bespoke suit endure the trip? You can’t follow him on Twitter, browse photos of the tour on Flickr, or poke him Facebook. The tailor will have to update you with poetry from telepathic accounts and perhaps an occasional email. We will post an image of the suit and rain cape upon his departure with in the next few weeks.
Molly rode the East Bay Tweed ride. Check their website for the next Bay Area ride. Thanks Colin!
Nan hauls Isaac Rodriguez’s (Cycles of Change) rig to the new tailor studio in the old Ride SFO space on Peralta in West Oakland. About 15 trips using three rigs did the job. See Pamela Palma’s (Bicigirl) and B. Spoke Tailor pics of the move on Flickr.
Andrew Di Pietro posted this pic to Flickr a while back. It is a favorite pic of the knicks! Where are you, Andrew?
