MemberNoobJul-26-2013 5:19 PMRecently I found and posted an original Blade Runner crew jacket. They go for about $1500.00 U.S. First problem: that's alot of money. Second problem:There never in my size(XXL).
So I contacted The Cloth Tattoo company that made the jackets in the first place : [url=http://www.clothtattoo.com/index.html]The Cloth Tattoo[/url]
The owner(Dave) told me he could find a donor jacket and use....drum roll please....the "original coding used to make the Blade Runner emblems on the back of the jacket" :)
The original crew donor jacket couldn't be found because they don't make them anymore. Dave found a jacket that was very close to the original base jacket.The only difference is my jacket has snaps instead of a zipper in the front....I don't care...its amazingly cool as far as I'm concerned :)
The whole thing came to about $350.00 U.S. It would be cheaper if you supplied Dave with your own jacket ...you could have it sewn onto a hoodie or something ;)
Anyway,here's some pics of the replica Blade Runner jacket by The Cloth Tattoo :)

MemberNoobOct-02-2013 10:36 PM[center][/center]My prediction came true after-all, and I appreciate you sharing all these exclusive photos with us. I wonder if there is a demand for the BR jacket at these Canadian Comic-Cons? Maybe something to try-out selling next-time you visit one. ;)
Now stop, I'm feeling [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gk884bCvxm0]too jealous[/url], djrees56! :(
