I bought one for my boyfriend, and it seems to be fairly close to the real thing, from what I can see, anyway. It has the blue lining, orange pocket edges, split in the back, back vent, and is a thin flowy faux-suede material. He said it is quite comfortable, too.Toastysaurushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16015375736555007587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2408260362485505331.post-33013044984177485172012-04-12T15:49:56.664+01:002012-04-12T15:49:56.664+01:00Beware Magnoli Clothiers.

Not for an Alcantra mind you, just something that has the proper shape and colour?<br /><br />As for the honestdragonchina stuff, I won't be getting their overcoat, I'm gonna go with TSSY instead. My only other question is if I should swing towards the Faux Suede or the Wool. I plan on wearing this coat nearly everyday that it's cold, and I wonder which will be the more durable and warm.<br /><br />Though I am now Very, Very, VERY scared of my wife paying HonestDragonChina good money for the 2 piece suit, after doing a bit more in depth research of it. Seeing your photo comparison on the Fabric type, and the close-ups of your version of the suit, make me not want it to ruin my birthday by getting it. Hell, the thing doesn't even have any BLUE in it, much less the proper pockets, back belting and darts.<br /><br />But it's so inexpensive! Ugh, Rock and a hard place. Anywho, thanks friend for this site! It is a great endeavour and a wonderful subject!<br /><br />Best,<br /><br />JYHAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2408260362485505331.post-58025872964870123852009-07-18T09:14:59.305+01:002009-07-18T09:14:59.305+01:00I think it depends on your budget and what you are...I think it depends on your budget and what you are looking for detail-wise in a coat.<br />Honest Dragon is good for you pocket, but it only really services the silhouette of the coat and skips a lot of the finer details.<br />Tssy does contain a lot more accurate details, though some are a still a little out.<br />Someone recently contacted me to show off their Tssy coat, which had been modified to make it a bit closer. It looked good, but in the photos I saw it still came across as looking quite red. He also said it was not as red in real-life. Strange.<br />This is all very well, but if it shows up red in photographs, and if it is being judged in photographs, then that is where the colour really counts - in my opinion.<br /><br />Anyway - don't let me put you off. As I think I said before, if I hadn't had the skill to make my own, I would have gone for a Tssy coat.<br /><br />Shame your budget is limited - maybe we could have talked about commissioning me to make you one!<br /><br />Finally, sorry, I don't want to make my pattern available as it has taken me a lot of effort and research to get it to where it is.<br /><br />Best of luck!Steven Ricks Tailoringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07549983020683092455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2408260362485505331.post-31101076821600905872009-07-18T08:55:47.690+01:002009-07-18T08:55:47.690+01:00My wife is probably gonna end up getting my a Tssy...My wife is probably gonna end up getting my a Tssy coat here for my b-day in a few weeks (and an honestdragonchina brown/blue suit...I'm not quite sure how I feel about that having read your reviews of their trench...), and I'm curious if I should have her get the Faux Suede or the Wool Version? Does anyone know whcich one is the better one? Which kind did the guy you got pictures from say he had? Also, if it was redder in the pics than real life, should Ihave them go with a more coldenrod color than brown on my version?<br /><br />I wish I had a couple thousand dollars to drop on a Magnoli set of both, but slightly above minnimum wage don't allow for that and bills to get paid.<br /><br />Also, any chance of releasing your pattern for mass (or at least fan) consumption? Getting it graded probably wouldn't cost too much and you could rake in $30 a pop per pattern from us diehards who want to make our own. ;-)<br /><br />Anwyway, if anyone has the answers to my questions, i'll check back frequently.<br /><br />Thx,<br /><br />JYHAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2408260362485505331.post-54281003316805668082009-06-26T22:23:55.795+01:002009-06-26T22:23:55.795+01:00I think if I hadn't made my own I would have b...I think if I hadn't made my own I would have been tempted with a Tssy coat too.Steven Ricks Tailoringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07549983020683092455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2408260362485505331.post-89638023803417889682009-06-26T18:31:53.492+01:002009-06-26T18:31:53.492+01:00I have a tssy coat, and I was expecting something ...I have a tssy coat, and I was expecting something beyond terrible ... but it was actually great!
