I think the only things that cheers me up in this thread are nice knits, carpes, and el bert cops.

Yea, that bulletproof vest is sweet. If you don't like it and it's a large or so hit me up.

Designer bulletproof vests.... What a fantastic concept. Does Israel have an established designer tapping that market yet?

I'm sure Ahmed Abdelrahman of Thamanyah will employ the idea.

I owned a pair of MHL pants with buttoning on the inside of the waist(those two tabs that you can pull to tighten the waist). I was very disappointed when it ripped the inside waist lining after a couple wears.

I've handled the mainline knits before though and they're amazing.

Well, there's a Colombian company that does that.

Is it safe to assume those coats are meant for warmer climates? I like the look, but I probably wouldn't be able to wear one until early Spring without freezing.

The unlined LBM 1911 versions are not warm enough for temperatures around the freezing point, unless you wear a lot of layers underneath.

el bert: Who makes that green jacket? It is really interesting/cool.

As in, 0c/32f? I wear mine at that temperature all the time, with just a thick wool jumper underneath, and am very warm. Once it gets closer to 0F then all bets are off.
