It's back!!

How much and where can I buy one? The 2-tone gray w/ black knits looks interesting. I'd have to get a black and blue one first. It aint a Derby if it aint made in S.F!

Thats great but derby's were also made in korea and if anything is made here in sf now it will not be cheap.

If you get one, don't forget to buy the Ben Davis pants, Plaid Pendleton Flannel Shirts buttoned to the top, bandana, '64 Impala with 12 inch wheels, hydraulic jacks in the front and back to make it jump, little pom poms to hang around the windows and the doggie in the back with the head that goes up and down.
Otherwise the whole low-rider look is for naught.

Of course the ensemble wouldn't be complete with the wearing of an athletic t-shirt under a standard white t-shirt. Preferable done in the winter, while the plaid flannel Pendleton is worn in the heat of summer.

I recently saw them in a store. I'm not impressed. Made in China. Sizing is off. XL felt about two sizes too small. Retail is about $200. This might be an okay jacket for about $60 at JC Penney or Sears. But for my $200, there are better options out there.

I finally got one. It's pretty close to the original, but I don't have one to compare. Two obvious things that are not correct are the knits and the color. Those are two pretty important details. Color wise, it's a much brighter blue than the original Navy. Knits are too puffy. I got mine for around $140, but that was on the initial offering. Worth it? Probably not, but it is a very small company selling in small volumes. I do like it, as it's better than not having one, but I must say I was a bit disappointed.
