    Who Makes a heavy duty jacket?

    I was looking at an old three weapon jacket I bought from Physical chess about 4 yrears ago. I am amazed at the thin materal used in newer non fie jackets. Can any one suggest a good, heavy , non fie jacket?. Those of you that have seen the older jackets know what i mean.

    Ask for a cotton jacket instead of a nylon jacket.

    Fencesmart was selling these house-brand jackets a while back made out of a really thick nylon. One of them ran me about $50. Kinda warm, kinda ugly, but it took the edge off pretty much anything.

    No dude, you're thinking of the thin style ones.

    They had a thin style jacket and a thick style jacket.

    I know of a limited stock of the old Santelli jackets.

    What size you looking for and maybe I can introduce you to "my guy".

    I'll even save you the trouble of coming down to the docks at 10pm...

    But you'll still need to wear a pink carnation, be whistling 'Yankee Doodle' in the key of G, and carrying a f.net catalog in your left hand. Unless you suspect you're being followed, in which case you'll carry the catalog in your right hand.
