Well, true to form, AbbyShot is still locked down, so they must be working hard on something which I cannot yet see, but I will persist. In the meantime, I did find some partial shots, which I have posted for you. I found them when I rummaged through the garbage. I am not 100% sure what they mean as of yet, but they do look like they have something to do with the Squall Jacket and Dante Coat and maybe at least two sets of gloves. I wish I could blow the top off their meaning. (Nothing works up the AbbyShot crew like me beating them to an announcement!)

I'll keep working on it. If you happen to work it out before I do, please feel free to email me, or post your ideas below this blog post, or on AbbyShot's Twitter or Facebook Page!

The Wednesday Uplink: The Windy City

Just two weeks ago I wrote about it being windy enough for two Squalls (thanks for the emails about the great play on words ;). Little did I know that I would find myself shadowing AbbyShot as they investigated creating great new partnerships in Chicagoland.


Unfortunately I wasn't privy to their agenda, but I knew that eventually they would show up in Chicago Comics, a mecca center for all things related to comics, right by Wrigley Field. Sure enough, in walks part of the AbbyShot team to meet with Eric. If you are a Doctor Who fan at all, you can't resist trying on these coats, and the crew at Chicago Comics couldn't wait to succumb to the intoxication of the Doctor. There is definitely a look of joyous excitement that comes over anyone who puts these coats on. It is as if the power of the Doctor somehow morphs into the coats. Add to the fact that the owner of Chicago Comics is an accomplished mannequin artist (as can be seen in this shot of the shop), and it soon became evident it was a marriage made in Heaven.

These coats are to be experienced, so if you are lucky enough to be in the Chicago area, drop by Chicago Comics and feel the great quality of these coats. You will find the Eleventh Doctor's Jacket and Bow Tie flanked on either side by the Captain Jack Harkness Coat and the Tenth Doctor's Coat virtually in the middle of the store. Perhaps you, like Eric and his crew did, will even be able to try one on.

When I return to AbbyShot HQ hopefully I will be able to delve deeper into what new products will be the first to be released in the new year. What do you think they will be? Please feel free to post your ideas below this blog post, or on AbbyShot's Twitter or Facebook Page!

The Wednesday Uplink: On Thursday

I apologize for being late with my post. I tried very hard this past week to gather intel...something really solid. AbbyShot is shut down tighter than Fort Knox this week, perhaps due to the fact that Friday is a holiday at AbbyShot. As a result, it has been difficult to get much dirt. I have seen colour swatches lying about and there is much discussion around the colours green, brown, red and blue. I've hidden my thoughts on those products here, although I can certainly see other possibilities.

Do any of these colours inspire you? Maybe there is a colour there in the leather which makes you think of a fabric coat or a hoodie or some sort of accessory. Perhaps those of you who posted last week are onto something...There is definitely much to be said for an iconic look!

Where do you think AbbyShot should look for inspiration? Please feel free to post your ideas below this blog post, or on AbbyShot's Twitter or Facebook Page!

The Wednesday Uplink: It's Windy Enough for Two Squalls!

Go figure. Just as I thought they lost their marbles, they brought home the prized allie in the form of not one, but two Squall Jackets. That's right, you read it here first! The Squall is back and you get two choices in one. Not only can the Squall Jacket, be worn with the collar on, but it can also be worn without the collar.

True AbbyShot fans know this is not something new. What they don't know is that not only is the Squall Jacket available in a high quality soft leather, but now you can also get it in a high quality pleather, with the same options! It's great for vegans!


So, when you think about making your purchases this week, you now have two more options to choose from.

Remember, you heard it here first!

Does AbbyShot have anymore items you'd love to see in pleather? If so, please feel free to post your ideas below this blog post, or on AbbyShot's Twitter or Facebook Page!

Yours,
