New Vereen Jacket Model Shots Hit AbbyShot.com!
The Vereen Jacket Answers the Call of the Wild!
One of our favorite things here at AbbyShot is seeing all the great pictures that our fans send in: it really does help to see our clothing on real people.  Whenever possible we put pictures on our site of AbbyShot clothing being worn in the field.

The Vereen Jacket is one of our proudest pieces and it really does look great on everyone (our very own Mark proudly struts his stuff around town wearing his ;) But don't just take our word for it, see some new photos for yourself on our Blog!

The AbbyShot Team braved the elements on a cold, windy, AND rainy day (like many Fall days here in Newfoundland) to take to the beach for a Vereen Jacket photo shoot.  The elements actually worked in our favor because we took some really cool shots with the fierce sky in the background. We love these pictures almost as much as we love the Vereen Jacket itself.  Big thanks go out to our good friend Adam for being the perfect model for this shoot!
Mad Max Jacket in September Issue of Empire!
Empire Magazine - Sept 2009 IssueAbbyShot loves the UK's Empire Magazine (probably the best film magazine in the world) and it would appear that they love us right back!

You may remember that back in their May issue they featured our Vereen Jacket in their monthly "iWantList". This time they reviewed our Mad Max Jacket, here's what they had to say:

One of the great movie leatherwear articles (up there with The Matrix, T2, and Cruising), Max Rockatansky's was cooler because it was his uniform. This spot-on replica is available from Canadian clothiers AbbyShot, and they've started producing screen-accurate matching gloves.

CON-test Winner Crowned - A "Major" Victory!
The AbbyShot Photo CON-test Winner, Dana!
Thanks to everyone who entered last month's CON-test!  We always love seeing pictures of our fans wearing AbbyShot gear at their favourite conventions. The photos were all great, but there was only one who stood triumphant above the rest! And that one is...

Contestant #2, Dana!
 
She was a perfect Major Motoko Kusanagi at MetroCon in Florida. Our GIG Shrug has never looked so good! 

Sure the satisfaction of being crowned our CON-test winner is reward enough, but Dana will also receive an awesome new Kingdom Hoodie! Thanks Dana, thanks to our runners-up Jay and Dominic, and thanks everyone who voted over the past few weeks!
Customer E-mails - October 2009 Edition
An AbbyShot Customer Takes the Kingdom Hoodie to Magic Kingdom!
This month, our customer emails are all about interesting combinations! First, we hear from an Australian customer who loves wearing her new GIG Shrug with her corsets (in her own words: "The shrug works so well with these it's like they were born for each other.")

Our second featured photo comes from a Kingdom Hearts fan who took his Kingdom Hoodie to Disney's Magic Kingdom in Florida! I think the hood might even be big enough to fit over a set of "Mickey ears". ;)

We always love hearing from you, so keep the emails and photos coming. In the meantime...
