"Serenity Browncoat"

Browncoat fans unite! AbbyShot has created the Browncoat popularized by the sci-fi TV series "Firefly".

The AbbyShot Firefly Browncoat is here!

July 16, 2005

Spread the news around the 'Verse! The AbbyShot Firefly Browncoat is now available and is a breathtaking garment!! This is a western frock coat that will very quickly become your favourite to wear, regardless of if you are a Firefly fan or not!

Every garment has all the details that have made AbbyShot a world leader in screen-accurate clothing. We've acquired a suede that has the best combination of colour and texture to match the TV series. The sleeve cuffs are made in a distressed leather to give it that "field-tested" look. The buckles are our special achievement. Each of these fantastic, original pieces is made of brass and has a unique "antiqued" finish. These buckles work wonderfully with our Firefly Browncoat, setting off the look with a level of realism that is beyond our wildest expectations! We're convinced that Firefly fans will fall in love with this garment the moment they see it!

Check it out now and let other Browncoats know that the wait is now over! AbbyShot Firefly Browncoat

Revised Pattern Undergoes Testing!

March 30, 2005

We've studied our first sample from last month and have made several revisions and improvements to make it even more screen accurate. The next stop: making a final version in the actual suede! We're getting VERY close to release time, which is making everyone around here extremely excited! The production sewers are eagerly looking forward to working on a new garment design. We're all like a bunch of six year olds on Christmas Eve whenever a new product is about ready to go out the door! :-)

The vest that the character Zoe wears in "Firefly" has received some interest as well. We're not sure if there's enough interest to justify developing it though. So, we're throwing it out to the Firefly/Browncoat/Serenity fan community. Do you like this? Do you think that AbbyShot should develop this into a new product? Contact us with your opinion!

By popular request, here are a couple of full length views that show the entire length of the sample Serenity Browncoat. Several of you were curious to know what the bottom looked like from behind, so here it is! :-)

Sample Serenity Sewn

February 16, 2005

The Serenity Browncoat "first draft" sample coat is made! This is the prototype that we are using to test the construction details of this garment pattern. The sample coat is made in a low cost fabric for testing purposes only prior to sewing a finished version in the suede leather.

From this sample coat we will make observations on the ease of construction and note any design adjustments that need to be made. Already, we're taking notes on further refinements and adjustments to our existing design that will make it even more screen accurate. Presenting this garment sample to the public is an open invitation for critical review from the fans. What do you think?
