Glad I got out of this early. I've bought a few things from Epaulet and I'd say this is my last transaction. I've ordered a pair of combat boots that came with shoddy leather with loose creasing everywhere that they deemed normal, and an M65 jacket that literally fell apart because of an insane amount of loose threads. These were both close to $300 each FWIW.
And no word from the Epaulet owner now after he was so keen on selling and advertising the drop initially in this thread. Just radio silence.
Don't waste your time with this company.
ennuiI got out as well. To be fair, the lion's share of the blame should be with the Portugal factory. The fact that there hasn't been a word yet on what caused the delay is unprofessional and the blame for that does fall on Epaulet and Massdrop.
This is speculative, but perhaps the factory made some bad investment choices with the money it received in advance of the order and now they are unable to actually pay the workers?
