Last night my little neighborhood theater played the classic film, I was saddened to miss it.....but driving by and seeing the title on the marqui reminded me of Fred....prompted me to call Teresa. Neither of us have watched it yet today. I am not sure if we will.
It is not lost on me the "quiet" as it relates to everything Fred did. Quiet in demeanor. Quiet strength. Quiet in the woods.
Teresa has a great St Patricks day sale.....so check out her version of "quiet strength"....WOOL.

Wishing that were true Roger. Still waiting on an unfilled order of mine from last July. Luck of the Irish, even on this day, appears to hold no hope.

Wow.....you have been on this site long enough to make 5 posts.....and you use number 5 to complain about my friend. That's all I need to know buddy.
[email protected] is my personal email address. Send me the details and i will look into it for you.

Agreed! It's unfortunate to have to use #5 on this. Much rather be reading posts and learning. Some may call it a complaint, but unless 8 or 9 months lead time is normal for a jacket that was promised in 2 weeks, followed by empty promises on the phone, why, a little business etiquette constructive criticism just might be due. She has my name, phone number and order. Talked to her a couple of times now... says she'll get to it.

I have asked you politely to send me the details to my personal email, and I would help resolve the issue. You haven't done that. Now you are hijacking my thread.
Post by: Roger Norris on March 18, 2025, 08:53:20 AM
You never placed an order. You never spent a dime. What you did was hand a note to one of Teresa's booth helpers at ETAR, listing a complicated custom jacket and water bottle combo and you wrote in your own(discounted) show price :laughing:
Later you called Teresa, and you were so rude that she said to consider the order canceled, that she didn't want to work with you on anything custom. You then shifted gears and pleaded with her to do it. She asked you for a credit card, and you told her that your Dad was paying, and that she could call him.
That's not how Teresa does business.....but she did call....got a voicemail, and never heard from your "Dad".
So here is the final answer:
Your fictional order does not exist. You paid no money. You are either a liar or a scammer, and you are banned from buying ANYTHING from Asbell Wool or Traditional Woodsman in the future.
Other than that, have a great day.

After leaving several voicemails and sending text messages, when I finally did get her on the phone after calling and being sent right to voicemail but then texted her asking how to order and surprisingly my phone rings, I simply asked to understand the status with the order and why messages were going unanswered. "I'm very busy, I'll get to it" is all I got. She said she had questions about the custom label my dad wanted. I told her to call him.
Thank you for checking into it and confirming our suspicions. And fear not, neither of you will have to worry about any future orders coming your way. Apologies for hijacking your thread.

Interesting turn of events. Her recollection, and your conveyance of the history and notably, the last phone call isn't quite reality. Thankfully, knowing enough to have written documentation and recorded audio of what was said when things start going sideways has saved me in the past, so glad to have it here. Teresa, face to face personally wrote specifics of the order on a slip of paper she had. And by specifics, it wasn't very complicated.. a 2" shorter sleeve for my jacket, and whatever sort of piece of fabric she could stitch to the inside jacket of my dad's saying "Custom made for...". And SHE wrote down that she'd honor the show price.

Nope....and I suggest that you stop digging yourself in deeper.

Could get Theresa to cut out the kangaroo pockets and install a spandex patch for future expansion issues.

You can have a one directional zipper or a dual directional zipper. You also can have a drawstring for your hood if you like. You just simply request either or both when placing your order.
Canoe coat yesterday afternoon....

Nice looking Canoe coat the Miss Model is donning. I remember seeing the Green one that was showcased at the LTR earlier this year, and the Asbell Wiseguys that were posted. A lot of those were the collared jacket as well.
Post by: Terry Green on March 21, 2025, 01:35:11 PM
If not check it out, I posted lots of guys with their collared Jackets.

I primarily wear wool . Right down to socks. Rubber boots up hear is the dress shoe in the fall. GF gets crazy. But theres water most places you walk. I will not put rubber boots on without my aunts thick thick wool socks. Even in the summer. They keep your feet dry by absorbing most moisture. Also keeping the boots snug preventing chafing. Pants, quiet passing by brush as well as jackets. It’s harder to come by. And these Asbell wool jackets I’m only just getting acquainted with. They are good prices for wool products. When wet, it’s more tolerable than material made from petroleum products that are clammy on the skin when wet. Every material has its place, but I’m wet so much that I generally go with wool.
Post by: Terry Green on March 21, 2025, 02:51:54 PM
I'd give he a call and discuss what she can use for a collared jacket. I know you can get a one way or two way zipper.

Sorry threads take a turn like this one did, then he apologize for hijacking when he knew he was. Word is already getting out to vendors about this guy. I use to say, where do these people come from, what are these people thinking, how do they get through the day. Now, nothing phases me anymore. I can see why his daddy didn't pay.
I've had my Asbell stuff for years. If I ever need more, I wont hesitate. (I'm eyeing that canoe coat)

You guys should look at getting one of these for your wives. We like cozy, hoods, deep pockets and all. However, we also like for our tails to be warm when we sit down. I absolutely LOVE the length of this coat!!!
You did well Miss Teresa!!! TY TY

BTW, getting banned as a customer is bad new. I'll be spreading the word also. Not sure what he's rambling about elsewhere about some email send, but I don't see the relevance.
Post by: Terry Green on March 25, 2025, 02:58:43 PM
He is claiming that I removed his thread after I emailed him who it was. That part is true. That left 'as is' would lead you to believe the he replied to me THEN I moved it. Not so.
He never replied to me, never. So, after days of not receiving a reply I move the thread to Admin. I had no clue who the vendor was.
I hope everyone takes note of this guy, his ways, and his intentions.

Excellent products and customer service for me as well. :thumbsup:
Love the fit-quality-feel of these finely crafted hunting clothes. It is very clear once you wear them that Fred likely heavily influenced the hunter friendly design that Teresa does such an excellent job with . Hats off ! :clapper:
For those searching for a hoodless version. Do not forget Teresa's LaClair "Longhunter" pullover ! This is one of my favorite late season wool pieces . I lucked out and got the optional hood which when worn with the hood down does a great job of adding warmth without bulk. Layer if you will...Couldn't dig-up field pics , but this (with my best RobinHood look ;^)) shows of what I speak. Very much like the Anorak without the hand pouch , (and ""if"" Teresa still offers them) having the hood separate is a great option . With these you get a little more coverage in length . Great product !

I talked with Ron yrs ago about the longhunter. Ron first offered these yrs back. Ya, you feel a little Robin Hood-E when you put the hood on ;^))
...but, that being said , You soon realize why it's such a great design . Blanket weight , yet very light and comfortable . I actually love the simplicity of this design. No pockets-no pouch...I usually wear some sort of vest (plenty of pockets and extra layer of warmth without bulk be the beauty of vest) so the design just works for me . The added length in the Anorak , the Longhunter, and now the Canoe jacket is a very nice asset (no pun intended;)late season .
So I just thought I should add a little info for those on the fence or chewing on options.
Do like most....get you a few different styles . I'm sure you will love them all ! :campfire:
