Feb 25, 2008: Product suggestion so top secret

So top secret I would be dead if I printed the guy's name or where he worked. But I'll take the chance with the copy/pasting of the email body just because I'm so happy it wasn't another "you guys should do hats."

"I am a special agent trainee for the (take out name of agency so I don't wake up staring into an interrogation light). I spent the last 11 years as a helicopter door gunner where I had the opportunity to put your products to good use. However, my new career path has changed my clothing needs dramatically. As such, I cannot think of another company that might be able to help myself and some of my class out.

There exists a gap between current overcoats and the technical market. As special agents, we spend large amounts of time wearing suits while performing protective details. However, current raincoats/greatcoats do not provide prolonged protection from the elements. They either are warm or waterproof, but rarely both. So, having used your garments previously, I feel that if you could make a greatcoat in the Cold Blooded fabric, you might well cover both needs in one shot. With a few interior pockets to handle gear needs, you guys could fill our needs perfectly. Color would need to be a darker gray, black, or dark blue. There is no need for a zipper in the front, with several large buttons taking that role. Length would be down to the knees.

Would you guys be able to help us out on something like this?"
