Hey guys, I need your help please! :o)

For my top ten for this months newsletter, I am doing FABRICS! lol. I was watching The Jacket episode, with the suede jacket, and I think it inspired me, haha. I realized, there was a lot of fabrics mentioned. Now, this is what I have so far...if anyone can add, I would appeciate it! - Was lace mentioned? (And I don't mean shoe laces). ---- Thank You.

This is what I have so far.... silk linen wool mohair fur lycra-spandex Suede velvet gortex denim latex Cashmere leather cotton

When Kramer was selling those beltless raincoats with Jerry's dad there was discussion of the material. Also When George was selling his fathers loungewear some discussion of material took place. And Jerry's father I believe argued that his polyester jacket was appropriate for a social outing. "Seinfeld10" wrote in message news:[email]...

Were the Himalayan (sp?) boots Elaine wore (and kept her feet dry) made of a specific fabric? It was in the episode where Elaine had writer's block and could not come up with a description of the boots, until she was walking on the street looking for something (or someone?) and came up with a wonderful description for them.

I don't think it was mentioned, but they looked like felt or something with some sort of fur lining.

I think...velcro, rubber, latex, and plastic don't really count. Or do they? Not too sure. Did anyone find out about lace? If lace was mentioned? Anyone would help! Thanks! :o)

Himalayan Walking Shoes [The Hot Tub] - "Ohhh, I'm exhausted. I've been on this street a thousand times! It's never looked so strange! The faces...so cold! In the distance, a child is crying. Fatherless...a bastard child, perhaps. My back aches... my heart aches... but my feet... my feet are resilient! Thank God I took off my heels, and put on my...HIMALAYAN WALKING SHOES!!! Yes!" - Elaine

I think I found another one, Horsehair, lol...

Mongolian Horsehair Vest [The Shower Head] - "I know what you're going through. I too once fell under the spell of opium. It was 1979. I was travelling the Yangtzee in search of a Mongolian horsehair vest. I had got to the market after sundown, all of the clothing traders had gone, but a different sort of trader still lurked about. "Just a taste," he said. That was all it took." - Peterman

Banlon! How can you forget Banlon?

In "The Doorman", when Kramer has talked Frank into testing his "support garment especially designed for men" "The Bro" or, since Frank finds that name too ethnic he suggests "The Mansiere", they take the idea to Franks friend Sid Farkus who happens to be in the "bra business". (He is the best in the business!) Farkus admits that he himself, whenever he is wearing *banlon*, realises that he could well need a supportive garment.

I seem to remember Jerry also mentioning banlon in some other episode.

Jerry mentions banlon when describing Elaine to Sandi (the woman who plays Elaine in the pilot of "Jerry") in "The Pilot, Part 1."

"Well, she's fascinated with Greenland. She enjoys teasing animals, banlon, and seeing people running for their lives. She loves throwing garbage out the window, yet she's extremely dainty."
