that is an awesome looking jacket! FBJ? what does that stand for…

and i see in the patch that it has the motorcycles pulling the jeans apart so that jacket def has some years on it. Very very nice job on that. I doubt that model is still available

Giles

Deadendpro. Sorry, misled you. The FBJ- 101 (type I) has a red tab - we made it befor the "Levi's incident". The TWHRII (Type II) was post incident to is naked tab-wise. G

deadendpro

no, its cool giles i understood that that jacket was no longer available the moment i saw the leather patch with the to motorcycles pulling at the jeans. Man, great design on the patch back in the day. Also, iron hearts arcs were some of my favorite back before the lawsuit.. i still like them now, but the ones before were soooooo slick! But what did FBJ stand for giles?

Giles

FreeBee. It is another of the brands Haraki has sitting under the Works umbrella. G

^ Thank you Giles, that is freaking awesome! i learned something new to file into my modest denim knowledge. thanks very much!

Till‚ quick update pics of the Baxter boots I bought a few weeks ago. Worn with 634S

Thanks, Stewart. Those look great! Love it. Is it rubber or leather soles? I can't tell from the side which is good. I like rubber soles that have the same elegant profile as leather.

Also, the red t-shirt with the red lining of the coat is just the kind of detailed attention I like. There is perhaps one in a hundred men (if that) who pays attention to that kind of detail. It's true refinement without being ostentatious.

The sole is 'Goodyear Welt' - they are really well made and hard wearing.
The overcoat is a Fred Perry Crombie‚ I wouldn't normally wear a black coat with brown boots‚ but I wore a (Paul Smith) scarf with both colours in it.

Which of these two do you guys like more… i'm kinda leaning toward this one.

or

They're awesome boots dead. I like the "matted" (duller) one below.

The so-called engineer heel (the one that gets thinner at the bottom) always reminds me of Mary Poppins or Witch boots. Too feminine for my taste. The top boot is nicer for a man.

deadendpro

yeah till, i feel ya. thats what i was thinking as well.

Just got these, now only if it'll stop raining so I can wear them out of the house!!!

DougNg

I'm with tfar on the boots, DEP. The bottom one looks like a woman's wedge almost

The top one though…I REALLY dig that boot

What brand/model is it?

Dchill

Are those RW DougNg? They look just like my black RW. Frye makes a chukka alot like that too.

DougNg

Yessir, they just came out by RW for this season. Very stoked about wearing them out

I also have a Frye Chukka, VERY comfy

For the money, I swear by FRYE and RW. I have three pairs of each

DougNg

Btw, for reference: I wear a 9.5 in the GT's with an insert, and they're perfect. For the suede chukka I just got from RW, I also wear a 9.5 but without an insert. So these run half a size larger for me than the GT's

Beatle

Doug - those are super nice. Just wear them - it doesn´t matter if it rains .

I'm concerned that if I wear the light grey suede boots in this torrential rain they'll look terrible too soon. I have plenty of clothes I beat the snot out of, and plenty of boots that I do as well, but I bought these for dinner parties and such and I don't always want to look like I just walked away from working in the forge. That make any sense?

Then again, I don't have much experience with suede. My nubuck boot look like a box of smashed assholes after six months of tearassing in them. Any tips on taking care of suede? I already sprayed them twice with that protectant stuff I got at the market, and I have a suede brush and eraser in case I spill something on them.

DEP, thanks for pointing me in the right direction. They remind me of my combat boots, but a lot nicer
