Already miss my boots
-
Zip is suppose to contact me upon receipt if he has other ideas but right now we are planning to use bilrites and maintaining a 40s profile also I'm having him replace my buckles with some of his own super heavy duty roller buckles.zips buckles are amazing and blow takeshi's out of the water (dont get me wrong takeshis are nice! but zips ARE SERIOUS BUSINESS!!!!!) IMO

big truck, lamdog123 thanks.
@lamdog123, I think that might be the filter, guess we'll just have to wait and see how it evolves
-
Hardly worn at all actually! I just love the boot and plan to wear it year round… We have quite a bit of rain and snow through out the seasons here in my neck of the woods and the leather sole would have not held up in those conditions.
- edited to not be too terribly misleading these have been worn daily since I received them a month ago, but just not what I consider "heavy wear" as ther is still quite a bit of functional sole left.

@tatman, I had a feeling your soles would have been worn in, interesting to read. Really looking forward to seeing the afters. As you know I'm "on the list" for the next drop of these, and would love to have them as all weather eventually. Will be in Japan for a month in April/14, so maybe then?
Thanks to Jestre, I now have the Troy Deck Jacket. I sized on the upper side of normal to allow much clothing beneath. As usual amazing build quality. This thing is so freaking warm, it's opened up my fall wardrobe again for mid-winter. Looking forward to many happy years of the shittest weather together

Nice pic snowman! Yeah I had planned to keep the leather sole for about a year to allow a good break in on the boots upper but after about a month of serious wear I just decided "F IT" every day it was bugging me not having it exactly how I wanted it so talked to zip and got the ball rolling. I will say that he approximated his turn around at 1-2 weeks so right now at least there is not nearly the wait i expected….
That being said I have been checking out his HTC Santa Rosa engineers and am thinking that they might be next in line after my lofgrens.... Anyway... I am excited for you to get your RC's bud!
-
@Finn, thanks mate. In this case I'm happy you're wrong. Very very happy with it.
@tatman, Yeah I understand that. When you know something's not right, it just weighs you down. Good call!
#exciting :). RE my RC's, I was told I could be in the next batch or even the 1 after (so 3-4 months away). -
The Santa Rosas are really nice, Tatman. Post pics of your RCs when you get them back. I got a pair of RCs a couple months back, but the shafts felt way too big around my skinny calves. So I sent them to Willie's Shoe Repair in LA to have the shafts narrowed. I should get them back next week. I'll post pic when I get them back.

Nice! Will do.
-
I might pick it up too… I feel like a good work to use for MF stuff is "special." That jacket looks super sweet though. I've never really seen anything like it!
-
Oh man, I dig the henleys.
-
Definitely. That jungle cloth and the corduroy lining look pretty damn amazing….I love the really casual look too
reminds me of something my grandpa might wear hahaha
