After introducing Last & Loom from New Zealand last week we now welcome Viberg Boots to London otherwise not represented in this city. Many on the forum will be familiar with this family run bootmaker. If not read on.
Viberg has been hand-making boots since 1931. It is widely respected for its superior craftsmanship and considered to deliver the best quality work boots in the world. Over 200 steps are taken to make each pair of boots and this is all undertaken by their skilled craftspeople at their home in Victoria, British Columbia.
The Boondocker is Viberg's interpretation of the standard issue WWII US Marine boot. Adapted from their Service Boot pattern and crafted out of an exclusive reproduction of Horween’s original Natural Aniline Chromexcel leather. From the thread to the eyelets, every detail has been considered and kept as true to the original as possible. The toe box has been left intentionally unstructured and will collapse naturally with wear. The 2030 last is a Canadian military silhouette, slimmer than the US marine boots, and ideal to wear with slim cut jeans.

-Leather Sole

Sigh…beautiful. Just beautiful .

Reapers, skulls, coffins, and bears. This is the world of Richard Colman, an artist based in San Francisco. He explores the darker aspects of life with imagery that combines the sinister with the comic. The human condition on canvas or in this case on a 100% wool blanket in another stunning Indigofera collaboration.
The Bear and The Coffin blankets are both available.We have also introduced two new additions to the regular blanket collection. The Cotton Graphic celebrates Indigofera's love of nature's natural fibre used with skill to make the beautiful fabrics of their clothing collection. The Montauk Stripe is one of our personal favourites for its warmth of colour.
"A blanket from Indigofera is, besides a beloved friend that will age and gain patina by years of cuddling, a handcrafted design piece that proves the old saying that Quality Never Goes Out of style"

Two years after launching the remarkable SF0121 jean Steel Feather returns with 3 new denims.
They are all unsanforized / shrink-to fit. They lose one inch in the waist with a soak but stretch back out by one inch after a few wears.
The fit has been slightly modified with a wider thigh while still retaining a slim tapered silhouette.
All inseams are now 38" raw and will shrink down to 36" after an initial soak or wash.
All 3 styles have a button fly, strong polycotton constructional stitching, herringbone cotton pocket bags and lined back yoke, and a natural cowhide leather patch.
The SF02AI 14 oz. jean is rope-dyed in natural indigo with a unique fade evolution. The SF0215 (15 oz) is a repro style denim in both weave and texture.The SF0216 (16 oz) has a touch of slub due to the varying thread weight and promises some great fading for this very reason.
All denims have been crafted by hand in Okayama's specialist small batch denim houses.
These jeans are only available at Rivet & Hide; purveyers of the rarest of denim.
Available in sizes 31-38. James is 189 cm tall and weighs 83kg. He wears size 32w in all images.

Since we opened the brick and mortar store in April one of the biggest pleasures we get is seeing new customers walk in and flip out at the quality of the fabrics our brands develop. Sometimes, when a final shirt sells, we kind of miss seeing it on the rail. But we soon replace it with something new and equally stunning and feel good again.
The winter 2014 collection from Iron Heart includes this extra thick 100% cotton western flannel in purple buffalo check. We had to order it in. The IHSH-101 one of our favourite pieces of the season. This will keep you warm and looking pretty good throughout the cooler months. The double brushed lining will ensure that.
Available in sizes S, M, L, XL & XXL
Junior is wearing a medium shirt. He weighs 65kg and is 173 cm tall.
We also restocked the super slim 555 jeans in the signature Iron Heart 21 oz denim.

Forumites will be familiar with this shirt by Iron Heart but we finally introduced it alongside the black version. The IHSH-33 western shirt is made from a deep indigo selvedge denim. 12 oz. in weight. Junior grabbed one as soon as it arrived.

Went into Rivet and Hide today with a mate from Aus, amazing selection of denim and quality service!
Spent over 2 hours talking denim, meeting @Winchy and trying on a heap of jeans.. The highlight was seeing my Aus mate pop his raw denim cherry and walk away with some Hiutt denim!
Thanks again Danny and Junior for the amazing service and patience as we tried on a heap of different cuts and brands.
Anyone in England/World needs to check this store out, a very pleasant experience
Cheers

Our collection of leather goods made by the master craftsmen at Obbi Good Label has grown considerably of late. Each of their wallets is cut and tightly stitched by hand.
We have chosen mid-size wallets with rein attachment, elegant billfolds, travel wallets, and coin pouches.
The Boondocker Wallet is inspired by the boots issued to the US Marines throughout WWII. They have adapted the pattern from the back on the boots, putting it on the backbone of the wallet. They come in Latigo Horween, Japanese Natural Top Grain, and Black Aniline cowhide leathers.
They have 4 visible and 3 hidden card slots, a zipper compartment, bill slot, and leather rein attachment.
The A2 Mid-Wallets have a unique shape with snap closures and are ideal for keeping multiple cards and notes in a neat and organized layout, in true Eastern style. Available in the same leather choices as the Boondocker wallets. They contain 4 visible and 2 hidden card slots, a top down bill slot, and zipper compartment.
The Long Trucker wallets are based on a bygone time when work pants had deep pockets to hold big wide wallets. They have 3 card slots, a bill slot, and zipper compartment. Ring-rein attached. All are veg-tanned Black, Natural, and London Tan.
