        Yes! Please do!
        I love them so far. Still getting used to the tool placement. I find myself reaching for different spots or putting tools back into weird spots. But once I get used to them it will be magic…

          I’m at my in-laws and one of our buddies is working on a storage shed. Just noticed he’s rocking some beat up Occidentals.. h said they’re close to 15 years old.

            Definitely one of the best leather bags money can buy. I have had mine for two years now and they are just starting to break in. I will post some pics next time I go to the shop.

                Haven’t seen a properly aged leather tool belt & that 15 yr old one is no disappointment! These bags look like they can last a lifetime!

                                  If I ever return to the states I'll dust it off and post some pics…I wouldn't hold your breath on that though. New Zealand is really winning me over for the time being. 😃

                                          @RoxRocks86 the pocket kicker is one of the best cheap tools I’ve picked up recently. Works really good when I’m hanging drywall. It was an impulse buy when I was getting a new cordless dewalt drywall sander.

                                            You have a pretty sweet set up there yourself @RoxRocks86  I prefer the padded suspenders but they are just too hot for my liking in the summer, they also start to smell foul after a few days lol even more so than the straight leather version.
