Occidental Leather

[Brock]

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.

I have one of their vests, absolutely amazing gear!!

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!

Here’s my bag setup for hanging days
5050 Padded Suspension System
5062 Fastener Bag
5070 Drywall Pouch

And for cornerbead/bullnose install or misc. hardware install I’ll use these with various tools
9501 Clip on pouch
5522 4 in 1

Wow! That’s a seriously bad ass set up!

I have zero need for one of these because I have a Les, but boy do I want one

Another rad set! [mention]el camino [/mention]

[mention]Giles [/mention] check out the site! There’s plenty of cool small bags for minor home tinkering…
like Roxannes 4 in 1 for instance

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.

I barely have a need, but that didn't stop me…

Big Oxy and leather suspenders… About 18-19 months of daily use, Best rig that I have owned so far.

damn your bags look great @BD81 

@el camino nice set-up as well. how you like that pocket kicker?

[A Former User]

@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.

[BD81]

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.

good to know! saw it while ordering materials online. stock levels of it were high with no reviews so passed on it. may need to pick it up on the next order

lol you're right about them getting hot! had to take the padding off and scrub/soak them down a once or twice due to that very reason but nothing beats their comfort.
