@LewisStonehouse:

Just a cheeky checkin on these bad boys. Not a cheap date so will be hand to be ready when they come

@Chesson in case you haven’t spotted it, sorry if you have and I’m being a pain

[Chesson]

Hey @LewisStonehouse sorry I missed this mate. Restock on these will be in Mid Feb. I will announce in this thread when they are back in but worth signing up for the restock notifications as well. It's a fairly substantial number of pairs that will be arriving so if you're quick you should be able to get your hands on the size you are after.

[LewisStonehouse]

Thanks @Chesson - I’ll give you a bell closer to the time for some sage advice on sizing

[Oaktavia]

@LewisStonehouse stoked you are looking to get a pair.

[LewisStonehouse]

Yeah dude, timing isn’t ideal because we’re about to move house but all being well I should be able to pull it off

[Oaktavia]

I had to Klarna mine…wouldn't have worked otherwise.

[LewisStonehouse]

@Oaktavia yeah dude looking likely

[JDoz]

Wondering if this new batch you have coming are the Italian Maryam Horsehide or Chromexcel?

They will all be in the Maryam. I spoke with @Chris at Wesco yesterday evening and the full restock is nearly complete, they will be with us before the end of the month. 

[John Galt]

@Chesson Is the brown horsehides also included in this upcoming restock?  Also, any update on the estimated restock timeframe?  Thanks!

[Chesson]

@John Galt there are no browns coming with this restock. Just the black at the moment. It won’t be until later in the year that the brown is back. The blacks will be here before the end of the month 

[Weft 4 Dead]

Have these bad boys landed just yet?

[vaquero357]

…I second that question!

[Giles]

If they had, you'd know….

[Weft 4 Dead]

Just wanted to make sure Chesson & Co. hadn’t suffered some sort of industrial boot-related accident:

[Alex]

We are waiting for the last few pairs to complete.  Hoping for a big restock delivery in a week or two

[Weft 4 Dead]

Nice. Cheers Alex.

How does the Maryam differ from the previous horse? From pictures elsewhere it looks more shiny and I think I read somewhere it might fade to tea core more quickly than the previous hide? Looking forward to seeing these.

[Chesson]

@Nkwkfld you are right in both parts, the Maryam is shinier and it will age quicker. Horweens HH was chome and veg-tanned, meaning it was very reluctant to fade/age. Maryam's leather is just veg tanned. From what I have been hearing from Wesco, the Maryam hides are a lot cleaner. They are turning up with a very minimal amount of defects/scaring in comparison to Horweens.

I have just got off a call with @Chris at Wesco and these are going to be on their way to us VERY shortly. We will keep you all posted.

Thanks @Chesson that's all good news
