@Graeme:

@seawolf I saw your jacket on The Fedora Lounge earlier and it looks awesome.

110 hours of saddle stitching though? You need to get out more!

haha! thanks for the kind words. I've been stuck at home for 13 weeks, and I guess this is what happens!!

I've been stuck at home for the last couple of months. Now I feel bad about not buying leather and spending the time stitching!

Client submission. Thanks @Pipeboss713

[popvulture]

@seawolf nice!!! Are those Cobra buckles?

[seawolf]

@popvulture you know it! I was saving them for a special project. This was it for sure.

[popvulture]

Man, awesome — I might have to hit you up sometime, been wanting a black leather messenger for a long time but haven't been able to find one that checks all the boxes.

[seawolf]

@popvulture that’s kind of my specialty. Checking those boxes!

I want to give a huge shout out to Zach @seawolf
I’ve been wanting to take up a leather craft hobby for a while now. Zach has been the most supportive and helpful friend I could imagine. Dude has offered so much advice, been on call for answering questions and just been an all around legend in helping me get the ball rolling. Thanks a ton dude!! I’m having so much fun learning these new skills. It’s only my first little wallet, but I can’t stop looking at it and holding it. What an incredible feeling it is to create something.

[seawolf]

@Mizmazzle Dude, you are beyond amazing and I'm happy to take you under my wing.

For anyone looking, this is his FIRST PROJECT. What?!

You are off to an exceptional start, my man.

Wow. Great stuff, kudos @Mizmazzle

Today, as most days, I’m wearing my ZeeBee saddle stitched belt.

[Mizmazzle]

@mclaincausey thanks man. Excited to see what I can learn to make.

[seawolf]

@mclaincausey the OG ZeeBee belt! Damn, you've had that thing for a long time.

[jerkules]

@Mizmazzle looks amazing man, you taking orders?

[ZackB]

@Mizmazzle hell yeah man. Came out super clean.

[Mizmazzle]

@jerkules haha...I'm gonna field test this thing first, make sure it doesn't disintegrate after using it a few times. After that, anyone looking for cheap leather goods made on a steep learning curve feel free to hit me up haha.

Kind of like going to the local dental college for cheap dental work done by students!

Thanks @ZackB I learned a lot on that first go round that should make my next build that much cleaner!

[seawolf]

@Mizmazzle Apprentice-level leather goods. A great place for some great deals!

[Mizmazzle]

@seawolf another fine industry lesson. Selective word choice in advertising!!

[seawolf]

@Mizmazzle One of the best parts about learning leathercraft is getting to make stuff for yourself to field test. You can make a new wallet every week and it'll only cost you a couple of bucks and a few hours of your time. It's fun and you get new gear whenever you feel like it.

@seawolf I had one close call where I left it at airport security years ago. Luckily was able to retrieve later from airport security. This was at the Minneapolis airport so at least a decade ago since it was before I moved.

It has zero signs of giving up the ghost anytime soon.

I decided to condition it today but will post an evo pic when it’s dry.
