Redline Rally Y3

@matt_rost I tend to go with Venetian leather creams for my boots that I don’t want to darken. I’m not 100 % sure how to treat a shirt of this caliber but if I had it and was curious I’d treat a small portion of the inside of the garment as a test. Let it sit and see what it does. I’m curious if there’s a thread on this one

[olblue]

@matt_rost and on a side note I always look for the words “neutral” on leather care products, I use this one on all my horween leathers

[Luijim78]

@matt_rost congratulations my friend, it is more and more wonderful great work

[matt_rost]

@Luijim78 Thank you for your continued positive participation in the development process. Two and a half months left, and during this time it will probably see a few rays of sunshine a few times and perhaps change its color a little naturally...

[matt_rost]

@olblue Thanks for the tips. Reading your lines, I now know how I can proceed sensibly and that's why I remembered that I still have a supply of Red Wing Leather Cream floating around here. This product served me well last year on Pecos made of leather with a very similar surface texture and color, so I'll try it out on a hidden spot first. Venetian Shoe Cream is certainly a good option too, I think. I'll have to check availability in Germany, maybe a bit cheaper in the long term given my general consumption of leather care products.
As far as I've noticed, most owners of this shirt seem to just use Mustang Paste, or nothing at all. I will definitely take a different approach in a few months and then document the results here.

IHJ-120-IND. The long road to destruction.

@Mister_Brue awesome, weird and beautiful

[Giles]

Mind blown.....

[JunkPants]

@Mister_Brue Wow, that’s amazing man.

[tody]

@Mister_Brue considering the fact that you use it at work - did you get more mileage out of this than out of dedicated work clothing?

[denim-dawg]

@Mister_Brue This just keeps getting wilder and wilder.. it is like it is another dimension

[denim-dawg]

@matt_rost Delightful and impressive! You really have worn your Rider to the level that it is not so pale anymore - damn impressive

[matt_rost]

@denim-dawg Thank you so much, JB. You're a truly great motivator. Since this is my first competition, I'm curious to see how it will feel as someone who actually made it through a year. Until the start of RRY3, I only watched events like this from the stands. It definitely makes me want to do it again for another year.

Post wash (sans dust) pictures of the IHJ-120-IND for this month’s submission.

Month 10

[olblue]

Two more months folks, soon I’ll be back in the IH slub dawggy type 2, the mister freedom brown duck ranch blouse, as well as my personal favorite my 1980s Lee rider. Anyone else out there looking forward to the switch up. Gotta say though the flat head has been treating me right

[olblue]

@Mister_Brue art! Pure art!

[olblue]

@matt_rost this puppy is howling! Well done buddy

[matt_rost]

@olblue Your jacket looks better and better!

Ten down, two to go...
