@Giles
what is the Phoenix run Giles ?

[Giles]

When we decided to make them again in 2020......

From Google....

"The phoenix rising from the flames is a powerful, ancient symbol of rebirth, renewal, and hope, representing life emerging from destruction. "

Random question, is @Giles in the forum banner? Or was he taking the picture?
I can't seem to spot you out unless you're the third person in the back row...

[Jord]

@cyclops Could be, that's what I thought too! Maybe the sunglasses are throwing me off

Are they treated with oil or are raw natural.

Because when I soaking the jeans. Do I need to treat it first
Thanks

[Alex]

[daugustway]

@Kasi I was wondering the same thing. I might start conditioning my leather patches on my jeans after washing. Something like Bick 4?

[Kasi]
