Ship John

I too was lucky enough to get my hands on too. The sizing was wrong on my first one so I’m currently waiting on Mike to remake.
He is moving his operation to a larger location where he can put more of these out.
He’s got a goat leather on he’s trying out, which looks pretty cool. Not my cup of tea, but still cool…

Mike Elias of Ship John was on Dean Delrays Podcast this Week (as where many other Brands that are of interest here e.g. Wesco, Selfedge and Goodart) :

@Dstauffer the larger location you are talking about just so happens to be a space in one of my dads buildings in North Portland! I’m looking forward to meeting mike and building a good business relationship with him and his partner.
As Rueben pointed out earlier I have a Clark knife in Natural leather and I’m super excited to own a wills jacket in the future.

Thats so cool @Brock! I have a ton of respect for him and his operation. I am sure you two are gonna get along great!
He's connected with some of the other outfits IH collaborates with (ie Good Art and Wesco) and has a similar mindset in terms of making quality pieces.
Here's to your hopefully long-term relationship with a cool brand and a kick ass dude!

I’m really looking forward to it! He seems like a real genuine guy. He has promised my dad and I each a wills jacket so we will see what comes of that. If I get my hands on one I’ll update with pictures here.

Edited thread title as the question mark seemed superfluous now.
Just straight ‘Ship John’ might be better…? That way we can include all his rad gear?
