Apologies as not the model nor photographer (but at least no urinal in the photo ... lmao jk) as some of you pretty people, but these pants are freaking killer. So comfortable and thanks to @Bailey for pulling out a great fitting pair.

New jacket and pants day. Spring head cold notwithstanding, very happy w/ new gear! ... just in time for Denver "record breaking heat" today

Yo folks. Denver, CO since '92, but my heart is still in the Midwest (WI originally).

Rather than go larger, perhaps some exercise and eat 'mo better? My IH collection will be the carrot (or stick) to keep myself in check. All I can say is that at 54, I'm in better physical shape than my 30's/40's. Stationary exercise bike, rowing machine, TRX stuff and better diet. <Insert Ralph Wiggum "I'm helping" emoji here>

Yoink. Grabbed a large ... really hoping it works out. Shoulder seems a bit large, but looking at what the staff wears ... Closer to Ben/Bailey than AJ (do wonder why Graham went XL).

Justin Townes Earle. I love everything he put out. Taken too soon.

@mclaincausey Ha, you got me. Still listen to them ... got some good stuff out of Son Volt and Wilco as well, but UT was my band back in the day. I really can't get JTE off of heavy rotation these days though. Listening to a bunch of John McCauley/Deer Tick too.

@SKT If Iron Heart made pants to telemark in, it would be these. Pics please.

I think I might need this shirt ... oh the mystery of the new leather.

@CosmoSix5 RoxRocks86 said "Decided to give it a hot wash and dryer spin today ..." Good info ... I'm going to need to baby this one as my large fits well but I don't want it to shrink one bit.

@Oaktavia I really need to get some mushroom socks.

@Oaktavia As I have both the olive and black, it's good to hear SB was good to work with on the repair (and it looks great). Other than shipping it over, was the cost of repair reasonable? If I need it done, I'd rather send it over to the makers as well.

@Alex Thank you sir. Now just don't drop the Pale Rider restock for a month or so, deal?

@Mizmazzle Thanks man ... reminder that I'll have to take another look at the Red Rocks schedule ... Jason Isbell/Molly Tuttle would probably be a good/terribly crowded show. You have the Bareback though, so you've got your fix (mostly) covered. At least that's what I tell myself until IH releases the next thing. <Shakes fist>

@SKT gotcha ... being an old man now, I don't seem to need to worry about bulking out due to exercise it would seem. I'll probably start shrinking from here on out lmao.

@Mizmazzle Thanks man ... leather jacket virgin and been feeling the urge for a bit. Stoked for this one!

I'm wearing mine more ... and because of recent bumps to this thread I scooped up the last pair of Duck Hunter 33's. There goes my IH allowance for the month.
