Chilly and damp spring day here in Philadelphia. So black Iron Heart horsehide, and some JMM shades.

Hot tub soak, and wash (slow rinse) and hung to dry. Worn about 8 hours. Lofgren CXL roughout combat boots because the they’re a great match

I've been here on and off for a pretty long time, and then mostly as a casual viewer. Giles et al, you are a victim of your own success. Which, to no small degree is an enviable place to be.

The fact that you take the time to explain to the would-be haters is admirable.

Fact is, no, you can't have them right now (if out of stock). Fabric production, space at the workshop, and a multi-product line are all contributing factors. People need to get a grip and understand, you don't need any of this. It's that they want it And they're not willing to wait. However exercising a dash of patience and you will be rewarded with some of the best fabrics made into the highest quality denim, in the world.

Rambling post over. All IMO and YMMV

Meant to post this yesterday, but better a day late than never.

Eastman Leather Company House A2, ball cap, and tanker boots.

Shirt by Freenote, Iron Heart 634 21/23 jeans, Hanks Belt, Jacques Marie Mage sunglasses, and a Marathon CSAR

JMM (Hammond) out for the afternoon

After some UPS consternation, mine arrived safe and sound in Philly. Off to soak and wash

Intermittently forget this is hanging in the closet (circa 2014)...

Been here forever, kinda, lol. But Philly, PA here

Hi @atlasfields, I have replied to you via email; however, speaking to the crew here, it may be folding the leather strap under itself to create friction and reduce slip. Has anyone had this type of issue? If so, what are your fixes?

Somehow, not smart enough to figure out how to send you a message. Please drop me a note, I’m interested in the horseshoe 8.5

Love me some Papa Nui hats. Think I have 5 or 6 of them at this point

Anyone have an issue with the buckle adjuster not hold tension? Not a huge deal. More of an annoyance. I emailed the Crew, so I’m sure I’ll get some wise advice. But curious if anyone else has experienced this. For good reason, I don’t want to bend the buckle and take a chance of breaking it.
