Rodeo day 2, but my first day with the 633 XHS. This 25oz is no joke! Took them out of the box, threw them on, and headed out of the door.

Also day 1 with the IHSH-246 natural. Shoutout to Self Edge for having 1 random xxl in stock. The brighter blue color is gorgeous! Might should’ve waited for an XL. Oh well.

One of my favorite spots on earth. Terlingua, TX. Just outside of Big Bend National Park. This is a yurt the wife and I enjoy staying at when we need to unplug. This area has one of, if not the, darkest sky in the US. I happened to catch this shooting star one night.

The silky boys. Unfortunately lost the little one in my lap a few months ago.

Here are my daily drivers from Morris Boot Co, in Fort Worth Texas. It’s a really great little one-man shop.

The owner/maker takes extra pride in his stitching work. When I went in to get measured, he spent at least 30 minutes showing me all of his current work and would always fawn over the cleanliness of the stitching. He even took me back into his work area and demoed his Landis sole stitcher like a kid with his favorite toy. He had a 1” stack of veg tan that he stitched through just to show off. lol

I had him make these with American alligator. The highest grade gator skins have a very straight and consistent pattern to the scales. I wanted more character, so I found this “lower grade” skin that love and saved some cash!

805s from ReLove and the new natural veg tan field jacket from Master Supply.

Honorable mention to the old Nike X N7 X Pendleton Air Force 1s.

This thread got me looking at old photos. Fifteen years back, double denimed up, out riding Texas back roads with my dad. He snapped the photo.

Some 414 pimpage action.

Japanese indigo hand dyed croc. Not mine, but I saw these at the Fort Worth Stock Show last week. Made by Way Out West. The wife got worried for the bank account until we learned that there are no more skins available.

I’d love to have a wallet made out of this stuff. Might have to bust out my leather working tools.

I humbly volunteer to test discount codes in the checkout process.

I propose we start with 80% and work our way down to 10% in Increments of 10. We must test all possibilities for the good of the customer.

@Alex said in New Iron Heart Website - Launching Soon!:

@neph93 and the search didnt work...

This whole time I thought that was just me. I feel so vindicated.

@Kasi I’m with @Oaktavia on this one. The flare lends itself to no or minimal cuffing. They look killer! Now I’m on the hunt.

@Mizmazzle So you soak it before every wash to avoid marbling, not just once when you first get the item?

@suitcaselife Is presoaking supposed to help prevent this?

@mclaincausey Personally, I don’t think the rules of F1 are going to have any effect whatsoever on Audi’s R&D for their mass production cars. I think that’s a load of marketing BS that F1 likes to tell fans to make us feel more connected to the production cars that the constructors are trying to sell.

The story I heard with the v10 thing was that it would be a 2028-2030ish change if it happened. It wouldn’t affect the 2026 car specs. I for one would LOVE to see the hybrids go away and the v10s back. These 20 cars and the whole F1 organization’s only purpose for existing is to entertain us.

pokes F1 with stick Do something cool.

Has anyone ever had indigo transfer on their shirt from tucking the shirt into your jeans?

Seems like it would absolutely be a problem, yet I don’t think I’ve ever seen a photo of this.

@WhiskeySandwich The FIA and F1 has been on a backwards decline for a while. It feels like they are out of touch with fans and continue to drift further and further away. My guess is that it’s a top down leadership issue. Trying to suppress drivers showing personality. The shift to v6 and hybrids. The 2026 shift to a 50/50 hybrid split. The ban on active aero. To me, it all says “We are out of touch with what fans want and we don’t care.”

I’ve been happy to hear that they’ve considered bringing back the v10, and the addition of more active aero freedom in coming years. Maybe they’ll let the drivers be themselves at some point in the future as well.
