My daily (f* a rotation. ;). Anyways, my wife says the whole ‘you need to rotate at least two work boots’ is a “myth perpetrated by ‘big boot.’” I can’t help but agree (though I put em on the peet dryer nightly). White’s c355. Ready for new heels.

Hello、I’m Max from Portland. I’ve been a fan of Iron Heart for a while, and just recently picked up my first bits from the company over the past few months. I’m looking forward to nerding out on denim and related topics with yall in the future!

Heyo, new to this thread. I’ve been fly fishing in Oregon for a few years now. It’s been mostly trout, but I’m trying to break into some rock fishing and migratory species.

Last tie:
Since the run a good fish on pink squirrels has subsided, I’ve calmed down in my fly construction (not that there’s anything terribly complex going on there, but it could be simpler).

F-fly: (once I get some dyed feathers, I’ll probably tie up a rainbow).

Steelhead is like a religion here in Oregon. If I can get my daughter into it, then no one will care how much time I’m out on the river in the dark and cold ;). She loves the flies…also she’s three…so, swimming first.

Finally found/pulled the trigger on one. Took my sweet time figuring out sizing (hope I got there!). I think I’m a little dizzy from all the fit pics and other folks measurements I’ve compared…pics when it lands…stoked!

@Denimhead-0 damn, nice retrotec!

These are amazing. An incredible amount of work goes into one of these. They look great! いつか。

Nice to have friends that have neighbors with peacocks…can’t wait to tie some flys up! Can immediately tell the difference between this and anything I’ve seen off the shelf. Wild. Waaay more shine. Now…who’s got pheasants…

@ZackB love those pants! Looking good!
