@matt_rost It’s finally cool enough?

What do you have in the pocket there? Starting to patina nicely now…

Yes, it's finally winter!
There's a Zippo in my left chest pocket. I haven't smoked for over 10 years now, but I still wanted to have an imprint like that in that spot

[Mister_Brue]

@matt_rost Better staying in your pocket than slowly killing you for sure!

[matt_rost]

@Mister_Brue There's not even any gasoline left in the lighter But I still vape to this day...

[denim-dawg]

@matt_rost It’s amazing what you’ve done to the shirt! Look at the arms

[matt_rost]

@denim-dawg Thank you mate! The arms develop through leathercrafting at the workbench...

I knew I shouldn't have taken the Extractor out of the closet... I just got the penultimate piece of this beauty

[Mister_Brue]

@Luijim78 On a whim. Love it!

[Luijim78]

good morning I'm very happy to have taken one from the old batch, I really like the color and the fit (much less rigid than the Extractor)... if I really have to find a flaw it's that it leaves a lot of micro fragments of leather, especially on the Vest in the back part in Duck fabric, nothing that can't be solved with a good brushing 🪥🪥

Ain’t no windchill with Winona

Enjoying the December sunshine….

That will calm down with a reasonable amount of time and wear. Mine did it as well at first and I haven't seen it in a very long time now. Great looking shirt and outfit!!

[Mizmazzle]

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot pale rider indeed!

[Luijim78]

@goosehd Thank you so much Sir I really like it and I'm so happy to have found another one

[indigostiff]

Apparently this is a thing.... just imagine...

[Oaktavia]

@indigostiff Where are these photos from? That is crazy, I wonder if a hand/thumb print from putting the hat on would show up as patina.

@Giles how about a IHC-06 Pale Rider, Big Buck, etc.?

[indigostiff]

@Oaktavia It's a Papa Nui on Standard and Strange still -- searching "A-26 Cap - Veg Tan Shinki Horsehide" will get you there. There's still some L and M available.

The patina will be maddening lol.

[indigostiff]

Back in for service, she is. The putty stain was just too much...

[Oaktavia]

@indigostiff Oh wow I like it even more from that angle. Did not realize it was Papa Nui.

[indigostiff]

@Oaktavia So clean...

[Oaktavia]

@indigostiff it is a beautiful hat, that is for sure. I just wonder if it would get hot to wear.

[sabergirl]

Dang that hat is crazy. I’d love to put one of those through the paces. I expect you’re right that it would be way too hot to be practical. Maybe also a little heavy.
