Cool ring!
I suppose it is related to the beautiful dog with you in your pic?

Good eye. The ring has my dog's whisker dots, and my boy certainly has that wolf look.

Oi - check em Brothers and Sisters,

My mate who is a master jeweller made me this custom wolf ring which has great significant meaning to me (Tale of the two wolves)

Made from 925 silver and yellow diamonds for the eyes. It's very special to me, I hope you like it. The skull on my pinky in GHWD.

Does anyone know if a Tote type bag would be sufficient to carry the hat on the bike? If so any recommendations. Obviously a hard case is ideal, but they seem to be super bulky.

Cheers

Thanks guys, It's custom from from beaver by Baron Hats

@chrisjohnnick Thanks, I will have to order from the US I imagine so if you know of any Nashville shops that do international shipping that would be great. If fact it has to go back to LA for an adjustment and could probably have something shipped to the maker.

Cheers

Hi all,

I am trying to find a bag to carry my high quality Western hat while riding my motorbike, I can pad lock the bag to the pillion handle or a shoulder type bag should work.

This isn't a cheap hat, so I don't want to stuff it up.

Hat brim measures 14" wide, 16" front to back and 5" high.

Points added for who can recognise the hat LOL

Thanks @68degreesorless and @pechelman

I have some Filson Macinaw gear, but have moved away from Filson these days. I just picked up some Freenote last night.

Cheers

@goosehd said in Wool Jeans/Chinos ?:

@Jase68 Maybe one of the Harris Tweed trousers: https://www.aeroleatherclothing.com/shop/clothing/trousers

Cheers mate, yeah, they look good be they only have the smallest is stock. RMC again have very small in stock as they need to be purchased oversize to wear hight.

Frustrating that both leave out whether they need to be dry-cleaned - I would bet they do. But mush appreciation for sending me these links

@goosehd

Cheers mate, I only wear smartwool socks, love em. Icebreaker do a couple of decent Chinos, they do make good gear, but now manufactured off shore in China, but certainly quality Chinese manufacture. I just seem to have turned into an IH bloke over the years and Japanese quality in general for outer wear.

Wool jeans or Chinos

Being someone who rides my motorcycle all year round I do get caught with soaked denim. Now I do know that jeans and chinos are not the ideal protective bike wear. I also have over wear rain pants. Obviously wet wool will still keeps you warm.

Being a big fan of Japanese vintage quality, I am asking is anyone knows of a Japanese made wool trouser - ideally they can be machine washed like merino,

I have searched, but haven't seen anything.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

FWIW I have been riding for 30 years, so I really don't need advice on bike specific protective pants. I know their benefits

I've got the Johnny Cash from a few years ago, which is awesome, But this Embroidered version gets so many compliments that I have to make sure I don't wear it too much LOL.

This style of embroidery is next level in my opinion. I didn't pick up the other items in the collection as they didn't appeal to my personal style.

Please don't drop embroidery, especially in Western Shirts. Embroidery on Western shirts goes way back, but many are too Rodeo and few have this this level of style and balance. Denim and flannel may suit more people. I gather the sales will dictate the continuation - I don't know if there is a possibility of embroidery being a pimp out accessory, obviously this would take time to complete.

This really is a killer shirt, I get so many compliments on it. I'm actually surprised there are still some available.10/10 for me. Love to see more releases with this style of embroidery - Western flannel shirts perhaps?

@AdamJ said in Changes to The Marketplace:

@Jase68 try now?

Thanks Adam, I can see it now. Thanks mate!

I might have the dumbs, but I can't find the marketplace and have 91 posts plus ones I can't see now on the marketplace ?

@Dmart:

Yes I just saw it on the website.
I will have to check on all the options that he offers in terms of customizing, leather etc. to really understand and anticipate how it would look. That is quite easy with Wesco because they have a configuration visualising the changes.
I may reach out to you again if I may.

No probs, he is an artisan and there aren't the options like Wesco, Nicks, Whites etc. But you do have one guy hand building the boots. The only comparable maker is the states is JD Gabbard from Kreosote and same kind of wait list, and he won't do any changes to his boot styles or leather choices LOL but again he is awesome when you speak with him. Both make grail boots and far less people own Kreosote - insanely good and a couple of boots he designed specifically from riders - oh and Brian from Roleclub is also working or has completed his new bike specific boot as he recently bought a Harley.

@Dmart:

How about taking measurements? They send you a form?

Yeah, he has a form, it might actually be on his website. Brian can be a little hard to get online response from initially, but once you open up dialogue he is great

@Dmart:

I love the role clubs. I hope I will make it to LA and then wait for three years 
And +1 for the beach bar.

Cheers mate, the Role Clubs are awesome. You can jump the queue if you are prepared to pay a pretty big extra fee for fast custom made - then you are looking at about 4 weeks.  ???

@Jett129:

Love the Beach Bars,and definitely looks better without the shield,but I can’t ride without one.

For sure, I've always ridden cafe racers without any shield so wanted that same blast ya face off when I went to a cruiser - I guess  I'm just a masochist LOL

@Jett129:

No windshield? That would keep you a little warmer/drier.

I took the windshield off and put beach bars on the first day. I like the 1947 style
