Indys are the true balance last....these are the Barrie last??? I believe....

More rounded toe shape then the indys......its pretty subtle looking in photos thought

Here is a Pair of Alden x Leather Soul Pitt boots in Natural Horween CXL i picked up a few weeks ago. the last pair at Leather Soul BH

they are turning into my new fav.

hahaha! dude resole those bad boys and fall in love with them again!

i got cats paws for days! and some that fit indys!!!!

email me! i will hook you up!

makes me sad to see those well loved indys go to waist!

sorry, i have a HUGE soft spot for well loved O.G. 405s!

way cooler then the horween ones imho

shameless plug... my old 405's in the supermarket.

I just don't need two pairs of 405s. But they do look better with age...

those are the best looking indys i have seen in a long time!

sad you are selling them. hope they find a good home.......

do you ride a motorcycle with them? they have have that look about them

that Damascus ball and post snap made me orgasm !!!!!!

Thanks Mr. Nic! Yeah its pig skin. There was no horween logos on the cordovan pieces...so I did that to add some class

That whiskey wallet is sewn with sewing awl thread. Finally gave it a try after your recommendation. I dig it. It lays really nice in the hole

I can see why its your go to thread.

Thanks guys!

I am super excited about this little project! plus i get a new pair of boots! so its a win win for me lol

things are really picking up for my little business. i am shocked! since i have a crappy website and just a facebook page. and my drunkin hobby is turning into a legit thing.

heres a new design i have been working on. wanted to make some simpler designs

and a wallet design for front pocket wallet dudes.

whiskey and ravello shell cordovan

and a little tooled wallet action

I have been collaborating with a local boot maker to make the first Blackacre Horween HORSEHIDE Boot!!!!

I am beyond happy with the results so far. i will post some updates after the new year. if anyone is interested that is......

anyways, was at a local shoemaker supply store today picking up some of the last details needed for the boot. and in a dusty corner in the back of the store i found this little treasure trove

^^dont be buying up all my horsehide . Or I will hunt you down!!!! Lol!

Lucaas I would give horween a call.BUT! You are going to wait FOREVER!!! And your going to pay about $9 sqft

I am lucky cause my buddy over at autumshere.com orders large amounts of horween stuff thought a rep. And I can "attach" my little orders to his at a good price.

But I use maverick too. They are a bit slow to respond sometimes. But super nice family owned company.

I am hoping the boot project happens.....but I will be entering some custom engineer boots I am getting made from some of my stock of horween horsehide. Just trying to pick what color I want to do. Brown,black or Burgundy. Hmmmmm....

Who is worse, the guy who made it or the asshole who buys it?? Lol

Jaw, I think its super cool that you make nice leather knife rolls for chefs. A untapped market! They look great! Good chefs have good knifes...I am sure they appreciate a nice quality roll to carry there prized items in. A truly great niche item

Lazybum- thanks a man. I really wanted to do a black stitch....but I am a bit of egotistical maniac, and like to show off my stitching. Lol...as far as floating pockets....I did them like a flathead or redmoon.

Hollows....I do local craft deals all the time. I focus on $20-$40 items. Braclets, leather wraped_ bottle openers,belt loops BIC lighter sleeves etc etc, I bring my expensive stuff but its more for show and helps sell smaller items...just my two cents

Congrats mr. Nic!

Beyond cool! Wish they would have dropped your name though.

Paleo dig the passport holder

lazybum, you kill me with every post dude! great stuff!

been awhile since i have posted anything....thought this one came out pretty cool. black shell cordovan and black bridle wallet , with light brown sinew stitch. i also did floating pockets on this one.

Well done marine!

Cool stud work! !!

Your stitching is looking better with every post!

What kinda leather are you using?

Btw!!!! I never thanked you for the buckles

...they are so cool. I am saving them for a cool project in the near future

I too am a big fan of siewa thread.....but its crazy expensive.but I dig that its flat so it lays in the hole like sinew giving a exaggerated staggered look that I really love.

When it comes to thread it really depends on your awl size.

second attempt at a long wallet. Stitching is so sloppy

Looks good dude! Stitching is a crazy thing! Takes time to get it right.

If that's your 2nd wallet long wallet I would wear it with pride!

Thank god!!!!! I have been going through pyc withdrawals! Cool guitar pics Mr corter! !!

talking about Chippewa.

what do you guys think of these?

fitpic from styleforum:

Killer boots !!!! Are those NOS? Or a new model I am not aware of.

Info please. I am a huge chippewa fan. A great boot for the price.

Wicket & craig! Best veg tan imho!

lazybum!

hands down one of the nicest wallets i have seen posted in a long time!

yes, simon is right about the concho, but to each their own.

love the decorative stitching, and over all design.

what brand of veg tan are you using?

looks like some decent quality stuff.
