That's not the cordovan one, is it? I feel like i heard you say something about thinking about getting a cordovan flat head, if they even make them. These pictures are making me want a flat head so bad now.

Actually.. we have a custom FH leather catalog and instore customers can pick and choose any leather type/color, zipper/buttons, enclosures, etc..

We've sold about ten so far custom made for customers..

The real deal is going to go down at the Flat Head party next month where Flat Head is BRINGING every style of wallet they've ever made and people can choose their own styles, leathers, etc from real samples, not out of a catalog.

braidkid...if you have loot, try to get these guys to copy it.

Thanks for the link but i'd much rather restore this one as it is the real thing and has sentimental value.

Anyone have any further recommendations of where to send this for repair? I'd spend good money to make sure it's done right.

holy crap! that is insanely cool... :eek: but wait, eddie don't live in the US... :confused:

edit: braidkid, you could restore that amazing jacket and have a copy made to actually wear, so the real one stays in perfect condition...

Don´t have before pics because this taylormade antilope jacket has been in my family for almost 70 years.

i was lucky I was chosen to inhert it. It was made for the uncle of my father who died when my dad was only 4. After that this jacket has been used by my grandfather, father, his best friend and me.

In the third picture you can see some signs of a red pen wich blew out in the 70´s

that jacket is absolutely amazing. is that you wearing it in the last pic? seems to be a great fit

[callejeros]

Yes it´s me on a Montmartre on a really cold day. I´ll post better pics without the sweater later

[fre-co]

Nice stuff lately, eddie, I just ordered that flathead reign, how is it?

[po_boy_fuuma_hatesbargerz]

callejeros: when I first scrolled down and saw that, I went, "oh lord, fashion abomination," but after looking at your fit pics, it looks rather amazing. Nice!

Skull belt after 11 months. it was originally tan, i cant believe how dark it got

[fattybfat]

really like the contrast between the dark color and the silver at the tip

[farmer]

Tanner natural belt. Treated once with Obenauf's. It saw a lot of sun from working outside. Around a year of wear.

[who8mahrice]

Couple of months each, forgot exact time usage.

Need adviced from Redmoon wallets owners...

[40ozprophet]

[corter]

BLESS leather strips, evo update:

So I've been wearing the one on the right since february or something, then after a couple of months clipped the one left of that onto it in it's "raw" state and just today clipped the 3rd, fresh one on (this is how they all started). What you get is a long bracelet that wraps around my wrist 3 times and shows 3 different stages of aging/evolution.

Here's a post I made in May when had only worn one thus far.

(please excuse the hair, heh)

really?

i've got 7 cards in mine, u probly need to keep putting em in and taking em out to stretch the leather, start with 1 or something.

[Tiro]

so, I was bored, took some pics and decided to post my belt after all these nice belts...

my redmoon belt (and silver buckle), worn for about 5 months and a half, tanned and oiled before wear and now oiled for the second time (I use wesco bee-oil)

I'm just wondering, does the leather look in good condition? is it supposed to be grainy like that? I worry too much about this belt, but it's because I love it so much...

[40ozprophet]

man, beautiful belt! thats really nice.

[jackers]

Such a nice belt.

[kiya]

Cotton, please bring me three of those.

I haven't wanted an accessory that bad in a long while.

Or direct me to an online store where i can purchase three of them.

PS. I miss your wrists.

[Tyro1]

cotton's Bless leather is really cool...
