jmfr- The quintesential style of the 30,s and 40,s was to wear your A-2 with loose leg denim that had a much higher waist line and shirts were worn tucked in giving you a look where your jacket hem overlaps the waistband of your jeans.

 

Pretty much the polar opposite of how you are wearing your A-2.

Thanks, I really just threw it on for the picture and took it off after. It's too hot to wear outside anyway.

Question! I bought these vibergs used from the 2030 last for a really really good deal. I love everything about them aesthetically but they're an 8.5d and I'm normally a 9d. BUT my 9d red wings measure the same internally as these 8.5d vibergs. I'm excited!

My OGL goods came today after a long wait due to USPS loosing my package. Got the jane-mid wallet with a D-ring in natural and a woven bracelet in natural also. Really liking both of the products. Great job OGL.

I was on the market for a natural leather keychain but I didn't want to break the bank.  Stumbled across the Etsy of Kame Leather and picked up this bad boy for $15 + $3 shipping.   He shipped immediately and I got it within a couple days.  http://www.etsy.com/listing/106339873/leather-belt-loop-keychain-natural?ref=listing-shop-header-0

 

It is sort of large and I I have stupid bulky keys, but I put them in my pocket so it will just be a matter of exactly where and how I clip to my belt/loop/whatever.

Buco Engineer Boots 5th HORSEHIDE / CORDOVAN é–‹ç®±

They were in stock last week, but I can’t take the photos in time, since their master came so fast to own them. However, it is in stock again today.

 

 

All black box with silver LOGO.

There is some wax of CORDOVAN process leaved on them.

If you don't watch carefully you wont find the leaved wax. Some people misunderstand it as mildew. Actually it is the leaved wax, which can be wiped away by fabric. It will also drop after a time wearing.

The distinguish feature of 5th Buco Engineer Boots is the deerskin inside.

All the sewing places with more wax leaved are fine and neat.

The high density of CORDOVAN is definitely great and looks like rubber. So the shiny luster is normal.

thanks.  I use lot's of elbow grease... lol   It begins with just wetting the leather edge and burnishing it, then I repeat the burnish with a special mixture of natural waxes and oils I made to seal it protect it.

Who knows of the most dumbed down plain simple bill fold around? Looking for something slightly more complicated than two flaps of leather stitched together (because I have one of those and keep dropping bills out)
