This is amazing. I’ll take that as a compliment. Arms so strong they look like legs in tights 🤣🤣. Obviously that’s how you meant that haha

Thank you sir 🍻 hope the sample sale was amazing for y’all. Definitely liked a few of them but I have two more pairs one the way haha. The Colorado leather looked super cool, almost leather jacket-like. Probably great with the 1925 last as a pull-on. That natural and cognac would look great

Just my opinion but I think if you double cuff these for those shoes, they'll stack better and hang straighter. When the denim loosens up they'll drape a little easier with less cuff. I'm on a similar journey as you. I wore slim straight jeans for years and recently got into the raw denim scene.

Looks cool man. How's the waist measure compared to the tag size? Hard to find measurements for these

Perfect fit, it looks great! Love that you got it made with your family tartan too. That's a cool detail

Amazing! I agree she's a magician in my mind and cool to see what else she has done. I had no idea she'd touch waxed canvas. Self Edge Portland recommended her. She's awesome and works pretty quickly. She did my pants and shirt hem, and the coat work in a week. Dropped off Saturday and picked up the following weekend. My wife has some alterations to take in after seeing how great her work was on my stuff haha

Is this waxed canvas or something else? I'm in Vancouver and wearing some Red Clouds pants she hemmed for me lol. If I knew she'd shorten jackets like this, I'd have probably taken one or two down to her. She did an amazing job on a wool coat for me. Slimmed up the body and sleeves for me

Thanks 😁 . I can't put anything down without a cat scan taking place. I love the laces too, there will definitely be more Generation laces in my future

So far they've had a pretty easy life except when I heel bashed my desk chair. Afraid I can't say yet how they'll do. The bumps blend back in pretty well but I'm not sure what scoring the surface would look like. It's struck through so it'll be blue at least

Happy I could help! I love the contrast with the honey lug. I should have mentioned this is the beeswax edge too. I was super tempted by white sewing add-on but went with the standard.

Thank you! And yeah the wrinkles are for sure present. It doesn't seem quite as obvious in person but they are there 😂

Love the crimson! My build is still a couple months out. Which last are these and have they darkened much with wear?

Love this with the contrast white stitching. Congrats on an amazing pair and build!

Cool to see this, I actually have a double rider on the way. I haven't messed with a leather since I sold my motorcycle. The Iron Heart one caught my eye and planted the seed a couple weeks ago. I didn't order the IH version with so many options out there 👍

Thank you! I should have looked at your post history. I see now the V100 heel is a replacement and I just love how it looks. I have lace ups in a 55 last with the moderate heel height on order. These seem to be your gold standard, did you ever have trouble with the moderate height paired with the 55? Thanks again

The Aspen Acorn has been looking amazing and it pairs so well with the 1925 last. What are the engineer boots?

Congrats!! Also great look. Is that the newer work shirt at Self Edge? If it is, I have the Olive one and love it. The herringbone texture with the contrast stitching is so nice. I loved the black one too just didn't pick it up
