yesterday the new PETER FIELDS wallet rope arrived. the rope is made by their selves in berlin: a made in germany thing combined with brass hook and shackel from japan. it is made of a vegetable tanned leather. i got it in brown and hope that they will do a black one too because it works so good with my TANNER GOODS wallets i own in black and oxblood. good job ANIE & co! some more facts: total lenght: 46,5 cm (18,3 inch), hook: 7 cm (2,8 inch), shackle: 2, 5 cm (1,0 inch). pics | LTG
very nice and extraordinary. can’t remember seeing such a short shift western pull on boot made by VIBERG. looks very classic and smart, 8″ short, round toe, tan suede HORWEEN leather fitted with a VIBRAM #705. available at EMPTYGARAGE, japan … where else than japan?! i think this boot will get a great look when it is rugged down. pics | emptygarage
what a nice found @ wonderful woodlands site: the INDIGO WOODLANDS promotion, watching at some really nice blue colored TANNER GOODS stuff. here is what WOODLANDS say about their promotion: “Spring time in the Northwest means we can look forward to a few of our favorite things, all in shades of blue. Fresh wild blueberries from the slopes of Mt. Adams, the clouds parting for periodic blue skies [a welcome sight this time of year.] or coming up on a clean copy of Donald Byrd’s Blackbyrd [Blue Note Records, 1975] at our local digging spot. In the spirit of blue, we’re excited to offer our Standard Belt and Key Lanyard in an Indigo Chromexcel colorway, exclusive at The Woodlands and both make for the perfect companion to a new pair of denim from 3sixteen, Tellason and Rogue Territory. Additionally for the next week, we are offering a special Indigo package. Simply navigate to the Indigo collection page to purchase a brand new pair of denim, and an Indigo Standard belt of your choice for a specially discounted package price.” i like this bklue leather stuff: is something different than all these tan, brown or black, redwood pieces. maybe UWE c/o AMTRAQ DISTRIBUTION will bring this navy stuff sometime to germany. pics | WOODLANDS
i think a lot of you saw these so beautiful oxfords at past blogs from the RWS shops or the blogger community after last years fairs. but today i got some official photos from the RED WING HERITAGE EUROPE central that i must show you. great shots. here the informations from RWS about the shoes: “Red Wing Heritage has just released a few new round toe oxfords for the Spring/Summer 2013 Heritage Work Collection available in Black Star (8051) and Brick Settler (8052). Inspired by the sports, dress and work styles of Red Wing oxfords released in the 1930’s the round toe oxford is the perfect combination of work and play. The smooth grain Settler leather (8052) accentuates beauty marks like scars and scratches with a distinctive luster, contrasting with the full grain Blackstar leather (8051), which has been finished to provide a uniform appearance and color while providing resistance to water, stains and perspiration.” by reading LTG blog you know that i am a great oxford fan and so i just reserved a pair 8052 at volls.de – i just phoned with KLAUS when the RWS mail came in. pics | Red Wing Heritage Europe
me, i do not have a use for an apron, but i like it, especially this leather version by MOORE & GILES. the 24.25“L x 30.75“H apron is available in two colors and i am sure it will age beautiful and gets a great patina by using it at daily work. both are available at the MOORE & GILES site each for $ 375.00. pics | MOORE & GILES
