    Leilah just sent me pics of my finished custom The Marling in the new brown cordovan leather. I requested an action back and camel cotton drill lining. She explained to me that in person and most of the time it looks like a rich deep brown but shows different shades depending on lighting. Here's...

    Born and raised in the Philippines before I moved to the US, there's a lot of local craftsmen there that I think would do well abroad if only they could set up shop.

    Never would have guessed that from Field Leathers, dont they use Shinki & Badalassi? I heard those smell really good. I guess it could reallt be the storage/packaging conditions like what happened with the Rugged West YouTube review.

    I really hope the issue with the leather smell has been resolved. The only brand-new jacket I’ve ever bought was my FiveStar, and while I love it, I’d rather not deal with that chemical smell out of the box and the whole airing-out process again. (Guess that’s what I get for the price lol) I...

    Thanks Leilah for addressing this and taking accountability. In any business, you need to account for a % of bad outputs made, but as a customer you don't want to be that unlucky statistic. Mistakes happen, but how they’re handled matters, and this is a green flag for Rugged West. I haven’t...
