    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Stichdown Shoecast did an excellent primer on Indonesian makers ("Indonesian Bootmakers Bonanza"): https://www.stitchdown.com/stitchdown-shoecast/all-podcast-episodes/

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    That's the rub with the Indonesian makers. It requires a ton of faith. For Renav, you contact them via DM on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/renavgoodsco/ You select the boot/shoes you want. They ask you to trace your foot and provide measurements. You pay 1/2 via Paypal. You anxiously wait...

    Lost Worlds Ryder sz. 44”

    tempting, but 8 lbs? Yeesh. What does that feel like? Are you constantly aware of the weight or do you just adjust to it?

    Jackets You Regret Buying vs. Ones You Got Out of Your System

    Nah, jacket is still crazy stiff. Need to chop some wood or do yardwork in it to break it in. Thurston seems to be an excellent company and many members rave about them, but the whole point of using them is to dial in fit.

    Jackets You Regret Buying vs. Ones You Got Out of Your System

It didn't fit right from the jump, I was immediately turned off by the straightjacket feeling of the Horsehide, and it just wasn't comfortable or enjoyable to wear. I should have returned it to Thurston, but I sheepishly kept it. I thought going custom...
