I would so rock a tweed sportcoat, though speaking of tweed how's the collab with Farinelli's coming? Just excited for what you have coming down the pipe.

Got some shots for you. These are the horsehide boots after about 3 weeks of wear. No polish, no treatment, no nothing. Looking at the shots, I probably should have cleaned them first - but this is truly keeping it real! I wore these in the rain quite a bit too. The finish and color tone is fairly irregular, and differs from boot to boot. The horsehide has a really interesting grain, and will move from totally smooth to heavily textured. Compared to the usual cowhide workboot, these really stand out.

And they are comfortable. Despite their height, they're fairly lightweight. Break-in is really fast, and the soft insole makes these really easy to wear all day long.

Thank you very much for those pics. I really don't need another pair of boots but I like the way these look even better in these pics then in the stock photos.....I may have to cave in and get a pair soon. I've never been a huge fan of the wedge style sole but this one looks pretty good I think.

No, I haven't really mentioned them before. I was updating my signature and figured that the "Coming Soon" thing would be a nice touch. I should have these within the next two weeks. I haven't received the final pricing from them, but I estimate that the retail will be in the ballpark of the Context makeups.

I've got a TON of stuff on the way. All sorts of collaborative and exclusive new items. I'll keep everyone updated.

Epaulet,

The horsehide boots look great! I ordered a pair in size 8.5 a few days ago...I understand that you now have a full size run, so should I receive them shortly? Btw, I find my Thorogood moc toe boots more comfortable than my Redwing 875s and they have better details like a storm welt. Never understood why Thorogood is not a more common/visible brand.

There's a lot of good stuff coming, but this is one of my favorites - 100% wool buffalo check.

yeah that would make things so much easier if it was tailored to your sizes!!!

Thanks man! We shipped your order yesterday via UPS - I'll PM you the tracking no.

Thanks - the tie is $60 with free shipping. We'll have it on our website by Thurs morning. I'll post the links once they're live.

Tell me about it. I think that consistent sizing is really crucial - especially when you're a brand that does a significant amount of mail order business. All of our blazers and jackets will match up nicely with the shirts.
