Re: Anindyjones’ leather work

Brian’s work is fantastic. Great craftsmanship, totally straight-up guy. I happened to get the first sizing error he’s made to date, and he resolved the issue immediately, shipping me a new belt so fast I didn’t see it coming. He loves his craft and genuinely values customers. And now he’s making be...

Re: Ordering an Akubra Federation IV

After months of wearing it a few hours a night, gently shaping and reshaping it, my Fed is as good as it's gonna get. Fits perfectly, looks great, makes me smile every time I see it. Great investment.

Re: How much does Pecards darken a whip?

I did as instructed, with just a wee bit of Pecards all down the length. I'm glad I asked and didn't apply too liberally or too often. Thanks again for the sagacious advice, guys.

Re: Ordering an Akubra Federation IV

Yes I had the same hesitation. I've been slowly working mine in, and getting more aggressive as time passes. Still a fantastic lid.

How much does Pecards darken a whip?

I searched for this, so hopefully I'm not creating a repetitious thread. My question is, how much do regular applications of Pecard leather dressing darken cattle leather? Obviously there are many factors at play, but is it safe to assume it's not going to drastically darken in a short time period? ...

Re: Ordering an Akubra Federation IV

I ordered my Fed IV last Wednesday. I only check the Australia Post tracking page a dozen times a day. Has yours shipped yet? How long does it take to get out of the shop? It finally arrived yesterday. So that's 15 days from ordering. It shipped right away, but like everyone else said, it sits in N...

Ooops! Sorry. How foolish of me to think there's anything left undiscovered by rabid Indythusiasts. :oops:

Re: All of the "Close Enough" Boots?

Hey all, I just found these today. I don't know anything about the quality, comfort, etc. But at first glance, these seem like a decent option for under $200. Has anyone bought these yet? Go easy on me; I'm new here... https://thursdayboots.com/products/mens-brown-diplomat" onclick="window...
