Just wear them. Problem solved. They become accurate to you

But really, since the 4th film was released the current color became screen accurate....so whats the problem?

Get the color you like, not the one the movie dictates to get.

Mola Ram

Thanks everyone. Should be okay....I just plan on wearing them in. The initial tightness has gone away. The first week kind of stunk. I've worn them so much in the past two weeks I've almost wore the entire heel down. (not a joke) Walked about 100 miles on trips in LA and Orlando. Man do these **** ...

Mola Ram

I just kind of hoped and stuck it out....they are incredibly comfortable now. My only worry is that they are just slightly not wide enough. My pinky toe is resting over the top of the storm welt just a little bit. I've always had this problem though and I don't think its severe enough to get rid of ...

Looked in the archives here and on style forum.... There was definitely too much space in the front of my shoe. I went back to the store and exchanged my 10.5s for 10s. According to the branock device I take a 10D, so I went with precisely that. Left foot is absolutely perfect. Right foot is pretty ...

Recently was lucky enough to pick up a pair of 405s in natural chrome, by all accounts my "dream" shoe. I wore a pair of 405s size 10.5 D for years and they were always a little tight. I bought these in 10.5 and only after leaving the store discovered that they seem slightly larger than my...

I recently retrieved a box of my first whips from my parents house that had been away for storage. I opened it up and discovered that all of them had developed mold.....Is there any way to solve this issue other than completely unbraiding the strand sets and re-greasing everything? This is something...

I got a response back from Alden and they said that I could order the replacement curved rubber heels through an Alden dealer. Yeah, right???? Today I took them to a reputable local shoe repair to replace the rubber only. $18.00. I will post pictures if they screw up! Jake Huh? That is new if that ...

I still believe the Hubertus knife is the screen used one.

Keep going with it! I started at your age. Cracking is a fantastic hobby, and a great stress reliever. Have you ever tired making one yet? Give it a go!

Mola Ram - The email I sent you through your site bounced back. I am posting this here since you just mentioned that you are working on the site and others may have the same problem. Just doing the heads up thing. I know how it goes since I have a site too for my own art: http://www.johnbrosio.com ...

Mola Ram

check the website again :P (im fixing that right now) I'm switching web hosts to go daddy, and redoing my website, so the one that's up currently is not 100% recent/accurate. I'm still making the holders. A new hide is due in wed. For those wondering, I asked Benn Scott for his permission before mak...

Mola Ram

I was just looking..........I actually have the BAG and the BOX I originally got my wested in 5 years ago in my closet!

Mola Ram

WOAH!

I NEED THAT DONE!
HOW MUCH, and how did you arrange it?!

My jacket needs the same exact things done to it!

Mola Ram

Does anyone have pictures of his boots with wear on them?
Thanks

Hey all, I broke out the replacement Aldens Schmidty sent me. I have taken them for a spin after a coating of Pecards along the trouble spots in the last pair where there was extreme and rapid leather wear. This pair seems to be exhibiting what could be the same problems. It's still a little too ea...

Mola Ram

Mcfly, I'm not bashing Bernardo, and Strain is VERY conservative on his times, I've ordered quite a few from him, they normally get there sooner than he says. Remember, the dude is a SEASONED veteran as far as whipmaking goes. The two I ordered from Bernardo took a very long time, and it was not be...

That really bothers me though...now that i see that...I'll never forget i saw that.

Mola Ram

I've got a pair coming from Bryan on Thursday. I'll be sure to post my results after I've worn them for a month. I have a pair from 2005 I can compare mine new ones to. My 2005 pair are as a hard as steel, and my dad has been wearing them daily to work. Could it be possible that the stock of the pai...

Mola Ram

I'd say,
but that would ruin the fun for everyone else. Considering you told me multiple times this was on its way

It looks great!
Whoever the maker is ;-) his work always looks consistently amazing.

I've never seen his site before, but a lot of this work looks really nice.

Mola Ram

You will not be! I have handled over 15 of skips side by side with a Morgan, and honestly they are probably tougher and more accurate in terms of "rough and tough" use. He makes a really really solid whip. Worth every single penny. Its a serious work whip, and is a beautiful piece of art. ...

:o I don't know what to say honestly... Walt's encouragement when I first arrived here gave me the confidence at the age of 11 to build my own bullwhip, which in turn funded my film making, and without his nagging and pages and pages of advice to me there's no way I would have made that, or be as mu...

Mola Ram

meh.

Whatever. Just retelling a story i heard. I've also had really really bad experiences leaving leather goods outside in the summer, so I totally believe it.

Mola Ram

lol. Good point. If you leave them out in the sun, constantly drying and wetting the stitches can basically make them loosen. That's all I'm saying. I remember on another forum someone did that and the stitching holding the vamp together started to tear apart because the stitching was so brittle fro...

Thats extremely bad to do to leather garments.

that's cause there is not any.

Mola Ram

I put a coat of Pecards Leather Dressing on there...then dried it on low heat with a hair dryer to let it really soak into the leather...I did this about 4 times...

Any shoes can be fixed by a good cobbler. With the way the economy has hit many people, the folks who repair things (shoes included) are seeing a lot more business. Look in the Yellow Pages under shoe repair then go to the place that looks the oldest and hasn't been cleaned in 25 years - that will ...

Mola Ram

If we are thinking of the same thing, that's how all boots with stitching on the sole are. Take a look at this shot of new and old Aldens for example. http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d7/AldenShoes/405%20Indy%20Boot/IMG_1395.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d7/AldenShoes/405%20Indy%20Boot/todd...

No School!

LOL.

I'm really hoping for it.

6 inches of snow and then freezing rain. No Alden here!

Mola Ram

looks like you put a pen into the inside pocket and it leaked.

Mola Ram

Haha. You're lucky. Got around a foot here. Snowed from Friday morning till this afternoon. And 4-6 is expected tomorrow night! Only shoes I've been wearing the past few days are rockports and hiking boots. The Alden of Carmel lug soled boots are actually pretty appealing. As far as weather here goe...

Mola Ram

It's pretty much impossible to wear regular Aldens in ct in the winter. I'm sure you can back me up about this "Don't Call Me Junior!". The 12"+ inches of snow we just got made me pack my shoes up for the winter. :lol: Its impossible to walk in them. Wearing them would be a death wish...

Mola Ram

well, my question is this. The pair I own are size 10 1/2 D. I've had them since I was a freshman in highschool. My feet have NOT grown width or length. I'm sure it has to do with the arch. I never really felt like they fit correctly. I'm 100% positive i wear 10 1/2 E. My toes are in the correct spo...

Mola Ram

Nah, I'm talking about my width.
Length is perfect.

Mola Ram

This is NOT your typical post about sizing. My problem is this. When i stand up straight, my entire small toe is over the welt of the shoe, as in, its resting on it. What IS the proper sizing? should my foot be flesh to the welt? Meaning, should i be able to put my thumb on the welt, with no push fr...

Mola Ram: You make a good point (albeit, dressed up in a strange reference :) )... but, maybe it IS part of the hat making process...

Mola Ram

Could it possibly smell from the burning process?

I thought mine smelled of smoke initially, then realized it smelled just like what the last hat I was making smelled like when I did the final process, which is lighting the hat on fire....

By the way, Welcome Tony! (though I've NO clue who you are or what you make. )

Tony made the CS jacket.
The numbers are for the jacket number.
People who ordered them got a numbered jacket
1-777. That was the run.

Mola Ram

I've had very good experience with my cowhide jacket.
The only thing thats fallen apart on it is the liner. But thats
no big deal considering how I treat my jackets.
