I have the D rings on my goat jacket. They slip all the time and I even have them turned so the flat edge is out and they are doubled back through. It probably only slips now because of my backpack at school and seatbelts in the car pushing against the straps. I personly like the look of the D rings...

Thanks for the info guys

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

Well I guess that explains it because I have been thinking that my jacket is about 2 to 2.5 inches too long. I wonder If I should send it back and get some material taken off. I have had it about a year now and it hasn't raised up at all so I don't know if it will, mabey goat doesn't rise up over ti...

Mat Cauthon

Does anyone elses jacket bunch up a lot at the bottem and push out a lot at the chest when you sit down and the jacket is zipped? I was just curious because it is not the most comfortable thing in the world and has kind of bugged me since I got my jacket.

My Right boot just started clicking a few days ago. Also the stiching on the moc toe is becoming frayed for some reason and a stich at the top of the boot has come out of its hole. Other then that the aldens are the most comfortably shoe I have ever worn.

I got a pair of those tropical wool marine pants that were in another post. I took those along with some pictures of the pleats from the Wested pants to a friend of mine who has been making clothes for 30 some years and asked her about making the indy pants for me. She said she would and the first p...

I've got some Huberd's shoe grease that my grandfather recomended to me. It darkened the boots and seems to be working well for keeping the shoes soft and waterprofe.

Has anyone else used Huberd's?

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

Sort of, They have an atomated reply right now that says they are not going to reply until the 7th. But since I did the fix I mentioned in the first post not one stiching has come up and neaither have the ones that I fixed. Im not to worried about it since the fix seemed to work so I will wait for t...

Mat Cauthon

Got the aldens cause my other shoes were worn out to falling apart. I also got them cause they are supposed to be extremly good shoes and I wanted a pair of shoes that will last me a long time so I didn't have to buy more than one pair. Besides that, I do have another pair of shoes, they are a black...

Mat Cauthon

Well I just sent Aldens a email inquiring about the situation. So I will see what they have to say about It.

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

Yes the blackberry bushes did have thorns in them. If any more stiches start lifting I will call aldens immediatly, unfortunaltly I have to leave for college in 2 weeks and my aldens are my only shoes. hopfully my fix will be all it needed cause it was worring me a bit that the stiches had started l...

Mat Cauthon

I just got my aldens a little over a week ago and have worn them every day since then. That means I have been wearing them to work too. The past couple days I have been working outside and in the blackberry bushes. I noteced that a couple of stiches had raied up and one of them was partly torn. I di...

Does anyone know if Peter will make a cotton raiders with a COTTON collar that is uniform to the jacket instead of a Corduroy collar.

Thanks

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

I am ordering another from the email address so that I can take them apart, make a pattern and have pleats on it and then make a few pairs out of a matterial that is machine washable, and the right color. I will le...

Mat Cauthon

Thanks for the replies guys

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

I would rather not go though the hassle of canceling the order but if they are not going to be long enough then I guess I will have to. I emailed them about it so I guess I will just have to wate for a reply befor I do anything else

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

Well how do they know what one of there three lengths to send when all they ask for is the waist Size? I'm curiouse cause I ordered a pair due to the fact they were cheap. The size I ordered was a size 30 but the length i am hopping will be at least a 31 or 32

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

So do these pants come long and unhemmed so you can fit them to size for the length?

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

How often should I put products on the aldens. I just got mine in the mail so should I order some pecards and put it on right away? Also will pecards help take the sound of the leather rubbing together on the upper part of the Boot? Thanks for the help Brendon P.S. Would Red Wing shoe care products ...

Mat Cauthon

yup its fraying but at this point it is fayed about half way down the belt so I am getting new ones. I just needed some info so I could possibly keep it from doing that in the future.

Thanks

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

Swindiana wrote Where is it falling apart? Think If it is where the buckle attaches, I just feed it with more belt to hang on to. Tightening that folding clasp a bit helps keep it in place if needed, no problemo. Let me know what the trouble is and I might be able to help you out. I've been fiddling...

Mat Cauthon

WhipDude wrote both colors look great with the rest of the gear, but I tend to go for brown more since im going for raiders. but has anybody had any problem with there belt material falling apart due to tightening the belt tight? I have had the same problem with the matirial falling appart. Does any...

Mat Cauthon

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

That would be good probly.

Thanks Swindiana, now at least I now there is some possibilty of measurments or somthing floating around.

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

Does anyone have a pattern or know of a place to find one cause I would like to make my own and not pay such a high price for a shirt that is accurate. Thanks Brendon P.S. instead of making another topic I will just update everyone on some new gear that I have gotten, I got an Mkvii from WPG and I h...

Mat Cauthon

THAT WAS SO....... FUNNY. I wish I could have heard it instead of read it.

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

I have worn my wested goatskin in the rain many times and it has not affected it in the least. I havent added any kind of water proffing or pecardes and the water just seems to sit on the surface just like a rain jacket.

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

Looks like it has tapered from front to back. From side to side maybe a little bit but not that noticable to me. But I wouldn't take my word for it im not that great of a judge when it comes to hats.

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

Now, who can guess what brand they are? lol

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

Cool, I hope you enjoy your new shoes J_Weaver

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

Thanks for the replys everybody. Some time in the middle of summer I will probably order a pair and hope like heack that for some strange reason my feet don't grow again after 3 years of not growing.

Whats the best way to figure out the right size?

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

I have been thinking of purchasing a pair of aldens for some time now and I was wondering how long do these shoes last before they need to be replaced? I have been wearing a pair of vans shoes for about 2 years now and they still have some wear to go befor they need to be replaced. If a regular pair...

Mat Cauthon

Nice MKVII. Welcome aboard and good luck with lossing your Spare Tire

Mat Cauthon

What kind of tie is Indy wearing while teaching his class in Raiders of the lost ark? What kind is he wearing in LC?

Thanks

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

Thats great. You almost got a chance to do an indiana punch to his face

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

Rixter I didn't have time to read your comments befor my last reply, But I assure you now that I have, I was laughing at it. I think sometimes we all have an internal desire to do such a thing to an intollerable child

Mat Cauthon

Guys, Guys, I don't have any problem with the comments I get. I just thought you would like to hear some of the funnie comments that people give me. Thanks any way for your concerns.

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

Nice. Thats a great way to look at it

I don't care if they make the comments cause it just lets me know who is insicure about themselves.

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

I have been wereing my fedora every where I go since I got it and intrestlingly enough I have gotten very few Indy comments. Actually I have only gotten one tottal, but the range of other comments is quite intressting. My new favorit is " That is a tall hat" that is all that is said with n...

Mat Cauthon

So Indy didn't actually were officers Pinks, He wore English Riding Pants?

Mat Cauthon

Are the officers pinks that Indy wore from the British army or from the U.S.A. army. Or does it make a diffrence??

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

Ummmm

But it will store just fine with out it as long as it is sitting on the crown and not the brim right?

Brendon

Mat Cauthon

Hey Jess It was in the rain for over 4 hours and got soaked through on thursday night. After I got out of the rain I tweaked the shape of it abit and set it on its crown to dry. By the next morning it was dry and was looking great. I am very glad it holds up so well in the rain.

Brendon
