RTS Seconds I picked up on Father’s Day. Seconds because there is a little tear where a thin section of hide gave way, but it’s on the front of the upper and nothing that should ever be an issue. Fit is perfect for me (I go 1/2 size down for pull-ons).

There is a lot of leather in a pair of these! DS Natural is such an amazing color to patina, can’t wait to get some wear on these, but they won’t get much until fall.

Added in a shot with their LL64 little brother to show how these will patina.

Both are epic and are great additions to my Nick’s belt collection (they make boots, too…lol).

u/Grain-and-Twill (or anyone who knows) is the contrast thread used on the Nightshade just the normal brown boot thread, or something different? I want to swap my boot stitching to match when my Nightshade Tankers come into their change window.

Thanks for making these awesome belts (and boots)!

This is my first 1925 last and I love the look and fit. I have a Parkhurst last Overlander and much prefer the 1925. In fact, I like these so well that I already ordered another pair in the May sample sale in Telluride Blue in the exact same build, except I was able to remove the pull loop this time (thanks for adding that option to the sample sale!).
