Starting my week off just right! Gonna throw some burgers on the grill and smoke this LADC Reserva. Cheers to the weekend

The robusto vitolla was perfect for this one. Nice toasted nutty flavor mixed with the leather and cocoa on the back end with a hint of spice. Nice medium to wind down

Still need some breaking in for these but they are coming along nicely.

First time trying an Ashton. Flavor is bold but subtle. Not pow in your face. Cedar and espresso bean mix well and then comes the leather and earth. Really nice rich flavor and the V cut really focuses in on the draw with this one. Will be grabbing a few more next time!

Really enjoying this leather at work. First week was kinda dreadful but it did get better.

Just got its first wash and looking great! Rides very smooth.

What should I try first??

So far a real easy smoke. Real nice light sweetness to it. Can taste some oakiness and bourbon from the barrel aged for sure!

Just got my first 2 pairs of bravestar jeans. First 2 pics are True Straight 14.5 oz shogun stretch Japan denim and the last 2 are the Strongman Fit in same denim.
The true straight seem more baggy in the hip down than the strongman. Wondering if I go down a size it would bring the jeans in to a more sleeker straight feel or would it be best to wear and wash them so they shrink a bit? The strongman fit feel just right for me with a little bit of extra waist room but I like the look and feel of them a lot more. I’m a bigger guy 5’11 @ 220 for reference.
Is there a big difference in the slimmer fits than the straight fit?

Out running errands and groceries with my travelers today. Gave them a light brushing this morning. First pair of Bravestar Strongman 14.5 oz and they are pretty comfy too! Taking a cigar break with an Arturo Fuente Double chateau natural right now before I go back out into the craziness. Hope you all are having a great Monday as well!

A for sure favorite when I need to dial back to something a bit more easy going here and there.

Easily a favorite since I came across this brand

The stiffness from when I first got these to now being like a slipper is just crazy. So comfortable to lace these up and just not be miserable from a poor quality boot is more than great.
MS Black Moc Toe Wedge

Guess my brown moc toe idea will have to be put on hold for a bit haha.
DS Tobacco moc toe is like the dream build for me though so couldn’t pass it up! Just wish it was an 8” but 6 will do!

Comp toe WS Brown Hardwearpro first day of break in! Let’s see how these work out this weekend stretch.

Love my MS black moc toes and now I’m wanting a nice brown moc toe to switch out with. Main use would be an everyday wear along with swapping out at work from time to time.
Listed some browns I’m thinking of but indecisive at the moment. Love the 64 brown but wanting something a little different. Any browns or even a “lighter brownish” per say

I did enjoy the few Rocky Patel’s I’ve had since starting back and was trying to let this sit awhile but just kept catching my eye with the label! Something a bit more smooth for today.
