They call me a diesel cowboy

SLC, industrial twill MOSSYOAK vest, Filson X Wrangler Adventure Jean. All purchased new, none at full retail.

I’ve seen these pants receive some distasteful reviews on this sub- I am a huge fan of them. Maybe the only raw denim I wear, they have sparked piqued my interest. I really do enjoy the pattern of tin cloth for the work I do. Keeping your ass wet from whatever seat it dawns, and your shins/ankles dry from buckwacking through last nights rain or morning dew. I purchased this pair full price close to the release, months later I returned to the store and saw the black pair in my size at half price. After chatting with the clerk, they did a “price match” on my old pair, and I essentially walked away with the black pair only paying taxes. It pays to go into the showroom and engage.

This vest, while I question the efficacy of wearing camo at work, is a daily driver. The material seems indestructible. It add comfortable weight, protection, and breaks in amazingly from it’s stiff out of box feel. The patina on the snaps has to be my favorite. These did not seem to sell well, and I got this 70% off on the Filsok website.

Not much need saying about the SLC. Iconic, functional, comfortable. Combined a code and promo on the website to have this at my door for around $100 off MSRP. This one was a sort of “grail” for me. Decided to go with new tin cloth to add my own patina- still go back and fourth on finding an USA made piece.

Sorry.. the shirt is Marmot workwear, but my favorite weight of cotton work shirt by far. Chunky buttons are awesome too.

Should I ask an engaging question or something? Just felt like sharing!

Let’s see your aged Journeyman backpack

Just picked one up last week and I’m loving it. What kind of ride am I in for patina wise?
