Redline Rally Y3

@FlavourFade @denim-dawg
When I saw which leather would be used in the next production run, I had to hurry up and get one of the "old" Pale Riders. I prefer the velvety texture of this Italian horsehide leather and like having to break in leather and jeans properly. No shortcuts, no premature care to soften the leather, that's my plan for this shirt. I'm really looking forward to the monthly updates to see how the different versions will develop in the context of this competition.
The first 2 days my Pale Rider was very stubborn, but by the start of day 3 it had already adapted well enough to my body shape (especially in the arm and shoulder area) that I really feel comfortable in it. Here are more pics from wear day 1

Last year I competed with a Bravestar. This year I’m happy to represent an iron heart piece!

@94atromero Awesome jacket. I’ve been wearing mine daily for the past 3 months and the blues are starting to pop nicely. It’s going to take a back seat to the Wabash chore coat entered into the Rally, but I plan to wear it as much as possible outside work. Can’t wait to see what yours looks like after a year.

@SamD FANTASTIC!!

[denim-dawg]

@94atromero Brilliant!! Such happy happy days! What a piece!

@SamD I've been eyeing up that jacket in the Outlet. It looks lovely.

[SamD]

@Graeme It's a beauty - I've got a pair of jeans in the same denim and love how they've faded, will keep you posted how I get on with the jacket!

1 month update, managed to wear for at least a few hours most days. I've had to wash it once already though, been getting a bit too hot and sweaty here in sunny Gosport ️🥵

[SamD]

@Mister_Brue Yeah, it's coming on nicely. Being honest though, I think my iPhone camera has over-exaggerated the contrast a little here. The fading doesn't look quite so prominent with the naked eye, but it's definitely showing potential!

[Mister_Brue]

@SamD It’s usually the other way around.

Let's see where this goes
