Worn for 170 days so far, mostly under a layer of indigo or black denim

Month 9

@olblue This is what I call indigo in its most beautiful shades

The production of the Tote Bag is moving into the next round with a small but subtle change. This little snapshot, taken during work, shows naturally tanned, undyed premium quality leather from Europe and prick iron made in Japan.

New price for this black beauty!

New price - 280 €

A simple western belt, the kind that was very popular in the 19th century. I had it made to my individual measurements last summer and have been wearing it every day since then. Here you can see it in new condition. It is made of 4.5 mm thick Old World Harness leather, and the hardware is made of 100% brass and was made in Japan.

The width of the links is 7.5 mm. Based on the measurements taken, I would say it is the BS-CURBAA model (apparently when I bought the bracelet it had a different product code).

Bump / new price!

@matt_rost Bump!

@matt_rost Bump!

@olblue Understand very well, I like Flat Head very much too, but the cuts... In my case, the chest width is always too small and the shoulders are too large. That is why it's even nicer when I see well-faded examples like yours.

@natefreezy I am one of those who snapped up a few years ago after the first production run. I have and have had many other IH shirts and a few jackets. What I can say is that the BigBuck cannot be compared to any other shirt or material from IH, as deerskin has completely different properties than cotton, for example (softness, coziness, weight...). It falls completely differently and wraps around the body in a very unique way. In my opinion, the fit is therefore much more important than with other shirts/fabrics, especially if you are not wearing it as an outer layer. Since I have lost a lot of weight due to a change in diet, my BigBuck has now become too big for me and I have decided to sell it. My other shirts are now much roomier to wear, too, but they are still very comfortable to wear because they are not as heavy as deerskin and therefore do not "sag" as much in certain parts of the body.

For anyone still looking for a black BigBuck in size L, this is the perfect opportunity!

In the second half of 2020 (if I remember correctly) I was lucky enough to be able to buy one of the very few BigBucks that were brand new in the IH-portfolio at the time and are still highly recommended after today. Since I have only worn it all in all for 3-4 months in these years, it has now become too big for me (weight loss), so I prefer to pass it on to another IH aficionado.

Like all of my things, this BigBuck was treated gently, no stains, no water, no washing, not even brushed No bad smells either, still smells very pleasant of deerskin.

I hope the photos give a good overall impression of the shirt and if you have any specific questions, please feel free to ask.

I am happy to ship insured and within the EU!

The wallet is in excellent, slightly used condition. Calf Leather, still unconditioned. It was only used for a few months and treated very carefully, not carried in the back pocket, always in the front chest pocket.
The accompanying card holder for inserting was used alone for one summer season (front pocket use only, too) and has therefore acquired a little more patina on the back.
I bought this wallet from IH International for over €400 and it was supposed to be my "wallet for life". But now I make and use my own leather products, so I would like to offer it to you here and hope it will find a good new home.

Full scope of delivery including transport box and 100 yen!

I am asking for 280,- Euros + postage, which can be paid either via Paypal (Friends and Family) or by bank transfer.

@olblue Nice dynamic fades, especially on the picture showing the back of the jacket. Beautiful job!

@Mister_Brue What a beautiful contrast between the forearms and elbows to the back!

@Inorganic That's correct

@Inorganic Thanks dude! I just love this thing
