Now LIVE! I posted the biggest video I've worked on: Malaysia might have the most passionate raw denim community in the world and almost nobody in the US knows it exists. Meet the people, the shops, the brands, the obsession: https://youtu.be/-MDtEkfeVgs
Jim Green's moc toes only come in EEE width, and yet they're totally wearable on my regular-width feet. As for whether or not they LOOK wide, I'm not sure — what do you think?
Jakkrabbits might be the most underrated Indonesian boot brand, so I thought I'd share these old pics I just came across. These guys usually have faster lead times than their competitors and they're one of the rare Indonesian boot brands that have a good website.
You might not know there are denim fading competitions, and even if you did, you probably didn't know that Malaysians consistently dominate the podium!
Had a great time hanging with the surprisingly vibrant community of tropical denimheads, and meeting the man who made my most worn jeans: Ken-ichi Iwaya of Pure Blue Japan. Also shot some great videos I can't wait to show you guys later this year!
What's your favorite boot for summer? I just wrote a list of mine, and I even found Chelseas and service boots for the anti-chukka crowd: stridewise.com/best-summer-boots/ (Peter's brown ones are from Crown Northampton, mine are Red Wing's Weekenders)
This is one of those posts that's dumb to make because you can't buy these boots OR this leather anymore, but I shot these Grant Stone Ottawa boots the other day and realized I could show how natural (undyed) vegetable tanned kangaroo leather looks after a fair amount of wear.
Incas, the Italian tannery, actually stopped making this leather, but you can still get natural veg tanned kangaroo from Maryam, the best known producers of the stuff. Briselblack in Indonesia is making Chelseas that take 6 months to arrive, or head here to see Grant Stone's other kangaroo leather boots: ktku.co/1mo
Props to Grant Stone for being the only brand that consistently offers kangaroo leather boots!

KANGAROO LEATHER: New vs Old.
