Very wise words indeed. Thanks for posting this, it's amazing just how many people don't trust their gut; I for one was scammed for over 5k and am still paying for it. Funny thing is I couldn't do anything about it, money was gone in a flash via bank transfer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

$50 second hand. Its Horween leather which is quite expensive in itself. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just ordered this Horween NATO, anybody ever heard of them, they've got some beautiful stuff. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Most Gen vintage doesn't look anything like it was baked in an oven. A little patina is nice but too much doesn't look right imo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
