The Brave Little Coaster
Nicks Coaster in Wickett & Craig Natural Veg TanBy calljeef • April 3, 2026"This little coaster has experienced more than it probably should have. Drinking at least 3 cups of tea a day has shown its mark, especially when I brewed in my gaiwan as I tend to spill some tea each time. The tea definitely stained the leather and darkened areas. While less messy, normal coffee cups put defined rings. I think the extreme heat and water contributed to some pretty extreme warpage...."Read the full review

Worn Nowhere. Worn Constantly
Oak Street Bootmakers Oak Street Bootmakers / Country Loafer in Horween Natural Chromexcel RoughoutBy moznme • April 2, 2026"These are my house shoes.
Not in the cozy, slippers-by-the-fire sense. More like: on my feet all day while working from home, walking to the garage, taking out the trash, stepping onto the street, and trying not to eat it on snow and ice.
Most days, they’re on my feet from morning to evening. Not doing anything more dramatic than sitting at a desk or lying on the couch, but constantly flexing, shifting, standing, walking short laps around the house...."Read the full review
My home made boots made it through!
Schmittworks Sw919 in Canyon Black By Sb FootBy Schmittworks • April 2, 2026"For work I am a "production technical trainer" so I spend half my time in an office and half my time on the factory floor. At work these boots got covered in dust, smeared with molten plastic, scratched up by ground up plastic chunks, and walked across concrete.
At home I wore them shoveling, cutting the grass, working on minor home improvement projects, and around the workshop welding grinding and blacksmithing...."Read the full review
