I was very fortunate to run into Thedi & Alex who were in the Harry Damson Store in Friedrichshain – Berlin. Thedi with his handsome appearance, who could easily be the the more greek looking twin of Jeff Bridges was hard to overlook in Berlin. His stand at the Bread & Butter at the Fire Department was always crowded. So I had the chance to have a talk with him and a closer look at his leather products there. Thedi who used to design for Harley Davidson Europe surely knows how to design and produce great stuff. Either trim cut leather jackets, rugged belts or leather bags he got it all right. See more of his products on the Thedileather Website. 

Thedileather and Harry Damson products will be distributed by Alex / Cottontrip aka Dr. Love now.

Squale Professional Divers Watches:
Back in 2000 I did about 130 drysuit dives in coldwater in one year, nearly all decompression dives. Maximum depth was more than 70m for 10 minutes and then 50m for another 10 minutes. So I was quite interested in having a closer look at the Squale Professional Diver Watches that Amtraq is distributing now. A non fancy divers watch with all the classical features. A bezel for keeping track of the time (can be alternatively used for backing bread as well) auto eta clockwork, saphir glass and the watch crown later than 4 o´clock. Alternatively equipped with an Nato watch strap or a leather one by L.I. Sounders.

The Heritage Post – Feinschmuck:
One of the most anticipated things was to check the new issue of The Heritage Post as we knew some Feinschmuck products will be covered in an article. But we did not know how many items or pages. Needless to say we were more than happy to see that actually 3 full pages with lots of my images made it in the magazine. Thanks a lot to Uwe van Afferden, and Ronny Schröder and especially for the really well written article to Stefanie Kobayashi.

On the last two images you see Uwe having fun with our latest creation the ancient Roman dices.

Wallet leather leash by Peter Fields

Wallet leather leash by Peter Fields :
Inspired by Eric´s post I decided I´m finally ready for a real wallet hooked by a leash / rope. While Eric opted for the brown and oxblood combo I will have a try on the natural vegetable match. Natural leather sucks at the beginning and has the charme of a beauty untanned at the beach. But as time goes by I´ve always been rewarded by the choice as time went by. The leash is already there. A great product and suitable packed by Anie from Peter Fields. Now I´m excited to get a Tanner Goods Workman wallet to get connected.

Topodesigns Klettersack Navy/Leather

A special version of Topodesigns Klettersack with leather bottom and the lower sides. Very handy for placing the backpack on wet or rough ground. It keeps the rucksack dry and protects the Cordura (Not that 1000 Cordura needs too much protection, it´s already a tough material). The name Klettersack is earned by its functionality and solid construction. The weak spot of a Backpack is always the Zippers. As you can see Topo uses big and tough YKK ones. The lifetime of a Zipper defines the lifetime of your bag. They are hard to replace and if possible, it gets expensive. Avoid a backpack by all means with to small ones or those fancy watertight ones (they are crap).

The size of the backpack with 22 litres is just perfect for your daily use, a day in the mountains or other outdoor activities. With the straps and the additional ones available you will be able to increase the capacity to your needs. I got a serious faible for backpacks and I guess sooner or later my collection will be expanded by a Topo one. (and one with a broken/faulty zipper will get retired).
