Indy alacantra and friend...

Post by craniotes » Sun Feb 27, 2011 2:58 pm

I took delivery this past Friday of two Indy alacantras ("Lamboshits" in Pat-speak), as well as a brown Heritage and a prototype of the outré orange leather strap Dave showed a while back, and I've gotta hand it to grasshopper -- homie delivered the goods...

Shots of the yellow-stitch alacantra and orange strap are forthcoming, but in the meantime here are some of the gray-stitch alacantra on the Incursion and the Heritage on the 243:

All-in-all, definitely worth the price of admission. :thumbsup:

The brooklyn bridge is a nice touch. I don't have that option anymore!

Cool straps. The Alcantara likes to hold its shape and is pretty comfortable.

The Heritage strap is really nice. In just a few days of wear the leather develops a nice character.

Nope, you have a Lamboshit and Pascolo, not a Heritage. :love:

I'm really loving it on the 243 so far. It's gonna stay mounted for a while, so well see what sort of patina it acquires soon enough. ;)

David, these Heritage straps should be your bread and butter. Once people see how good these are you will sell every one you can make. Buy as much of that leather as you can.

I bought a whole cow of the Heritage leather so that's going to be in stock for a while longer. When I get back to NY next week I'm going to buy similar hides. I'm thinking a lighter brown and maybe a black.

Two very different animals there, but both very boss.
