“GOOD LUCK XXX” KEY RING + “MIDDLE FINGER” KEY ...

... sounds strange. But it would be a perfect combination. Both parts are available at “COOL MATERIAL”. Made out of brass designed by Good Worth. “Throw out all the boring split key rings you've spent the better part of your lifetime collecting in favor of the Good Luck Key Ring from Good Worth” ... oh yes! “Then there's the closed horseshoe shape that actually works better than the traditional split ring when you're attaching things like car remotes and carabiners. These are both reason enough to pick up a few. That said, our favorite feature has to be the "Good Luck Motherf**ker" engraving on side of the ring. It's small enough that almost no one will notice it unless you point it out, but you'll get a nice little positive affirmation every time you grab your keys.” A Must-Have Life Time Gear! You'll find much more great stuff at “Cool Material” – for sure no mainstream ... I love this little things! LTG PROOFED! © Photos: Cool Material

RINOUMA MADE IN JAPAN #03 | BAGS & BELTS

The last month I presented some stuff from RINOUMA MADE IN JAPAN available @ B74, Frankfurt. Different wallets, brass hooks, leather and brass card cases –  today I will show you the classic RINOUMA bags and a simple but so beautiful belt. The “CITY BAGS” are from RINOUMAS flagship leather combination line named RNBL featuring 20oz. paraffin coating water-resistant canvas, vegetable tanned leather, 2.0 mm-thick cotton tape, #10 YKK Japanese metal zipper with golden brass color, and premium brass metal parts – all materials 100% Japanese. The “CITY BAG” is available with strap and without in 3 different sizes. The leather RINOUMA uses for bags and this beautiful belts is a 4 mm thick grade steer hide which is tanned in one of the highest quality Japanese tanneries since 1937. The Japanese Craftsmen need 20 steps making this leather. It is a very old saddle leather making process with a lot of hand made processes. At first the leather is put to a light tanning pit, than to a little deeper, and so on. It takes about 3 months for a real deep tanning – without any chrome additions. So the leather soaks the maximum of tannin and the density of this gets very deep. Another effect is that the weight gets much heavier compared to normal leather.
