They're just old with no closure like socks basically. The leather I made them out of is a bit stretchy but it's kind of stretched out more than I want. Just wanting to make a different style.

I'm debating on leather weight for the soles I think the deer skin I have would be most comfortable since I'll mainly just be wearing them on grass but obviously won't be as durable as m...

Thanks for the welcome though!

I love it thanks for the information Greg!

While we are on the subject of pipes I was looking for period ways to light a pipe. I have a Hudson Bay Tobacco Tin like the one seen below but haven't really tried the lens yet. Other than that i could think of a candle wick or just a stick caught on fire. Any other ideas? dfb304edf93c5be0092c44c49...

I definitely agree Manveruon, Mine is sort of a practice for public events if you will. I have a distaste for cigarettes but some aromatic pipe tobacco is decently enjoyable just not an everyday thing. I'm more into the creation than the practice.

My favorite tobacco so far is just some simple Sir Walter Raleigh Aromatic from a drug store it's good stuff! 23897535_10214666737482917_882044110_n.jpg 23846189_10214666731842776_163303...
