I’ve been waiting for an opportunity to use this clip.

Update: if you’ve been following, here’s the new wallet we’re launching tomorrow.
It’s a new product for us, and our first-ever collab with another brand - Lost Dutchman.
They’re a small leather goods company here in Arizona.
They took their best selling wallet, the Big Finn, gave it a western shirt flap (inspired by our western shirt), and created: The Major Finn.
These are handmade in Arizona. We’ve got 50 in stock. They’re awesome. Will be live on our website at 9am tomorrow.
We’re doing our first collab this week. Launching a wallet, with a company called Lost Dutchman (they hand make leather goods here in Arizona), at 12pm Friday. It looks something like this.
But much better.
Behold
Thank you!
My grandpa wearing the first western shirt I made in 2018.
The fit was horrible for most men, but he loved it.
Good week. Worked hard. Made progress.
Ended with some rain and this dude hitting a smoke outside our shop.

Last one and I'll stop spamming your post. Etsy shop in Montana claiming all hand made and they sell a lot of different colored pearl snaps. Maybe worth contacting

Not spamming at all! Thanks I’ll check these guys out.
Many of the Etsy sellers I’ve found still source from China, but you never know.

How the hell are pearl snaps made & 2. Where the hell do they make these things? It can't even fins the machines for this but I did find a nice website explaining costs of business and steps to open a plant in Bangladesh.
Haha that sounds like a start!! I’m glad we sent you down a tunnel (we need more people doing that haha). From what I’ve seen, found, heard - the entire industry is in Hong Kong. Many American button companies opened their own factories there. And then many wholesalers here, source from there. Not sure how that became the spot. And maybe I’m missing something. But that’s what I’ve found.
They’re made through some sort of stamping process. I don’t know what that means yet. But that’s a word I’ve heard thrown around..
The Bones of J.R. Jones. One of my favorite artists. In one of my shirts. These moments are rare, but always awesome.
If anyone can figure out how to make pearl snaps in America, we will buy them
Thanks, I appreciate it. And agree.
One time Post Malone wore one of my shirts on stage. It was unexpected, not planned, he didn’t tag us or anything. His stylist just found the brand through IG (I think), bought him shirts, and he liked them - and wore them.
It didn’t move the needle in terms of sales, but that was okay - I didn’t need that. Being a huge music fan, seeing an artist at this level choose to wear a west major shirt? Priceless.
Okay thanks! I’ll follow up with you about this 😄
Is it possible to set up with Shopify?
That would be awesome
