Just a bit....you might want to shrink them down slightly.
Nice looking gear. Who made your whip?

Thanks The whip is a simple whip ordered in a magazine for horses. It cost me $20 So it's not a very great one.  |

Elodie, Your gear looks great, and I especially like your Wested! The color and relaxed look of is really nice! Your bags are broken in nicely too, which is something I really need to do myself. That HJ has a nice color to it, in those pics as well. I had no idea they even sold knives like that, very cool!  Ken |

Your bags are broken in nicely too, which is something I really need to do myself. If you bag is an original, I've found a run through the washing machine in the cool/gentle cycle will get rid of any storage smell and also soften it up and highlight any edges or creases, giving it a instant lived in look. Don't do this with a WPG replica, it will shrink horribly and unevenly. I've done this to 2 original 1940's bags to no I'll effect. |

KT,
I have a replica bag from Todd's Costumes, so I'm not sure if the washing will help or hurt. Todd has a method listed on his site, for weathering them, but I haven't taken the time to try it yet. Maybe a good hand washing will do the trick too.
Thanks for the help!
Ken

Ken-
I 've got one of Todd's bags as well and used his tutorial on his site with the bleach, and kitchen cleanser. Works fairly well. I didn't do a whole lot on my bag just because I can't stand the smell of bleach. But now it does look a little more used now.

It's cheaper and better quality, it is - as they say, a no brainer! You really can tell the difference when you have one in your hands, the WPG/Todds isn't quite the right material, it's too thin. |

Thanks
My bags are originals.
Haversack Mark VII.
But there are some little differences between them...
They smell bad in the begin but with time it's better.
I never wash them.
