After 4 hours of searching, I found the logger buckle that Wolverine wears in Origins. Not the correct stone, and minor differences in the crown, but this is the buckle!

A quick note for anyone with an X-1 purchased from Heron, do NOT remove the stripe on the left arm. I finally caved in and decided to remove mine tonight and I removed a small bit of the thread on one side, about half an inch or so and I noticed that you cant remove the whole thing. The sleeves aren't put together the same way as Vansons. They aren't a solid sleeve with the stripe then layered on top of that, they're pieced together. After I took out the bit of thread, just out of curiosity I took peek behind the stripes and you can see right through to the liner.

Just figured I'd let you guys know in case someone was planning on taking the stripe off. It would suck to take out all of the thread and then find out after, I'm just lucky I caught it before I went too far. I'll take a picture later tonight to show what I mean.

EDIT:Here's a picture.

Well that's really el cheapo :/. Didn't think that it'd be a sectioned off sleeve.

Yeah I didn't think it would be either. It's not a huge deal though, I guess I just wont be removing the arm stripe lol. But hey, if I ever decide to make it into a leather t-shirt, it'll be easy haha

I am kind of curious as to what the reasoning was behind this decision because to me it just seems like a terrible design flaw. I mean what if it had caught on something? it would've torn the entire arm off lol.

Not even wested did that when I had there XO at one point.

I'll be contacting Jorge from Heron to find out the details behind this HUGE pattern flaw is. Standby...

After way too long a time, I am taking pre-orders for the dog tags. Please spread the word. http://www.therpf.com/f13/pre-sale-wolverine-dog-tags-x-men-style-138096/

Man been a long while since I've visited this thread. Tons of great info has been added!!!

I've been trying to read through the pages and even did a few searches to find Wolverine's boots. From what I'm finding, it looks like they have not been identified but I know someone mentioned them possibly being Frye Jayden Chelsea's.

Is this the closest lead currently on these? And I'm assuming they are brown, not black since it would clash with the jacket, correct? Although they do appear to be black in many shots to me at least?

Any info would be great! Thanks again guys

The X1 boots were 100% black gloss. Most likely due to the toe and heel shape/height (even captured the # of nails in the heel: 7), they are a type of Roper, but no actual match for maker has been found. These are dime a dozen for sale on the internet, so this is by far the easiest find.

The heel of his boot

Typical Roper boot

The X2 boots are snip toe harness in brown with a 1" low heel. No matches yet, but my research on a close enough was your comment on the Jayden Chelsea's. Of which I am wearing right now actually. :love

Mine

The X3 boot is a type of Calvary slip-on boot. These were huge in the 70's made famous by Frye. These are also dime a dozen but not cheap. You can find knock-off's for less though.

XO boots, unconfirmed, but seem to be another brown low profile boot with a pointed toe. Might as well be the same boot as X2, if you ask me.

I do not have a good feeling about the dog tags. At this point, I only have two pre-sold.

 

[BoozeBeGood]

Thanks so much for the info on the boots! thumbsup

 

[comonbub]

The boots in XO I think are Engineer type. They have a buckle on the side of the boot in a lot of scenes.

I plan on ordering 1 or 2, but I have not talked to the wife to let her know yet.

Could it be possible to see some pics of the Logan's XO jacket from Dan, please ? I asked him directly by email but he must be busy and didn't answered.....I would like to see the jacket from all its sides, on Logan's Closet website you only see it from face !!

Thanks.

You seemed to have forgotten that photos prove more than words do.
