I was asked to create a new belt that would be wearable for my client since the OG belt he thrifted online wasn’t the right size for him. He wanted to re-use the hardware which was gorgeous btw. I told him the OG belt looked super nice and I was afraid I might have to destroy it to be able to get the hardwares. Luckily, when I got my hands on it and inspected it before the first cut, I saw that I could easily remove all hardwares safely. Here’s the final look from vintage brown belt to solid clean black belt. Swipe right to see the beautiful details of the hardware and the original belt. #theno60 #leather #belt #leatherbelt #handmade #hardware #navajo #vintage #thrift #custommade #leathergoods https://www.instagram.com/p/Ce0GwJgJlPM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Issa Dress-down Saturday kinda weekend. Had to run some errands and meet up with some friends of mine. The idea for this look: What would BTS RM wear with the new Artist Made by BTS Joggers? We have similar style imo because we both love Japanese menswear, styling and type of clothes. And yes, he’s my bias ✨😌 #theno60 #styling #heritageweekend #wabash #denim #vest #shoeslikepottery #goldhand #maden #llbean #totebag #bts #rm #joggers #hybeentertainment (at Manila, Philippines) https://www.instagram.com/p/CbT5_IrpHBG/?utm_medium=tumblr

Day 6 of wearing my jeans without wash. Yes, tee, belt and jeans are from @uniqlophofficial ✨ in love with their new Indigo line. Yes, I am aware that the plants behind me are dead im so sorry plants 🙏 😭🍃 PS. The belt has aged and been with me for around 3 years or so I would like to assume. ✨ #theno60 #selvedge #selvedgedenim #jeans #denimheads #indigo (at Quezon City, Philippines) https://www.instagram.com/p/CauIy_uviYs/?utm_medium=tumblr

Here’s the sling bag I made a year (or two?) ago. It was definitely a first for me and it was a first for me to use new kinds of material, from the easy-lock clasps to the nylon straps. The whole process was worth it. ✨ #theno60 #sling #bag #leather #handmade #handcrafted #custom #custommade #localph #cuero #craftsman #craft https://www.instagram.com/p/CaGsebLPbUs/?utm_medium=tumblr

It turns out i love driving. So whenever i get the chance to, I go out for random drives (no matter how near it is to my house) to keep me sane. Yes, sometimes I personally deliver your packages to areas that are near me whenever I can. 😌🙏 #theno60 #smallbusiness #smallbusinessph #leather #handcrafted #handmade #leatherbag (at Quezon City, Philippines) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZx528-vLWS/?utm_medium=tumblr

This was the last project of 2021. With a total of 6 slots for all your cash and cards. Perfect wallet that sits right in your palm too imo. I’d say this was the perfect year-ender. With that said, how has your 2022 been going so far? #theno60 #leatherwallet #wallet #custom #handmade #handcrafted #craft #craftsman #leather #leathergoods (at Quezon City, Philippines) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZVxawMPlhw/?utm_medium=tumblr

Putting the last bit of polishing made the whole wallet look and feel smooth af. Anyway, here are some detail shots of the wallet. #theno60 #bikerwallet #wallet #leather #leatherwallet #leathergoods #edc #essentials #craft #craftsman #handmade #handstitched #vegtanleather (at Quezon City, Philippines) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZTVk3oPcCp/?utm_medium=tumblr

My first ever biker wallet. It’s a custom collaboration with none other than @bryanchaiseng Not only was this my first biker wallet but this was also my first time using veg tan leather too. You can probably say this one’s a pretty special project and one for the books. Initially just had to custom the wallet but thought that these type of wallets usually have the leather chain going on. I decided to add onto the braided leather strap for that extra kick 💥 Fun fact: the braided strap was initially a prototype work with @gantsilyo_ but saw that it matched really well with the project. I just had to pair it up with the wallet so I gave it as an extra ✨ #theno60 #bikerwallet #bike #leather #leatherwallet #wallet #custom #handmade #handcrafted #craft #craftsman (at Quezon City, Philippines) https://www.instagram.com/thenumber60/p/CZI7arnvM8J/?utm_medium=tumblr

I enjoyed wearing overalls for the first time in a long time. I still remember my fave childhood overalls were denim and I would wear it wherever and whenever. Wore it so much to the point my mom gave it away without telling me. I cried lol. Anyway, who knew at the age of 30, I’d still be able to wear them again... but this time as my uniform. #theno60 #uniform #workwear #leather #selvedge #hickory #stripes #heritagestyle (at Quezon City, Philippines) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYtdqbWv-O2/?utm_medium=tumblr

A lot has happened lately and this post is a much needed reminder that we can do better and be better. #tumindig I’ve been out of my drawing skills lately so I decided to tap my friend collaborator @pattpiha to help me with this one. Thank you as always, Patt. As they say, better late than never ika nga. Register to vote. Abante babae. The future is bright for us.

Here’s a close up look of the custom fob and this was a shot I took testing it out with random brass fobs in the studio. Client decided on getting a bigger brass fob than the shown. Anyway, if you want some of your custom leather ideas to be made real, send us a dm and let’s see how we can work on with it. #theno60 #leather #keyfob #keyring #custom #handmade #handcrafted #craftsman #craft #leatherburning #art #design #illustration (at Quezon City, Philippines) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRMDhkPDsva/?utm_medium=tumblr

From discussions > quick sketch > execution @ukaygod and I sort of had the same idea on how we wanted the eye to look. So after the chat, it was pretty easy! The hard part was the execution of leather burning. So I tested it first on a personal work (which I plan to share some time soon too!). I had to study how high the heat should be and what would be the perfect pressure to make it work. I had to also get used to the pacing of how fast I should move the soldering iron. Swipe right to the third slide to see that I freehanded the eye onto the fob with the silver pen. It was fun but really nerve-racking! Luckily, I used to draw way back ~ 🤙✨ #theno60 #leather #leatherburning #handcrafted #custommade #custom #keyfob #illustration #art #process #bts #drawing #leathercraft #craftsman (at Quezon City, Philippines) https://www.instagram.com/p/CREd8l1D0PC/?utm_medium=tumblr

This was my desk situation back in April. I got a very special custom request from @ukaygod and he asked me to create a leather key fob for him that had a special illustration on it. To stamp something so unique would be too costly for just one keyfob so I decided to give leather burning a go. We had back and forth discussions about the design and the keyfob on my vintage LL Bean bag was the final result! I had fun creating this and thank you @ukaygod for the trust 🙏 🥲 #theno60 #leather #leatherburning #art #illustration #keyfob #custom #handmade #handcraftedph #craftsman #artisanmade (at Quezon City, Philippines) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRCGTFGDrwy/?utm_medium=tumblr

Here’s a clip of ~the first try~ @_kevincognito wearing the zulu straps I crafted for him. We actually just discarded the old straps he had since it was badly torn up. He told me to re-use the hardware since the hardware was quality✨ Can you tell I was anxious?
