Thanks for the heads up Joe. Being a Nokona collector, I can't wait to see it. I saw the one on Made in America with Cliff Claven awhile back. Good stuff.

Enjoyed watching this with Beckett this morning - he was fascinated the whole time. He's only 2.5 months old but he's already enjoying glove related shows. :)

Couple of things:
1) The person that was narrating was referring to the web as the pocket - this was driving me insane. I've always though the pocket was the pocket area - not the web!

2) They kept showing a spray bottle with leather softener - Joe, do you think you can find out what this is for us? Thanks.

I just watched it tonight. I recorded it in the middle of the night when I happened across it last night right in the middle. It was cool. I loved the way they did the welting and loved seeing the G33 and Trapper at the beginning. Brett, I too was wondering what that spray softener was.
