Gunner Gatlin, SASS 10274L Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Received mine yesterday - un-flippin'-beleivable!! Works of art indeed. Can't beleive they closed their doors, but they might have some inventory in stock left to sell. Thanks Wimpy pard - so very much. GG ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillDearborn Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 What??!?!? They were on my short list of costuming items that I NEED this Spring! I've been drooling over their stuff off and on all Winter! I just tried their site, and it's already down. Does anyone know how to get in touch, to try to buy anything they have left?

Grizzly Dave Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I waited too long to put a crowbar in my wallet, I did get a pair of fairly plain spurs, but prolly would have opted for fancier if'n I could have. But at least I have a pair on the way. Wimpy put pics of what was left on Facebook, not sure if anything is left or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillDearborn Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Thanks for the helpful (and darn near IMMEDIATE) response Grizzly! I just checked them out on Facebook, and put in a request to Wimpy. Theirs looked like some of the most beautiful hand-crafted items I've seen since I joined a year or so ago. They seem like true craftsmen, and even their e-business was impressive in its attention to detail. I hope we can work something out, and I don't miss out!

Utah Bob #35998 Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Collector's items now i reckon. Wish I could have got a pair years ago, but other things always seemed to deplete my cash for toys fund. If ya have a pair, you should trearure them for years to come.

Fillmore Coffins, SASS #7884 Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I first met Wimpy and Whiney as last year's Western Regional. We hit it off right away. Great guys. Beautiful product. They will be missed, the spurs that is. The brothers have a standing invitation to come back anytime. Fillmore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bull Skinner Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Got my order in. It'll be 2nd pair. They are of the finest craftmanship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvey Mushman Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Just got my order in yesterday. Went for the ones I could not afford before - nor now, but they will be very scarce from here on out....... We only live once, and can't take it with us. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it!

Checotah Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Harvey, glad you and Wimpy were able to make contact. Several of us here in Suthryn Orygun have Lindholm spurs (couple pair meself), and have nothing but the highest regards for Wimpy and Whiney. We feel so special when they make it one of our shoots, as either participants or spectators. Those boys are really special, and so are their spurs. Wouldn't surprise me if they became as popular as Crockett spurs.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bama Red Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I just looked at their remaining stock on Facebook. Seems all they have left are the plain style spurs, no engraving, no appliqués, no jingle bobs. Dang! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calico Mary Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 In looking at that pic, those are very similar to the ones Buick has, he won em' at HOW one year (actually I won em', but slipped him the winning ticket as soon as they called the number, it made a great early birthday present). We're definitely gonna take good care of them now!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checotah, I owe you thanks for putting me in touch with them (good folks!), and I think I may have gotten the last pair they had with jingle bobs! I have a pair of Crocketts, and I will treasure these at least as much, if not more! Thanks, Harvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillDearborn Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 I tried to message Wimpy on Facebook, to buy one of his sets, but I haven't heard back from him.

Maybe I'll get Aspen Filly to add some bling to them with engraving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
