Hip Flask — III

Description

Ten ounces, curved across the back to sit flat against a hip, wrapped in oxblood latigo and closed with a lace running the length of the seam instead of a stitch line. Latigo is oil-tanned, so it is supple from the first day and takes rain without going stiff. The stainless body measures 5.8 by 4 by 1 inches, and the threaded cap turns on a captive arm like the smaller two. A small brass funnel ships in the box and stows under the lace. Rinse it after use and stand it upside down overnight to dry. Wipe the latigo with a dry cloth. It goes dark and glossy where a palm sits and stays matte everywhere else.
