Redtail Hardgoods: Timeless with A Twist

Let us introduce to you Redtail Hardgoods – a brand inspired by American grit.

Redtail Hardgoods creates handcrafted products straight out of Texas – and the brand dedicates itself to making sure these items are built to last.

Keith Dugger, the company’s founder and CEO, grew up in Texas. The leader of the small company had always been a collector of old items – but never knew exactly what attracted him to them.

Dugger’s obsession with legacy pieces, or items that stood the test of time, helped inspire the company he now runs – featuring durable, timeless goods with a modern twist. For instance, Redtail Hardgoods creates handsome handcrafted belts that are completely customizable.

Customers can choose the color of the rawhide, the shape and metal of the buckle, even brass, copper, or steel rivets. The materials used are all top-notch and will stand the test of time.

One of our favorite, quirkier items mixes convenience with that true American grit we were talking about earlier.

Mason Jars are iconic when it comes to American-made products. Whether you’re drinking lemonade, iced tea, or moonshine out of ‘em – one thing’s for sure – you’re going to enjoy it more with The Mug Holster.

The body of the product is made from vegetable tanned leather and branded with the Redtail logo. The leather will darken with age and use, and will develop a patina, making the product unique only to you. Apparently, leather will not only protect your hands from hot drinks, but will also act as a great insulator. Who knew?

The handle of the Mug Holster is also crafted from reclaimed horseshoe.

Check out some of the other unique products over at Redtail Hardgood’s official website.

Hugh Jackman on playing Wolverine again: ‘It literally doesn’t matter how I answer this’

Hugh Jackman isn't sure whether he'll be back as Wolverine

Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds in Deadpool & Wolverine.

Deadpool & Wolverine's arrival in theaters is imminent, and with it, the return of Hugh Jackman's Logan. Jackman has been playing some version of Wolverine since all the way back in 2000. In 2017, it seemed like he had hung up his claws for good with the critically acclaimed Logan, which sees the character meet what seems to be a permanent end.

Seven years later, though, he was drawn right back into the fray. In a recent interview with Collider, Jackman was asked whether he would be playing Wolverine again, and he seemed to understand that fans could no longer take him at his word.

Steven Spielberg is to blame for the lack of kissing in ‘Twisters’

Steven Spielberg wanted to keep things professional for the Twisters leads

The cast of Twisters.

Fans of disaster movies are relishing in the news that Twisters made more than $80 million in its opening weekend. The decades-later sequel to Twister had an opening weekend that wildly exceeded expectations, and left many wondering whether we may eventually get another sequel.

For all of the movie's critical and commercial success, though, some notice that this disaster romance was lacking something that the first Twister was sure to include. Namely, the movie ends without Glen Powell's Tyler and Daisy Edgar Jones's Kate sealing their new relationship with a kiss. Some people naturally wondered why there was no kiss in the film, and it turns out that legendary director Steve Spielberg is the one to blame.
