^ True workwear! I love how that shirt is coming along.

[bradl]

Yeah, I'm really loving it. But the 14oz is going to be way to heavy come a few more weeks.

This page is one of the best I can recall on sufu (sorry for ruining it now).

So much winning on this page, great work Bradl and Andrey!

[garden gnomes in space]

dang, I see this shit and have to rethink my SDA approach.  I love my 101's, but the waist shrinks down just a bit too much for comfort.  I stretch it out, but it only has so much to give.  

[BrownMetallic]

^Did u size down?

Are they fairly new?

[joekix]

hey bradl, just ordered that shirt on rakuten 'cause of you

[garden gnomes in space]

^Did u size down?

Are they fairly new?

no, sized normally.  Relatively new.  I think I ordered from and-japan like 7 months ago-ish.  Have not really put them through too much wear.  The measurements are just perfect except for the waist.  

[bradl]

My x's-33 took a while to get the waist to finally stretch. Honestly like a month, at least.

SDA X-31 black pigs

 

 

 

 

 

these have a big leg opening which i'm not quite used to, but i'm liking them a lot!

[bradl]

Awesome, just stumbled across some evos of these, and really started to like them. More of an "over dyed" jean than a straight black.

 

Hem might do a good bit in helping the leg opening.

Here's a pic of the pair I got used from eBay a while ago...

The over dyed black is mostly gone and the 21oz blue remains showing first fading.

SDA 101 - bought these in 2010 and have worn them on and off for 2.5 years. approx 5-6 washes.

very nice mate

003's. My first pair or Japanese denims.

Starting to fall to pieces now. Smoothest, softest jeans I own

[bradl]

Yuchi went out of his way to get this sent form SDA, so I am super fucking happy. Can't believe the difference from M to L. Also stepping out of my comfort zone from usual grey/black/blue and loving this colour.

Shirt look good, but the rep was mainly for the beard

[Maynard Friedman]

I've just been looking at my raw 001s that have been sitting unworn in my wardrobe since late 2010 (I think). They were going to be my first pair of left hand twill jeans but unfortunately (for them) my new Ande Whall SR7 Buffalos jumped the queue and have attached themselves firmly to my legs. I'd love to rotate both of these pairs together but then I'd have to buy another pair of lefties for 'down the line'.

Might have to post some 001 snaps soon though.

[HoustonChris]

Picked up a few tee shirts recently, figured I'd add them in here to go with all the lovely denim.  I really like SDA tees a lot.  I wish they were sized slightly bigger, but perhaps that's a good thing, as I have far too many tees already.  Anyway, the first is a collab with a store where I've found several good things lately- Heath Industrial.

 

 

Next up is the 35th anniversary tee, which is very different from their usual offerings.  First off, it's a tube body and they normally do side seamed tees; second, the sizing is closer to that of their long sleeve tees, which tend to run larger (better for me); and third, it's got flatlock stitched seams, which are very nice and comfortable.

 

 

 

And last up, one of their chainstitch embroidered tees.  I just love that they aren't silkscreened, like most tees.  The embroidering is just unique and cool.

 

 

Sorry the pics are so crappy, but we've had rain for the last several days, making good natural light photos hard to come by.  Nonetheless, any pictures are better than nothing, right?

Oh, awesome! Didn't even think to look there.

x-posting Lendo from the general Evo thread, so rep him there.

Studio D'Artisan D1336, these are LHT

Bought these from the esteemed Beatle a few years ago, don't remember how long exactly. They get thrown in the wash every couple of weeks.

 

[Bobbo]

Some SD-101 love:

Not much to show but I like the stubborness and we always need more SDA-stuff up here! They are a bit darker than the pictures show, courtesy of the flash. Worn for ~ 4 months by now.

 

 

 

 

 

[volvo240thebest]

^ nice!

[Chubacca]

Can anyone care to comment how to size their tshirts? They seem really really fitted.  

 

I'm usually a 22.5 - 23 inches chest for dress shirts and SDA only has a Large in the tshirt I want.  Their chest measures out to 19 inches......Just by writing this, going on Large sounds like a high risk....

Awesome, I was looking at the same pair. What size are you? and how are they fitting?

[garden gnomes in space]

nice.  I cant make my 33 101's work.  The waist is just a tad too tight.  Since the 101's shrink in the waist so much, have you foud the waist to be particularly tough to stretch back out to tag size?

[Maynard Friedman]

The waist on my size 32 101s stretches back to about 33.5" (raw measurement) with wear after a wash but not easily - it takes a week or so and I only ever wash at 30C.

EDIT: Just measured my 101s and the waist is 33" after a good month of wear, so not as stretchy as I thought and probably not back to the raw measurement but they feel comfortable and just right. I also tend to wear them without a belt for the first few days after a wash to aid with the whole process. All things even, it seems like you should be able to get yours to 34".

maybe i just need to nut up, but I cant get my tagged 33's to get past 32.  I have worn then longer than a week and it still is stubborn as hell.
