I will be operating a 6 months then fuck it rule......not withstanding urinating myself when drunk.

Edit: Since I've already shown a bit of the sugar canes in this thread, here's how the Tenders fit now (most recently soaked two days ago to get the waist back down)

i haven't seen a fit pic of the SC's, but, having seeing the Tenders, i'd say go with the SCs!

So I've just got back from a motorcycle tour of Central Vietnam.

 

The tour started from Da Nang and finished at Nha Trang. We passed through Hoi An, Kom Tum and Buon Me Thout to get there!

 

Crazy Highland switch backs and hairpin turns, beautiful coastal roads and pristine beaches. I rode a Honda XR 150 which had great torque but not that great top speed. In Vietnam, it turns out that if you'd like to ride a higher CC bike, you'd need to know someone in the government to get that special license.

 

Here's a few photos of the trip and of course the denim. I'll have a video up showing POV shots of the tour in the next couple of weeks hopefully.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hope you enjoy the photos! My denim is in the wash! Have cow crap, sand, oil, dust, dirt, tar, dead butterflies, etc, all over it!

Looks like a lot of fun and good way to break in These Jeans.

I also notice people wash their jeans a lot this time round. will be interesting to see the end result.

 

Not washing your jeans is soooo 2007.  Thankfully it seems those days are gone, and most denimheads have gotten over their soap and water phobia.  

[Maynard Friedman]

Washing your jeans regularly is the new Sufu/'denimhead' consensus whereas not washing them is now so un-Sufu and outdated that conversely it's cool again. Everyone knows that hip works in 8-year cycles!

[setterman]

Oh, so that's why when I was at Imogene + Willie back at the beginning of May to pick out a pair of jeans for my girlfriend I got the whole "don't wash" line.  I just politely nodded my head and said "Uh huh".

Hi guys, another episode of the making of the Ruttloff Garments - Artisan Challenge Jeans. This is part two of drawing and cutting.

 

Mr. Ruttloff uses the rest of the fabric for the lining of the pockets and the yoke.

 

 

The pieces from the Katagami fabric together.

 

Now it comes to the denim...13oz raw from the Kurabo mill.

 

Drawing the cutting pattern. Every jeans made by Mr. Ruttloff gets a custom fit.

 

 

Cutting the denim.

Put some miles on the Oni's this morning walking the Dog

[beautiful_FrEaK]

A little evo update of my Denime

Around 3 weeks of wear (I am rotating them with my Resolue 710 more than I planned )

 

 

 

[Maynard Friedman]

I like those a lot b_F but you're supposed to remove the detachable part of the tab like the old 80s 501s.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I know, I know mate...I just don't wanna rip it off

I still have it on my Resolute, too.

 

[Maynard Friedman]

You're better than that T!

[greathoudini]

Seems like I might enter after all

[Lukenstein]

I recently had my drivers license taken away from me and I now must ride  this bike every day.

This is good for honeycombs but bad for time management!

 

I like stouts.

 

A day of golf

 

Combs happening , not a lot of fading yet.

[saintkeat]

Hey Luke, got a picture of your golf bag strapped to the back of that bicycle? Hahaha

[Lukenstein]

No, but my weekly shopping hanging from the handlebars might provide a laugh.

[Maynard Friedman]

I'm sure he has a little trailer for the golf bag! How bad were you to lose your license Lukenstein? Too much stout?!

[Blue Nemo]

34 days, 2 washes

 

the next wash is planned in 30 days, trying to get more defined whiskers, gave up hope for honeycombs

Hey guys, I have finally entered the contest with my 3sixteen ST-130x jeans. I officially started wearing the jeans on my birthday (5/14), so at least I have a good way to know how long I’ve worn these for. I don’t post very often but I will try to as best as I can to show a better evo of my jeans. But to start off, I have a picture of a birthday gift from some friends with my jeans. And I just went on a 8-mile hike to Poway Lake Park(Mt Woodson Trail) the past weekend but no pics because I forgot my camera.  Enjoy!

After an airline enforced change of competition jeans, here are my TCB 60s keeping it real. I'm not biking across vietnam, cruising the streets of tokyo or road tripping' across Europe. Here's a bit of weekend gardening action! ROCK AND ROLL!

 

Digging the weeds

 

Mowing the lawn

 

 

Fixing the mower

 

 

YEAH!

[Broark]

Just some roping coming through on my OA02XX's:

OK noobedlooser I'll play. Here's my latest toy too. Ebay purchase. Sold as broken, but I fixed it up good as new. 1980s British Army G10. Not fancy, but get's the job done :-) (too keep it slightly on topic, those are my TCBs :-) )

Loving all these updates guys, they're keeping me entertained whilst I nurse a super heavyweight hangover 

[Cold Summer]

Quick update on my FH denim shirt at 34 days of real wear time (posted an update on my jeans earlier this month.)  I'm getting to wear this more than I expected since my programming school is very cold.

Some day-tripping in & around the mile-high city:
