Second hand shirt / belafonte / doek

I have no personal experience with them, but Williamsburg Garment Company also stocks a few of their items. https://williamsburggarment.com/tcb-jeans-two-cats-brand/

If we're talking about TCB- Withered Fig and Franklin and Poe still stock them, I believe. Edit: Franklin and Poe does not, unsure why I thought they did 😅

STUDIO D'ARTISAN 45TH ANNIVERSARY LIMITED EDITION JEANS We have two very special limited edition jeans this week for Studio D'Artisan's 45th anniversary. First we have the TRIPLE SELVEDGE jeans, made in limited numbers for their 45th anniversary. They’ve modified their vintage denim looms to produce an unusually narrow fabric, measuring only 20cm to 38cm wide as opposed to the normal 80cm width of selvedge denim. This enables them to make a jean with three selvedge IDs running down the inside of each leg; triple the selvedge to triple your pleasure. To produce this jean they also reproduced the original yarn used to produce the first SDA jean ever made forty-five years ago, the “D-01”. These are produced in SDA’s classic straight leg fit and are exclusive to Self Edge. Truly a one of a kind jean. We also have the HINODE AWA NATURAL INDIGO jeans, also a limited model made for their anniversary collection. These are produced of a 15oz slub yarn cotton with a natural indigo warp and akane vegetable dyed weft. The natural indigo warp yarns were dipped 30 times with long oxidation periods, an anomaly for natural indigo as normally natural indigo yarns aren’t dipped in the dye bath for this long of a period with this made dips. This technique mixed with the akane vegetable dyed weft yarns creates one truly unique jean. These are produced in SDA’s classic straight leg fit.

I'm not familiar. Interesting. The denim looks great. Plus, love the idea of picking something up from such a small brand/absolute artisan. So you're saying there are two options? One: semi-custom (I can send over some measurements to alter his existing pattern). Two: he offers a western cut OTR? Is the best insta handle to ask him if he's taking orders this one? https://www.instagram.com/librapondus/?locale=undefined&hl=am-et @Broark roger that. I'll drop him a line to confirm and report back. Huge thank you to everyone for the suggestions. I'll update with my next moves.

I am searching myself for equal restraint... The shipping cost is reasonable and understandable but I'll probably make fewer transactions and be less likely to pick up smaller items like shirts. That's probably for the best, for me and maybe for them as well. They are in an interesting place with international sales now though. AFAIK they no longer have any retailers in North America. This didn't matter much before, because the direct to consumer prices were so good and the shipping was fast and free. That equation has changed a bit over the last couple of years and it feels like they are turning more towards their domestic market. I hope they will have a relationship with a US stockist eventually like what they do with Second Sunrise, but maybe that's not their interest.

Ahh brilliant thank you!

Here you go

Yeah, as mentioned above pretty small! There's also quite a variance between the models. I have a classic blue chambray and an olive hbt work shirt, both bought recently, within a couple months of each other and both in size 16-16.5...sizing below:

@malik look at the Left Field Atlas fit. It’s meant for lifters so has a pretty close waist/thigh ratio to what you’re after.

The linesheets are available on their Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cushman_official/

Interested in those leather sneakers whenever they're released. Ever since Instagram changed the way you can sort hashtags it's been a bit more difficult for me to keep track of their releases.

I really like Cushman too! Could someone please provide a link to the new FW catalogue? The duck jackets shared above are lovely!

It’s all here except for the waxed jacket and the corduroy jacket, for some reason they didn’t get a detailed description.

Glad you got that sorted! Glad to hear also about your good experience with FC customer service, I had a great experience too. And regards comfort straight from the off, I've yet to experience quite the same in any other brand's fabric - I think there's a fairly large consensus here on that! They're a joy to wear!

^^ Tender front rise runs less than 13 inch... but if you can comprise on that, the thigh on the 132 in size 3 is 14 inch

@malik not much to add to the above... this is a bit of a challenge eh... the thigh size for the waist as well as inseam sometimes Yamane denim is worth double-checking e.g. the Labor#7001 model (looks great)... but I think inseam will be too short Canes M41101 a 1930s Leepro in W36 (which washes to a W34) has 13 inch front rise and 14.5 inch thighs. Looks a good match - the issue is you'd need a lot of luck finding them on Yahoo auctions I checked Freewheelers 1937 - the thigh measured at crotch is 13.5 inch so little short. Ditto the Sugar Canes 1943 collectibles. Belafonte worth a check too - hi-back trousers won't work due to inseam but they may have other models - and they look good worn big which may help Good luck and keep us posted!

@malik tender stores will be back open fairly soon if you can wait a few weeks. Or, you may be able to find 132/136 from other retailers though I would double check that the rise would work for you. I’d second looking at Black Sign and Dawson, or just embrace the process or At Last. I do think some options are out there.

I also just noticed this when considering buying a pair of the new S40's. I didn't buy them, in the end, though not down to the shipping cost (which is still very very reasonable, for the UK at least - £17 / $22), more that I am aiming for monk-like restraint on jeans buying until my pizza jeans land (and then a further 18 months of no more jeans of course!!!)

@AlientoyWorkmachine I would just add another vote for the Lake District (our favourite weekend away destination - more so outside of typical holiday seasons) and also Yorkshire Dales (my stomping ground) - lovely easier walks a plenty.

Thanks guys for spurring me on, I'm feeling a real draw back towards Ivy style as Autumn comes flying in... I went with one Kamakura BD from All Blues (so nice to shop somewhere good, in person) and ventured into the realms of made in USA vintage and deadstock Brooks Brothers on Ebay - quite the can of worms I've opened for myself there! 😬 Picked up a BD Brooks Brothers flannel with a flap pocket (actually looks as though it's the model Kamakura based their new combed twill popovers on!) and currently bidding on a number of (very well priced) old Brooks Brothers MiUSA bits and pieces.

@malik I was reading along thinking hmm yep sounds familiar, got to be 0105's for this guy, then read you'd tried them, sorry. FWIW I know you've noted At Last there, and the difficulty getting hold of them - but you're very unlikely to have upper leg volume issues with them. Only pair I have where I can go to my actual waist size (32) and have more than enough room for my rear and thighs. DC4 in Berlin have quite a bit of their stock - and you can also go the old mysterious email them direct route. Best of luck finding something that fits properly though! I (and lots of us here) know it isn't always easy!!

I feel like I've always had this issue, usually solved by shift + return. It's kind of muscle memory for me by this point. @malik the LB Jeans that b_F recommended are a good option, however I don't think he's accepting new orders at the moment. The waist might end up being a little large, but most of the Freewheelers 601xx variants should work for you as well, they're pretty generous in the thighs / top block.

Does anyone know why the formatting inserts full line spacing when I hit enter/return for a new paragraph? this for example… I can’t place the text directly under the prior paragraphs without the gap. edit: this is on my iPhone on Chrome
