  2. Is anyone familiar with Industry of All Nations? They do a lot of indigo and iron dyed items: https://industryofallnations.com/collections/natural-dyes
  3. Yesterday
  4. The measurements will be different ‘pulled’ - that being the reason I asked, and unless you wear your denims very loose then I believe it’s necessary to acknowledge the full dimensions since that’s how they’ll fit your waist. I’ve posted many times previously on this … I’ve ALWAYS found FW to meet tag size, but clearly there are multiple methods of measurement.
  5. @Duke Mantee Double-checked: I made sure the before and after measurements were taken the same way: waist laid flat and spread out but not pulled while measuring. So the amount of shrinkage would be the same, pulled or not pulled. But the end measurement might be a little bigger when pulled.

    Seconded. It's a great colour for matching dark brown shoes.
  10. Thanks for the info, I have gone through the thread and I have figured some of the out. Just need to find out some info of lot 150. I am going to ask the seller but it might get lost in translation
  11. 162 also quite wide and straight legged with quite large rises - really comfortable - and also based on Levis, their interpretation of a late 30s model If you scroll through the thread, you'll see the fits on Smooth, me and other Sufu'ers which should help
  12. Lot 147 is the widest and based on a Lee model. lot 161 is also wide and based on a Levi’s model. tha other ones I don’t know

    Belts

    This is by far the thickest belt I’ve decorated - J&FJ Baker oak tanned bridle @ nearly 15oz, with ultra heavy solid brass buckle, brass hardware, cobra overlays, onyx and tiger eye gemstones, and antique Japanese coin
  14. Vintage Frank Thomas motorcycle boots.
  15. I measure with the denims pulled tight across the waist
  16. It might be a little less drastic as it seems now lol. When I got them they measured 17 3/4 inch flat. Now, after wearing them around a year and with multiple soaks and 2 machine washes at 60 degrees celcius they measure just under 17 inch. Still, some notable shrinkage? Ofcourse they will stretch out a little but not to 17 3/4 I’m sure. Here’s an image, I can’t get it to show here, don’t know why: https://imgur.com/a/eG5Q52b
  17. I’ve never had (or heard of) a pair of FW denims shrink like that - over 2 inches?! Wow
  18. Hi all I am looking to get a pair of denim but with little info anround and I need some advice on the the different fits. I have seen some of the fits and they are a little too wide for my liking. How would you describe Lot 147, 150, 161 and 162? thanks in advance
  19. @frank I find them TTS as well. I own both ‘47 and ‘51 models and both are pretty TTS. However, my 36x32 ‘51 shrunk a little further after two machine washes on 60 degrees celcius. They measure a little under 34 inch now, will probably stretch to 34 or a little over with wearing. When I got these they measured just under 36 inch. Inseam is now around 31 inch.
  20. every time I wear this shirt I tell myself I need to wear it more. Haha
  21. feels weird with no denim…. Freewheelers stifel shirt Runabout chinos Nicks boots
  22. I found them TTS. They came in a little snug but stretched out and broke in nicely. I find FW is pretty good w reliable sizing - not that getting measurements isn’t a good idea but I trust the tag with them more than most.
  23. How's the sizing on the '51 jeans? I know the measurements on Speedway are a bit funky and wasn't sure if I should go TTS with them or not.
