  1. Past hour
  2. @tooth I went with my usual FW size, I believe the cut is somewhat similar to the '37s so I'm expecting them to be a little loose up top. Will post measurements once they arrive.
  3. Yes l did go with my typical size. Hoosier very kindly hand measured (Inc. pics) sizes 32 and 33, as l'd heard the same info as you as wanted to be as sure as l could about nailing the correct size. Every since l fell in love with FW denim l've always been a 33. Owned and sold a pair of FW47'S because l didn't ask for advice beforehand (a sz 34) and gave my sz 32 FW47'S to my son after vanity sizing led to the pockets being too small to be properly functional. My old, now sold 51's were a 33 and always fit perfectly, albeit a little low in the front rise for my tastes it turned out.
  4. @Broark @Dr_Heech did you both go with your typical FW size for the 1942 jeans? I wear a 32” in FW, but the charts I’ve seen have the 1942 running a bit large? Thanks in advance!
  5. Today
  6. @coleslawyum long time no see! I really hope that in 5 years not much has changed at all 😆
  7. @beautiful_FrEaK Well damn, every time I check in Sufu after a few years, your collection has morphed from Samurai to mostly Denime. I'll be interested to see your collection in another 5 years. I still have most of my collection, but sold about 30% of it.

  9. Would love to see some fit pics of the lovely 136 if anyone has any? Thank you in advance : ]Would love to see some fit pics of the lovely 136 if anyone has any? Thank you in advance : ]
  10. yes, Bronson USN t shirts have the holes on both sides. The holes are used for hanging them on threads to try.
  11. Just measured with the waist pulled: 17 1/4 inch. I’m assuming the one wash measurements were indeed 18 inch with the waist pulled so in that case the waist shrunk 3/4 inch (1,5 total). Let’s say it will stretch out with wearing, so I’m left with 1 inch shrinkage as opposed to when I got them.
  12. Only just read back and seen this. I've only owned a couple of pairs of FW denims (Also a pair of Bootleggers which had similar rivets) and l didn't find them a problem, however this time as l'm ordering both jeans and jacket with bucklebacks, l decided to have all the rivets processed just to be on the safe side. I don't want to be ripping up friends' couches when on a visit. I only said yes to the rivet process because l was asked, although l left the buckle unprocessed as l didn't think it would be a problem. I can hear the groans all the way from Arbroath

  14. My recent trip to Japan yielded an obscene amount of jeans, at least enough to weather a 15-year storm, so I figured I needed to repurpose some pairs for summer so that I could still wear most of them, giving them the attention they deserve. I have always wanted a pair of Momo's, so I decided to cuff a wide-leg pair (originally 21" outseam but now running about 18" or so with cuff). I stitched them up, and after Boncoura's post, I'm planning on washing these pretty regularly to achieve similar results (more likely two years or several to achieve the same result).
  15. I bought both pairs of Imperial 26 from Self Edge because I wasn't sure which direction I wanted to take for the Indigo Invitational. I settled with the ST. So, I decided to repurpose the 47 pair into shorts. I went with a 20" outseam and stitched up the seams myself. I did this previously with a pair of Imperials from the beginning, and was pretty happy with the results. I wear jeans more often than not so the process is slow with shorts but gets me psyched to wear shorts again, as opposed to wearing pre-distressed pairs. Unfortunately, I grew out of the ones below...

    What do you fine people know about the John Gluckow brand? Is the quality on par with the rest of Warehouse?
  17. Is anyone familiar with Industry of All Nations? They do a lot of indigo and iron dyed items: https://industryofallnations.com/collections/natural-dyes
  18. Yesterday
  19. 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.
  20. @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.
  21. Ran the Manchester Half Marathon today. Now off to eat Thai food and drink Thai beer. Baracuta Kamakura shirts Duke FC Tim's
