    • Moonstars run big.  Mine are 10 (US) 44 (EUR).  I wear 11 (44.5) or 11.5 (45) in Vans.  
    • That is not my photo. But I'm about to receive these sneakers in about 10 working days. They take 35-40 working to make them at Goral in Sheffield, England. https://www.goral-shoes.co.uk/products/the-mellor-ii-horween-dark-brown I am actually excited. The Horween chrome excel leather uppers especially. 
    • Real McCoy's 600 Ranch sub-brand - any idea what era these are? 1990s pre-Joe McCoy maybe? Jacket might be a nice wranglerpro option for someone? not too expensive and a reasonable size https://www.fromjapan.co.jp/japan/en/auction/yahoo/input/h1194238684/ Arcs! Cords with arcs
    • Apologies for the double photo post, but figured I would follow up here. I’m not really one for reviews, especially on a brand new pair - but since there aren’t any other impressions here I’ll note a few. First - this was the first time I did two washes before wearing. First one was a steaming, and agitated (eh, @Double 0 Soul) soak for about an hour, then chucked them in the warm wash and pulled them before the spin cycle. They dried up nice and crispy but still had some room in the waist, which was fine - I did buy what I thought would be a size up, and that seemed pretty true. But, I wanted to see if I could maybe get anything else out so I did a hot aggressive wash (pulled before spin again), and the waist did tighten up a bit more. They’re still an oversized pair on me, belt needed, but again that’s what I went for. I’ve mostly avoided marbling - the rough plan for these is not to let them hit water again for a good long while, esp as they will only be worn sporadically. Conclusion on sizing and fit is that they’re just about in line with the sugar canes and Freewheelers of the world.  Compared to the WMJ I’m used to right now this denim is more substantial - which makes sense as it’s listed as closer to 15 oz washed. I actually kinda like the arcs, though I’m not sure I would if they were stitched. The pockets give the impression of being slightly on the narrower side, esp the coin pocket. Back pockets too, but still hold a wallet fine. I forget what I hemmed them to - I think 33” pre soak, but it should have been more. Ah well. There’s a sort of black enamel coating on the laurel wreath fly buttons which is a bit unique, curious to see how that ages over time. Chainstitch runoff at the waist is a nice touch - no other crazy run offs or dangly strings, everything else is pretty proper and clean more like Freewheelers I’d say. Maybe I’ll get some time for more detail photos later but in general, I approve!
