Finally took my one of a kind hand made embroidered denim vest to the tailor to be altered. Short people problems. Perfect length now. This old Coke jacket will be next. Temporarily pinned and cropped by about 3 inches. Looks great now. Fortunately the zipper was about 4 inches shorter than jacket itself.

Yep for sure! .. i did a little WH denim jacket flick book, everyone can look at that progression and say 'that's the perfect stage for me' and rarely is that stage within 6mths of them going in the bin I've always been a '1 pair of jeans at a time' guy, i've never rotated even between summer and winter, i start a pair and wear that pair till they fall to pieces which was usually within 12-18mths.. bin them and then start a new pair.. it's only this last year or so of changing track that i wish i still had piles of nicely worn denim instead of taking every pair through to the bitter end. -

Dryers are not at all popular here in the UK, it's almost tradition to line dry!.. we've never owned one, i don't actually know anyone who does own one.. maybe folks in large appartments with no outside space. I've always line dried (in the winter when it never stops raining, we have 2x Sheila Maid's which we hoist up to the ceiling) I always wash outside out, simply because working with fine particles of wood dust, the dust / dirt sits within the outside surface of the jeans so when i turn them inside out.. you end up with a whiteish, slimey substance, something akin to mixing flour and water from where the wash has lifted the wood dust away from the surface of the denim but the rinse cycle can't wash it away becasue it's trapped within the cavity of the inside out leg.. after a wash.. they would need a second rinse outside out, so i just started washing outside out. -
There’s all this, above, but also I think so many beautiful vintage pairs really were before a time before commercial washers (and especially dryers) were available. I’ve been known to dry my jeans sometimes but in the end it’s pretty reliable that I find jeans look better when the denim is almost or always hang dried and not electrically cooked, regardless of the workload they’re put under. Just preference, but I do think there is a sweet spot that isn’t just totally beating up like one might a cheap pair.
