@julian-wolf really cute photo of you two in the garden, warmed my heart! 😄

@julian-wolf I can't tell if I'm even in the same contest anymore your pair is so far along 😂

No key ring for me either, my pair was also missing the flasher 🥲

Estate sale items of a 40+ year Levis exec https://www.ebay.com/usr/sfcitysales?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=1dyng4nzski&sssrc=4623447&ssuid=1dyng4nzski&stype=1&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

I think it's also just where the market is right now, though personally I've already trended in the opposite direction

Ooof really nice pair. Unfortunately I can't do exposed back rivets so I'll have to skip on these like I did the black S&S 10th's 🥲 but hopefully someone gets a pair I an live vicariously through

Probably a couple months behind most, but happy with the progress so far

@julian-wolf there's just no way but I appreciate the words of confidence! 😅🙏 I'm for sure due an update (hopefully some good light this weekend); I was in Japan for a month and hoped all the walking would yield impressive updates, but alas, I found a perfectly fitting and faded pair of black 501's second hand a couple days into my trip, which I haven't been able to take off since! Glad to know we still have lots of time left

Picked up a pair of the banner denim 220XX-47's in Japan at the Warehouse flagship. Funny enough, I liked them more than the WH pairs I tried on 😂

Haha yeah this exactly, happens to me every time! Average 20k steps per day, smaller portion sizes, stopped working out (lost muscle mass), overall heat killed the appetite compounded by being there for over a month! Goal is to live there permanently by end of year, so hoping to keep off the weight long term

Lost a ton of weight in Japan and fortunately fit into my pair again, which also coincides with me wanting to wear slimmer cuts lately. I ordered mine around 2020, a '37 cut with a modern taper (like 2000's 501's) so I might be breaking them in again. Glad to finally get around to it!
