Tiny update from me as well! I washed a couple weeks ago, lost count now that I do it more often, but with all the mud when the snow's melting and my dog jumping like crazy these days, I actually haven't worn the 40s since. It was nice to have some variety (although I must admit I mainly wore sweatpants at the home office) and also great to put them on again yesterday. A couple of shots after struggling with the bluetooth remote app. Only after did I remember that my camera was programmed to simulate ol' Kodachrome, so the photos are a little bit warmer and more saturated than real life. Fades are not showing that well either, but they're coming along nicely now, for the first time I might get those faded-to-almost-white thighs that I so often envy in vintage jeans. Oh, and @Uncle Karl, you certainly look like a winner to me! Lots of other pairs look great as well.

I foresee some major changes coming my (our) way and I don't think it will only affect my jeans budget

Same shit, different day.. S&M 555 £2 Tee Vintage Junky Vans I had a walk up to the old Ski Village today, it was built on an area called Parkwood Springs where folks lived shoulder to shoulder with heavy industry, the whole area was returned to nature by the pre-war slum clearances.. When the Ski Village used to get into financial difficulties the owners (allegedly) torched it...some years later they torched it again...and again. When it became wasteland back in the early 00's i used to go to allnighters here, watching the sun rise over the city was quite magical, or it appeared so at the time, in recent years it's been a Traveler camp but the council moved them on and once again it's returning to nature.

And this is my pair 6 months passed. I came back from the repair and on the second day my knee broke again.

Another wash and dry, liking these the more that I wash and wear them. Pocket bags are holding up well too.

So ....... I caved and washed the 50's , was only kidding myself thinking I could keep them deadstock So for comparison here is the fits of both the 46 and 50 50 46 The 50 feels a little looser bit the 46 has a slightly higher rise 50 46 Really happy with both pairs , fit and details are great . I have missed putting on the conners ww2 in the morning but these definitely dont disappoint

All of the science that I do happens inside of a stainless steel vacuum chamber. There are a few windows on the chamber, but never as many as we'd like there to be—and, as such, the areas around them are always crowded with lenses and mirrors in order to fit all the different sorts of light in and out that we can. Because of this, in the 3+ years that I've been working on this experiment, I've never really gotten a great view into the science chamber. As a matter of fact, it's been so long since the mirrors and lenses started getting added that the person from whom I inherited the whole thing, in his 7+ years working on the experiment, never got got to see directly inside the chamber either—at least not from any good angles. Right now, after a series of mishaps, we're in the process of pumping out our chamber. A very small amount of water got into it and stuck to the walls, and this is reacting with the rubidium that we use to do science and creating hydrogen, which doesn't stick to the walls, and which causes trouble bouncing around. To get rid of the water, we need to wrap the chamber up in heater tape and fiberglass and aluminum foil and heat the whole thing up pretty hot while it's connected to a series of pumps; to wrap the chamber appropriately, we need to remove all of the surrounding optics. For the first time in almost a decade, it's possible to get a good view into the science chamber. For me, this is a Very Nice Thing.

Ellie is doing well although she’ll need a good few days of recovery and close monitoring - so thank you for all the good wishes, they were and are greatly appreciated.
