Arket - Denime - Red Wings

Also went there. Really cool show! I’d say there’s as much denim as there is motorcycles. Went there with my son. He wanted to sit in Yasui-san’s car but then got cold feet and cried when they offered him to go inside.

Warehouse, Cushman, Full Count, Yuketen.

Good to see that so many people have paid in full!

@mlwdp yeah! It was sick!

edit: sold Fullcount 2107 (type 1) jacket BNWT - only tried on. Size 40 one wash version. Shoot me offers if you're interested.

I haven’t taken photos of pants, because I’m currently wearing 1/2 of them. I also haven’t taken photos of tees (2x), a whole big slew of socks, nor a variety of smaller things (shades, watch, mugs, gloves, kerchief, ???). With those exceptions out of the way, finally: jackets & coats. Shown first are the Type 961 Baste Pocket Jacket, in red ochre cotton velvet; the Type WS922 Welsh Flannel Curve Front Jacket (Thanks Austin!); the Type 425 Double Cuff Flat Jacket, in some sort of very soft (felted?) wool. Last but not least are the Tenth Anniversary Edition Type 900 and the standard Type 902.

Pulled out some old classics today. Warehouse Tender (10 years old?) Birkenstocks

Also not seeing anything on my end, we were just supposed to send the funds? EDIT: Scratch that, just found the email in spam! Thanks for the heads up @srudy 🙏

/\ this. Fabric stability is absolutely affected by temperature .... in my opinion Whether that is water temperature, or drying temperature is your experiment. But unfortunately - as intimated, rightly, above - experience no matter how much it's repeated (and reddited* ) amounts to little more than anecdotal on a scale of research. Find a meta-analysis.

All sorted! Thank you @beautiful_FrEaK

I'm also getting a cacio e pepe recipe too, paid extra 💁‍♂️

I love winter. FW/OA/Tender

Speaking of chinos, picked up my first pair. Stone Island Marina / Samurai SJ48CP / Common Projects

paid!!!

Yes he sent the final balance (140+7+shipping based on your info)

So BOT is opening online orders later this month. I was told they could ship internationally if I did a bank transfer. Current with time is 15 months. I'll probably pass because that wait is a little long for me. They also changed their name to Beyond of Trust.

Paid the remaining portion as well, looking forward to recieving them!

Totally missed out on this, I'm looking forward to following along!

Outside work, i hardly ever wear a denim jacket nowadays.. (hence the sale) i'm usually just running around in jeans and a sweatshirt, if it's cold, i'll stick a down jacket / vest over the top.. if it's raining i'll stick a waterproof over the top.. In work, i'm still wearing my trusty, yet very threadbare WH 2001 every day. Beside the WH and the Junky i'v just got a LVC (555) 506xx which i only wear with very worn jeans.. i'm not keen on crispy new dark jeans worn with a well worn, faded denim jacket look..

@LazySThat’s on my list of motorcycle hot rod shows to go to! Already been to Congregation in NC and Mama Tried in WI.

Some nice jeans there exactly how they should look with all that twisted leg seam going on.

Just figured out how to post pics from my phone haha Stay brave

@srudy, had you seen this^^^

MiUSA 1946 after not much wear and some minor edits (testing out designs for the upcoming Word of Mouth contest)

I've been discussing this a little with @beautiful_FrEaK, a simple overview of the jeans mostly focussed upon here, i.e. from 36 to 55. We noticed that the 47 has of course been widely discussed, as have in the recent years the different WWII and 46 models. On the different 50s models there hasn't been that much discussion, I found. These are, I think, the main characteristics regarding denim and cut. 36/37: probably the widest fit (thigh, knee, hem) dark denim denim relatively smooth stitch colour: mostly tobacco/orange (LVC has some lemon/yellow in it) 42: two versions, one with cinch, one without, already coarser WWII denim stitch colour: yellow WWII: different versions, but generally higher rise, wider in the thigh and knee, a little tapered, dark denim relativel coarse (neepy and slubby to various degrees) denim stitch colour: yellow 46/47: Rise a little lower than the WWIIs Upper thight a little less than WWIIs, knee similar to WWIIs, hem wider than WWIIs, thus straighter, hardly any taper less dark denim, more blue relatively smoother denim stitch colour: orange and yellow 47 tab one sided (katamen) 50s- there seem to be three main model: 1951, 1953 and 1954 (and on) 1951- little lower rise compared with the 47, similar thigh, less knee and hem denim again a bit brighter similar denim to 47 stitching is mostly brown with some yellow tab both sided (ryomen) 1953- the year the type 2 jacket was introduced while the 51 became slimmer in the knee and hem than the 47, the 53s got wider than the 47s again in the knee and hem denim seems similar to 47 and 51 stitching is mostly brown with some yellow (rainbow stitching) with the arcs from the WH version in yellow shorter side stiches no more selvedge in the coin pocket narrower v-stitch tab both sided (ryomen) 1954- very similar to the 1953 according to the WH models the hem is a little wider switch to more mass production had the back middle belt loop move a bit to the left, offset --> easer to sew as the material/fabric is not as thick the WH model still has the leather patch, later switch to paper patch yarn colours like 53 model 1956- The FW model is even slimmer than the 1951 one, knee and hem Now while the FWs, TCB and WH 50s models I checked all had mainly brown stitching with some yellow (waist, arcs, ...) the 50s models of Cushman (lot 22177) and also Joe McCoy (905S) have mostly yellow stitching. Cushman Joe McCoy So where there models in the 50s with mostly brown stitching and others with mostly yellow? Or is this based on specific year models? Perhaps something is stated in the 501 book. Here are some helpful measurements and overview graphics from the Duke.

1927 jacket looking like vintage

Warehouse x3, Georgia Boots - as I’m on my way to Yosemite so I’m wearing the cheap ones. This Warehouse Lot 2202 is really fantastic. The attention to detail is wild.

What about his dad, Nigel Lafarge?

Pokey Lafarge live at Leeds Irish Centre last Friday, ably supported by the Tailspins. Always a great show.

Today is an office day-off, so i decided to visit our honeybees to check on their production

Post cold wash fit. Legs are nice and roomy, top is ever so slightly snug, but is already stretching out. Might do one more hot wash just to get whatever shrink is left out (lost an inch in the inseam with the first cold wash) but feeling like the sizing worked out pretty well!

There's not actually any denim in this photo, but it's too good not to share. From Traces Of Texas on FB/IG. I especially like the hats and outerwear.

Trip down memory lane. Sheffield, as ever yet also increasingly, a curious mix of dereliction and development. But also steeped with history, architecture and, my reason for stopping, long standing traditional booze holes. Well, maybe not the former - long since and still closed, but the latter I was delighted to find, open. Doesn’t serve Kelham Island Brewery, but makes up for it with a superb range of alternative local ale.

Here we go. SC1966 New pair (34x 34) vs old pair (33 x 34). Same tags and both should be one washed (even though the seller said raw for the new pair).
