Yes, it's the wide version of 0105. I have them in 31. I have the old tapered version of 0105 in a 30. I would guess that the 31 in actually spot on at about an inch bigger in the waist, so they're sizing the same. It stretches the same too, quickly, easily and a little more than a half inch. I tried on the SS24 11.5oz 0105 and Type 1 the other day. It's unbelievably soft and drapes beautifully. I have one of each on order for their release this spring. I don't know what sizes as the samples fit perfectly and I just said "whatever those sizes are."4 points

Stopped in to Milworks recently and found they were now carrying some Made In Japan Edwin jeans, Akita model. Both a straight cut and a taper. I ended up with a pair of the straight. Really like the overall fit, especially the top block. They are very close in fit to my favorite jeans (Iron Heart 888). My measurements are close to the posted chart (on Milworks and Brooklyn clothing sites). They are also very similar cut to my Fullcount 1108xx. Almost forgot, the pocketbags are actually deep and usable!! One of my pet peeves with other jeans. Description of the denim: We have received a selection of EDWIN's brand new "Dark Pure Indigo Rainbow Selvedge" in both Regular Taper and Straight fits, featuring dry indigo and washes weighing in at 13.5oz. Custom woven by Kaihara Mills in Japan, this denim is spun on vintage machinery, at a low speed and tension to create truly vintage selvedge denim. A mixture of American and Australian long-staple cotton are used for a softer hand, with the additional benefit of the stark white colour of these cottons allowing a deeper indigo dye to occur. The warp and weft threads are spun differently for traditional texture, with the warp featuring natural middle-pitched uneven yarns to allow 1940's/50's esque fading on the warp, while the weft incorporates shorter-pitched uneven yarns, twisted tightly for a crunchier weave. This "Dry Indigo" is our raw offering in the afore-mentioned 13.5oz Indigo Rainbow Selvedge, sanforized to remove shrinkage. The use of long-staple cotton means these are quite comfortable during the break-in process, with a nice soft hand that will really become apparent with a bit of wear, while the shorter-staple cotton in the weft and the low-tension weaving method give the denim an inherently vintage look and feel. These are a truly bulletproof pair of quality jeans, featuring a year-round traditional denim weight, deep rope-dyed indigo with excellent aging and fading potential, authentically vintage texture and feel, finished up with masterful craftsmanship and vintage details, all packed into an absolutely killer Regular Straight fit in EDWIN's 03, a timeless and comfortable cut for all styles and individuals. ATK03 Regular Straight 13.5oz Dark Pure Indigo Rainbow Selvedge Dry Indigo Sanforized Raw Denim 100% premium long-staple cotton 3x1 twill weave w/ natural weft Low-tension weave w/ uneven yarns for vintage 50's texture Pure indigo 10 dip rope-dye process Rainbow Selvedge ID Custom cowhide leather patch EDWIN custom branded rivets and buttons EDWIN "W" pocket arctuates Hidden fifth-pocket Selvedge ID Tobacco chainstitch construction3 points

Got these 2013 bred 1's about 6 weeks ago and ive put countless miles into them , really nice shoe and a colourway that I've wanted for ages . Prices are crazy for breds but I got these for a decent price , being honest I would have preferred the 2016 release but I didn't want to miss out on these and end up having to pay double for some 2016 . As usual I stained the midsole and swapped the laces for some foxtrot laces . Really I can only think of 3 more jordan 1's that I'm after 1 . Kentucky 2 . Black toe 3 . And last 1 of the meralic pairs .... maybe a navy or purple2 points

@kiya hey!.. I bought this yoyo back in 2007 maybe 2008.. .. without a thought towards it ever becoming collectable ..we had a strong pound back in those days, we were getting almost $2 to the £ so it would have cost me peanuts to import this^ from the US. It's been carefully looked after (no dings) but I haven't thrown it for 10yrs+ .. it's always been kept in the carton so the carton isn't exactly in perfect condition due to me taking it out/in. I spotted this website https://yoyo.collectionhero.com/outer/gallery_listings.php?keyword=crucial+yoyo According to this^ they've sold on ebay back in 2022 for $300+ and frankly i'd rather have $300 than something i've just found in a drawer but im clueless regarding the buoyancy of the US yo market... .. If i was to auction this^ on (worldwide) ebay through GSP starting at lets say $10.. would i be guaranteed a sale price close to the above mentioned or would you recommend listing it for $300 with offers? .. if it could sell for $50 .. i'll chuck it back in the drawer The UK market is limited at best..1 point

Mrs. CSL loves Sal's Cactus Mart. They used to have space alongside HW126, but are now tucked back in a neighborhood in Santa Paula, CA. This location must have been the mothership for want of a better term, as the owner told us some of the cacti there had been growing 40 years. Cactus is about the only thing that will survive here due to it being too gnarly for rabbits & squirrels to eat. We have to pick varieties that can stand cold weather as it can get below freezing in Winter.1 point

Here is TCB's latest lined jacket, pictured with 30s jean for contrast. They've suggested this could be their last lined jacket, at least on an annual cycle, which would be a relief for my wallet as I've bought each of the last 3 models. Overall very happy with this jacket putting it on the the first time. It is especially pliant and soft, including the lining which makes it comfortable to wear with just a t-shirt. I'm not sure if they will put more of these up for sale once they're done with size exchanges on the pre-order but they often do. I'm looking forward to what they produce next now that they've closed a few chapters of their design philosophy this year.1 point

I've only ever bought one JP import @Geeman it was the most expensive car i've ever bought.. don't get too excited, it was only £5k, this was back in the late 90s, i'd just come out of a very costly decade of aircooled v-dub ownership so i bought something Japanese and reliable.. a 1990 Honda CRX V-Tec SiR ^the photo was stuck together.. it's the same as this one https://www.pistonheads.com/news/ph-spottedykywt/honda-cr-x-sir-spotted/38984 I loved that car.. in those days JP imports were a new thing, you'd only see the occasional Skyline and maybe a 300ZX.. it didn't have full leathers like the UK model, only half leathers but it did have power steering, a full glass roof and air-con.. which the UK model didn't. It would rev into next week!.. alas, i wrecked it.. Huf! that was a puddle of regret I'm due a midlife-crisis?1 point

Visited Denver and the surrounding area last weekend for some fall weather, beautiful part of the country. Flew out of Houston super early Friday, saw a cool Maneki-neko display above a shop. Landed, swung by the AirBnb to drop off our stuff and headed to the botanic gardens which were decorated for Halloween. After a couple hours wondering around we headed to Cerebral Brewing which is one of my favorites in the area. Walked over to lunch at a diner next to the brewery, had a good burger and a cocktail. Later that evening we departed for a ghost tour which ended up being the most eventful part of our trip. We met the tour group in Cap Hill, there were about 20 of us in total. We stopped at the first historic home, and while we were there I noticed someone running that didn't look like they were exercising and I pointed out how weird it was to my wife, but didn't think much of it. Just set an alarm off in my mind. Then as we're leaving some insane guy started yelling at the group. He looked like a fairly normal guy in workout clothes, but he was looking for a fight, saying he wanted to kill all of us and a bunch of other unhinged shit...but then we realized he had a hammer that he was swinging around. He actually threw it and it grazed my wife's ankle but she's completely fine. The entire group kinda speed-walked / jogged to a nearby bar which welcomed us in while the tour guide called the police. Needless to say the tour was cancelled and we received a refund, we filled out police reports while sitting at the bar. I had to say that I was actually impressed with the cops (haven't had many experiences with them in general) as they were respectful and responded very quickly (two things that don't happen in Texas). I've been to a lot of major cities around the world and I've never had anything like that happen before. The next day we woke up early, grabbed some breakfast nearby. On the way up to Rocky Mountain National Park we stopped in Boulder for a coffee. Entered the park around noon, sadly the park seasonal road closure limited our ability to see a lot of the park (we weren't prepared to hike extensively, so we had to stick to the roads, park the car and then hike for a bit). Beautiful place, I'd love to come back when the entire trail is open! On our way back we stopped at a little coffee shop off the side of the road in Estes Park which had a nice duck pond. Drove back to town, took a nap and watched some football, then walked to dinner nearby. Walked home and grabbed some wine (where the guy working at the shop complemented my Freewheelers sweat!) The next morning we grabbed a coffee and a pastry, walked to Berkley Supply (tried on a Samurai tee, wasn't crazy about the fit but the Japanese grown cotton fabric is really nice). Headed out to New Terrain brewing in Golden which has some nice light hiking trails on their property. Wearing my FW L2, Full Back tee and FW 37s. My wife said I had to post this as she referred to it as a "model photo". Headed back to town, grabbed lunch at The Grateful Gnome. Headed downtown to explore a bit, checked out Union Station then went to a steakhouse. And that wraps it up, enjoyable weekend with beautiful weather. Would love to visit again!1 point

It is this girls birthday today so we did what she enjoys the most.. running free in the forest. Found some mushrooms, yellowfoot in english I guess, suppilovahvero in finnish.. did not pick any as we have freezer full of that stuff after this fall. I was wearing Tender 900 too, inspired by @AlientoyWorkmachine, and some Engineered garments fatigues.1 point
