  1. X-post from the Evo thread:

    I'm not a very good photographer, but here's some quick snaps of my s5000vx. They were taken indooors with artificial light; contrast is unchanged and the color is close to the second pic. I'm going to have my friend who is a semi-pro photographer take some decent shots of them when he gets a chance.

    They've been worn on and off for two years. I waited six months for the first wash and then washed them pretty much monthly after that. I would say they have had 20 washes in total. Both knees have been repaired by Denim Doctors: you can see the repair if you look closely.

  3. I went true to size on my '37s. The waist was a little tight at first but it stretched to a perfect fit. If you size up the legs are going to be too big, unless you are going for a looser fit.

    There's some pics of a two year pair of '37s floating aroung here somewhere, but I can't find them at the moment. The denim is red-cast and fades to a royal blue like the '55s. It's not grey or grainy like the denim on the '47s.

    EDIT: Here's pics Shorty Long posted of his '37s at 6 months. They really show the "true blue" color of this denim (aside from the dirt).

    Here are some pictures of my '37s. I've had them for about 6 months. They were worn on-and-off for the first 3 months, and then pretty hard for the last 3. They've gone through one initial warm soak and two cold washes.

  4. thanks***in my eyes the Alden 405 is not only one of the most beautiful boot out there - they also provide a perfect fit - in other words - they're really made for walking - which isn't always a given. You might find boots that look nice but feel crappy once u spend a couple hours in them

    My 405s are definitely my most comfortable boots. They have moulded to my foot much better than my 875s or GTs and are great for walking. I definitely see a pair of black Indys in my future :)

    For sale is a pair of Ooe Yofukuten 2201 black semi-custom. It was customized with all black stitching and black anodized buttons. The Number 22 denim is a black denim with a white weft and redline selvage.

    They have been hot soaked once and never worn out: I am selling them because they shrink more than I thought they would.

    The fit is similar to my LVC '47s. Ooe's shrink from tag size, so these would be best for someone who is a true 31 or 32.

    Retail was $310, I'm asking $105 shipped.

  6. I went true to size in my Sugarcane 66 and they are a slimish regular fit. I could have maybe gone up a size for a slightly roomier fit, but I don't think you necessarily need to size up.

    I hot washed them and hung dry, so they would probably shrink more if I dried them on hot. I'm pretty sure the O/W on the SE site have been machine dried, so that might account for the discrepancy in measurements.
