  1. we have a member on this board, Corter, who you could message for wallet reigns. he makes these kinda things.

    Corter actually PMed me right away and told me about the wallet reigns he offers for a superb price. I ordered right away - can't wait til it gets here.

  2. Where can I find a wallet reign in the US that goes with my KC's' wallet? They are sold out of any wallet reign that goes with this wallet on KC's Japan site.

    Something like this would work for me but I also like the braided look.

    Thanks for the help.

  3. Cheers for the comments. The problem with sizing down on slim jeans is that it makes it difficult to wear lower.

    Three hour hot soak with the water changed every hour. The water went a dark brown and there was a smell similar to rust that came off the jeans. By the third water change, the water was only slightly brown and the smell on the jean was much improved. No indigo loss that I could see. The denim felt a lot fresher after the soak (I don't need any of that metallic smelling brown stuff to come off the jeans onto my legs). It did shrink a little in the inseam (about 1 inch) so no cuffs. The waist sort of stayed the same, though I stretched it a bit while it was still wet.

    Now it's off deck while I work on my SC40200 till the Dubbleworks comp.

    Can you describe your hot soak process? What temperature? Anything else to know?

    Thanks.

  4. I've had the Japanese 1980s for a month now and I love the look and fit. Compared to my first pair of raw denim, the RRDS, these show little fading so far. I bought a 32 and there has been a decent amount of stretching, definitely more than with my RRDS, so I wish I had bought one size smaller, but I'm still very happy with this pair of jeans.

    I am thinking of picking up the Rockers. Can anyone who has worn the 1980s compare the fit? How much tighter are the Rockers? (I plan to have children) Anyone have pics? Thanks.
