  1. i want to buy some jeans

    If you live in new england, the best way to get in the jeans is to come by the shop. Otherwise send some measurements and some loot electronically and well send the jeans. 225 for 13 oz. Cone mills denim, 275 for 16 oz. Japanese slub denim.

  2. Details of new small girls Jean proto series

    Custom Ct state seal white enamel over flat black tack buttons. made by Waterbury button, one of the oldest button manufacturer in the country. Made in Cheshire Ct. The grapevines represent the three original settlements of Windsor, Hartord, and Whethersfield. The motto on the bottom translates to " he who transplanted, sustained" this is one of the principals of Hartford denim philosophy 39caa163.jpg

  3. I started with a pair of a.p.c.'s about eight years ago. I soon thereafter found superdenim, and within two years I managed to spend $1000 I didn't really have on flathead, skull, fullcount, and sugarcane. Meanwhile I began to b

    Deconstruct and reconstruct. I began building jeans from duck from joannes fabrics. I then found premium denim and began making jeans. The whole time I am studying arboriculture and landscaping at Penn state. Meanwhile Marshall is hand sewing leather in Ct, and dave is building 48 sided round riding pens all thoughout the east coast. I left school and came back home. Marshal and Dave were both around. We all went to highschool together. I shared my skills I developed and they shared theirs. We started the company in the summer working our of our parents garages. Within six months we have relocated 6 times and we are now living in downtown hartford makin jeans full-time.

    It's an exciting time for the development of our company and I willbe sharing much of those developments on this thread.

  5. Right now I am in the business of custom orders for a small run of jeans rather than single pairs. I do have a size 32 and 2 x 34s that i will be exploring and refining my 24 oz. Construction techniques. I will sell these to individuals. Pm if interested.

  6. Overall the armscye seam was the hardest to do. Everything else not too hard. The collar was a bit tricky, but not too bad, but pulling off a hand-felled armscye was a bit dicey.

    What machine did you use for this?
