More than double yer' money, nice work if you can get it.

^np.  pls rep this post then

Are these the overdyed Y's from 2008?

Been looking for a pair for ages

^ Thanks for that but I was wondering if anyone had images of the specific season the Aurora print stuff was out?

^ I think it was called the 'Aurora' print.

On that subject, does anyone know the season, maybe AW/08?

I've been looking for a parka with that same/similar print made by Facetasm but I haven't seen any lookbooks or images of it anywhere. If anyone knows the jackert I'm talking about or has any images or lookbooks could you let me know?

^ No because the Alkaline process (pigment for cotton, as you called it) would counteract the Acid process.

You can do it separately and if you make sure you use enough for a deep black with both then it should come out even.

Hey which women's label had that dress that the model yanks on which turns it into another dress? There was a gif of it all over the place..

Only issue with the less but better thing is it can leave people looking way too calculated. Like, 'I saved up for all these expensive pieces but I bring nothing new to them cause all else I have is white t shirts'.

Sometimes you gotta spend money on random junk to flamboozle up the expensive pieces and avoid looking soulless.

Cos nothing says I'm brimming with soul like buying 'random junk to flamboozle up the expensive pieces'

^ Really nice, stitching looks really clean and well made overall

I think in the future if you were to do them again it might be worth tapering more with the outseam rather than the inseam and that would probably avoid the stacking above the outside of your knee (but that might just be how it looks in the photo)

^Was that the one on Y! Auctions?

If so can you post fitpics when it arrives?

Best thing Is-Ness have done:

Sometimes when I'm thinking about something I want I can waste quite a bit of time thinking up some perfect piece of clothing that probably doesn't exist but is nonetheless fun to dream up.

I don't have any actual design or tailoring skills or training but I envisaged a matte black silk bomber with the internal rucksack elements of 'that' Final Home jacket and I think I might try to make it.

Anyone else have anything dream items that have been going around their head but probably don't exist (or aren't as nice as you imagined them)?

^ Cone Mills is a large company and produces many different denims each with varying characteristics there isn't just one type of selvedge denim they produce that all fades the same and it depends on how you wear and wash your jeans as to how they will fade. People get differing fades wearing jeans made from the same denim so you can't accurately predict exactly how they'll turn out.

Most of the predominantly domestic brands seem to shrink down to around 33" but that's too short for me, are there many guys that do 36" post shrinkage inseams?

Arn Mercantile has been around for a few years though hasn't it?

You don't seem to be after what the brands you have mentioned really offer, so I'd say just get a TOJ.

^Cotton doesn't melt, burning it won't really solve the problem in the long term so you should get a needle and thread and just loop the thread around the inseam wherever it's frayed.

What causes the puckering on the yoke and back pockets of some jeans when some 100% cotton thread jeans don't have it?

Is it from certain machines being used or thread tensions or something else?

Thanks

^Sorry to requote this but is there anyone that could educate me?

Thanks

Did anyone from here buy the Orizzonti Denime's off ebay a few days ago?

Could you pm me if you did and they don't fit?

Thanks

Thanks for all the answers above, are the triangles generally isosceles (like the pictures above) or right angle like this :

?

Thanks very much

Is there a particular name for that kind of stitching on the collar?

Is this Jean Shop denim?

Just wondering as I've seen it for sale

^

They're cut (on the bias), without a side seam, from an English woven heavy canvas which I had piece dyed in a small vat, so that it had to be squashed down to fit. Because the fabric is so stiff it dyes irregularly across the folds in the cloth. The colour itself is mixed to match a piece of flowerpot from my windowsill (I actually chipped off a piece and posted it to the dye house). I wanted something akin to the classic duck colour, but a bit warmer and deeper.

The fit is type133, which is slightly lower-waisted and straighter-legged than either 130 or 132, and they have seat darts rather than a yoke. All the manufacturing details are the same as the denim jeans, although as a nod to their heritage there are no belt loops (belt loops and belts weren't introduced until the early C19th, I believe), instead there's a cinch back, buckled with 2 brass saddle rings, cast in England. These match up nicely with the lost-wax-cast brass button at the front.

I don't have a pair with me right now, but if people would like I'd be happy to post some fit pics at some point.

This thread is so enjoyable just to read through

Looks like it was stamped not carved

Cool, the guy who now runs/owns ARN mercantile used to post on here. I think he claimed US mills were offered government subsidies to sell off old industrial plant post WW2 in the 50's and some looms ended up in the hands of Japanese family businesses (and allegedly remain to this day).

I assume this is bs and was too early in the timeline of phasing out looms unless it was phasing out older models? Its fun hype anyways, I like all the mystique.
