  1. I think they used to be more repro-esque when they produced their red and blue models. A long time ago now though…
  2. @PartTimeBarista - that looks more like the work of a full-time barista. Flat white? Bravo!
  3. I bought a 44 in the 45, a 45 in the 44, a 42 in the 43 and a 43 in the 42.
  4. Thanks for the reminder Neal, I’d completely forgotten 😬
  5. Not exactly unknown, BUT… the return of Groundalls/Silverstone (in a limited WW2 capacity): Groundalls/Silverstone WW2 goodness Another contender for the Wide Jeans thread.
  6. Could just be the teaser introduction to further offerings…? Next up will be a standard 506XX repro in size 40! Actually there are matching WW2 jeans too: Groundalls Silverstone WW2 jeans
  7. I assume they (whoever ‘they’ are after lying dormant for 35 years!) wanted to launch a T-back version and, staying true to the original, only did so in a size 46.
  8. @Double 0 Soul Groundalls Silverstone s506xx WW2
  9. You are not alone! The only time I think I’ve worn a hat/specs is when skiing (woolly hat/sunglasses) and maybe a sun hat & shades on a summer holiday once or twice. It simply doesn’t feel right to me to have too much clutter around my bonce.
  10. Does that link show photos of the original or the repro? To be clear, the belt loop issue relates to the method of attachment AND the placement?
  11. ^ Some people think that about jeans full stop. Hence the proliferation of slobs in athleisure attire (the sportaci get a pass on this) 😆
  12. Some years ago, I handled a pair of raw 32oz Eight G jeans that I came across by chance in a (now closed) shop. My eyes watered at the thought of wearing them, so 40oz…!
  13. I would guess not if all their other jeans still use poly cotton. I wonder how much these’ll be…
  14. Pretty unlikely as his is a boys school! It's in West London.
  15. My son did his bronze (practice) in the Surrey Hills too, in 2023 I think, did the proper thing on the South Downs. Still no phones allowed, although he managed not to get lost! 😉 Silver was in the Black Mountains last summer and Gold will be in Snowdonia (Eryri) this summer.
  16. Duke of Edinburgh Award My son has completed his Bronze and Silver awards and is now doing his Gold. Edit: OO beat me to it!
  17. It’s funny how AI means natural when it comes to indigo dye but artificial when it comes to intelligence.
  18. I get perplexity.ai to create all my PowerPoints these days!
  19. We used to call them body warmers back in the 80s and they seemed to be worn primarily by market stall holders, often teamed up with moon boots! 😅
