  1. I've got the DX one, or something very similar to it. Just received it this week, but since its been raining, I haven't tested it out yet. Here it is mounted with my eos a3.

    how well does it actually grip the light? looks like just a tightening nylon strap that constricts the body of the light, but does it slip easy?

  2. Hey, has any one used a pocket flash light (Quark or some shit) for biking?

    I've thought of attaching it to the stem, top tube or helmet.

    WATCHA THINK?

    there are various one-fits-all type attachments for dedicated flashlights that hook onto your handlebars. i believe dealextreme has some.

  3. i built a fixie because it was the cheapest and easiest. scavenged parts and frame from local bike co-op. plus because i only ride bike for exercise around my neighborhood, so a fixed is better for that anyway.

  4. i was eavesdropping on my gf and roommate last night. roommate mentioned how i am not meant to be with her, and how she needed someone else, motherfucker!

    GAH

    i'm confronting her tonight when she gets off work, then bitch at the roomie (5)

    meh dont be too hard on the girl, depending on how she responded to your roommate. she may take your eavesdropping and confrontation the wrong way, etc.

    roommate on the other hand, needs moar google:roommate pranks (0)

  5. That's a really nice find. Did the seller have others?

    Only one I've ever seen. Was just searching for Edwin denims and came across it. Thats why I'm not quite sure what to think in terms of legit or not because I can't find anything like it elsewhere. Although I dont know why anyone would take the time to make just one if it was fake, so I'm assuming I lucked out and scored a rare piece.

  6. I don't think any Eds are STF, all sanforized AFAIK

    there is a seller on ebay that always has a stock of SEN skinnys from japan.

    they seem to be the same as the ones you can find on the internet, but the seller claims them to be a special japanese edition and theyre a different weight than the ones elsewhere online.

    anyway, on the tag it said that no special processes had been done to the jean, including sanforization. i'll try and find a picture now actually.

    the auctions say "09AW JAPAN EXCLUSIVE MODEL!!"

    and here's a link to one of the auctions

    http://cgi.ebay.com/09AW-EDWIN-Jeans-SEN-Skinny-Selvage-505-13oz-Denim-30_W0QQitemZ140371243197QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_CSA_MC_Jeans?hash=item20aec730bd#ht_1190wt_1165

    i know that these arent the jeans that the above poster asked about, but its the only thing ive seen in the way of any info about sanforization for Edwin denim. I dont know if this is special for this "japanese exclusive model", but meh figured i'd post whatever info I have.

  7. excuse my ignorance, but what model of Edwins are these?

    I need these in my life

    looks like Edwin SEN skinny w/o cinch

    been after these for a while too. they run close to $200.

  8. ive got 2 pairs of rigid 510's ( i know theyre not 511's but theyre almost the same jean and didnt want to make a whole seperate thread )

    The first was bought from UrbanOutfitters last spring.

    2.jpg

    It actually says "Dry Clean Only" on the wash tag.

    Pocket bag design:

    The second was from my local Levis store and seems to be rigid + overdyed.

    4.jpg

    It has an actual leather patch, which is weird considering most regular Levis have the cardboard patch.

    5.jpg

    And here are the two together:

    6.jpg

    Yes, they are 510 super skinnys, but I size up so that they fit a smallish bit baggy in the seat. I like them because they are very tapered.

    The first pair costed about $50 and the second was $70.

  9. Man that watch is gorgeous F50fan

    is that the original band?

    yeah its supposed to be the original (watch seller said it to be)

    its marked Hadley Roma, and from their website it says theyre a 100+ year old company, but have no idea really.

    they look like they still have similar styles, with the stitched border, but the clasp on my band looks way old in terms of style and weathering.

    im not too knowledgeable about watches, but do love them.

  10. got this edwin wall calendar off ebay for about $10 shipped

    havent really seen anything like it, dont know if its legit, but im assuming so.

    its made out of raw denim and has two real pockets.

    this thing is pretty thick and the pockets are as strong as any real jeans pockets.
