  1. im not a smoker (except for pot)...only ever took a puff of one a long time ago

    But since I've followed a pretty strict "paleo" diet for the past couple years, I was reading about the Kitavans who apparently smoke like chimneys and experience none of the health issues of westerners...

    Pretty interesting how a shitty diet may be what's causing smoking related health issues afterall...

    Decided to grab a pack of American spirits just now for the hell of it, but damn inhaling this shit is not a very pleasant sensation.

  2. yeah i'm not knocking pbjs at all...if they actually fit my body i would have kept mine for sure, but i think part of the reason you see so many great faded pairs is because they are a lighter weight denim compared to IH so there's more examples of them worn to hell. IH is really heavy and built to last a lifetime, but they still fade beautifully from what i've seen.

    sorry to derail the thread...carry on!

  3. That's honestly really annoying...and probably bad for his business. I was going to buy a wallet...but now....considering it takes seven weeks....

    Well actually this IS my first time buying any custom leather good, so maybe it just takes this long for all of them I guess. Guess Ill find out someday. Probably gonna order a wallet elsewhere

    Yeah, 7 weeks is absurd though. Tanner Goods took 2 weeks tops for a bifold wallet.

  4. hey for those of you who have ordered a belt from corter leather before...how long does it take to get it? Also do you get tracking numbers or anything? It's been about 3 weeks, and I sent him emails a week ago asking for tracking number etc and I haven't gotten a response....anyone know whatsup?

    I'm in the same boat. Haven't sent him any e-mails though.

  5. damn i was just cruising to the store on my skateboard, tried to pull a fancy maneuver, ate shit and slammed the back of my head on the pavement. Got up and my head was gushing blood and the first thing i thought of was fuck yeah road rash fades on my busters baby

  6. Got these a couple days ago from Self Edge. Soaked them to get most of the shrinkage out and wore them for a day.

    I think I could size down one to a 29, so I want to see if anyone would be interested in buying these for a discounted $OLD

    There's only one 30 left on self edge.

    Measurements:

    Waist (aligned): 15.5"

    Thigh: 10.9"

    Hem: 7.25"

    Inseam unaltered

    No fading yet, just mild creases you'd expect from a days wear.

  7. i hate ordering three different jawnz and soaking them to find out they don't fit. Then losing money cause i have to sell them for less than i bought them for a day ago.

  8. Usually it's safe to base your purchase on the raw measurements. The denim will shrink below those measurements after the initial soak/wash but they will stretch back out (or sometimes past) those initial raw measurements with wear/time.

  9. whats a good place to pick up a nice leather wallet that I can watch change color over time?

    Don't have too much money and When I was checking out flathead, IH, and other SE wallets, I cried a little. Anywhere to pick up something like that for cheaper?

    I'm no leather expert so take it with a grain of salt, but I really like my Tanner Goods bi-fold, and it only costed me 72 bones. You might check that out...
