No moving, just watching

Nailed it

Just checking the mods are alert!!! 🤣

Got a couple of Bronson bangers in the post today... actually nice they are too... however, what's going on with the rope bondage?!

I have the '43 tux... beautifully wonky it is too... makes a refreshing change from all that straight stitching that has saturated the market 😜 I've worn it down the local supermarket before and Mavis on checkout never batted an eyelid... but that may be because I stood ever so slightly on a slant to make it appear that the box pleats were straight... actually it's probably because there is only us 20 Sufu'ers who ruminate (in a good way :)) on these things While we're chatting... I was at my lad's football semi-final a few weeks ago wearing a FW wabash jacket. One of the parents said 'I'm a bit superstitious... you're not wearing your lucky denim jacket'... I asked him which one... and his response proved to me he thought I only had one and they were therefore all the same WTF 🤯. The sad ending to that story is the lads lost their first competitive game in 2 years that day 😭... the key message I took from it is that, irrespective of the model, all denim jackets can be lucky!! I'll put some '43 tux pics up soon so you can throw tomatoes at it

Ah but SC are only repro'ing that one wonky model so all the repros need to be the same wonkiness proportionately 😉

That's where the modern skill comes in mate

1933 / 37 set up Jacket hanging around in Malham after a walk Jeans getting some fresh air after a day on my legs - I'm holding on hopefully until mid-summer before they get a wash, see what happens

I heard Freewheelers are thinking of doing a line in incontinent trousers for the ageing population... calling them underalls, like overalls only different

I hope it's going to reappear on Sufu! The wabash I mean (as well as the model... WAYWT is calling you out mate 😉) The cardigan is another beauty... what's up... has global warming reached Scotland??

Who copped this beauty?

Freewheelers Ironalls / Butcher Products / Belafonte / Buckweat

^ especially with all the squats you've been doing pal!

^ I found the WW2 felt slim too after wearing wide jeans... however, as you said Julian, it didn't take long to swing around and get used to them. I tend to now flip in and out wearing them and all's good, especially as the denim has softened up lots

Thanks gents - confirms suspicions - suppose it'd have to be Easter or December holidays then to fit with school here

To folks in the know... what is Japan like from a weather perspective in July? I'm considering taking the family and we're pretty active. Perhaps 5 days in Tokyo then travelling to 2 other places in Japan to mooch and take in the culture. Climate charts show Tokyo as hot. But is it bearable / ok weather for mooching or not? Any insights on other places that are milder appreciated. I'm conscious weather charts don't tell the full story. Thanks

I'm not sure I agree with this 😃

Yep I wouldn't disagree with you Marnard... though I'm not sure what you're not sure you agree with To add... my FW WW2 era jackets are far more cleanly constructed (and a different fit) than my SC or Connors repros of similar era... though I'm not sure if that's FW's design choice or they were copying a cleaner vintage specimen from that time...

All cool doc... it only really reminded me of the FW thread chat hence my update above
