They look like two old Sufu denimheads talking about Instagram 😀

Here you go... I didn't have a plan on what to wear the vest with... and after wearing it all weekend, I still don't ... my conclusion is just throw it on and wear it with whatever. I've been to the cinema in it, nearly losing a chocolate bar in one of the ten pockets, gone for kebabs in it and lounged on the sofa watching the footy in it. Multi-functional. I'll also refrain from calling it a vest... I think the 'sleeveless outing coat' is, in fact, a more appropriate description given the style, weight and voluminous fit... at least in the size I got, which is my usual Ooe size The denim and shape are still settling down so it hasn't draped yet... I can see it coming in especially useful when out and about on holidays

I know you never asked for an opinion... I prefer the fit of the FC jacket... but those dangly bits would drive my ocd nuts!! Well done for rolling with them mate...

This looks like it could get lively!! I'll be out on a limb here... but I think one of the RO models is quite nice (the low-top Austin has) I know the fella who runs the allotment store which is stacked with RO stuff... and said hello to him once in there... and the RO stuff just isn't for me... it's not gothic enough 😀 ... joking aside, I definitely wouldn't go looking for it. That said, each to their own. Would I have noticed the pumps if SE hadn't advertised them? No. But let's face it many thousands of folks going back years wouldn't have originally noticed loads of nice stuff if SE hadn't set up shop and advertised it... so respect due for that imo

The pics aren't great... but the Amoskeag repro denim surely is 😊... roll on the jacket and the jeans 😉 Pics 1-3 indoors with the light on... 4-6 outdoors in poor light I took a size 44 rather than opt for (or try my sizing luck with) a snugger fit... so it's pretty voluminous, with many pockets (like CSL has opined already) and the storage space of a modest backpack... I like!!

@Newman thanks for the pics... looks belt skimmingly good... I have a couple of similar length that took a little getting used to but imo that kind of length can work well

@Double 0 Soul top stuff... you've won the internet today!!

Overall quality is a bit shonky for $240k... the previous owner hasn't even washed them properly 😉

@silencejoe that older cpo is looking nice!

@Newman nice jacket... does it still fit you? Would be good to see pics if possible

Good news. I think the length looks good mate. Good luck with them. Looking forward to the Steam Locomotive pics!!

Are they one wash or raw? If the former, they look like they fit well and look nice jeans. If they're going to shrink in the wash, that might be an issue Anything else squirreled away?

Sharpened scissors at the ready mate?

@Broark how are your other Rick Owen trainers doing?

FW '20s tux FTW!!!

This sounds interesting... hope you don't mind me asking what you have planned? Hoping there's a few what is my indigo-neoprene-suit-doing-today posts featuring

You guessed right mate. Just looked this up - avenuewebstore states the '22 jeans denim is the 'standard' as used on the '47 jeans. I also rechecked elsewhere (for sanity's sake) and the '22 jacket uses the same as the '33 jacket and '37 jeans. So the '22 jeans and the '27 jacket are matchy matchy on denim. The '22 jacket an outlier. Would be interested if there was any FW logic to this (other than the timing point)

That's what my post said mate... I have the '27 jacket too - it's the 'standard' denim. I don't have the '22 jeans (as you say released years ago) and for clarity can't say what denim they are. My earlier post could have inferred it was the same as the jacket (good spot Austin, thanks). That said, it seems a bit odd to have a '22 jacket that is different denim to the '22 jeans but it may well be true or not! Calling @Duke Mantee

I have the 22 jacket Shred and it's the same denim, as per FW, as the 37 jeans and 33 jacket that I have.

😲

1933 jacket... bought one-wash... and not washed by me yet... the lighting isn't great... the denim is darker and richer than it appears in the photos... slowly slowly developing character

^ '22 (jacket) and '37 jeans are the same denim developed specifically in recent years; 47 (jeans) denim is the FW 'standard' denim which is different Note, from the posts following later, that the '22 jeans are in 'standard' denim.

Just saw M11026 for sale, used in sz 38
