Not today but recent trip to Johannesburg... A few pics of the Anglo American (think gold, diamonds, precious metals, De Beers) buildings in Main Street, Johannesburg centre of the old CBD... now minor part last century corporate colonial splendour, major part modern run down inner city depravation. The Stampede or The Impala Fountain by Herman Wald, in bronze, stands out... "The Stampede was my first impression in this country, nature’s most graceful charge that competes with any man-made efforts, unconditionally acclaimed by child or adult, by amateur or connoisseur, unbound by time, fashion or ‘isms’." Fascinating country that gets more fascinating over time as stories unfold And the Jo'burg winter sky never disappoints...

Bump!!! I got this Tender hand-thrown blue hadal zone cutaway sgraffito coffee mug just before William closed the UK operations Seems to change colour in the light from deep blue through what looks brown to me It's really nice

For Mirrorball, they are good on Instagram or email - [email protected] The go-to for many of us here is Hoosier who you can transact with through Instagram Both will take PayPal Both ship internationally Good luck!

@Broark wow... congratulations mate... that's great news!!

The racism makes that party fit only for the bin and never office imo...

Seems like the little denim devil in your head might want another 😉

^ not from a social standpoint, though the UK is a mess there too. I read that Le Pen is winning an alarming share of the vote for the party previously called the National Front... basically racists... sad days... hopefully the right way prevails Anyway best get back to denim eh!!!

It ended up costing me all in £288 which I'd like to recoup but please DM me if interested and we can have a chat.

Alas the Ooe type 2 did not work out The measurements on the actual jacket were significantly less those quoted by the seller - hence it doesn't fit me. Yahoo seller said shoulder 53.5 cm - it's 4cm less. And chest is 2cm less than quoted. Annoying but you pay your money and take your chances. Lovely jacket though!!! And it is now up for grabs. I'll post it on the sales thread and it's up on Grailed - however do DM me to discuss costs!! There is a write up on it here Actual sizing (it looks like it's been washed already, tagged as 44) Pit to Pit - 59.5cm Shoulders to seams - 49.5cm Arm outside - 59.5cm Length 58.6cm

^ sadly Sunak and Starmer are two cheeks of the same arse! You're right, let's stop there and stick to denim

@mlwdp the purpose of those buttons came up in the Unknown Japanese Brands thread for similar Bronson t-shirts I got (I know... someone (me) posted in the wrong thread while all 3 mods just let it slide... I know)... apparently they were used for hanging the t-shirts out to dry... mine came with some string for that purpose... did you get strings with this?

^ I might fill the void after this terrible England performance at the Euros!!!

Freewheelers x 3 / Viberg

Continuing from above... I heard from @Double 0 Soul... he's doing well... albeit 'elbows deep' in house renovations and work which has left him zero time for online socialising... I think that means we can expect he'll have a few stories (and pics) to share when he returns...

@Broark a nice play on Hokusai's The Great Wave Off Kanagawa

@Flash good to see you posting again... Connors looking sweet mate @srudy that's ridiculous! What's their excuse if you don't mind?

@shredwin_206 only very quickly tried them on and they're a good 'proper' length. Nice shorts... happy with them. Double pockets each side so plenty of places to lose stuff!! The sizing is a bit smaller than normal - I'm usually W34 but picked a W36 as I prefer shorts bigger anyhow, plus they have fastener buttons to bring them in. Here's a link with some deets and pics mate. I'll try get some photos up soon - though how much leg I show is not clear at this stage . Oh and I saw Hoosier posted measurements on IG too so check that out too pal.

A few Freewheelers (Ironalls chambray and Lot 102, Chopper Builder shorts) and a Star of Hollywood arrived today from our man Seiichiro

So... after a tip-off from our very own Mr Denime (thank you @beautiful_FrEaK), these 10th Anniversary Orrizonti era in a 1937 style cut landed Some rough and ready fit pics First pics are raw; second after a cold machine wash, a 30C machine wash and after wearing today I'll post measurements later for those interested. The rise is definitely lower than I usually go for but they're growing on me. I'll need to see @Mr Black for a hem soon

@Dr_Heech boom! Did you go OW or raw? Looking forward to the fit pics when they come round

^ yessss to the 22s... nooooo to the chopping... yessss to get some suspenders mate (apparently there's a talented bloke on this forum that could even make 'em!)

Haha I'm done mate!
