A week in Sarajevo… incoming double post… do look away if it’s too many pics! Such a wondeful vibrant place, steeped in good and bad history… sure the multi-religions, multi-ethnicities, multi-cultures would have lived, and live, much more harmoniously if it wasn’t for toxic politics that sadly persists everywhere today Our digs right next to the Latin Bridge Bullet holes on the walls from the 1993-95 war and Seige of Sarajevo, lasting 1,425 days The old town It wasn’t me! It was to prove denim was involved… the site where Gavrilo Princip shot Franz Ferdinand which kicked off WW1

Rockets look great. On the WW model, at least, they come in with much lower front and back rises that other repro brands such as FW, Connors which is a consideration.

Word of Mouth worth considering... perchance a 30s cut (repeat of rpo above! catching up)

Oh really... I thought unboxing was taking over from boxing

@Signet calling Ed...

Good to hear @Jeef1... any pics to bring it to life for us? Cheers

Greetings from Mount Trebevic, Sarajevo Sweltering hot here, glad of the cooler mountain respite Star of Hollywood / Freewheelers / Buckweat

@cultpop 0217 loving the trademark eclectic flourish... including the one turn-up with the one turn-down

@beautiful_FrEaK excellent, factual and balanced review 👏

It was a lost weekend in a hut in Hathersage, luckily not double pneumonia in a single room… A top escape for me and the lad in the Peak district Walking in the great outdoors, staring into meadows while drinking morning coffee, making friends with the sons of stags, listening to streams trickling, swimming in the local lido, sticking to a caveman diet of meat, fruit and veg and chilling away from it all Walked up Stanage Edge and Bamford Edge. At one point, I thought I heard a rumbling down below as if someone was in the drains and then a cool bike flashed past… we were deep in OO Soul country so who knows if it was him or not… Importantly there was denim on the trip… tatsunosuke military trousers and Freewheelers 1930s set-up

@Geeman Congratulations!!! About time too

@beautiful_FrEaK thanks and great finds! I'd like one of those jackets. I hope someone on Sufu snaps them up.

^ deffo really nice jeans mate... your tip off was tip top! 👍

^ Thanks @indigoeagle. I only have the FW 37s. The most obvious to me is the lower front and back rises; around 1-2cm shorter FR and 3cm BR. The thigh and leg width are similar - if anything, the Denime is a touch bigger. The Denime denim feels smoother. I haven't done a side-by-side comparison though and would expect there to be slightly different features... will try do that at some point. The sizing of the Denime is much smaller. The Denime's are a W36, the FW are a W34 and the FW are still bigger in the waist and hips.

Tender / Denime 1937s / Tezomeya / @Duke Mantee / TSPTR x S&S It's since occurred to me today's set-up is fully Sufu-enabled!!! I'll stop short of a full shout-out... for fear of coming over all Instagrammmmm... but many thanks!!

Denime 10th anniversary 1937 pics (from c1998) Just back from a hem-job... big thank you for a top job and service from @Mr Black With nicely patina-ing belt from @Duke Mantee Interestingly, the belt loops are very lightweight denim compared to the jeans themselves... similar to the TCB 20s but even lighter Spot the difference! Original hem v new hem

@smoothsailor Love it! Two (cool) peas in a pod

^ cheers @Dr_Heech! Haha yes I'll give the 22 an outing when the season starts and see if anyone bats an eyelid. They might raise an eyebrow if they see that FW wabash again

Freewheelers 1922 jacket, 1937 jeans (same denim, different wear) / Anatomica Big Yank / @Duke Mantee / Russell Moccasins

@bartlebyyphonics top fit on the tux... can't help but love a crispy new tux... looks great, especially reppin' that big jacket pocket

^ I've seen the Clutch guys handwashing a rayon Sun Surf and seemingly promoting this. Personally I'm aligned to tooth and wouldn't risk it. Dry clean all the way

Ahhh well I wore it today coincidentally and could post it but have hardly worn it so nothing to see lads. I've been wearing the 33 jacket instead which is the same denim (as the 37 jeans as well) and, I find, a tough fader... bit worth the effort. I'll get some pics of that up instead as an alternative if that's ok? It's nice to have the 22 as a dark 'smart' denim jacket

Looking good Doc... Just saved them and edited by clipping then... voila, right way up (I hope!)

You can tell it's sunny and warm in the UK... wash weekend! Post wash... The same pair pre-wash and with barely worn M41001 (no patch model)
