  1. I have a dubbleworks tee in L and while the weight is good, the length is still a bit too short.

    What's the verdict on deluxeware? Hardly see anyone post about their stuff and the sizing seems pretty good.

    The number that scares me with the Deluxeware tees is the shoulders. They tend to be quite narrow. I've handled a few other items from them, and the quality is fantastic. For such a prolific brand, I've wondered why no Western retailers have stocked them.

  2. As a lab, your dog is probably thinking "I'm going to make these jeans even hairier! Along with every single square inch of the rest of your world!"

     

    Kidding (kinda). I grew up with 4 of those hair factories. I don't wear much black in my life, and I honestly think it traces back to avoiding it in my youth due to having a yellow lab.

  3. This pic kinda sums up my struggles to fit into many Japanese brands. Ben, the sizes you have mentioned purchasing are way small for me, yet you look like Dwayne Johnson next to Kobayashi-san!

  4. I woke up to a long list of historical negs as well.... I think the dude's moderate to severe psoriasis is all flared up, and some hottie gave him a disapproving look at the Whole Foods salad bar. Blowing off some steam is understandable.

  5. Unfortunately, my office uses "jeans days" as an incentive during United Way giving time, or when there is a reason to celebrate. "Buy up to 8 JEANS DAYS for $10/per, and be entered into a drawing for great prizes, including ADDITIONAL JEANS DAYS!" "Let's celebrate the kick-off to another successful season of Cardinals baseball by wearing your favorite red shirt and JEANS!!! (Make sure you have your manager's approval first.)"

     

    People (especially the ladies) lose their fucking minds over the chance to put on their too-tight Old Navys. "Don't forget to wear jeans tomorrow!" text messages at night are pretty normal. The intense heartbreak you witness when someone rolls in with their power suit, only to realize that they forgot to wear their jeans. Be ready to spend all morning responding to "OMG, that sucks that you forget your jeans. Maybe you can run back home???" "There's a Macy's close by, and I think they're having a one-day sale." "I might have another pair in my car, but I think their missing a button."

     

    Anyway, jeans have become a more evident motivator than merit raises. So, I'm pretty confident they won't be allowing a free-for-all anytime soon. My 401k is decent though, so there's that...

  6. I'd say that in this type of forum, the single pocket look is polarizing. Some hate it; some love it. In the real-life world, it's not so polarizing, because 99.99% of the people you encounter will think it's absolutely terrible. Which is the exact reason (given that you like the look) to say "Fuck 'em all!", and rock that shit all over town, making parents nervous, and ladies faint.

  7. So are the flannel colorways this season yellow/black, light blue/black and red/black?  Those are the only three I've seen for pre-order on 2nd.  If so how boring those are all repeats.

     

    The yellow isn't a repeat, as far as I know.  Over the last few years, they have done a mustard version several times, but this is a MUCH brighter yellow color. The mustard color that they do is really nice.  This one...not quite sure about.

  8. Why you got 2 pairs,?

    Why do I have too many of everything is the real question. And that's for the denim psychiatrists to hash out. But seriously, there's no reasonable answer. They are from different years, and I bought them both.

  9. Not really sure what FH is doing with their 46 tees.  I had a few of those as well, and couldn't believe how long they were.  While the width steps consistently from 44 to 46, the length jumps a ridiculous amount. It's like they are custom made for Dwight Howard or something...

  10. I have 2 pair of Fullcount's annual WW2 models for sale.  Both Size 33.  Both one-wash versions.  Both new with tags!  Hit me up!

  11. Broark, the 46 in Flat Head is plenty generous in the shoulders and chest, but still slims through the midsection, if that's a concern. Have you looked at the size 44-Regular models at all?
