@vgadjo, I keep coming back to this pic. Really love the color of that shirt!!  Any chance you are really sick of it and want to get rid of it?  Ha ha. I've googled for that shirt in that color and have come up empty.

I Still wear it quite often. One of my favourite. I think IH made a quite similar one lately.

UES, SDA, RW

UES extra heavy

Sda DM003

I like the texture of these sda. Very different from their usual denim.

My goto gear these days.

Just after a wash, around 14 months of wear, 4-5 wash. I have to repair the crotch asap.

Cheers

For those wondering how the DM003 denimio Collab ages, here are a couple pictures. They're slubbier than I expected. There's almost a PBJ feel to them. And I really like the cut.

My summer and winter jackets.

The bond jacket (also known as Rgt supply waxed jacket). Worn since 2015. I like to wear this one with iron rangers. It just becomes darker at crease points.

And the Iron heart 19LOD as the warmer winter jacket. Since last April. It shows a couple wear signs around the pockets. Often worn with black service boots.

Cheers

@tod Indeed, this is a structured toe box. They look like a sturdier version of the iron rangers.

From the oldest to the newest:

RW 877, resole once.

RW iron rangers, better vibram grip resole

Resole on Vibergs. 

I asked for commando soles for better grip and longer longevity.

Hey,

Got my RW repaired at our awesome cobbler in Montreal, Carinthia.

I asked for soles that are not flat as the original ones. Great work from a dedicated man.

Nice win!

I'm really fighting the urge to cop a new pair of SDA as my old pair are to small now. Seeing the  old/new comparison between the 15oz denim makes it even more tempting 

107 in 31 were a great fit for me originally but middle age spread means sizing up at least one and the measurements don't work as well in a 32. I may go 108 for more room in the top block, with the hem to a 30 leg the taper won't look so aggressive either.....

Worn in size 31 going cheap by the way......

Sadly I've had to retire my SDA  307 too.

I've spend some time on calisthenics for the past 2 years and well...no more room for the quads/harmstrings.

So I've just received and washed a pair of DM003, the Denimio collab. The fit is nice, much roomier in the thighs area for the same size tag.

XX-005 from September 2010 next to its successor the new PBE-019

Type: D1657 (now 307) 18.5oz raw

Worn for: 2.5+ years, probably 7-8 months of effective wear

Washes:  one around 7-8 months

Previous post here. 

First wash on these. They start to look a bit like my 103s.

Cheers!

Kind of my go-to combo these days. I really like how versatile the FH3002 is. The neck proctection feature on the PBJ hoodie comes handy with this nasty cold wind in Montreal. Not the best lighting though.

Hi,

I have spent quite some time on building calisthenics skills for the past 6 months (another kind of evo I guess).

It turns out it gives good results and as you may guess, some jeans, T-shirts, shirts and jackets are now almost unwearable (SG-5109 jeans and  pbj-6066 jacket for example).

So I was wondering what your approach was for some of you into calisthenics or body building. For the legs, there are some options: straight cuts or slim with large top block. But for the top, the waist does not get bigger. It may even shrink when getting rid of love handles. So you end up with wide shoulders, a large back that tapers into a thin waist (which is nice from an aesthetic POV but not so much when looking for shirts and jackets) .

For top pieces, do you size up even if the waist is going to be too wide? Do you buy raw and shrink 'carefully' to keep room in the shoulders area? Or are there labels I should consider for that matter.

I was mostly thinking about a denim jacket to replace the pbj one. IH seemed nice.

Thoughts? Experiences?

Thanks!

Heavy blues.

Some whiskers light evo on the 24-010.

Updates on the Pbj XX-005, Sam 710BH, Momo er007-2b and SG5109. See respective threads for details.

Next update should contain a post 1st wash for some Sda-307 and Pbj 24-010.

And I just joined the Flat Head club with a pair of 3002!

Cheers
