  1. jesus, do you drag your feet a lot?  Ive never seen that much wear in such short time/  Its generally advisable to avoid wearing through the sole and wearing into the midsole.  It wont mean imminent death for your boots but it'll just be a more costly repair further down the line.  I cant say if thats normal wear or not, but my gut tells me its premature.  I dont know if the sole is just a bad sole or not but it shouldnt be that worn after so few days.

  2. TCB denim does indeed stretch out.  How much depends on how snug they are.  My 50's generally fit a little snug right out of the wash but stretch out to a comfortable fit very quickly.  

  3. if Denimio stepped up the accuracy of their measurement charts I think I would do more business with them (and if they stared carrying Warehouse).  As it stands, they are totally 100% legit as I have ordered from them multiple times.  But I have always had to do my own research before ordering a specific size.  If I could go to the site, order with confidence that the size chart is 100% spot on I would be happier.  

  4. ok, the 3Sixteen indigo T I have, size L measures:

    Shoulder:  18.5"

    Pit to pit: 22"

    Back length:  24"

     

    So basically a square.

     

    The Costco brand white t's I wear daily and fit great measure:

    Shoulder:  18.5

    P2P: 20"

    Length: 27"

     

     

    Thats the ideal fit for me.  I can comfortably tuck in, or wear out.  

  5. True beauts...I'm on Yenni's list for Tanker on Plaza; I just need another pair in Black cordo and I think I'm set lol

     

    That said, I'm also on a list for Grant #8 Wingtips, and would throw down for a Plaza Indy or a calf straight tip/cap toe on Grant at a moment's notice.......

    haha unstoppable man.  

  6. And ...wait for it.... I could have just plain fucked up on the size.  Maybe if I adopted a hand wash only selvage wooden wash bin down by the crick  lifestyle things would have worked out with these 3Sixteen T's...Go figure right? :blink:

  7. I'm 6'1 and don't find 3sixteen boxy, like I said. Not sure what the Problem is here, I found them to be the less vintage fitting of all brands I tried. I know there are better garments out there and own a few of them, but bashing 3sixteen makes no sense at all looking at my personal experience with them.

    There is no problem. B) Im not bashing them.  I just found them to be underwhelming in both fit and fabric.    Personal observation that I am at liberty of having and sharing.   If I had my way, they would be about 2-3 inches longer in length.  Im pleased that you like them and will gladly make you an offer you cant refuse on the pair I have should you be interested.  Off the top of my head I cannot recall the size but I think they are a large?  I will double check this evening

  8. 3sixteen tees are no where near my fhs or even whitesville. In sorry but the most superior tres for me are fh , samurai , ues , whitesville and warehouse

    i agree.  I have a 2 pack of those 3Sixteen indigo tee's and I am so disappointed with them.   rough and scratchy fabric and a terrible short and boxy cut.  

  9. I use the Samurai soap, near boiling hot water, and if it has any stains I rub that area with soap or use bleach as a last resort.

     

    So far it's worked well for me! I do have to boil the water over a wooden stove and then get into my large wooden tub, though. Also, I take a bath once a month, and make all my clothes. 

    is the wood selvedge though?

  10. jesus christ, if I cant throw my t-shirts in the washer and dryer and count on it coming out the same size I wont bother with it haha.  You guys are getting meta on this t-shirt wash game.  I absolutely love the fit of an old loopwheeled IH t-shirt but the damn thing is way too thick.  The Strike Gold I have is good too, but I sized up one so I didnt have to baby the fucker when it came to washing.  It gets thrown in the washer dryer alongside the socks and boxers;  Biggest pet peeve as of late is the "vintage" boxy cut some t-shirts have.  Im not a lego or minecraft character haha
