Should I buy a pair of 14oz IH 777s locally to support small business, or am I duplicating the Stevenson 727s I already have?

Measurements look quite similar, so looking for real world experience if possible.

Too soon

When I was in Berlin in October, I fell in love with the repro Lee Storm Rider they carry at 14OZ. I guess it's made in Italy? Anyone have any experience with this one? 

I had a Storm Rider growing up for bush parties / dirtbiking, and kind of miss it. At the time I was in Berlin, not CDN500 worth of missing it, though. Kind of regret not getting it.

Dude needed a fit check. Could and should have sized down at least one.

Ugh... so terrible. Does anyone know if any resolution ever came about after DC4 got robbed? They just closed up shop right?

I was at DC4 at the beginning of October and they're very much in business. And, the fine gentleman who owns the place sent us off for beers around the corner while he hemmed my Onis. 

By far the best denim buying experience I've had. What a lovely guy.

Yeah - water resistance typically isn't very high. My new Stowa has a push in crown, so I'm keeping it away from water. My IWC 3706 has a screw-in crown, but it's 17 years old, so I'm also keeping it away from water.

I'd feel comfortable swimming in any modern watch with a screw down crown, pilots included, and any modern dive watch with a push in crown (like the Rado Captain Cook).

I was in SENY a couple of weeks ago in shorts and Vans and made a joke that I had grown out of the need to wear denim and work boots every day of the year to be cool.

Then I noticed what the guys were wearing...

Anyway, it will be great when they pick up Warehouse. Hopefully by then I'll be a legit 36 in 900s, not stuck between that and 38. Hopefully we've finished our feud by then.

Is 39" the average waist measurement of the 36s, or is that an outlier? 

I was hoping to grab these to celebrate my weight loss, but CDN500 for 34s, which may or may not fit, is probably a bad idea. 

I don't know what to do. 36" is too big, but I worry the 34" is going to be too small. 

The only way I'm wearing something that big is if I become NWA World Heavyweight Champion.

WHOOOOOOO!!!!

@Broark - do you have any other pairs with the belt wear on the fly? I've got it on my Warehouse 900s, but nothing else. Weird phenomenon...

As you can see, no unusual wear. Just bad luck. Thankfully Dutil is offering free repairs on Monday!

No - that's the weird thing. No signs of a blowout and not tight at all around the groinal region. Just bad luck, I guess. I'll post a shot if I ever get finished with this project I'm shooting, which has grown from one Canadian city to 4 across three provinces.

My Warehouse 900s were supposed to be my jeans for a week away, filming, but when I went to pull them on, found that they'd completely undone themselves right where the front, back and inner leg seams meet. 

I've never had that happen with a pair before, and needless to say, I'm not super happy about it. What a waste of $300.

Just washed 900s. Not sure how much I’ve worn or washed them. Not a lot. 

I think I managed to get the blue/black nature of the denim. At least in person I can see it. It’s taken a lot of wear, though. 

Washed my Aizumis again. Roping shot.
