The pocket bags on the 43s are awesome if I didn’t already have too many pairs of jeans I’d be looking into these

When brand new I honestly can’t tell much difference between the different denims. They all are just dark indigo to me. Ha once they’re really beat up and worn in is when I can really notice it though.

We need a photo of your FW jeans spread. Haha

wwii tux the denim really shines after some hard use

@beautiful_FrEaK that after a soak? @Double 0 Soul how are those 47s looking now? They got the terminator treatment right? Thrashed all to hell? Haha

Look forward to fit pics and how you style them. Which cut?

did some hand repairs. Not the prettiest.

did some hand repairs. Not pretty but was fun to try.

Yea going to try to Kapital/Sashiko style hand mend it since it’s not too bad yet. Might also hand sew the unraveling chai stitch hem

@MJF9 or might start using the Freewheelers type 1 for work abuse next

wwii jeans. Another crotch bites the dust….

Kind of thinking of trying some Kapital style sashiko repairs.

10 months of abuse on this. Due for some repairs or maybe retirement

wish we had a good local denim repair place in Seattle. Really don’t want to have to mail these to get the chainstitch hem re done

@Duke Mantee agreed. Granny may have something in the works @mstaxi never noticed that until you commented. Now I’m curious how many broken areas I have haha

@mstax sorry for confusion. I found my button on the floor of the porta potty at work. This morning I took my needle and thread and decided to sew it back on.

literally digging trenches for plumbing. Have to get to the old lead poured cast iron pipe and break it up with a sledge hammer. Shit is really heavy. we will replace with new pvc piping.
