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.

button is sewn back on my Neal chambray. @mlwdp I like these that they teased on IG for the show

had a button pop off my Neal chambray. Nice easy fix. Even for me. Ha

@tooth yea the rainfall effect is really cool with the wwii denim

my WWII jeans got another wash today.

time to hit up Hoosier for a replacement button for my Neal chambray… been wearing it for work and it must’ve popped off sometime this week

Filson denim vest. Runabout brander. Neal chambray. Somehow lost a button

I saw those photos. Also his worn in jeans and jacket look killer. im curious how the 1942 will differ from all the previous offerings. If it’ll be a new cut or strictly different buttons/rivets?

@AnOldFolkSong I was just curious. I’ve washed and dried all my pairs a lot and have zero rust. I was just curious if maybe they switched the types of buttons they were using. looks really cool. Wish mine would patina like that

@AnOldFolkSong how did you get your buttons so rusted?

@mstax you put Coca Cola in the wash with the jeans??

@AnOldFolkSong jeez. Those buttonholes are trashed. How did that happen? also interesting to see so much rust on yours and @mstax buttons.

@scooby those are incredible books. My grandparents had a few of them when I was growing up.

@scooby man those are rad! Need a comparison of those with the warehouse Lee pros

@Duke Mantee yes they try to instill the old school craft of soldering/brazing even though 80% of copper is done with press fittings these days. Gotta start with a solid foundation.

1937 photo dump. Really love how this denim has aged. Also interesting to see how the rivets patina in the areas they encounter sweat a lot.
