The Alamo is a great shirt! Especially like the new red version. Don't know why the pocket flaps are designed that way, but they are very nerdy with their designs so I'm sure there's a thought behind it. Perhaps Neil can shed some light on it.

Let's see if you can stop yourself at "just" one jacket, haha. Either way, looking forward to loads of pics if you get your hands on one.

I'm a bit lazy and posting this 60's Lee 81-LJ here instead of the Lee-thread. Not at home at the moment so I only have a few detail pics. Will sort out more once I find the time.

Thanks Bartles, @Flash and @MJF9 I'll shoot some more pics in the appropriate thread. I have my good friends Jonas and Olof that run goteborgmanufaktur.se They also do repairs very well, both have studied textile production too. But I'm also thinking of doing it with old school sashiko repairs. We'll see what I do!

No fit pics for you Bartles, but at least a photo dump from the last wash.

Thanks for sharing Flash! First time I hear about it.

Beauties, Maynard! SDA never gets old.

Edit: Fail

Thanks Bartles! I'll see what I can do.

Weekend vibes! Here's a bombardment of booze and a bunch of scores. For about a week now GBG beerweek has been running here, basically loads of beer related events. Sadly I wrecked my budget last weekend, but we'll get to that in a minute. First I'd like to salute my favorite Swedish brewery that specializes in sour beers - Fermenterarna. The only event I went to this week was when they were in town. Definitely worth checking out if you can get ahold of it. I know https://glasbanken.se/ stocks some, though not sure if they ship anywhere else than the nordic countries. While talking about booze me and a friend kicked off a New England IPA two weeks ago. Looking yummie so far. And I tried some proper cider for probably the first time not too long ago. Expected it to be much better than the cheap shit that's usually about, but this was very tasty. Last weekend my good friends at https://goteborgmanufaktur.se/ was hosting a pop-up for a guy selling parts of his vintage collection and some nice stuff from Mister Freedom, Real McCoys, old Warehouse and White's. Apparently we had the same shoe size so I snagged a barely used pair of White's for a steal. Also picked up a pretty tattered Lee 81LJ from the 60's and an almost NOS Filson jacket from the 30's. It was not a healthy experience, haha.

For me it's because it's pretty apparent that Naoki loves denim very much and is so helpful and easy to do business with. Denimio is just a business from the get-go as far as I can remember; they saw a business opportunity with Japanese retail prices but fluent English customer service. It rubs me the wrong way.

Looks great man!

^ @tigerstrom have a pair!

Nice to see some worn Eternals, Chambo!

^ Yum! The gunpowder denim is pretty nice.
