it says "image" its a a little tree inside of a picture just below the smiley face

I need to go run to borrow a good camera so that I can actually get a good representation.

My shitty Iphone doesnt want to take photos good enough

Will get what I have going on up after this upcoming week, I am ever busy since this year started.

I like the closet unit as much as I like what is in it.

Those PF Flyers are forcing me to choose between having food to eat this month or having some really nice new shoes.

I want to enter, as I haven't bee in a denim comp before, but... I don't know what to enter in yet. 

 

I have a couple of jeans in mind that I could wear in the comp, but undecided. 16oz? 25oz? For to wear the same pair year round, somewhere around 18-20oz would be ideal. It get cold in the winter and hot in the summer in the Rockies.

 

I'm seriously thinking about the tux, but I'd do a jacket instead of a shirt. I could commit to a jeans and a denim jacket for two years, but I'd have a hard time wearing just one shirt for that long. 

 

And, if I can get some boots sorted, I'd enter the boot division too. 

 

to be continued... 

Personally if its a matter of picking something with year-round comfort go with something between 15-18, just my vote.  I can't really press you to hard on that since I am submitting myself to another 2 years of Heavyweight after complaining that I would never do it again in the Florida weather.

Bailey Hunter is another dude who does really solid no frills american traditional style tattoos. I again wish some of these guys would visit Jax

I'm coming in once I get paid, I will be entering with some Old Blue co. 21/23 Heavyweight jeans.

It was my first choice honestly for HWDC2.  Do it and you won't be sad when you don't have them.

I usually start hand washing my jeans when they get weak or have some problems. 

@kiya or anyone

 

I need a reliable tailor that can taper my FH BSPs. They have to accept mailed-in denim since i live in FL. I got my BSPs hemmed a long time ago and now the leg opening is much wider than they were at the original inseam. 

 

thanks,

 I also have gone through your struggle but mine was mostly with repairs.

I am not making a lot of notable progress since school started but i am still fighting!

I wish Jacksonville got some good guests. I never see or hear of them or know if they are even a thing.

I watch Austin Maples stuff.  It is just a good bare bones traditional it has this really tough appeal to it, almost rigid

I just had this very same predicament hit me.

I just can't make myself wash my jacket. I don't get to wear it enough.

I have a general question for everyone else, does the session get worse the longer you go for yourself personally?  For example using my last tattoo: It was a 6 hour session and for the first 2 hours I was doing well it hurt of course but I could still shrug it off, up to hour 4 I was still relatively okay it was only truly bad over my ankle and near the back of my calf, everything after hour 4 I was sweating like a pig and my nerves were raw and I was on the verge of quitting.

The last man standing option is tempting anyways.

and with those years they will get even better as time goes on. Those look like the start of something good.

^^^ is this the result of weekend wear ?

Yes he stated he had 2 days a week wearing them

Gonna get another one more focused with some detail shots for HWDC but the color is true and the back is beat up.  Pretty proud of these as my first Year or longer pair of jeans.  Feet fades are 21 years no washes.

 

 with one added in, its been dark and dreary here so i had to do some inside shots.

Saints are what you guys are.  R.I.P. to that corner of my pockets.

Can the all incredible team at Darn-it repair the fabric lost at the corners of pockets over top of rivets?

I am planning on getting another inside this week or next. depends on when I have the time to devote 3 days to minimal walking
