I've always found Flower Mountain sneakers kinda interesting, but they just feel a bit busy for my tastes. Honestly they look better with some wear compared to the product photos.
-
Very cool! They’ve been releasing a lot of nice colorways recently. The 991v2 is super comfy.
-
I’ll try to measure the new one before and after a wash, the only experience I have with the midweight sweat fabric is the black one from last year with the pocket. I didn’t find that it shrunk more than any of my heavyweights.

@jkbrwn Japanese domestic price (minus tax) plus shipping. So depending on the current yen conversion rate it can fluctuate.

Just a few recent deliveries, first three from Hoosier and last one from Yahoo. Blystone. Gemsa. Trying to camouflage with my tile. Two-tone midweight sweat. Heavyweight sweat in straw cream, found BNWT on Yahoo.

No, no preorder details yet.

I think I'm going to try them out too, the singular back pocket on the right hand side is really going to mess with me. I'm left handed and keep my wallet in the back left pocket.

Happy birthday @Maynard Friedman, now let's see a birthday fit pic!
-
I just really don’t need any more jeans at the moment. Unless someone wants to buy one or two of my pairs.
-
I actually reached out to 2nd to possibly buy a pair of S2000HX, but then I thought better of it.
-
Got my flannel in as well as the catalog, really happy with the fit. I’ll try to get some fit pics at some point. Looks like they actually restocked the size 44 in a couple other colors so I might get another.

SUPERDENIM SMALL QUESTIONS THREAD (Use instead of making new threads)

@jkbrwn I’ve always wanted to try those out, I’d be interested in your thoughts once you get them in. I wear Birks a lot during the summer and these seem like they’d be a good change of pace. -

Totally agree, jjjjound is one of the worst culprits of this. Sure, some of the NB colorways they come up with are nice, but nothing is worth paying three or four times the retail price. With the way NB has been doing releases the last few years you’re more likely to find another very similar color (minus the branding, whatever will one do without it?!) on sale by the end of the season anyways. -

Broark replied to minya's topic in superdenim
It’s literally just different colorways and / or material combinations. The hype recently has been silly, especially with some of the collaborations. There was a recent pair of 993s they did with jjjjjound (idk if I got the right number of j’s or not but you get the idea) and for shits and giggles I jumped in the virtual queue when they were released. Evidently there were 78k people in front of me. I know that number isn’t likely real, a lot of people using bots to buy and resell but I still thought it was crazy to see for a show that doesn’t look that much different than a general release. FWIW I buy my pairs either at or below retail. Anyone paying resale prices for NB has a screw loose. -

Seconding New Balance, very comfortable and the made in US and UK models are pretty well made. Some of them get to be pretty hyped but can’t go wrong with the core grey or general releases. I find the 993 and 991 most comfortable, they’re supposedly bringing a bunch of 992 models out this year. -
I also picked up the Sunny Garden chore coat, the denim is very nice! I think they're going to make some late 1800's inspired pairs out of it this year.

100 times better than my 0 in the same amount of time.

Crap photos but I wore my pair yesterday playing golf at the oldest golf course in Texas (1899). Normally wouldn’t wear jeans on the course, but this is a casual 9 hole walking only muni course, no dress code and only $18. A few friends and I play here every month or so. Fun way to spend an afternoon.

I placed an order recently, I'll let y'all know if I receive a catalog with it.
-
@beautiful_FrEaK you know I'm cycling through every single one them in this two month span of cold weather.

Joining in on the Texas snow, we didn't get it nearly as bad as Houston. Thinking I might actually end up wearing these uncuffed.
