whoa, I've never seen this fabric from FH. very cool. you're right...the wear on the thighs looks like there was a decent amount of wear but everything else looks like it was pretty unworn.

hey some of us here have hairless muffin tops. dont forget about us.

no while both are essentially straight cuts, they do fit differently. It's most noticeable in the top block where the 47 feels trimmer with more tapered waist. the 46 is a little more anti-fit in shape and has the obvious design quirks. the 46 fabric feels noticeably rougher and uneven than the 47 which is more uniform and has a smoother hand. I'm no expert in vintage but from what I've read and heard from sugar cane, the wartime fabrics were a little lighter in weight than the post war fabrics.

Warehouse can be confusing on the naming and knowing what fabrics are being used but I just took a look at the most recent line sheet and it looks like the DD-1001 1947 uses the no.7 x no.7 13.5oz tri-state US cotton and the 1001XX(1000XX) 1947 uses 7.5 x 7.5 pink selvedge denim which sounds like it should be the DSB. I'm not sure if that was different previously though.

yeah this denim seems like it'll fade with a decent amount of contrast. I'm already getting some lighter blues on the knees and backpackers. This belt is so beefy. it's the only belt I've had where the leather has not really stretched even though it's been my main belt for years.

I picked up the FN-D111. I really like the wider fit of these jeans and how they don’t run super small esp compared to flat head jeans a few years back. The denim is closer to the deep indigo color of the pioneer denim. It crocks a lot more than the jeans I’ve worn the last few years. I’ve only worn them a week but I’ll be washing them soon.

Smoking while doing that is also part of it https://www.instagram.com/reel/CzzcRm1hHtw/?igsh=MWQ1ZGUxMzBkMA==

yeah these are the 47s!

Just washed these imperials again after 2 months ish of wear. I’m really enjoying how this fabric ages and feels.

have Australian breakdancing jokes been over done yet? if not, here's my contribution If it's anything like breakdancing, I look forward to seeing what comes out of Australia.

the whole first year we spent thinking "there's no way we are doing this shit again. we've aged a million years and our body and spirit are beaten" and then somehow we forgot about all of that, had a second kid and during her first year where she had terrible sleep we kept going "was it this hard the first time around??". luckily my wife had taken good notes with figuring out schedules and we realized that our brains had buried that trauma deep down and tricked us into only remembering the cute moments.

Congrats! having kids is super easy. easiest thing I've done. you'll be back to normal life in no time.

I have the white version of those sneakers and they are seriously well made.

I’m contemplating getting a new pair of these Encinitas jeans. I’ve really enjoyed them. I’m not sure how much wear at this point.

eh he's basically a denim consultant for a bunch of brands who's very into himself. the article quotes him several times bragging about how he walks around and sees people wear stuff that he "made" which is really irritating to read. He does seem like he has a lot of knowledge about what makes a jean fit a certain way and what kind of traits in a denim will make the jean drape well so I'll give him that but otherwise, the world he operates in is mostly of little interest to me and he seems pretty insufferable. I imagine him to be the kind of person that overcomplicates things just for the sake of making himself seem like an expert.

now he wears a lot of Rick Owens so it's likely that he wears these sneakers too.

Congrats on the new gig. Good riddance to the old job.

oh wow that cap is cooked! looks great. mine still has a long way to go

They're def on the shorter side of what we are used to carrying but generally inseam length preferences have trended shorter and shorter the last few years especially as looser cuts became more popular so we've done quite well with the jeans. Many people have been able to just buy and walk out the store with them w/o needing a hem. We've actually sold through most of our initial delivery in a few months of carrying it so I think people have really embraced the shorter and looser style.

2ish month update. the fabric def fades on the faster side.

I found an unworn pair but the size was advertised wrong. It’ll be a few years before he can wear them.

My kids been wearing these made in USA Levi’s for a bit. They weren’t exactly unworn but they were quite dark when i first got them. These have become more expensive online and at shops but I’ve had some luck with people in the Midwest who don’t seem to care to do much research.

Got the shirt. 11oz cone with tonal stitching in size Large.

I got the 11oz cone mills one.

I got lucky and got the denim shirt while ignoring my kids at the playground 😅
