a now-defunct new york shop that also sells things like shoes like pottery and arpenteur used to carry a lot of phigvel stuff, even did pre-order for the engineer boots. from which i discovered they make the best... key holder  (which i've since lost zzz). can't for the life of me remember the name of the shop, anyone?

Hickorees!

That's the one thing that puts me off on a lot of FWs trousers, a lot of them just have too much going on.
Here are the ones in question.

LSM can get a bit busy with the pockets but this particular iteration has plain fabric (i.e. no patterns, or at least obvious ones), so the pockets will blend a bit better. On the wabash LSM, the wabash fabric on the side pocket on the right is sewn horizontally rather than vertically, as are the pockets!

I am not sure how easy it is to find them but I know FW has done plainer looking trousers in the past.

2 (exc coin pocket) front, 2 back and 1 on the leg - just the normal amount @Broark

Exactly! I used to own a Lead Sled Overalls. That has ginormous amount of pockets

General consensus on the Longshoreman trousers?
Found a pair from 2017 I’m interested in, navy duck canvas. 
Only photos I found on here were from @JDelage with his denim version. 
I’m sure you have a pair tucked away somewhere @Duke Mantee?

I have a pair of the classic wabash twill (correct me if I am using the wrong terminology here). I absolutely love it. It's a bit loud because of the wabash stripes, but the fit is flattering. Pretty straight like the Duke said, but enough room for me to work in or even do some climbing in. I prefer the fit of the Longshoreman over the Trackwalker Overalls that I also have.

I don't know if you can find the right ingredients, but Malay/ Indonesian style jackfruit stew is the bomb!

Description taken from the website:
West coast Shirts are released from the Basic Collection.
Westcost Shirts with a lot of bad atmosphere in line with the theme of Urban Outseders from Mid Summer.
This time, I used a print flannel fabric with a 100% cotton native pattern printed on it.
By daringly tailoring the native print pattern with a box silhouette, it has become an unprecedented 50s STYLE shirt.
The button is a thick shell button.
The lining of the yoke is made of cupra material, which does not easily generate static electricity.
It expresses the taste of a basic 50's shirt with a collar bag sewing, which is a feature of the 50's, a box silhouette in the flap pocket, and an open color.
When it comes to box shirts, the arms are wide and the silhouette is square, which gives the impression that it is difficult to wear, so we have corrected it so that you can wear it neatly.
It is a shirt that can be worn widely regardless of pants, but it is especially recommended for denim lovers who have a high denim wearing rate.

I’m 27JP in the Coupen, 9 in Whites and 9.5 in John Lofgren - the Coupen is the same length but a little narrower

@cungster I'm a 10 in Lofgrens and I'd say 10 is the best size on the Coupen last. I can also do a 9,5 which is good lengthwise but a little slim. Rule of thumb is go for your UK size but in US if that makes sense. Eastwest carry the Coupens and have very extensive size comparison. Also, if you're buying from there Janie is extremely helpful and generally just a nice guy. 

Also, I'm think I'm a 10,5-11 in Red Wing (US) if I remember correctly.

Thanks a lot folks. That is to say, if I am US7 on White's, I am likely to be 25 on Coupen, based on these numbers.

Hi guys, 

I am just wondering what's the sizing advice for RDT Coupens, say when compared to White's or Lone Wolf or Red Wing?

Sugar Cane Okis in South Africa!

They are size 36, pretty much my standard pants size for most brands. The inseam is a little short but perfect for me. There is a size chart and some detailed pictures for them HERE. 

This pair is a relatively heavyweight moleskin with a herringbone pattern printed on but there are two other color options this season in a different fabric. Really cool pair of pants IMO, as soon as I tried them on I knew I had to get them. 

I have always wanted to get a pair but it always seems like they have strangely low rise for FW. I love the printed moleskin but it probaly will be too warm for where I live. I really dig the buttoned hem, always thought that the details were so cool.

How do you size for the Aviators and how thick are the materials? I hope you don’t mind me asking.

Here’s it being worn 3 months back when I was in South Africa, doing some climbing.

One of my favorite fabric and cut.

Nice to see another boulderer fading denims on the crag.

Cheers Broark! Lovely fit too!

Nice pick up Broark. May I know what search term did you use for Ooe products?

Stevenson shirt

(unseen: Stevenson 747)

Hi @chicote and the rest,

Thanks a lot for a really meaningful answer. Looks like 727 is out of the picture.

I am looking for something not too tapered and maybe not too low in the rise. So maybe 767 or 737...

Hi everyone,

What are the cuts from Stevenson Overall like? Mainly looking at 727, 737, 747 and 767. Looking into something not too slim or tapered. I wear jeans mainly with workwear inspired outfits or just t-shirt and boots.

Amazing view!

I sized the Carpenters the same as I sized my Red Wing and I found that Carpenters have a tad more volume than Red Wing.

That's an awesome gym pic. I work as a setter myself and our gym is looking into expanding in a new location. I'd love to have a wall like that to play with.

Is it possible to request for no suspender buttons? If so... I am very much intrigued.

Didn't realise you are a climber too! Cool stuff.

Exactly my sentiment too, chicote. Now I appreciate the subtlety of his work, makes me consider to get a pair of his or maybe other one man brands out there.
