DO IT!

You will not find voices of reason on this forum Broark i'm afraid

Er i'd be more worried about the shops comment that these jeans are not built to withstand pressure of sitting on floor to put on shoes? wtf.

Are you a TSB customer?! 

haha thankfully not. Although that was bound to happen sooner or later to a bank, most banks IT is so out of date it's unreal

ha yea. It is a complete clash of worlds. Find it quite interesting. Although I suppose some of the local residents who have lived there for decades might not see it that way

Also @Geeman nice pics! Lucky guy on another Tokyo trip so soon after the last one!

I was in Peckham couple weeks back, and like you I found the extremes amusing. Walking down the high street of Rye Lane is what I knew/expect of inner city london, and then turning into Blenheim Grove (road with Peckham Rye station I think) is like stepping into another world almost. Going from chicken shops, betting shops, grocers, fishmongers, and small afro carribean shops to craft beer brewery, sour dough bakery, upmarket burger place, and trendy bars from one road to the next was just unreal.

The first glimpse into the future of Peckham

And it's a pitty that since 2 weeks I can't leave a positive rep since I always get the following alert:

 

"Sorry, there was a problem reacting to this content."

Really no idea, what's going wrong here on superfuture.

It is a bug from an update to the forum. They are trying to fix it.

Got my A2. What a jacket! Top notch construction with a stunning lining. It is not too thick or heavy which is exactly what I wanted. Might be a tad on the small side, but I think it's good enough. 40 might have been slightly large.

I'll try take pictures on the weekend

Yeah what’s up with the rep?? I felt bad no one liked my new boots... lol

been broke for about 2 weeks since an update. Seems they are progressively throwing more techpower at it to try to fix it

Congrats BF!

Their fit is not standardised. It varies from shirt to shirt. If you are a size 2 in one shirt piece, you might not neccessarily be the same size in another shirt piece.

I haven't soaked my LVC pairs yet. Was going to do it in the summer, but probably will hold off until i'm ready to wear them

wow only for £50? nice pickup chambo!

Looks great Volvo!

I've ordered an A2 in size 38. Hopefully I have sized it right!

i wear size 40 in flat head t-shirts. The leather seems quite thick and i don't want to wear it baggier/roomier like they did in decades past. 

cool thanks. I'm same height so length would work for me. I'm like 40 lbs lighter though.

I don't have (or have never tried on) flat head or mccoys jackets. My high large leathers is size 38 and maybe slightly on small side, but obviously all brands size differently. I'll just go for the size 38. I plan to wear it with t-shirt or light shirts anyway. 

What leather jacket have you got coming in? Or is that a secret until it arrives

Buzz Rickson A-2 "rough wear" repro!

 

Hey Ben, did you buy this or just try it on?

I'm thinking of getting a brown leather A2 myself. Think size 38 would be correct, but measurements at rakuten stores is all over the place. What height are you? As the length of that jacket looks perfect for you

yup i'll be 40c machine washing my pair. Won't make same mistake of just soak like I did with my 710bkb.

Confirmed confirmed that sashiko bomber jacket is INSANE!

Right so this is measurements BIG style for Orslow 107 in size 2. Bare in mind I have worn these for a month or so, so i'm pretty sure waist has stretched.

Waist: 32.6in
FR: 10.4in
BR: 14in
U.thigh: 11.2in
Knee: 8.5in
LO: 7.1in

Do those cheap jeans use natural indigo or synthetic indigo?

The Full Count 1994 are surprisingly cheap for a Natural Indigo jeans though

yea that's what I thought also. It says on that page because they used natural indigo from India rather than japan, but I thought lot of indigofera plant is grown in places like India anyway?

Anyone have BiG measurements for a pair of 107 in size 2? 

I'll get you them tomorrow after work (that's if no one else has managed to do it before I do)

I wonder that myself haha. The past year has been a bit mad with the number of pairs that I have bought, but doing it while I can.

I am a perpetual rotator. I can't wear the same pair every day for months, as I get bored quickly. I wear what I want when I fancy it.

Quick pic of my Kuro2 jeans. Really like the look of them at moment. The black is now a dull black with subtle vertical streaks of indigo along the front.
