How do folks size Yuketen mocs? Been interested in a pair for a while & found a slew on sale @ https://www.mytheresa.com/en-us/men/sale/shoes.html?designer=8118

I think I’m pretty close to an 11 on a Brannock device, but I’ve never had anything bigger than a 10.5 that feels like it fits me well, so there’s that. I normally wear pretty thick socks, but prob. wouldn’t want to with moccasins. Not sure between a 10 and an 11—leaning towards 10

I bought a pair of boating moc from eBay ( new never worn ) I’m an 9 and bought 9 and l should have sized up one .

Hello boot lovers I'm sorry I have only just posted this now but iv only just stumbled on it myself but if anyone has ever wanted boot trees but never did because of the cost do yourself a favour and check out "Woodlore" The Boss boot trees they are reasonably priced at $50.00 US but for the next few days they have a two for one offer and that extends to normal shoe trees as well .

anyhoo happy stomping .

Dude, file a complaint with the attorney general’s office in his state. If you haven’t received anything in 2 yrs your money is as good as gone. I went through the exact same BS when Lawless Denim took everyone for a ride, but I at least got my money back after the Arizona AG got involved. Took almost 2 yrs to see that refund too. 

I think I was very lucky to get my lawless order 2xjeans and a jacket , it's a shame they went the way of the dodo because they were are great jeans , I wore one pair till they were ripped to shreds .

however I got ripped by the Soso bros and they are still in business and won't answer mails , jokes on them though as I travel a lot and I'll visit their store and get my jeans with interest .

Anyway I'd visit him and educate him street style !

As the title suggests I'm trying to find out what happened to the Australian bootmakers known as " Belmore bootmakers ".

i started out looking for a local boot builder and found what I liked but only seem to have vanished without a trace other that some sweet pictures that wet the appetite .

This is probably not appropriate but I have mailed so so brothers many a time and had no response but I purchased some 21 oz denim on one of their kick starters and its been maybe two years or longer and Iv still not got my jeans or a reply so your second sponsor is dubious .

Thanks red dragon ! Exactly what I'm looking for , they have the chukkas I'm after as well and if they aren't in stock l can at least try others on to get my fit .

cheers 

Thanks for the link mpukas but it is an online store , what I'd like to do is try some on for sizeing , iv seen too many mixed opinions on sizeing down/up or staying true to size .

where I live it's a $100.00 exercise if you need to exchange so while I'm already going to Japan I'll scope out stores there .

My brother is living in Tokyo and I'll be visiting him soon .

Iv a question and I guess this is as good a place to ask .

ill be traveling to Tokyo soon and are after some Russell moccasin slip ons and chukkas, is there someone in Tokyo that has some inside knowledge as to who stocks them ?

cheers

Just finished " killing Eve " and enjoyed it .

norsemen is a great laugh if you like a bit of historical comedy in the vein of Monty Python only a bit more realistic .

I'm not. Sure what disturbes me more the look or the price .

Great read and very informative .

im surprised others that have visited Japan on a denim / boots pilgrimage haven't added to the content with their trip .

ill be going next year , would you mind if I added my pictures and experiences ? At this stage I'm not sure what I'll get but what Iv seen of your trip I'm now added some want items and I'll be researching my ass off before I go .

l think you're keeper buckle and belt is a Grail item ! I love those PJ,s .

not a fan of the denim cuts , still you're a master of you're craft and it shows with the passion you inject to you're product .

@Foxy2 what is the price may I ask ?

@Foxy2 what is the price may I ask ?

Yep Aussie dollars . Kicking myself because when I got home I accadently hit sellers other items and I should have made a group buy , he had Real McCoy sweat tops and Helfingerblazer all in my size , anyhoo if it's still up next month I'll buy them .

Nice ! Went into Melbourne myself on Saturday night to buy a N1 deck jacket Real McCoy of course $450 , told it had about 20 wears .

very pleased with purchase !

Thanks Jake , I found it not long after posting and am going in another direction .

Winter is here in my consumer region and I'm in diar need of a better casual jacket , after some initial research I desired the ironheart N 1 but when I went to their site to order one every colour was extinct bar the grey and as only lesbians serial killers and ravers wear shines grey I'm looking at alternatives , as my motorbike leather jacket is alpaca lined and I love how warm and toasty  it keeps me I would like to stick to that lining material and my first choice is brown but I'll have to settle for blue in another brand as no one else is doing brown or alpaca .

So as an alternative I'm torn between the Pike Brothers or Eat Dust ,anyone ?

WANTED ripcord N1 jacket in brown size medium .

Feel free to mail me or share link to item advertised .

Cheers 

No longer required ! Purchased an Real Mccoys , not the colour I wanted but I needed something now to keep out the winter chill .

cheers

I really dig this jacket. Whale cord on the outside and sherpa on the inside. Doesn't get much better than this imo

edit: well, it's not denim but still a nice jacket

I have a denim jacket but I just don't find it kunfy particularly if I'm only wearing a tee underneath and was thinking of getting a cord or duck trucker . I love this blue cord , it looks good on you're frame .

im bummed no one here stocks anything like that , even Levis don't stock Sherpa here .

ok edit , I see someone mentioned it's a model , of cause it looks good on them .

can someone name the jacket / store , thanks .

Just watched the season two final and I'm not surprised , I never warmed to the lead so I'm glad it's gone in this direction .

Sorry you are right it is circle a brand and the material is unsanforised .

so Would it be more beneficial to boil jeans over just a hot wash . I don't have a drier so I'll have to spend an afternoon at the laundrymatt with a fist full of dollars .

cheers and thanks for the advice .

It depends on the denim and brand, whether is sanforised or not. You need to list some examples to get a definitive answer.

 

Well ok then , two years ago I ordered some wasab denim jeans from " The circle brand " was advised on a size and while I got dicked around waiting for said special order I lost weight and for some unfathanable reason the size I was sent is exesivly large so after corraspondance with maker about size problem and build issues I sent them back only to get the same pair back again so now I'm done trying to get my size , Iv two choices selling them on and copping a loss or a successful shrink .

Anyone seen " counterpart " looks like a grown ups fringe .
