I keep giving Legion a look in but it gives me a headache 

Major shrinkage ! I keep reading about it but find little on intentionally doing it .

how would be the best way to approach it and how many sizes down can be achieved ?

Be nice to be able to try a pair on .

iv made some bad/costly online purchases in the last two years , I'm done ordering online .

Hi brains trust , I bought an old Art Deco dance hall a few years ago that I am going to move into soon as a residence and am looking for some insperation to remodel .

ATM it is built on three boundaries so I can't have Windows except on the front and on any additional floor that is added and skylights .

so would like recommendations for sites to look at .

cheers .

CYCLING TOURISTS  , now that I have you're attention , am going do do a cycling holiday late this year or early next year with my brother who is working in Tokyo who will take some time off . So what would be nice is not only some meal recommendations but maybe some drinking company and share some adventure stories . Anyway direction not known yet and could involve a train/ferry journey so am open to suggestions that I can correlate with what my brothers interested in doing as he will be on the ground and have a better lay of the land .

cheers and thanks for reading .

Hey Everyone,

I'm taking a trip to Japan in April, Tokyo-Kyoto-Osaka. Is there a particular samurai store that's best to visit? I was thinking of going to the kyoto store since it's close to my hotel but wasn't sure if there was a better one to check out along the way. Any recommendations would be appreciated! Also hoping the 20th anniversary S526XX are available by that time too to try them in person

This is something I'd be interested in knowing also as I'll be visiting my brother who will be doing a two year stint in Japan and while I'm there might as well take the plunge on some local denim that shipping and sizing has restricted me from buying in the past .

On Hamilton - I really like them. I prefer their khaki designs, especially the non date, over similar priced seikos. Yes it’s part of a bigger conglomerate - but that’s just the reality of the watch buisiness. At least they use their scale to deliver good value to customer (khaki models can be had retail for £250ish), other companies use the same scale to push up margins and pretend they make ‘luxury’. So overall good value I think.

I have the Hamilton khaki the date model that I use for work and travel as it has the 24 hour which is useful when traveling . My only gripe with it is that as the leather watchband has worn out an original replacement is pricing dearer than the initial watch price , I have found a guy in London that does a close replica that I'll purchase in the near future .

Here's one for you aho:

My dream model is the North Pole , has a compass instead of date .

So altered carbon drops tomorrow in my corporation zone and am super excited .

another one I'm waiting for is " electric dreams "

just finished " black mirror " and am both entertained and sceptical of the future .

When will the winners of the other categories be announced ?

So this happened , a ride from London to Marseille . 

So even though it's been announced I'm still having trouble finding info like are they button fly or zipper , boot leg , straight ,  and a fit picture as I'm not familiar with the 888 .

I'm not allowed to say anything just yet 

Can you at least say what ounce they will be as I'm in the market for a new pair and I'd hate to miss out on something if they were in the realms of what I'm looking for .

Will there be a heavier denim or just the 12oz , would pull the trigger for something around the 18/20oz .

I'm just curious how you think the last comp was not assesable to all ?

Just watched Mr robot and WOW , what a pay off who would have guessed who that German guy was and that his wife didn't give the game away !

The Brink is def worth the look in if you are interested in political satire .

Can I add Hornblower , IT crowd , outnumbered .

I think misfits is worth it regardless of the final two seasons , same as you forgive x files .

Just to change the pace mention a few that are not represented here yet

I'm two episodes into " The Brink " with Jack Black based on a stand off between the US and Pakistan and I'm hooked so far ,I just hope they can keep the momentum going .

Another is " Glitch " an Australian take on all those returned from the dead shows that seem to be flooding the box of late , iv watched season one in one sitting , be warned this one is a slow burn but hopefully setting up for a good season two .

If I lived somewhere like that I couldn't have moved away !

It's a shame , I'm loving what I received .

There was a lot of flak about this company , justified ( who knows ) but the underlining truth is that it filled a gap in the market that people were willing to throw money at hand over fist .

Maybe someone will fill this now open void in the marketplace or at the very least modify what they sell to benifit from someone else's loss .

Earlier this year I walked into a nudies store in melbourne " Paris end " , they had a great range .

George's Cary a dismal range of N&F .

Iv seen Edwin's on Chappel street .

Duffle , only because it looks like teachers jacket !

As a noob to denim my biggest regret is not so much the denim but my conviction to wear the super heavyweight in the HWDC , I whimped it and went with a middleweight .

Next time around ill commit to something heavy !.

Someone should enter a pair into the HWDC , if memory serves me correctly in Back to the future 2 they came to 2015 .
