Anyone else have the problem with measuring their best fitting jeans as size 32; but find that with a measuring tape my waist is actually 34-35?

Should I be measuring my waist tightly with the measuring tape as fat has some give ;(

Does a high rise jean = a smaller waist size compared to a low rise?

more info on the hooded jacket plz ; ) and the other jacket. Are they both denim?

Hey folks, is it possible to replace a wool cuff on a n1 jacket if it has a hole and have it look exactly the same as original?

Can you darn the holes on the cuff like a pair of jeans?

Thanks

Well, as proof that I'm nothing if not consistent, both of my laces broke one-after-the-other this morning while tying up my boots. Any recommendations for good rawhide laces? This was the first time I'd tried them, and the extra give that they offered over the nylon cord or flat waxed cotton that I'm used to was very welcome, even if it resulted in a shorter lifetime. Is there much variation in quality from supplier to supplier? and, for future reference: Is there much that one can do to care for rawhide laces in order to help their longevity?

Bonus boot picture, while I'm here…maybe a year or a year and a half of wear on these so far:

Probally the best leather laces I own. Thickness is consistent and strong, also has a nice waxy soft touch.

Colour comparison. Possibly Tochigi leather on both wallets.

Interior of bifold

Card slots are skived not split

Stress points are reinforced and the threads sit nicely on top of the card slots.

Got another review up. This one is a passport holder / Field Notes cover, by Hides and Stitches.

Can I get info on the pen please   

Does anyone know if the kilim boots are resoleable.

The descriptions says the boots are good year welted but looks to be completely sealed over with natural crepe where the stitching is on the midsole.

Thanks

Damn  

Can't believe people still do this sort of stuff.

Can anyone verify if this is a legit website. They have a pair of Yuketen Maines for £100.96?

I use to wear my SDA 103s in the kitchen and wash them regularly.

It wasn't my brightest idea wearing $200+ denim in that kind of working environment. 

IMO everything just fades evenly and you don't get nice contrast fades from whiskers, stacks etc. 

Has anyone purchased from "Vision Store HK".

Does the website offer better prices for Visvim goods than stores outside of Japan. 

Why do they mainly stock 14 A/W stuff on their web shop?

Thanks

Anyone with Horween Colour 8 Chromexcel  leather who can verify if the flesh side is untreated/undyed (like natural veg tan); or if the dye, tanning process penetrates to the core and back.

Thanks
