Thanks_M8

^the hip flair will probably also settle with wear. If you put your wallet and your daily carries in your pockets it will probably also sort itself out.

^ you pick an unworn pair from your stash for the contest.

Think at the end of the contest the stitching on the jeans will be allhappy handmade...

Anyways, made some pizza and bread again lately, got a new record, walked the dog and so on.

Good start in the new year

If Roy and tender wouldn't work, how about pherrows? They offer a variety of fits in a great denim, that ages beautiful. Also affordable for everyone, last time I checked they were <200€ on denimio.

Seems like rodeo uncle is still around. Prices seem ok, plus nice arcs and tab.

Happy holidays!

Even though the rainbow canes would be great, I think getting a pair is near impossible. They've been out of production since 2007 or so.

@Double 0 Soul yeah the same thing as with the sawdust happened to me with soot from a fire prevention site I worked at a few weeks ago. Spin cycle is correct, I never bother turning it off as I usually turn them inside out and get nice marbling from it.

Forgot to turn them inside out for the wash. Well, at least it's super crinkly now.

Been to the zkm in karlsruhe yesterday, the exhibit “writing the history of the future“ is still on and is free. Just a “few“ impressions.

How do chippewas compare to red wings in terms if sizing?

Current state

Some patch and yoke-stagger evo, freshly washed.

Finally getting some serious leg twist

As @Maynard Friedman said, SDA 10- range should be great! Maybe even get it along with PSA? 

^great shoes! Really into those as well lately.

Btw I'm looking too sell a few pairs of shoes, worn a little.

-Wesco John Henry lace2toe in olive burlap leather, IH-collab, worn about 30 times, US8 (https://www.ironheartamerica.com/extinct/ihtb-jhc.html)

- Rancourt moccassin boots with mudguard in black cxl leather. The sole came off, so I had a new one glued to it. US8

- Yuketen x Heschung Thuja in navy calf leather from france with naval printed canvas on the tongue, made in france,  worn about 50 times. UK7

Message me if interested, I'll try to get some pictures up

Held up surprisingly well for around 20 years @Double 0 Soul

Freshöy washed. Didn't get the soot out completely, but better than the way it was before.

^Not caring always brings the best results!

The hickory would be great on a half zip!

Took delivery of the GoWest-Jeans this week. No fit pics as of yet. They seem to be NOS, as they still had little plastic thingy from the tags attached and look completely unworn.
The denim has a strong grey/green-cast, is super-rough and has a nice irregular light-red/pink selvedge line. The yoke and the part between pocket-openings and waistband are made of a black/dark navy leather, which I condinioned with a bit of mink-oil, as it seemed dry.
Would be thrilled to know a little more about the brand, so if anybody got a little more knowledge on them, hit me up

^How much did that horsehide jacket run you?

Great coat @bartlebyyphonics! Vintage?

For reference, me a couple of years ago in the 634-DD that I ended up giving away to a pal

They look good…but they look like skinny jeans

My 634N fits about the same. Thinking about giving them to my girlfriend, as they fit her waaaaay better.

Didn't help that I gained a few pounds in the last year..

Dawson had a british denim once as well, which sounds interesting.
