Would anyone be interested in an unworn pair of TCB 20s?  I've just decided against the look and want to sell them.  They are a Size 29 and have not been hemmed.

I have a short sleeve one. It is nice, not like a Strike Gold or Stevenson nice, but still nice. 

The arms on the short sleeve aren't baggy, which really helps the fit.

Would you say it’s worth getting? I just don’t feel like paying in excess of $200 for a short sleeve sweatshirt. I’m not expecting the same quality as my Real McCoy’s hoodie.

Anyone have one of the Todd Synder x Champion sweatshirts? Looking at one of the short sleeve ones and just thought I'd ask.

Does anyone have experience with a Tompkins knit shirt? I’ve been looking at the loop and weft offerings and was thinking about picking one up. 

I don't. But I think they look absolutely fantastic.

ELMC (Lofgren) has a few variants:

I don’t have experience with them, but I like the look of Dehen’s:

$300 for one is a bit much perhaps, but I don’t know how much it costs them to produce one in USA.

Dehen has been on my list for a while now too, but its hard to justify $300 for a 1/4 zip for me.

Lady White also has some 1/4 zips. No experience with their sweatshirt material, but their tees are nice.

I've looked at Lady White.  They are great, but I am not a fan of the pocket.

Hanging out in Lake Tahoe for the weekend so..

Jacket: Strike Gold SGJ50S

Hoodie: American Apparel 

Denim: Samurai s710xx 19oz

Shoes: Adidas Trail Chukka 

Gloves: Hestra Deerskin Lined

Where did you get the jacket?

Anyone have any recommendations for 1/4 zips? I know The Real McCoy's did one last year, but haven't found another one on that same level recently.

Only thing that is holding me back now is the way they measure the rise.  I see that it says "※The length of the Rise is the pants Length minus the Inseam" but I do not know how this translates to the way most others measure it.  For example, I was also looking at Warehouse Lot 900xx which has a front rise of 26cm compared to 400S SLIM STRAIGHT DENIM which has a 20cm rise.  

Can anyone help me to understand this?

@cmr_reed it's the same denim

Thanks a ton

I want make sure this is a matching set before I purchase.  The jacket is UES 14.9oz 2nd TYPE DENIM JACKET and the jeans are 400S SLIM STRAIGHT DENIM.  Both are 14.9oz denim, I just want to make sure the denim is the same.

Good! I am looking for a Type II Jacket and a matching pair of jeans and have not found too many options with measurements I like.

How does UES's denim stack up to some of the bigger names in terms of quality?

@ColonelAngusThats not bad at all.  I was thinking Hollow's Rail Belt in Natural Chromexcel. What do you think?

Anyone have any ideas on what belt may look good with Red Wing 1907s? I'd prefer the leather to be as similar as possible and for the buckle to be nickel platted brass or some other gray metal.

Anyone have any experience with National Athletic Goods?  I am looking at getting their 1/4 Zip in Mid Gray.

The measurements on the WH website are definitely one-wash. If you're referring to the waist and thigh measurements, S&S measure them differently from what most people are used to (i.e. waist is measured without aligning the waistband and thigh is measured 1" down from crotch). Check it out here https://standardandstrange.com/pages/how-we-measure. The conversion for other measurements seem quite similar to me.

That certainly clarifies everything for me.  I was not getting an answer nearly that clear from Warehouse themselves. Thank you.

Can anyone comment about sizing for Lot 900xx (Slim) One Wash on the Warehouse website?  I reached out to them to see if the measurements that are provided are raw measurements or one wash measurements and did not get a clear response back.  I am asking because the measurements that are on their website differ from those on the Standard & Strange website by quite a bit.  My assumption is that the measurements on their site are raw measurements even though it is for a one washed product.

I need an honest opinion about cuff size.  Too big? Too small? Just right? Please let me know below.

Anyone have first hand experience with Buzz Rickson's A2 Deck Jacket?

I'd like to learn more about the Buzz Rickson's A2 Deck Jacket as well if anyone has some experience with it.  I am well aware of Buzz Rickson's reputation in the industry and just want to hear if anyone has a first hand account with this jacket.
