^ that’s great. I respect that a lot. there’s basically almost none or very little clothes made in here, and what we do have is not to my liking. I shop almost exclusively Japanese, directly almost always (so no sales anyways if we’re getting back to that discussion). But I really don’t buy that much clothes. I buy jeans when the current pair dies. Same for shoes/boots. I don’t buy jackets anymore as I have like 6 jackets and 6 weeks of jacket weather annually. New Zealand is awesome. I enjoyed it very much as a tourist (which is probably very different as a resident?).

@tg76 so that means no Japanese brands?

I come across this picture every few months or so on Pinterest. This guy reminds me of David Letterman so much at one point I tried to see if they’re somehow related (yielded no results).

@cultpop 0217 I like cap a lot. But maybe I’m biased as I wear an ebbets cap myself.

@Cocoa_Lapin what about field leathers? Around the same price as schott but much better quality

Dalee’s and co cardigan/warehouse T/ Belafonte/ Jim Green /cats ass

Tcb are relatively small I think because they make denim products for other brands as well. House brands are usually smaller.

@julian-wolf nice one! Where is that?

@Broark I highly recommend to check out Brut when in Paris. Lovely store and very nice staff as well (which is uncommon).

Fullcount/ Buzz Rickson/ Jim Green

^the woods mountain guy has grey chinos. Also Buzz Rickson do a beige version in most of their options I think. I have both beige and khaki from them and can post a color comparison for you if needed.

@julian-wolf knee bar much? great repair. Looks cool

Dalee cardigan/ tcb wrecking crew. Excuse the mess in the background.

I had no idea! Some of the stuff I still own are on eBay for like 600-800$! That’s crazy. Why would someone pay so much for old Lego…?

Yes they’re idiots in that sense (I’ve had this as well).

I personally never had a pair of jeans that didn’t shrink after every wash. They usually stretch back, length as well (within reason of course). Regardless of being pre washed or not.

I feel like I may have asked this before but I couldn’t really find it anywhere so here goes - is there a brand out there that makes a 66 cut but with a fuller rise? Let’s say around 12” f.r for size 33?

^ on that same note I keep wondering which version will go black this year.

That’s interesting. I have something similar with shrimp, but also my throat gets shut. It was actually pretty mild when it started and later on became more and more severe. Started when I was 21. But I didn’t have a whole lot of shrimp growing up. But yeah cats love dissecting. Ours eat the crickets body but leave the legs as trophies on the front porch.

Nice, I never thought a discussion on a denim forum would venture towards my masters thesis. The blue tits thing started in the 20s as far as I know, but in any case you’re right about that. Although the learning curve might be similar in that case, there’s a key difference between gaining something very valuable (like the cream of the milk) and dying - you only die once, so it’s relatively rare to genetically act in a death preventing manner without learning at all. But as I said before There are other mechanisms that almost guarantee that you avoid poisonous natural foods, so it might be that just a very small lick of the stomach made your cat understand that it’s not for him. It’s a common thing throughout felines I think. I know tigers and leopards also avoid some stomachs or other organs. Sorry if I bored you to death 😄

^ some actions can be costly enough that the avoidance is genetic. However in this case I think it’s a combination of social learning and individual learning. (i.e mommy won’t eat it and that one time you felt rebellious and tried to nibble on it you got a severe stomach ache). It’s also been showed that there’s a very quick and strong tendency to avoid foods if you think they caused you some disturbance in the gut even once. It’s different with food allergies since the reaction is usually not gut related.

It’s both, if you ask the owner. Their inseam are pretty normal I think? Usually come at around 36”. You can probably ask them if you need anything longer. Talk to Ryo on IG or just email them.

Nice. The notorious pink v7 in the corner…

Feel free to share some picture updates of how the jeans look. I know I’m interested at least.
