    They will be releasing an all black version of the hi backs later on this year I think. It’s on their ss25 catalog.

    TCB released a new skater fit of their 50s jeans. They look pretty cool. Might be good for climbing as well https://tcbjeans.myshopify.com/products/baggy-50s-jeans-one-wash

    If unsanforized is must, then I think TCB is the most stable - released one. They make it in a different cut each year. FW and FC also have them once in a while, not sure about how often. trying to state the obvious here but I find black jeans much harder to fade than indigo. That is because black jeans (mostly when they’re fresh but also worn) are much less versatile than indigo. to me, a pair of faded black jeans was something I really hoped for but than when I finally got it I found out it wasn’t really worth it.

    Looks delicious! Took me a few seconds. I was 100% it’s a boars head (I guess the upper cut of the knife looked somewhat similar to eyelids?)

    Some post shrink pictures: All in all I’d say the wash brought out a lot of hairiness, they shrunk more than I thought, and are considerably less wide (or should I say more well proportioned?) than other wide jeans I have, but I really love the fit, and the excellent leg twist. Pre vs post wash measurements: Waist: 44 cm to 40cm F. Rise: 36 cm to 34 cm Thigh (including back panel): 37 cm to 34 cm Hem: 25 cm to 24 cm Inseam: 89 cm to 81 cm And now, to wear!

    @julian-wolf I will be happy to read some more details. I’m personally more interested in their trousers and shirts offerings, but all info of the brands stuff is welcome.

    I completely agree here. Getting hemmed to the exact length from the get go is difficult. Especially if you take into account that each pattern fit differently, that jeans are forever shrinking and that different shoes/boots usually look better with different length of inseam. What works well with chinos for me is hemming them again after about a year of wear. I did it with denim as well but than you lose the beautiful roping that are created to that point. fading a pair of denim is always a win some lose some situation.

    I’ve nothing to contribute with regards to the model or the sizing, but I too share your yearning for the arcs, and also the 66 cut in general. But cannot wear slim tapered whatsoever sadly.

    Bought this shirt at a thrift store today. anyone knows this brand? Supposedly Italian. Called Casucci. Label reads “famous tailoring factory”. I know it’s nothing fancy, bought it for next to nothing, but the fit is great and cool pattern. from what I read online it can be from 70s or 80s.

    Also contemplating if the misaligned stitches were done on purpose
  11. Hopethisoneisnttaken
    They don’t really taper much, it’s just that the back panel seems much winder than the front panel. When folded in the middle you can hardly see any taper at all. still contemplating if I should send them back to get the rivet or ask for the rivet to be sent to me, so they’re still dry and unshrunk.

    Buckle back 1936 jeans just came in. It’s been about 2 years since I last bought a five pocket design jeans. These are light, roomy and the fabric looks amazing up close. The only downside is that despite what it shows on the website, my pair lacks the crotch rivet, which happens to be one of my favorite details. they are still raw, I expect to wash them later on tonight, will add before and after measurements afterwards.

    Anyone here has experience with TBD eyewear? Looking for mid -range sunglasses. Would love to know how’s the quality (and happy to hear of other recommendations).
  14. Hopethisoneisnttaken
    Personally I would stick to the size chart measurements rather than tag size.
  15. Hopethisoneisnttaken
    Completely agree about the price tag. going back to the quantity discussion, 800 for an extremely niche repro seems like a lot. Even for LVC.
  16. Hopethisoneisnttaken
    A general thought here - how many articles would you say brands in our niche usually manufacture as a single drop of a fullsize range? I know the variation must be large, but this post regarding the new LVC model made me think. Can 800 really be called “limited” in our neck of the woods?

    I spent most of last winter walking my dog in these, so I guess an hour daily for 4 months did that.

    Evolution of my hi back denim trousers pair. Bad lighting, but it has been cloudy and foggy for the past week or so. Not much to do about it.
  20. Hopethisoneisnttaken
    It looks like the cut is motos old baggy jeans but with a few different details (like orange thread, triple needle stitching)
  21. Hopethisoneisnttaken
    @Double 0 Soul , as a non English person I thought the Duke of Edinburgh’s a person/title.
  22. Hopethisoneisnttaken
    Then that’s a no for brogues for sure. I completely agree that there’s no need to spend as much if you’re not wearing them. I personally love MOTOs shoe offerings, and would’ve ordered a pair myself long ago if they had wide sizes. there’s also the option of the recently discovered KOTOKA brand, which can be ordered via fromjapan. Maybe check out Brother Bridge as well. For what it’s worth I probably live in the most informally dressed country in the world, where people that wear suits are either lawyers or grooms, so hopefully my recommendations suit the occasion.
  23. Hopethisoneisnttaken
    Are brogues an option? I have a pair of Cheaney’s that I bought for a wedding but never wear suit and they work with a lot of other stuff. Btw im width size EE (sometimes even EEE) and their G width fits me quite good https://www.cheaney.co.uk/arthur-iii-oxford-brogue-in-dark-leaf-calf-leather-p5
  24. Hopethisoneisnttaken
    What counts as wide for you? from what I see, Oni might have some offerings for you. But I can’t say how they fit as I never wear anything more than 15 oz

    Jeans and boots look like they aged beautifully. Do share pictures when you get the time
