^im not as much a shoe guy like some here but if anyone knows of some boots that look very close to what the frontman is rocking I’d be curious. Are these just OG docs in chukka form?
-
Our situation was admittedly not the ideal, though I’ve learned it was not so atypical either. It was covid lockdown and we couldn’t get outside help. We lived in loft studio apartment with no separate rooms. Our kid had some reflux issues that prevented him from sleeping well until about 4 months old. I had to teach online in that same apartment and my partner got a whopping 6 weeks of leave after an emergency C section, having to go back to work in person every day. Everything was super chill. It didn’t give me any grey hairs.
-
^ that’s true enough, but the cool thing is that sleep deprivation just obliterates your short term memory, so you’ll probably forget that (and lots of other stuff) before you know you forgot it.

Another vote for the 1082. I have two pairs in their blue/grey color size 30 and 31 depending on occasion. I prefer denim but when I can’t do that I’ll often go to these. I have some full count chinos too but generally prefer the warehouse.
-
Having found one that fits me I’d say it’s a worthy redundancy! It’s a shorter cut than any of my others, that alone differentiates it.

In Scotland visiting family. This weather is my perfect. Kapital/OA

I would at least call my credit card and explain it to them, see what happens. I just looked at their store policy and they say they issue a chargeback against chargebacks, which I’ve never seen before, and gives me some sort of feeling about a retailer that feels the need to state that.

Tempo did make a few posts on here I saw, but I can’t seem to find the username. Didn’t they used to be in SF? Will they respond to emails? If so, they should offer to refund you with interest at this point, if they want to do the right thing, unless it was noted this was a years long wait on deposit. 2 years is usually longer than allowed for a credit dispute, but it could be worth a shot.

Lots do, I’d venture to say most that ship internationally will be tax free (you can ask to make sure) but I believe RMC is one of those brands you can’t find that with. Like IronHeart or PBJ. Someone else will correct me if I’m wrong. -
I got my first pair of FC 0105 (their 13.7 oz denim) from Celluloid back when Bears had their first price hike of FC. I paid like ~$185 or so.
-
Celluloid is legit. I can’t remember, you may need to email them to ship international but they do it.
-
^working on it, but it's gonna take awhile due to both my life and the denim itself.
-
It looks permanent (I'm not going on anything other than what the site says), PA is not really a place people go for summer. And even if, I can't imagine relocating a whole studio for that reason! Hope it's a smooth transition and it all goes well, whatever it is. It would be a welcome addition to the US clothing design world!
-
Have people filed real complaints against him with BBB? That takes work, but given his track record it seems warranted. Then again, the headache might not be worth it for an individual.
-
Lots in my size, but not my price range for what it is. Hope some people get some joy out of this.
-
Yea, heat indexes of about 100 all week here in lower Michigan. Feels like I never left NC. New normal I'd wager, though.
-
Definite collector's fee in that price. Looks nice, though.
-
Staying near St. Paul’s, looks like I’m about halfway between the two! But not so far from any of them, really. I’ll drop a line to the shops, thanks!
-
For anyone in the know, I’ll be in London for a few days later next week and since there’s nowhere near me to get a chain stitch hem I’m thinking of swinging by one of the shops there to thin out the cuff on my OA’s. Do any of them do it while you wait? Any recs for who tends to do a better job?

Denim Blunders, Reflections and General Nonsense.

There’s always been a part of the whole…online milieu…that’s been a really weird and uncomfortable seeming bunch. Take a few wrong turns down various denim adjacent rabbit holes (nostalgia, for instance) and you can end up in some bad places. -
Freewheelers, Bootleggers Reunion, Bubo, etc.

I just got mine in too. The '51 cut is so good, for me at least. Just the perfect balance of everything. I think if I could only have one pair it would have to be of that cut. -
@MJF9 here - it’s sweltering right now so not actually wearing this now, but hopefully again soon. FC0105 super smooth on the bottom, the best summer jeans I’ve found.

Nothing has shrunk as much on additional washes as my 1003xx, and I got them one wash!
-
https://www.tenderstores.com/product/type-747-rowers-cardigan/?variation=25514 it is all three things you mention in one garment. I have it and like it quite a bit.
-
I’ll try to get one soon. Now that I think of it, since you have a ranch jacket I’d compare the fit to the ranch jacket one size down. Ie my 38 ranch feels pretty similar to the 40 OA, but the OA sleeves are narrower.
