Update on Libra Pondus (LB 40s) after one week. It so happened that I received the latest Ooe-Yofukuten's, Sugar Cane 1946 and LB in a short period of a few weeks. Comparisons are begging to be made. Three very good products, each with its own exciting features, I like each. Nevertheless, if I had to keep one jean only out of the three, it would be the LB. I just fell in love with them, I like literally everything about them. Also a very simple and true indicator. Of the three items mentioned, I wear LB most often. Almost every day with very few exceptions.

Are you going to clean rivets with something like salt/vinegar paste?

Very limited customised production by one person. You have to contact/order through his IG account. May respond quickly, may take a year or more, as it was in my case. Some info here, https://rebuilt.jp

My Libra Pondus have arrived. The story of the order is full of unusual details. The packaging in Japanese paper and metal box to store and protect the kimono is unique in itself. Not to mention that Isamu san's blog features quotes from Schopenhauer and Goethe... 🙃

What can be the maximum wash temperature without threatening to overcook the leather brand patch?

$630?

Managed to get my hands on one of the last(?) available pairs of SC49007 Non-Wash from Japan.

Thanks, now I don't have to re-watch the film. I like Malick's films in general, but it takes too long to watch, and my ability to concentrate has diminished a lot with age. I'm not talking about joints mobility - if I try to put on a jacket like that, I'll end up in the ambulance.

36 in FW

I like it a lot, but the size is too small...🥲

I often read the advice to turn raw jeans inside out during the first soak and the first wash or two afterwards. That is what I've been doing for a while. I wonder if the one-wash versions are turned inside out during initial wash by manufacturers? What are your preferences for soaking/first wash in this regard?

SOA03XXD-0823 pre-ordered from Barnstormer at the end of October 2023. The parcel eventually arrived, at the end of March. The jeans look a little different to the previous OA models. Waiting for the rainy weather to end so I can soak them and dry on the yard. Will probably wash at low temperature after that, the look and feel is tough.

Never heard about this film. Will give a try, thank you!

Question for tall guys😀 Which brands make really long leg jeans? Like 36? For somebody who's height 198 cm. Thanks.

Thank you!
