Congratulations, the customs finally gave in!

^ No need to reinvent the wheel — gold mining is the express lane to maximum fade-out, with none of the pesky originality 🤣.

^ Can’t quite remember if I’ve got any clothes with yellow on ’em—not just shoes, I mean—don’t think I do.

The yellow and blue combo looks delightfully patriotic here in Ukraine…) I imagine it would have a similar effect in Sweden.

As it happens, Bill Bowerman, co-founder of Nike, owned a large ranch near the town of Antelope, Oregon. It was there, in 1981, that the Bhagawan Shree Rajneesh (Osho) movement set up their commune, Rajneeshpuram. Bowerman, not particularly enthused by the sudden arrival of spiritual utopia next door, became a vocal opponent. He used his considerable influence and financial means to support efforts aimed at removing the group. In doing so, he rather stirred the pot—his actions contributed to rising tensions and, quite unintentionally, may have helped provoke some of the more extreme responses for which the Rajneeshees became somewhat infamous.

Magnificent catch! I would buy the similar pair without hesitation in my size — that is, 36 or 38, depending on the actual measurements... 🙂

The Amoskeag pants with a single back pocket won’t be sold in online stores for now, based on today’s news on Instagram. Not a very cheerful piece of news.

A miniature and very cheap (around 1 USD) coffee filter. I bought it during recent trip to Vietnam. It’s used everywhere there. I also discovered the world of Vietnamese coffee, learning that Vietnam is one of the main coffee exporters in the world. The most popular coffee there is robusta. But my favorite coffee at the moment is luwak.

I’m not sure if this will help, but some time ago, a package from Japan got stuck at customs in Kyiv for a week, even though it usually takes up to three days maximum, normally much less. I called the postal service, and they said they couldn’t influence customs. However, a couple of hours later, the package left customs and was with me the next day... 😇

I noticed that ChatGPT often simply lies. For example, I asked it to provide the full text of a poem based on the first line, and it immediately gave me the entire text—but completely made up on the spot. At the same time, ChapGPT is developing very quickly and does some things exceptionally well, such as working with provided ready texts, etc.

Was I supposed to?

ChatGPT: Japan Blue Jeans and Momotaro Jeans, part of the Japan Blue Group, use denim from Okamoto Mills, while the retailer Okayama Denim offers Japanese selvedge denim products that may also be made with fabrics from this manufacturer.

Oh, so you’re sliding down now? How many times a day? The picture is starting to come together. Though, if we’re being honest, Tilmann, I’m starting to think you should be disqualified from the contest! 🤣

I love my black Tricker's Bourton brogues so much, I’m considering wearing them with shorts—just waiting for the day I can start a new trend of “formal beachwear.” Who says you can’t look sharp while getting a tan? 😎 Seriously, I feel like strictly following style rules isn’t as important nowadays. Moto boots could be a good option; maybe sleek Chelseas? My R.M. Williams are quite versatile.

That was exactly the point of my question here the other day. Why do my jeans—even though I usually rotate several pairs—stay looking like new for many months, while someone else’s start wearing out literally the next day? Not that I’m worried about it—quite the opposite, actually. I like that my rare and rather expensive (for my budget) pieces last a long time. I’m just curious. My guess is that I usually wear jeans for only a few hours a day when I go out for walks/errands (several hours daily) and change into something more comfortable as soon as I get home.

I think I’ve lost track of the model with a single back pocket. Does anyone know anything about its release prospects?
-
Almost all the jeans in this thread are already showing signs of fading after just a few weeks. I don’t wear any single pair of jeans constantly, I rotate between two, three, or more pairs over each several months, and such level of wear usually starts appearing after a year or so. I’m a bit puzzled. Am I too careful? Or is my lifestyle just too cautious? What do you guys do with your raws? Sleep in them, rub against walls while walking around the house, or roll around on carpeted floors?😀

Your comment really clarifies things. My knowledge of Evisu is quite basic, and I had forgotten that they have multiple production lines. It makes sense that the products in Hong Kong weren’t from Japan. Now that I think about it, the ones with bright, multicolored embroidery are probably further proof of that. Interestingly, despite Hong Kong’s vast shopping scene (I wasn’t specifically looking for it, but it’s hard to avoid), I never came across authentic denim or any serious brands. Even the regular Levi’s stores were nowhere to be stumbled upon, at least in the city central parts.

I understand that you’re asking about a completely different place, but still—I happened to come across two different Evisu stores in Hong Kong about a week ago, without meaning to. Both had quite a lot of stock. I’ve never been particularly interested in Evisu and don’t recall seeing their products in person, only in online images. The quality of the denim puzzled me a bit—it didn’t feel entirely authentic, too thin and flimsy. It seemed to have some additives that make the fabric stretch or something along those lines. The painted designs and embroidery are distinctive and make an impression, though they’re definitely not to my taste.

All questions are no, except for: Engineer boots.. One JLB pair, more to know what everyone is talking about. Heavy oz denims.. Initially an interest, Iron Heart and Samurai, no longer. Numerous pairs of very expensive boots.. White Kloud, etc. Numerous fancy leather belts.. A couple. Duke's - fancy? Mil repro.. One item. Handmade English shoes.. Some Trickers, still relevant. Whites Semi Dress.. Yes. Wore jeans wet.. A couple of times, when I made a mistake with the size and wanted to stretch them a bit.

SUPERDENIM SMALL QUESTIONS THREAD (Use instead of making new threads)
Talan replied to minya's topic in superdenim
I was asked which brands make the longest jeans. I’m 176 cm, so anything fits me, I never really thought about it. But my friend is 198 cm tall. What would you recommend?
