  1. @cheapmuthafukr that fit is making me consider if I should get some flares. Dig the jacket too, nice repairs!
  2. Really puts it into perspective that none of this really matters.
  3. Anyone have any idea where to buy mil-spec styles of fabric for fatigue pants and whatnot? Been wanting a pair of baker pants for a while and always strike out with vintage pairs since I'm real tall, so I'd like to make my own pair. Only problem is I'm finding it difficult to track down suitable fabric.
  4. Enjoyed what's remaining of the fall foliage in Ohio this weekend. Brother and I went for a mountain bike ride Saturday morning. Some dude was posted up taking pictures on the trail and got these pictures of me and him. Then my girlfriend and I went to Holden Arboretum in the afternoon. There's a canopy walk at the arb that I'd never had a chance to check out cos it's always been closed when I've been there, so we were excited to find out that she could take her wheelchair along it. Then on Sunday my band opened for Earth Crisis which was pretty wild. Never thought I'd get to say that. All in all it was a great weekend.

    TCB

    Personally wouldn't even think twice about it--it's a low stress area since it's just a pocket flap. There's two nearly full rows of stitching to hold that flap down. Fix it when you've got more than a couple unraveled stitches or fix it now so you never have to think about it again lol. Looks like the thread got broken on that top row. If you brushed against something I could imagine it breaking like that. 100% cotton stitching is gonna do that.
  6. Thank you! They've been around the block a time or two thats for sure.
  7. Same ol hat, vintage vest, thrifted sweater, TCB 50s, Blundstones
  8. Halloween party last night. Paris, Texas became one of me and my girlfriend's favorite movies when we watched it after someone posted stills of it in the iconic denim photos thread.
  9. What are you doing to your glasses that they can't last longer than 2 years? I've got a pair from zenni that I've worn basically daily since like 2018 and they're as in tact as ever.
  10. Lmao I didn't know what you were talking about with the numbers, now I see that they're roads
  11. Nope this was from back in February in Cleveland
  12. Personally, I like big trucks. I think they're really neat. For instance:
  13. On top of the blatant copyright infringements it's also just bad design lmao
  14. Vintage tee, missing tag so no clue on brand DIY jeans Vans Crocketts
  15. @Broark nice Rivian! I really like the hatchback they teased a few months ago and can see myself getting something along those lines once my VW is run into the ground. I had posted the frame when I got it, but I finished building it up the other day so here's my new mountain bike (and a pic with my hardtail).
  16. A friend of mine who's into denim was asking me about my washing procedure on my homemade jeans the other day and was shocked when I told him I machine wash every few weeks and even tumble dry em. Unfortunately he's not close enough of a friend for me to really get into my opinions in washing lol. Regarding denim in new movies, Saturday Night has some good flares and other 70s garms, it was a lot of fun. Worth checking out if you can!
  17. Bring A Trailer posted this Gremlin to their ig the other day that came with a Levi's edition upholstery. Link to the listing
  18. Vintage shirt Vintage Hanes thermal DIY jeans Good Guys boots

    Vintage Denim?

    No clue how old it is but I snagged this vintage Rustler jacket yesterday for a song. I dig the slim fit, and it sits right where I like my jackets to. I really like the shade of blue and the wear it's got. Always loved the hand warmer pockets on these Rustlers too.
  22. Yesterday my girlfriend and I went to a vintage market and I snagged some great pieces. Everything but the baseball tee and the Jeff Gordon tee were from the same vendor and he cut me a deal that made my day. Been wanting a varsity jacket for a while now so that was a good find. Then back at her apartment I cooked some lions mane mushrooms to make tacos. Never cooked these before but had them once or twice. It's impressive how well you can make them taste and feel like meat (at least from what I can remember). They were fun to cook too. Today she and I went for a bike ride along the Ohio Erie canal towpath. It's nearing the end of September and it's still mid 80s here in Ohio, and I'm over it. I want to wear jackets already.
  23. Vintage hat Electric Wizard merch TCB 50s Good Guys boots Need to post more details of these in the TCB thread, been a few fixes since the last time I posted them there.

    Denim Repair

    Quick patch on my mountain biking shorts. Realized I wore a hole between the saddle and my sit bones. Quick patch with some ripstop scrap. Took all of like 10 minutes. Caught it just in time because my brother and I are leaving in the morning for a race and I wouldn't be able to patch em at the campsite.
