Thank you!

Are the 1966s made with 100% cotton stitching or is it a poly thread? Can't seem to find that info anywhere.

What yalls favorite releases from this year? That new Zach Bryan album is so good. Love the new Replacements Let It Be mixes. My buddies in Strange Joy put out my favorite hardcore release. No Experts by Illiterates and Torrential Torment by Skourge deserve a mention too.

So sick. Excellent job

Any tips on where to find edge stitch feet? Hoping to find 1/8" and 3/8" so I can do flat felled seams with ease. Maybe an adjustable one if that exists? There's plenty of fixed 1/4" options, but that won't do me much good... I see a lot of sites suggesting stitch in the ditch feet for edge stitching, but that only works if your machine has an adjustable needs position lol.

I paid $175 which seems to be a fair price. The guy I bought it off of refurbishes old singers in his free time, so this one came ready to run. Also came with the buttonholer. You could realistically find one for closer to $100 if you look hard enough. The 15-91 and 201 are the two I set my sights on, and if I found a better deal on a 15-91 I'd have probably gone with it instead. I started actively looking for 201s and 15-91s on a Tuesday morning and by lunch I had scheduled to meet this guy the next day, so I'd be shocked if you had issues tracking one down. They're readily available, affordable, and bombproof.

Stepped up my sewing game. Bought this 201 off marketplace a couple weeks ago and looking forward to putting it through its paces. This thing is heavy as shit lol.

Those of you who work on jeans with a machine, what recommendations do you have for a good quality sewing machine? I've been using an old Brother machine I got for free that's done alright, but it struggles when I have to patch over a flat felled seam. Also plan on making my own jeans in the not too distant future and I'd like to set myself up for success. Should I look for vintage Singers? Should I try and score an industrial machine off facebook marketplace? Or are there reliable (i.e. lots of metal parts, and no computers) machines being made these days that I oughta consider? Not sure if $500 is a reasonable budget but that's what I'm at least starting with. Appreciate it!

Thanks boss

I've seen the diy repair thread, but is there a thread for people to share homemade jeans? I want to make a pair in the future and would like some inspiration.

I don't remember noticing my 50s continuing to shrink with washing. But they definitely plateau because 30-some washes in the only shrinking area anymore is the waist which stretches beck out.

Asked about indigo dyed sweatshirts a couple weeks ago and I'm ready to pull the trigger on the Strike Gold one. Anyone have any experience with their sweats and know what I should expect in shrinkage if any at all?

Museum date the other day. Cleveland's Natural History Museum is under renovation so we only got to see a couple dinosaurs in the lobby area, and then went to Crawford Auto Museum.

I was with my dad and he didn't want to

The Jam is great, but I saw Paul Weller solo with my dad a few years ago and dude played THREE encore sets and each was another three songs. Rubbed me the wrong way lol. Encores are bad enough as it is.

From the other day but since it's Halloween here's my Travis Bickle costume I wore to a party this weekend featuring my Left Fields. Happy Halloween to yall!

Similar top block but they hug my calves less than my greasers. Pocket openings feel smaller than my greasers.

Really digging how these Smokestacks fit me. The slub on these is so good too. Love my Greasers still but this cut blows them out of the water for my build.

Never read it as criticism, just a comparison in quality. To say your product is the same quality as someone else's means you think highly of their products' quality. Seems like praise to me. Also, different cut, different product. Not a copy if it uses similar fabric. Also flannels are so ubiquitous that to claim someone is ripping off someone else's design is goofy unless it's some sort of wild design. Whole thing seems like looking for a problem where there isn't one. But I'm a huge LF fan, so maybe I'm biased.

Thanks for the input!

I dig the look of this one a lot. Looks like Klaxon has them available at a price I like too (shipping ain't bad either) -- does anyone here have any experience ordering from them to the U.S.?
