  1. @julian-wolf thanks for the thorough explanation, make sense. I’m also an inorganic chemist, hence my curiosity. After starting this hobby and reading here on SuFu this stuff has taken a bit of my interest, so I find myself going over to the old ladies with home dyed wool yarn, whenever we are at such a market
  2. Very cool @julian-wolf really love how they turned out. what is the purpose of the aluminum acetate at the start?

    First wash after 6 days…. Kids are messy. the jeans shrank slightly more, which i don’t mind. the denim have turned slight more blueish from the dark blue/grey at the start and it’s interesting with the brown hues. they are still a bit starchy
  5. Maybe not the right the topic, but i think it is a nice thing. I’ve had this man-tle shirt for a year now. i like it and it is in an interesting waxed cotton fabric. The nice thing, which i wanted to share, is how it is sewn. it is sewn so nicely (i think) that the inside looks like the out side, i’ve not seen this before in a piece of clothing i’ve owned. The shirt: the outside back shoulder: the inside of the shoulder:
  6. Liseleje, the north coast of Zealand. we did visit a nice beach close to Aarhus called Bellevue
  7. More like what did i do this summer saw the new James Turrell art at Aros. super impressive and really immersive(?) piece of art. Felt like being in a futuristic spaceship/cult church all made of concrete made the acoustics being insane, with the sound bouncing all around in the dome. every hours it went through a series of colour changes. then spend some time at the coast, by a really great beach. and lastly, a short trip to sweden included some nice BBQ

    First day of wear. Really like the fit, they are stil fairly crunchy/starchy. Went to the park with the baby.
  10. These jeans were some of the first which got me into this hobby. black Edwin ED-80, which a nice colleague gave me. Wore them a ton in the begining, but now they are too small. i’m selling them, but thought I would post them here before that.

    Based on the great info and advise (thx @Alec Leamas and @PBTony) in this thread, I purchased the 220xx-47. From the measurements, I decided to go one size up to w36 - I'm probably also increasing in size of lately. The jeans will be my own mini-contest, as I'm currently on parental leave and will wear these as much as possible during the leave and see how they turn out Currently the temperatures in Denmark are too warm to wear jeans, so looking forward to a slight drop in temperature. The classical before: and after the first wash:
  12. @PrettyBoyTony I have the SC 60 tux The Jacket I have seem to be in a different denim than the jeans. the jeans are slightly greencast after 1,5 years of wear. the jacket is more blue to white fading - in the few areas which fade. Quite a nice jacket and being the type 3 it is more fitted. the flaps on the collars pops up a little after a wash, but will mend when you bend them back I’ve had it for a bit more than 5 yesrs and this is the tag:

    @Alec Leamas Great advise and measurements, leaning towards the 47 now which don’t seem to be in stock.

    @PrettyBoyTony, thanks! my FC are s35, so I think I’ll go for the w36.

    The 220xx-54 is stated as 14 oz, is that before or after shrinking? I’ve found the raw version, which shrink to tag size i guess? I’m w34 in sugarcane, so is it a good bet to take w34 for the 220xx-54?
  17. Nice with the xx denim, I’ll try looking for a pair in stock. I’ve only read about the FC/tcb issue, but I’m trying not to by too much from them:)
  18. @nopal, @merzbot I’ll give the TCB 60’s a look. I’ve always figured the first pair i should get from tcb should be the 50’s:)
  19. Yeah Warehouse I need to look at. I’ve had the feeling this last year that the two swedish shops i often look at, they recieve a lot of Warehouse sweats and tees etc, but not many jeans from WH. I tried the resolute 711, but found the rise a little too low, but nice denim:) I should write Simone, the jeans in the contest thread looks great
  20. Hey, might be a newbie question, But I’ve tried a few different denims now, and progressed along what i can image is the fairly typical SuFu path something like: N&F->Oni->SC -> SDA -> FC. I’ll most likely get an other pair of jeans this year. The question is, the 13,7 oz from FC I’ve really come to like. So which brand has the nicest denim which is less than 14 oz? Fit wise, I actually prefer my SC66 over the slightly wider FC 1101, so what brand has a pair of jeans with the SC66 silhouette and a denim more interesting than the SC66, where i find the denim a bit too regular (it is probably period correct)
  21. SC / Freenote / SC / Velesca Duke (non-vis)
  22. Hansen / Deluxeware / Duke (non-vis) / SDA / Velesca
  23. I can’t answer about the dryer, as I hang dry mine. but, the undyed version is 2-3 cm longer than my died version, which could come from the died being washed during dyeing process… or just variations in production.
  24. Tough ones to follow….. SC / Klaus Samsøe / Tezo / SC66/ paraboot

    Belts

    Really enjoying the belt. Easy to wear and has softened up nicely. Most wear is from my ID card which is clipped to my pocket, but only superficial scratches. This belt is gonna last for decades So very nice of @Duke Mantee to make it for me
