I think it’s been discussed before but I can’t find it right now, but thoughts on the 30’s hats? Thinking about getting one to wear while in the pool this summer, denim version would surely fade a lot with some pool time.

I have two, indigo denim for me and green denim for my wife. Both are very nice and comfortable. I love the style and functionality. The wide brim keeps out the sun and discourages the small gnats that aim directly for your eyes balls. 
The indigo denim seems to be made of the same material as the indigo 40s cap. Which is very floppy. My 40s cap brim will not stay flipped up, and the brim of the 30’s doesn’t like to be told where to stay formed (which is helpful when trying to block sunlight from a particular angle). Either way, I wear mine all summer long and highly  recommend it. I wonder if they have the USMC herringbone hat back in stock. That ones a beaut.

Ok guys...TCB t-shirts.
I wear size 6(L) in Merz B Schwanen tees and I measured my tee yesterday.
The measurements are smaller then the measurements for a size M in TCB's size chart (I measured 48-49cm chest and TCB has 51cm for the M).

Am I crazy thinking a size M could work on my frame (185 cm, 78 kg)?

[julian-wolf]

I wear a 7 in Merz tees and just ordered a TCB L, so if you’re crazy I may be too…

[Geeman]

Am I crazy then.... as I can't even find the T's on their webshop? ?

Found on the site itself.....

I think it's crazy you wear a 7 whereas I wear a 6

[julian-wolf]

Hah, come to think of it that does seem weird—but when I've tried 6's at Self Edge they've consistently been tight in my shoulders and underarms, so…go figure?

edit: For what it's worth, the two Merz tees I have are the 207 and the 513, both of which seem to fit well in a 7

Hey y’all! Looking into picking up a tabby’s jacket or black cat jacket for the fall. Does anyone own either one? Can you help me decide / size it? Thanks! 

[bartlebyyphonics]

no help with sizing...

like the tabby's design/s much best (but not so much the buttons...)

I have the tabby jacket in brown twisted denim. Let me know if that helps somehow, what do you need? 

About the black cat I can’t help with sizing but the denim black cat jacket is now on sale on redcast heritage.

Happy Friday! I came home to an exciting package. TCB cat light shirt in chambray, size 36. Ryo helped me with measurements and it fits perfectly, I don’t mind having a little room for movement. He also sent the cute stay at home tag, nice touch! I may have to go for the ranchman or dude ranch in denim next....hmmm

[Hopethisoneisnttaken]

Looks very nice! Great fit

[Capsicum Fried Meat]

Fit is great. More comfortable with lil bit room. Try dude ranch shirt next time.

That’s where i’m leaning! Not sure about sizing, the charts look pretty small but I’m a small guy. Ryo will assist per usual!

[Broark]

I'm also interested in the Dude Ranch shirt, but I think I might need them to make a 48 for me based on the measurements.
Should be doable since they make the Ranchman in that size.

There's a new 60's Slim Jeans available for those that are into it. If you have the 50's version, you might also be interested in trying these!

[lee porter]

Nice 

[lee porter]

I might have too

[Geeman]

May have hemmed my 50 slims a touch to short  they just about fit but concerned about people's comments the one wash shrink further. Even with the low rise I have to wear low on my hips to feel right in the length 

May have to bite the bullet and get a replacement pair and hem a half inch longer. (Also buying direct from Ryo means I get the hemming from them and keep that lovely roping)

Anyone interested I a pair of size 29 (30-31 actual ) with a 29.5 inseam PM me 

 

Also are those 60 slims not the exact measurements of the 50s slims? What's the difference? 

[beautiful_FrEaK]

If the measurements are the same, the denim is still different 

[darkstar73]

Hey all! 

I'm looking at picking up some TCB 60s jeans. I have 50s right now in size 32, they're definitely too big because I have lost weight since I got them. How do you think I should size the 60s? I lost 10-12 pounds for reference.

Also, do you think the lower rise will bother me?

If I remember right I would have taken 1 size up on the 60 compared to 50. Volvo wears both pair in the same size. Better too big than too small as belts are life saving tools. Only you can know if the lower rise will bother you.

[Capsicum Fried Meat]

I got them both. Same size

[bartlebyyphonics]

very interested to see the second sunrise collaboration release...

great to see repros of other than u.s. denim styles... 

if not for incoming ww2, would be very interested / very into 10oz and white stitching these days...

crazy that most sizes seem gone already on both second sunrise and tcb sites...

[plus good blog post to see originals based on here...]

My 60s are a size up from my 50s and I’m glad I sized up one. The waist of the 32 in the 60s felt very similar to waist of the 31 in the 50s to me.
