nycsurfer530 19,258 Posted November 26, 2018 No real denim photos, although I’m due for another wash. Thanksgiving here in SF. My parents flew out to visit so I took them to a couple of my favorite hiking spots as well as a couple wineries, Peju and Darioush, where the fall colors were fantastic. 19 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bobbo 5,496 Posted December 2, 2018 Shit quality but here's a few snaps after I gave them the second wash this weekend. Will probably be less wear time for a while now that the cold is creeping in. 27 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Definitely washed frequently, but totally worn hard as nycsurfer could likely attest. As much as I wash my pair, those are still super crocked which requires activity/abrasion. I'm finding that I lose little indigo now, and since I'm not wearing as hard as nycsurfer, it's all settling at the same even deep blue. Will have to get some pictures up when I have good light 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bobbo 5,496 Posted December 11, 2018 Some bits and pieces from the last few days: I went to an exhibition that the Swedish musician Hurula had this weekend. Painted on top of pages from the bible. Anyone of you seen Ruben Östlunds film The Square? The museum scenes are shot in Gothenburg and funny enough we now have our own square at my local square (there's a pun waiting with your name on it Maynard!). Later that night I went over to my friend Olof of www.goteborgmanufaktur.se to celebrate his birthday and play a good game of Couronne. Also went to see Pale Honey, an up and coming trio from Gothenburg. It was real good but they were blown away by The Exorcist GBG, a kinda instrumental electronic punk band. Did not see the wicked punk-like tunes coming at all. Moshpits and everything. Possibly the best show I've seen all year except Daniel Norgren. 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
