GBG001 contest - Indigo Veins x Göteborg Manufaktur x Denimbase

[Thanks_M8]

@Double 0 Soul yeah the same thing as with the sawdust happened to me with soot from a fire prevention site I worked at a few weeks ago. Spin cycle is correct, I never bother turning it off as I usually turn them inside out and get nice marbling from it.

[Double 0 Soul]

We only have a cheap shitty Beko with very few settings, non of which offer a 'wash without spin' cycle so the cat and i watch it go round, i shut it off manually, drain the water, ring my jeans out into the sink and hang them on the line.

Probably the jeans with the best fit in the top block.

Oh and of course Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, etc.!

[Thanks_M8]

Think at the end of the contest the stitching on the jeans will be allhappy handmade...

Anyways, made some pizza and bread again lately, got a new record, walked the dog and so on.

Good start in the new year

After wearing mine for a bit, I have truly fallen in love with them haha. I still wish for a tiny bit more space in the waist but i've been almost wearing them everyday now, and no real complaints. Was so-so at the start but was worth it! Glad the guys at göteborg manufaktur convinced me to keep them haha. First wash hopefully soon-ish.

Was in the portland/woodland area for four days for a wedding for New Years. I really enjoyed my time there. The woodsy, rainy, overcast environment is really my jam. 

A little visit to my uncle somewhere in Vancouver, WA. Nice and cozy neighborhood. 

 

 

Woodlands area where there was a insanely curvy road leading to our destination for the ceremony.

Downtown Portland area. I wasn't able to really taste the local foodsy stuff except for Kim Jong Smokehouse (pork bun; twas good if a little overpriced) and some other place down in N Williams Ave which was terrible. Wish I was able to get something from the many food carts I saw. 

 

SEPDX. Wasn't open as we were too early.

 

Hot pot somewhere outside Portland.

Chicken Feet

Wedding Day. Suit from Proper Cloth. Like it for the most part. Design needs some work (e.g. less of a high gorge and lower button stance) so hoping they give us those those options later on. I probably could have also make the suit a little longer and let the waist out just a bit but again I like it enough.

 

Jeans now

Was moving those big rolls of roof material and one of them nicked me right in that spot.

[Thanks_M8]

Another two weeks down the road, another hot wash.
The patch is starting to crack and get all fuzzy, The roping is insanely strong and the leg twist is coming along nice!
Also fly fades and somehow, despite the often washing honeycombs are coming along.
Cheerio!

[Bobbo]

Yasss, that crinkly fabric! You're way ahead of me, can't wait to see how they shape up.

[vIGGiou riou]

my GBG after more than 4 months of wear...

[jegr]

My pretty much new size 34s hemmed to 30.5” aren’t getting any wear. If someone wants them I’ll let them go for cheap.

A nice crotch shoot in the morning. The first broken threads on my pair. Luckily Kuniyoshi-san double sewn the inner leg in that region.

Lucky for us!

[vIGGiou riou]

have the same, but I trust to my talent for sewing.....

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Yeah, I will definitely take care of that myself and sew it back together.

Hi guys, so after whining and complaining that I missed out on these, I was lucky enough to pick up the pair srudy was selling and I’m glad to join in the comp. thanks to her! The inseam is shorter than I’m used to but I love them.
