[smoothsailor]

Interesting question @bartlebyyphonics - thanks for this...

Ooe x Bandanna Almanac v FW 'double' leg

Both 10oz, both dungaree denim though sure they will age differently

Fit-wise...

• FW is more voluminous and is heavier simply by virtue of more fabric (750g Ooe v 900g FW, weighed them!)
• Ooe more fitted in the hip / top block and straight leg, akin to stovepipe.  But still plenty of space.
• FW are wider in hip by c5cm
• Both have same FR (35cm) but FW have much bigger BR by c7cm (a whopping 52cm for FW v a sizeable 45cm Ooe)

In terms of the legs...

• Ooe 'double' leg starts at the pocket.  In fact, at the large 'coin' pocket there are 3 layers of denim (see pic).  Notably though, they don't feel 3 layers worth of heaviness. 
• Ooe 'double' leg ends at the row of stitching above the hem and, interestingly, at that row of stitching only part of it is stitched to the denim underneath (see pic)
• FW 'double' leg starts at the thigh but runs all the way down to, and including, the hem

The back of the jeans both have a cinch but have differences e.g. Ooe single pocket, FW double plus.  

Let me know if anyone wants more info and photos and I can post that in an appropriate thread.

Real special thing, those Ooe's...FW's real nice as well of course, but that Ooe stitching and details really gets me going! Sad I missed out on that pair, though I'm happy to own the Mechanics Overalls

@bartlebyyphonics I’m still walking around in (denim) shorts, t-shirt and Birkenstocks. Is SE London significantly colder than NW?

@julian-wolf Freewheelers look amazing. Have you posted those in the FW thread recently? I went back a few months, but didn’t see anything. Definitely interested in an image dump (and any pertinent info) if you have time.

[julian-wolf]

@tooth Thanks. It looks like I last photod them in December, so look for a post from around then. They honestly haven’t seen a ton of wear in the past year, but next time I wash them I’ll def. take some updated shots

Found this t shirt washed up on the beach while at the San Juan islands a couple months ago… the sun bleached an amazing pattern onto it!

worn with Duke belt and Stevensons

My take is basically at that temperature you're going to be hot no matter what, might as well wear what you want 😂

[blooming]

I wore 14oz UES denim plus their traveling shirt every day through a 2 week trip to Vietnam and yeah, that’s the vibe. You get sweaty but there’s something satisfying about it lol

Still feel uncomfortable making a picture of my outfit. But found a way a bit better than my dirty mirror.
