I'm finding it still requires 'double-clutching' to get from page to page.

First click = Blank page, 2nd click = intended destination.

Is it same for everybody?

Yep. Been waiting on Mr. Tech to sort it out - think he is still on holiday?...

On my list:
1. The page double loading issue (550 internat server error page on links)...
2. Seems the 'User activity' list is only showing posts going back about a month or so... Not sure if this has only been an issue since the upgrade?? 
3. Search seems limited.

Anything else anyone noticing?

[Geeman]

The double click issue is definitely ongoing..

[Double 0 Soul]

I can't remember the last time 'Search' worked well, probably like a decade ago, even then it was a bit sketchy.. i just put it down to the forum data being too much.

I THINK this is a long standing issue - can't remember exactly but I've never been able to find much in the user activity bit of anyone's profile

What has been your preference for cuff size lately? Smaller singles or tight doubles have been my go-to's, but I've also been liking the no-cuff look as well. @MJF9's pair of At Last's in the WAYWT thread has me considering big chunky cuffs for my next pair though. Looks so good on the right pair.

[julian-wolf]

^ My main preference at this point is to keep the factory hem, where practical, and to let that determine how much of a cuff (if any) I turn up. I end up enjoying the extra variety. Of course, this approach is enabled by mostly wearing wider-legged jeans: with more tapered jeans (say anywhere less than a 9” leg opening for my size, give or take), anything chunkier than a small single fold starts to look pretty awkward

[Double 0 Soul]

I have my jeans hemmed for a single cuff or no cuff.. 

I don’t like the sensation of weight around the hems of my jeans caused by multiple folds of denim.. you get that weird pendulum / bell ringer effect as your jeans flap around your legs while you walk 

[Cold Summer]

I've been wearing all my jeans uncuffed with a slight break for about the last 1.5-2 years, I think. I really don't think I'm ever going back. I feel like it's a cleaner, less visually distracting look, and let's face it, showing selvedge is not the flex it used to be when it's anywhere and everywhere now. I like the stronger roping fades I get with the no-cuff look, too. Some added bonus: no dirt and miscellaneous crud accumulating inside the cuff; and no tears/costly repairs caused from cuffing, either. 

[Hopethisoneisnttaken]

My personal preference these days is either no cuff or very small cuff. I do however care a lot about good roping so when possible I get the jeans hemmed by the brand. I sometimes prefer to leave the jeans longer and double cuff if it means losing the factory chain stitch (especially for brands like tcb, FW, etc where the roping is just *chef’s kiss*

[yung_flynn]

I'm tall enough that there are very few brands with an inseam long enough to even consider cuffing. I usually have the reverse issue, where anything marginally shorter than about 32.5" is unwearable for me. I need around 34" to have a break.

TCB and Samurai are among the exceptions. For TCB, I was hemming for no cuffs. Lately, I've been enjoying a bit of a break and leave maybe an extra inch or two. Then I do a small double cuff if I feel like having a better drape.

I'm not sure if I've run across a pair with a long enough inseam to even consider a really thick, Rockabilly-esque cuff.

[MJF9]

I like a bit of variety on the jeans rail
My cuffing depends on the particular jeans and my tastes at the time
For example
Big double cuff on At Last Co
Very big single cuff on a pair of SCSC 42s I wear fully cinched
Large single cuff on some FW 1937s
Small single cuff on the slimmer WoMs, SCSC 43s and Denime 37s 

Edited January 13 by MJF9
Correct the SCSC 42 cuff

[ATWM]

I tend to get my jeans hemmed at point of purchase if they offer competent chainstitch hemming (Hoosier, Bears etc). I usually err on the inseam being still too long, sometimes way too much, usually accounting to fail for variance in rise. But I rarely will adjust the hem, so I just cuff whatever is left. Some of my jeans have a pretty thick one, but it tends to settle out with time enough for me, though a proper denim head may scoff. It's essentially laziness and rather going too long than too short. The jeans I'm wearing most now (the word of mouth contest jeans) I really hit the inseam pretty well so I wear them with a small single cuff or no cuff depending on my footwear really. 

[Geeman]

I like a bit of variety,  my current rotation has a decent size single cuff (inch and a half), 1 with a small single, a double cuff and 1 with no cuff. Up until a year or 2 ago it was always cuff. 

[smoothsailor]

Went from 3” cuff to a small roll.

agreed with double o his reasoning, specially with lighter jeans ss fullcount.

but to lazy to do something about it.

cant remember i wore an uncuffed jeans

I like the variety too. Up until the last couple of years, I never cuffed. Now I have shallow, single, Japanese style and then no cuff. SOmetimes, it was purely because I couldnt be bothered to get them hemmed.

[reubensangwich]

I tend to prefer no cuff, but I've been wearing my current pair with a longer (than I was previously used to) single cuff or tighter double cuff because I didn't get them hemmed short enough. I like the way a tiny bit of stacking looks with a slimmer leg opening, but with wider leg openings the stacking becomes pooling, and looks terrible in my opinion. 

[CSL]

Unlike DoubleO,  I do like a multiple fold as I like the way the weight makes the jeans hang. That being said with my height it's rare I find a pair long enough for more than a double cuff. I suppose three fold would be the sweet spot.

Regarding the width of the cuff I used to like 2.5-3 inch but generally opt for narrower these day. One advantage to the narrow cuff that I find useful is that you can flip it up a fold when wearing boots, and down one for shoes. 

 

[Maynard Friedman]

Single turn-up to mid shin or just below the knee, depending on the length of my socks.

[CSL]

Do you ever add a downwards fake single cuff?

[Maynard Friedman]

^ Yes, but only when I’m not wearing any socks.

I've got a couple of pairs of dry Momotaros (601, 901 if memory serves) I put on ice years ago.. will never fit into them now. Those have at least a 38" inseam, maybe 39. 33" waist on them; I remember thinking I could maybe pass them onto my son, but he ended up 6'3" and favours looser jeans – he didn't mind relieving me of my Orslow painter's pants and some FW 601xx '51 that I hadn't got around to hemming.

[oomslokop]

usually wear mine with a blindfold

[MJF9]

^ is the blindfold the selvedge cut off cuffs repurposed?

Looking forward to the fit pics 😉😁

At this point @Maynard Friedman, you may as well go thigh high and steal all our girls.

All this talk of Marlon Brando reminds me that i have a bunch of denimhead dvds in storage which i haven't watched in 20yrs.. 

Wild One..  Badlands .. The Misfits.. and such.. the denim pr0n in The Misfits is just obscene, having them on dvd means you can pause and zoom (and not just on Marilyn's bottom)   +dvd extras

alas.. we haven't had a dvd player in the house for maybe 15yrs so if anyone wants them for the price of the postage, give me a hola

Give @Dr_Heech first shout.. but i'm sure he has all of them.

[Maynard Friedman]

Why not keep them and get yourself a cheap DVD player? Handy for that dystopian future when there is no Internet (but hopefully still electricity!).

[Dr_Heech]

Thanks Neal,  yeah sure I'll have a few of them, not sure what you have  Can l dm you later after work? (Or you can dm me a list?)

I recently bought a new dvd player as our old one is 20 years old and has a scart lead so we use an adaptor. Had a few blue ray dvds but no blue ray player so decided to buy one - remote control and everything (how modern). I've never streamed and probably won't until l'm forced to as l don't see the point, same with music, l'd rather have the physical item as well as the content, but l'm old fashioned l guess.
