The Flat Head 3001 World Tour

[PG2G]

Just sent them a PM in case they weren't following the thread.

[twistedtrees]

yeah, sorry I haven't been checking as often lately, but I'm up for getting them. I mentioned in my PM to PG2G that I won't get back to Chi-town until Jan. 7th (visiting the parents), but if they get shipped like next Friday (Jan. 4th) I should be back in time to get them. Just let me know who to send my info & address to & I'll be good to go. Thanks.

[kiya]

Cotton, bring them to Self Edge and we'll take care of shipping them to the next location for you...

[Charlie Delta]

Fantastic!

[kiya]

Fantastic!

Let me know what day you're coming so i can be available for beers and tacos.

[Cameland]

[Charlie Delta]

[PG2G]

Looks like they are going to go to twistedtrees now and we'll stick prof on towards the end.

Jeans arrived yesterday

Everything looks cool, except there wasn't a belt. I guess that was just one person's personal belt. The only stuff in the box were the jeans and the notebook

Initially I wasn't crazy about the fit, but after wearing them last night, I started to really like them. The zipper fly is weird because I've been used to button flies for a while now. Here are some fit pics, the Flat Heads are on the left, and for reference I put pics of my WarehouseXBiG 660 sz 30 on the right.

more travel pics to come over the next couple weeks:D

[Charlie Delta]

Nah fit looks good, just have to get used to it I guess.

And the belt is also on its way to you, Kiya forgot to slip it in this box so it's send seperatly.

Now you have to make up for my slacking month though....

[twistedtrees]

cool, I was just worried that I would get blamed for keeping the belt:( j/k, but I didn't realize how dark those pics were, oh well...it gives me more reasons to take more pics.

Also, the waist was actually a little stretched, so I threw them in the wash to try to shrink them down. there was blue in the washer, but it didn't seem like too much color loss.

[twistedtrees]

here's a quick update. These haven't gotten much wear in the past week, my classes don't start until next Tuesday, so I've been posted up in the apartment watching tv. But as soon as I'm back in the swing of things I'll be able to get some more wear into them. Also, got the belt & I like it, except I'm not to crazy about the metal studs, but the leather is really nice. Here's some more pics just to keep it going.

the belt's gettin some wear.

and the start of some honeycombs

oh, and Kiya, I thought you might care about this, but those yoyos on the bookcase are some vitage things from like the 50's or 60's, whenever my dad used to use them. They may be newer though, I don't know. But I thought I'd take a pic of them just for you.

[willy p]

glad to see some progress pics

[beatle]

Wear ´em hard....

[twistedtrees]

Had to go downtown yesterday to pick up a suit that had been altered. It was freaking cold, but it's supposed to be worse today. That's why I look so dumb with the same pose, I wasn't taking my hands out of my pockets for anything.

On the way to catch a bus

Waiting for the train

Brownline to Redline transfer

And I thought since I was down there I'd get a shot of the Flat Heads in front of the Levi's store

[twistedtrees]

The Flat Heads had a little excitement today. I'm walking to the train to go to class, it's my first day back and I get to the train station and BAM! There was an apocalyptic sinkhole in the fucking street. Apparently a water main broke. So I took a couple shots of it and the FH's with my shitty phone cam.

Here's the FH's. You can see some of the vertical fading

[mrip]

damn that sink hole looks intense.

thanks for the update and the pics trees

[corned beef]

ah so these are in chicago now. Maybe i might spot em next time im down in the city.

[beatle]

Wow...all that damage from a broken water pipe.....

[Charlie Delta]

I had to struggle to fit into the last hole of the belt...

[twistedtrees]

I guess I'm a little over half way done. Whoever's up next should get me your mailing info so I can get them ready to send off, or else I'll keep wearing 'em:)

I went up to the photo studio today at school to try to get some pics with decent lighting. The color is a little off, and I didn't use a proper light diffuser, but you can still get a sense of the fading that's starting to happen. They're also starting to get a little sheen back.

the vertical fading

[ordo]

I believe that adsurgo is next and then me - I am getting excited - they are looking good.

[justiz2]

Looking good twistedtrees...

[twistedtrees]

Sorry I don't have any picture updates this time, I've been busy with school and trudging through a half a foot of snow and single-digit temps lately. I think most of the dried salt from the snow has brushed off these things.

I was just wanting to get the shipping info on who's next, or who wants to be next. I'll wear them this next week and get some more pictures up, and then probably ship them out by Saturday the 9th. If I don't hear from anybody, I'll just keep wearing them.

Ordo mentioned adsurgo being next, but I though that profmotif had flip-flopped months with me. So, hopefully I'll hear from either of them.

[PG2G]

I should update the OP. Prof is currently in a state of limbo I guess, he'll probably fit in towards the end. I believe they will be going to adsurgo next.

[twistedtrees]

Cool, if adsurgo or someone can get me his shipping address, these will be his soon.

Also, I felt guilty for not having pics for the past week, so I went out in the snow today for some pics.

Me in a snow fort somebody down the street made

[beatle]

Can't believe it - but I'm kind of jeaulous about you having snow...winter in Germany did'nt happen yet....
