Took some pics yesterday of my SC'47s while I was snapping pics of my new custom Kuniyoshi/Miz customs. Was going to wait to post these after my next wash, but it's raining so I don't know when I can line dry.

1 year, 9-10 months wear, 8-10 washes (can't remember).

[Shangers]

Decided to move it inside as it started to rain a bit harder and got darker.

Crotch reinforcement alá CTB

some more roping

Patch starting to pull tight. I need to get some bee's wax or shea butter. Been using Palmer's coco butter, but not sure if it is the best.

[beatle]

these are nice...real vintage fade- and great repairs !

[You Ren]

Niiiiiice photos... love the rain shadow

The leather patch has weathered nicely... love the shrinkage.

[You Ren]

Love the relative size of the selvage on the little ones... super fat selvage, that's what I like to see!

super fat selvage? or super fat cuff?

[jcab.]

btw those look good shangers.

[almostnice]

Shangers,those ass repairs are so well done.do you cycle a lot in them?

[bkbb]

levis 505 (jp version) non-selvage

sz 33.. Cropped the jeans short to wear it as roll-up.. Fits getting too loose on me. Some black paint stain here and there while i was doing some paint job.

[Shangers]

super fat selvage? or super fat cuff?

Hehe... I think both of you are right. Those kids have some massive cuffs to match that wide selvage.

Thanks for all the positive comments everyone. They will definitely stay in rotation. I just want to start putting wear on some other ones. Wearing the DVs today.

@almost nice. Yeah, I cycled a lot in them when I first got them. Only wear that I was seeing was in the lap and inside thighs/crotch. After deciding I wanted to try riding from downtown out to my house on my fixed (about 35miles), I had a bit of a blowout. Not epic, but put wearing them on hiatus for about 2 weeks till I found someone that could patch them. When it got hot, I didn't put as much time in them on the bike, but now I am back at it.

The guy did a great job on the reinforcement, and considering that he did some other repairs too, it was really cheap. Like I said in the repair thread, it was about $8 including labor and material, and I still have about 1m of material left.

crosspost from fullcount contest thread

7 months, almost

And then my batteries ran out.

[calvinouch]

fullcounts look great

[bunga]

HaGa you're on your way to become one of the top contenders together with salaami =)

[Mr HaGa]

I should be in good shape then, considering Salaami is 4 months ahead of me and not even competing in the contest

[uno]

Way too cool in the last few pages

[Paul T]

Wash day in the T household on Tuesday.

1955 LVC, 9 months and a couple of washes, and the 1901, wear over a couple of summers,. and the first machine wash. They look a bit less vintage now they're clean. But they smell better.

[almostnice]

Damn! youre the man Paul,back with a bang, i am envious! 1901 looking gorgeous,wish my pair could get that much love.looks like you spend a lot of your time off here not only writing your Bowie book but also doing a hell of physical work.out of rep,i owe you one!

[salaami]

^^the legend returns...with a vengance.

:osorry but i'm not in the contest, i'm just a big FC/osaka5 fan. my jawns are 3 months ahead of the contest, and they are just regular 1108s from BiG. HaGa is doing it real grande for 7 months!
