What are your jeans doing today?

I feel like such a dork for asking, but these are beautiful hammers. What are they?

Framing hammer with the tiger striped handle is really pretty, too.

Estwing. If you want one, be sure to shop in person and sight them square to the head. You can't go wrong buying them randomly, but the leather handled models have a tendency to be twisted or even crooked through the handle. Also, Estwing forging is hit-or-miss as far as appearance. These aren't practicality issues, but It will last forever, so dig for one that is true and straight, with nice symmetry to the forge.

Yeah, I love tiger striping. I have a handful of stuff, hammers, axe handles, etc. I can't resist it when I spot it. The Dalluge in front is the only one that would actually last, with grain perfectly parallel to the swing. Tiger striping is great but it usually comes with sketchy crooked graining that would split pretty quickly.

Here’s a city I never see on superdenim, probably because the weather is miserable for heavyweight denim most of the year- Miami. I took my new S0510XX 19oz for a walk to my favorite bar downtown for lunch. I know this thread has turned into the photography thread, but I’m not photographer, and these are Iphone shots.

My hood (Brickell, for those familiar with Miami)

Heading over the Miami river into downtown. You can see high rises on south beach in the far distance.

Typical of this area…New highrise condos, pools on the 10th floor.

Great bar- very unlike the rest of this flashy city

What I came for- pulled pork sandwich with fried pickles (!) on top and tater tots

Knight center, right across the street. Shaq got his PhD from Barry University here this morning- too bad I missed him.0DdWx.jpg

My first WAYJDT post. Well, not of me but of my girlfriend

Went to San Francisco over the weekend to visit a friend. Had breakfast at Union Square with my girlfriend. SF is great. Lots of good food, shopping and plenty to see. Looking forward to my next visit.

Maybe not that exciting, but last weekend was beautiful in Chicago.

Went to the lake front.

Wearing the world tour flat heads... Medine left them with me, so might as well wear them while I figure out where they're supposed to go next.

Cupcakes from Sprinkles. Look like breasts, taste like heaven.

Happy 4th! I did what any red blooded American should do...grill! (I was wearing cut off denim so it should still count right?)

Fired up the Ole' Faithful

Then I stuffed my stomach tight and then made room for these

After that we laid about for a few hours then watched firepops (as my Son calls them) but my poor lens couldn't reach a reasonable distance to photograph. Anyways, I hope you've all enjoyed your day!
