I recently lost some weight, and I can fit back into all my old jeans! Pulled on No1 Special silver selvage 2001s this morning (tag 38, more like 35"). It really is lovely fabric. I'm not sure how muc

Crash, as requested. A rare fit pic, channelling the '90s. I think both the jacket and 2513s were bought in '97.

hey guys, so with all the activity about handpainted pockets (CTB's new joints, and the instore painting day) I thought, hey, I've painted art before, why don't I try that myself, how hard could it be?

Hehe, Well I looked through the forum and saw a post that recommended using acrylic and enamel paints, both of which I happened to have at home. I took an old pair of crummy jeans and first up is the enamel...bad idea, the enamel i had was much too thin and just ended up soaking into the denim...that and i realized I used the wrong shaped brush. Strike one.

Next up is the acrylic and two different types of brushes. This worked a bit better but getting a solid looking arcuate wasn't as easy as i had imagined either, Dang! This is kinda tricky! On one pocket i tried cream, the other i tried blue, neither looked very impressive (in terms of both technique and aesthetics).

After a few hours I went back to check on them and I became even less impressed! The paint dried very matte finish, and slightly crisp. I didn't have the textile print medium to make the paint more rubbery, will have to pick that up for the next round of tests. I am also going to look for some more glossy paint...any suggestions? I don't have a digital camera at the house right now, I'll try to post some pics in the next couple days if anybody is interested...maybe after I try a few more times and get some variety of tests.

I initially had the thought of taking the embroidered arcs off one of my evisu's and handpainting the pockets....after my first test tonight I don't know if that is such a good idea anymore. That or maybe I just rushed it all...

Anyone else have any experience with this?

I've never tried it myself, but as far as I'm aware it's just acrylic-based textile paint that's used.

They normally recommend exposing it to heat once done, using either a hair-dryer or pressing a hot iron on top of the paintwork for a few seconds. You need to make sure that the iron's 'dry', so to speak, as any steam will make the paintwork crack...

That any use?

Thanks again Ed for getting these to me, and cheers to Paulo for spotting these on Yahoo Japan...

The jeans are in perfect deadstock condition, still pretty rigid and unmarked:

The rise is pretty high on these (just over 12) so the fit is tighter than I'd expected...Going to have to wear these in the bath for their soak tomorrow. Fit looks good though, imho:

This is true, fucking small world...I got an email apologising for the jeans having been sent to a different customer...then found out that the other customer was Ed....

Bear in mind that it could have been anything that was bought via proxy, and by anyone in the world...and it just happened to be another SuFu regular who saw my posts and put two and two together...Too fucked up, but in a good way :)

So....Tasty. I wonder how these will compare to the No13Left's you're getting, seeing that they're both lefthand.

Fuck knows what happened to those jeans, I'm going to be catching up with those people tomorrow when they're in town with Kanji and I'll try and find out what's going on...Not too bothered about the N0.13 jeans now though, not when I've got those 2101s to wear...

NO!!! :eek:
