FIRST WEAR

 

[sole searchin]

Trying to see where I can get some 10+ year old Samurai’s I’ve been wearing repaired.

No real shops in Houston that I know of so any recs for shipping out for repair/reinforcement? Contacted Indigoproof but no response.

i hear that railcar fine goods is a good one if you're willing to ship to them.

 

[KnowTheLedge]

I go with rail car all the time. Their jeans aren’t bad either

 

[ninjatoes]

i'm curious: what size leg opening are you folks going with for sneakers?

 

[KnowTheLedge]

I don’t like skinny, tight jeans, or too tapered where my jeans go inside the liner of my shoes. I don’t like the tongue and heel* sticking out of my low top shoes. I’m a little older, I just like my jeans right. Not baggy, not extremely tight. Just a little taper. I get mine at 7.5 inches. I could get away with 7, but really like mine comfortable. It’s all preference.

went 1.5 years in some momo's
just picked up some black 20oz oni's (the blue in greene secret denim collab)

I used to go with a small leg opening like 6.75-7inches but past few years, I’m around 8 inches with a single cuff with trainers as I’m not wearing high top shoes much anymore.

I need to get back to the regular/d mid to taper fit

ive been wearing slim/skinny Acne and APC for about 2-3 years now

ready to commit to full selvedge again

 

[KingJamesTheFifth]

Not that it matters in regards to what I’m wearing or not but I definitely foresee raw/selvedge/Japanese coming back into play in regards to being trendy again some time soon

Yeah, I’ve been wearing selvedge consistently since 2012 and I just don’t see myself wearing anything else. I mix in dickies and carhartt here and there but I’m always buying from Self Edge.

Yeah I just started getting back into workwear after spending a lot on hype.

I want to check out Butterscotch in LBC one weekend

Fade progress on my Steady Eddie's. These have been my best pair of denim by far. I've been through Gap Selvedge (blowouts beyond repair), Unbranded Raw Denim (slaughtered my taper by getting them done on the outseam instead of inseam ), Lee Left 101 Riders (still in rotation today) https://www.therstore.com/product/id/1043/LEE-101-101-Rider-Dry-Left-Hand-Twill, and now to these Nudies. Love the free repairs from my local Nudie shop and I get compliments on these all the time with the way they fit

One year. No washes

Spoiler: Pics or DuckTales

 

[s dubl]

That free repair with nudies really has me contemplating those being my next project. Maybe in a few years from now.

can't commit to full selvedge until my kids are a bit more grown

can't handle not only a two year old getting **** on my jeans but also a 4 year old

the 6 year old is fine

just bought a pair of raw APC Petite Standards a few months ago and they sit in my closet

 

[jamie dimon]

having kids stop you from wearing jeans?

 

[hipstermike]

sometimes i want to get a bike just to speed up fading process

Visiting Tokyo in July for the first time. Can anyone recommend a factory in the Tokyo or Okayama/Kojima region that id be able to make my own custom pair. Will be my 30th and I want to experience making my own pair.

from fabric, rivets, patch, etc. everything...

Definitely helps with fades in the thigh and crotch region but I've heard it will accelerate blowouts so wash more frequently if you're a regular biker.

Search reddit or superfuture. I've heard of people doing this but just curious what brands have you owned in the past? maybe there's something you could pick up in Japan.

My coworker is trying to get me into visvim denim

I’m not in that tax bracket yet lol

Yeah, Visvim is way too much. There’s plenty of denim brands with higher quality at half the cost.

The only jeans I wear currently are something I can throw in the wash freely whenever they’re visibly dirty

Don’t want to do that with raw jeans
