WAYWT - The Hard Labour Edition aka "Working in your workwear".

Yay happy I found this thread!
Wearing 777S-14. Sewed my own taper on these babies. That way I could only be mad at myself if I messed up.
Patching drywall after electricians and plumbers in different apt. units today.
-
So pleased you found it @RoxRocks86
Let me get this straight though, you've hemmed your own jeans or actually put a taper in? Either way great work.
How are you finding the 14oz for working in?
-
Thanks @neph93 IH did the hemming and I did the taper to my preference.
They’re great for work! The area the job site is in gets pretty rainy, windy and chilly (chilly for Hawaii - mid 50s/low 60s). It does a nice job of keeping me comfortable in those conditions. Love how the material feels sturdy. I’m notorious for brushing up against stuff but these haven’t gotten any rips or scars yet. Kinda wish they had more pockets like carpenter pants tho.

Dang wasn’t digging the stripes at first, but saw the fades on the indigo wabash thread and they look great as they get used and abused!
Adding these in on my next splurge. -
This thread rules.
I posted these years ago but here is a pair of SRs after a few years of industrial construction in Chicago. Unfortunately I have lost a lot of weight and these dont xome close to fitting me any more. Now they just hang in the closet.
I need to ditch my uniform pants at work and destroy some more IH.
-
Had to take the IHSH-33 off, kept the 777s on & put in some real work to make dat money!
-
Gotta pay for that gear somehow, amirite?
-
Especially when that IH list keeps growing…

@RoxRocks86 have you seen Sig Zane’s work Gloves he released today? I posted a link below
-
@Matty123 haven’t heard of him until your post. But dang those are some inzane gloves! Love the design & story behind them. You picking up a pair?
@neph93 the end goal is to get the mud on the wall not your clothes
I used to look like your snowman at the end of the day, but a bucket of water and a sponge can be your best friend & not using your clothes to wipe mud off your hands and knives helps. The only day my clothes get extra muddy is when I’m running the bazooka.@brock love the cruise mode!
-
Sig Zane is amazing. He loves Hawaii and the culture. All his clothes and patterns have a story. Yiu should check it all out.
I’m not buying a pair. I am not making any non essential purchases for the foreseeable future! Tightening the belt.
-
^ ha glad you’ve got that thing they call self-control!
Giving the 777S-21 some love this week.
This baby is a trooper! Love how it’s kept me dry and comfortable while getting blasted by April showers. Also the breathablility of the fabric during this muggy weather with temps swinging from 65F-80F throughout the day is amazing. Haven’t felt hot with all the climbing and running around I do.
-
@RoxRocks86 you are winning this thread. I’m going to give you a run for your money in a month or two when building season starts here, but you’re the champ right now.

Love this thing can’t go a day w/o it.
