BROTHERHOOD OF BIB
-
Haha, I suppose I deserved that @ARNC
Who knows, maybe once in a antique silver goblet-fueled stupor you'll wake the next morning to find a shipping confirmation, qty 1 rocking pair of bibs
That hasn’t happened to me yet, but who knows
Maybe we need a new category of “lay brothers” or something for guys who appreciate what the brothers are doing but haven’t (yet?) committed and taken their vows?
-
Welcome to the Brotherhood, novitiate ( @ARNC ). You're welcome even as you consider donning the garb of the Brotherhood.

I love the natty belt @Filthy and the fades are a-mah-zing!
I have my bibs hung up for now, as they are only 12oz and that is no match for the sub freezing temps here in Maryland lately. I do look forward to wearing them with just a pair of Birkenstocks and an old cut up t shirt this summer.
-
Thanks. I love the belt too. I was worried about the large buckle and it being uncomfortable but it is very comfortable and keeps my pants up well because it is so wide b

The truth is that I have some issues with how I look (I always pick more form-fitting clothes for fear that I'll look fat) and the bibs aren't exactly a tailored look
I SO feel ya on this. Dunno about you, but people fucking with me as a chubby kid did a goddamn number on my self perception — gotta love childhood! ::)
That said, obv you have nothing to worry about. Also, I've been inching away pretty aggressively from the tight-ass stuff of the oughts / skinny jeans era. I think form-fit stuff is nice, but it's good for it to have some drape — I'm really into very straight leg jeans these days, think it definitely works on tall/skinny guys. As for a baggier shirt, I say there's nothing wrong with that loose-fit Madchester look, personally
So anyway, I ramble, but the TLDR version is that I think the bibs look fucking rad, and that the 21oz is indeed the best IH denim.

Former chubby kids unite, @popvulture!

…and yes the 21oz is magic (as is everything IH does). I get endlessly ribbed by my denimhead buds about only buying IH but DGAF.
-
I mean, it's kinda far superior to everything else, if we're being honest? I feel like that's obvious.
I do like a couple other brands just fine: Mister Freedom (great fits), PBJ (rad but often too skinny / low rise for my taste), RMC, Ooe…
But the IH denim just feels the best, zero question. Whenever I go back to it after wearing some other stuff for a stint, I'm like "ahhhhhhh."
-
I love RMC for all non-denim and have always wanted to get into PBJ but … too slim for me. I only hear rave reviews from others. I keep skipping out on Ooe cause I'm so used to 21oz and anything else feels like paper. But S&S is just across the Bay Bridge from me and I have no excuse.
-
Haha yeah dude you should hit up S&S for sure! God, I spend enough money there already remotely — I can't imagine how bad it'd be if I could actually go to the store…
But yeah, PBJ is cool but it's definitely so slim. I have a pair the kakishibu slim straights from Okayama Denim and they're super cool, but I don't wear them a ton — they're "straight" but are really some of the skinniest jeans I own. Overall though I'd say I'm not crazy about slubby denim, but PBJ do it the best as far as I'm concerned.
Just to push this back on-thread (I tend to derail) I think 21oz indigo/black tonal bibs would be beyond sick.

Ugh don't I know it. They're rad ppl, too.
I second your thoughts on that new kinda of bib…
-
While it would take some after-the-fact apologies to Morgan, Indigo/Black bibs would be rad for sure.
-
Never thought id say that but man thanks to this thread, i definitely need a bib !! Everybody's looking ace !
