I picked up a pair of these, new no tags on the bay. Perfect size for me, very nice weave (silly price, a bit hens teeth?)
Wash like my normal 25oz?

RE: Booksposted in Hobbies and Pastimes
I think you got auto-corrected ^ I assume you’re taking about Neal Asher who is indeed great fun.
Think I sub consciously mistyped, I used to work with a Neal Archer who also read SF.
Neal Asher. Thank you

RE: Booksposted in Hobbies and Pastimes
Not really a fantasy fan usually, but I was recommended Robin Hobb's "The Assassin's Apprentice" recently and it's excellent.
If you like Heinlein-style space opera, I recommend Elliott Kay's "Poor Man's Fight" series. He also has an excellent series of urban fantasy X (light) eroticism novels…
If you like a light Space Opera Neal Archer has written some fun stuff (I read them all early lockdown).
When I was younger I really liked Roger Zelazny, his Amber books were fun but Lord of Light and Creatures of Light and Darkness had much more depth. Short stories were good too (A Rose for Ecclesiastes)
Talking of which currently re-reading the exact same edition of Mr Pirsig's famous work. 41 years after the first and I still get lots from it.

@Al:
thing is the slight Riding breech look at the upper thigh (not a big problem but I know you had this too)
That drops out with wear as the denim softens and moulds to your shape and movement.
Didn't think I noticed on your pics so just assumed it was not a break in situ - Thanks

…@Filthy it was the lowest button for me, had to button that one up while not wearing them. Brutal. :o
...your review is spot on.
I know the sun (we get some on occasion) is bright in that pic but do I get the sense of a slightly oiled look / feel to them?
I am interested in the boiling that you and Filthy talk about. I really like my indigo 888 25oz! only thing is the slight Riding breech look at the upper thigh (not a big problem but I know you had this too)
