You're going to have to start a deerskin smuggling operation. The next version of the shirt will need to be called "The Bootleg Buck".

So about a 1:5 bag to pairs of boots ratio, then?

Do you need a jacket?  Do you like this one?  If yes, then it's not silly.

We wear all kinds of items that aren't being used for their original purpose- dive watches, engineer boots, baseball caps, etc.  This is no different.

And for what it's worth, putting them in the freezer is utterly pointless.

Wash them.

@Giles I wish you could've made it, but I guess recovering from surgery is an acceptable excuse. It was great to see @Madame-Buttonfly, @Alex, @Danny-RnH, and @Clint_D, though.

And a Self Edge only 75 miles away; will wonders never cease...

Holy crap, The movement on that Montblanc is fantastic looking.  I think the watch would look better in a rose gold case, though.  The oxidized bronze doesn't really mesh with the refined look the watch has overall, in my opinion.

Ewwww…. [emoji847]

What?  I was talking about my favorite hammer.

You people have your mind in the gutter…

Well, damn. I've been wanting these forever. I suppose I should log in more often, so I don't get blindsided when things pop up on Instagram.

@Matt:

@goosehd im pretty sure the position of mod is punishment, not promotion.

Not entirely wrong.

@Giles:

Keep dreaming :-). The problem is the minimum run is enourmous.

Dammit.

C'mon, Gav- you know I have a hard time telling the great cities of the world apart.

By the way, how old is Tommytron now? 17ish?

@Megatron1505:

2013?

Can’t wait to be back and have no idea who 90% of everyone is ‍️

I’ll bring name tags 

That NYC? If so, I'm pretty sure it's fall 2012.

@neph93:

Tightness of weave is at least as important if not more so. Many people experience the 21oz to be more comfortable in warm weather than the 14oz due to how relaxed the weave of the 21oz is.

Weave tightness is way more important. Hottest pair of jeans I ever owned was a pair 13.5oz denim. And while I don't have a pair currently, I wore the 21oz 634S denim for years through Houston summers,  which many would consider warm and humid.

@Giles:

I want this on a tshirt.

@Giles:

He's very proud of it, but I am not sure he entirely likes it…..Undecided whether he will sell in Japan.

This reminds me of how he felt about the double indigo. Luckily, that worked out ok and he seemed to warm to it eventually.

@Giles:

Billed as 14 but the way he have woven is that it is super dense to give it a dark face so it feels more like 17oz. Traditional broken twill denim is woven under very high tension to give it a smooth face, ours is woven with lower tension in the earl to give the face plenty of character.

All cuts would be the plan…..

I only had to wait twelve years for Haraki to warm up to the idea…

(or is this one of those things he doesn't like, but decided to do because you convinced him it could work in the international market?)
