RE: Atelier LaDurance
I heard Gerard Backxx no longer continue ALD?
I have couples of their tees and a khaki jacketOh and I think all of their stuffs are at clearance here in the Netherlands and no new release, maybe the sign of discontinuity?

RE: Where does everyone live?
Paris has the only 45rpm retail store in Europe, right? The only reason I'd go back to Paris is to drool all the stuff in that store

RE: Other Brands of Jeans
@simon626:
hahaha yea, i definitely would not wear my IH around China or South Eastern Asian country….It's humid, hot, and the rain is warm sometimes....
Still, i'd bring my IH's with me and at least wear them once in that country so that i can say my IH have been to that country! ^_^
I was wearing my 634s the whole month last year on my holiday in Indonesia and they're still comfortable to wear even when one day reached 40 degrees celcius. I guess I'm just used to the warm weather there

RE: (FitPics/ WAYWT) of Other Brands
I'm currently hanging my 634s to work on another jeans for a local denim contest me and my friend run in Indonesia.
Got myself a Real McCoy's 613a sz 30 last year, which I think suit me well at first. Now that I'm getting fatter, the jeans seems a lil bit to fitted for a World War cut and plus they shrink like hell after their initial machine wash at 60 degrees. I think I should getting a sz 31 or 32 from now on.
Here's how they look right now, I'm satisfied with them nevertheless

RE: IH-634S - 21oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo
my 634s the first time I got them from Giles
almost a year
now I'm stacking too much fat on my belly and thigh and they seem a lil bit tight to me. Nevertheless 634s will always be my favourite jeans

RE: Are you a RAW (STF), Selvedge, un-sanforized loyalist ?
As long as it's Indigo dyed, I'm loyal, no matter it's unsanforized or sanforized. I don't know why I don't like black denim.

reposting these 634s
Had them almost a year, with 5-7months of effective wearing, lost count of wash
Had to take some pics last weekend because the sun is somewhat shining for a while

RE: Stuff you want to buy/dreaming of
^ I believe the one with built-in rucksack is Irvine Parka
tenzing and mallory are basically a sportscoat with wool and ventile in some parts.
I have the blue Mallory from their FW 09 I guess, got them for half the price
I think most of Cabourn's stuffs are worth spending €€€, especially the outerwear

RE: Stuff you want to buy/dreaming of
I want all Tenzing and Mallory jacket from Nigel Cabourn.

RE: The Evolution of Iron Heart
I don't really give the jeans special treatment regarding washing frequency, just trying to wear them hard and wash them when i'd like to. And if they turn out to be holy-grail material then I'm thinking it as a bonus of wearing an already great jeans in the first place

RE: The Evolution of Iron Heart
thanks shuba, these shit gets better after each wash, I'm thinking of washing them weekly/bi-weekly
btw my cat used my 634s as its bed when he's like 1 month old, and started to gain fetish towards IH afterwards
