Patiently waiting for that latest Studio D hickory button up in the mail and of course more warehouse tees

iron heart needs to hurry up and drop that wabash short sleeve button up
 
Is crotch blowout inevitable or nah? Trying to avoid it on my pbjs and iron hearts. I generally wait 6 months to a year for first soak.
Bunch of things cause it .. pants too tight pants too loose and low .. riding a bike or walking up and down mad stairs etc over time it stresses that area

I think if you catch it before it truly happens and blows out on you ,you can get it “Darned” or whatever or some jeans are even reinforced from the inside with added fabric tape/ another layer
 
Been on a hunt for some warehouse DD-1001XX with the arches and red tab (japan exclusive due to the levis lawsuit) in my larger size.

didn’t know Hinoya.shop ships internationally so I tried it out, will report back when they come in

will probably hunt a heavier ounce red tab samurai pair for the winter too. Also re-stumbled on the superdenim forum on superfuture/supertalk. This feels like 08 again, definitely forgot all about that message board.
 
Depends on what you’re into. SF is probably a good starting point but a lot of posters there don’t seem to have as much experience as those a decade ago (see archibald London handwelt thread). The Fedora Lounge had a thread that went down a rabbit hole on the Real McCoys brand that SF doesn’t have, not sure on sufu.

A lot of SF also has a weird obsession with measurements when the reality is they’re average body type and they’d be fine going TTS. There’s countless threads where guys will obsess over measurements only to get the garment and have it fit bad.
 
I will be ordering from Hinoya from now on. 2 day shipping from Tokyo. Finally got my hands on red tab Warehouse denim

exxctly why I’m reluctant to buy jeans I can’t try on. Had the same issues with PBJs and Iron Hearts.
 
I def gained some inches I’m barely fitting in these momos today
If I dropped less than 20$ on the floor it wouldn’t be worth the embarrassment of tryna pick it up
 
Favourite Levi's number(s)? 501 & 512 for me.

I hate 512s, just bought 4 pairs that I am gonna have to get rid of.

Anyway it's page 501 and I just got the last of my Levi's haul...

2 pairs of my Made and Crafted selvedge jeans came with the blank tab, so that's cool.

When it comes to non "made & crafter"/premium stuff. Certain Levi's models aren't as consistent when it comes to qc. There's like quality tiers when it comes to places you buy their stuff.
