        thanks monday
        the greenland wax is perfect for a not so serious guy like me

        finn, there's basically no smell, certainly nothing unpleasant, I did it all indoors and my wife never complained

          How should I decide what the best length is for my 666XHS'es?.. I measured my SEXIH07bks and they measure 31.8 but they're a tad too long… If I cuff the XHS'es to the length I want them to be, the hem measures 2.5", and they measure 33" now, so I'd need a 30.5"... My ALDs measure closer to 31" though... Should I play it on the safe side and get them hemmed to 31.5 or should a 31 inseam do (I'm only 5.75')?.. Any advice on how to accurately decide on the length?..

          Thanks.

                  Yeah the 512xx'es look really good!.. 3007 looks a bit tight, but I know you like your jeans like that so disregard!..

                  (So jealous on you having snow btw…)

                      the button holes of my sr need a little repair–-they begin to fray...the third hole is not ready;-)

                      the 25 oz 634 begin to fray too….preventative stitching around the two button holes-the third never button up:-)

                        jaco- that is the coolest thing i've seen in a long time. Seems way easier than using barbour. Thanks!

                            have been washed & the stray stitches & mess have been clipped & they are just waiting to make the trip to get repaired.  i need more time in the day or maybe an additional few hours in the day to get stuff done  😠

                            guess it's worse problems to have, so i'll stop the whining 😉

                                  they aren't being worn as i can not afford to get arrested for indecent exposure.  just looked up at ALEX1976's buttonhole job. great preventive maintenance job & i like the black thread.

                                        I've got a pair of Strike Golds with the Denim Doctor for tapering and repair. He seems like a good guy, you guys have had some positive experience with him right?

                                          IIRC then Seul had his 634s tapered by him and he was more than happy with the outcome…so i think you shouldn´t worry about it!
