@Jett129:

Adam was a very helpful contributor.

and all around awesome hippie mellow beer, bud and blue jeans appreciator

[Jett129]

And a really cool artist. Corresponded with him last time I was in Denver,but he was in Santa Fe,so we didn’t get to meet.

[madmonday]

glad you mentioned his art @Jett129

Those creations he used to post images of were pretty cool and the textures were something interesting

I'm going to go troll the art thread he used to always post in, I'm pretty sure I have his email in my contacts going to drop him a line and let him know he is appreciated

[neph93]

He’s on Instagram as well, both with the art and denim stuff.

Who is Adam and why’d he get banned? Don’t be vague. I want dirt
Please. Sitting on a train to Stamford right now. @neph93

[sabergirl]

FWIW, I don’t think it’s fair to talk about banned members who can’t participate in the conversation any more. Whether the talk is good, or bad.

Oh you. Yeah you’re right. Crap.

[Chris]

We aren't going to discuss why people were banned.  As sabergirl pointed out, it's rude, and I don't think it does anything positive for the overall forum vibe.

[Matty123]

Yeah^ read above. That’s why I said she was right. But correct me if I’m wrong you said he didn’t contribute to the forum.

@Chris:

No. Really not.

[UnTucked]

Convo is done.

[Matty123]

Ok. I like a good row. I will stop. I guess sarcasm
And tongue in cheek doesn’t show itself well on a text forum.

Sorry if I offended anyone @Chris

Looks like Target is getting in on the selvedge craze: https://www.target.com/p/men-s-slim-straight-fit-selvedge-denim-rigid-jeans-goodfellow-co-153-indigo/-/A-52512065

Reviews are amusing too 

[louisbosco]

people giving negative reviews like "why would anyone want a button fly" or "my husband really didn't like the button fly"

and i'm sitting here like "why tf would anyone want a zipper fly?"

[lester_galula]

Agreed, button fly >>> zipper fly

[AdamJ]

I liked 'trendy selvedge construction' in the product description

[Dion]

I love the button fly on my jeans but a zip fly on chinos/pants (e.g. 707, 816) is great, too.

The fewer moving parts a thing has, all the better as far as I'm concerned. I'd have buttons on everything (well, things that warrant them obviously). That said, There's something about Mary would be the same film.

Franks and beans…

[Matty123]

How’d you get the beans above the frank?!

[Matty123]

I still can NOT get the bottom button of the 888xhsib buttoned.

I don’t know if it’s because the 888 cut has an extra button or what but this is some tough denim! I haven’t used any tricks or dowels or pliers because I’m not a cheater…. but I’m tempted.
