Gang, I have seen the light. Day 1 in the 634s 21oz. I have never felt a better feeling denim.

Happy new year, everyone! Let’s go!

This is the best first post I could think to make for this thread. I’m having myself a great day! Picked up my first two pairs today. The guys at the Osaka store are incredibly nice, and so helpful.

The nickname “Black Armor” for the 9634 is legit. Just walked the dog out in the mid 30s(F) and the wind was not getting through this denim.

TS - indigo twill
634s 21oz

Long time listener. First time caller. First wear of one of my Japan pick ups.

21oz 9634z - they aren’t kidding when they call this “black armor”. Forgive the work from home slippers. lol.

Still warm t-shirt weather in NC, despite what the foliage says. Loving these 634s even more every day.

Got the black armor 9364z on in prep for this pending “snow storm” that is headed our way in NC.

Currently two sessions in with Steve Zimonvan (Remember Me Tattoo) on my back. So stoked with how it’s looking.

Figured this 1994 unissued Romanian fleck field shirt would pair well with the 9634. Unfortunately, it’s almost too warm here to wear it today.

@SFMCfranky that’s awesome. I just usually only get lucky with a sky like that at the most random times.

@SFMCfranky this like those sunsets you only get to see in a grocery store parking lot on a random weekday. Gorgeous shot.

Recently got out and shot a roll of Kodak Ektar. Only my second roll, and I’m mad I’ve never shot it before. Got a couple shots for my on-going personal project called “6am in Greensboro” too.

@ZackB for real, Steve crushed it. I’m so pumped with it, and even happier I don’t have to sit through that again.

It’s been a minute, but we are so back. Quite literally. Finally after 5 sessions, spread out over a little over a year, 15 hours of tattooing, it’s finished. Bonus shot with Steve Zimovan. He absolutely crushed this tattoo.

@meatmarketdenim1 I’m right there with you. Old skate shirts go crazy, along with old band tees. Re-buying shirts in larger sizes has my bank account stressing. I want to worry about wearing a thin vintage shirt, scared it’s going to get “ruined”.

@meatmarketdenim1 shooooot, nope. The AoW and Turmoil shirts were from Chamber Spins. He did official runs with the bands.

The Bolt Throwers are a couple boots, because I don’t BT vintage money.

@Dystopia very cool shirt and a GREAT band. Figured I could also throw some recent grabs into the thread, as well.

@ROman thanks! Was so stoked to finally use the Fuji 100 I got in Japan. Special film for a special trip.

@SFMCfranky the colors in this are so nice!
