Other Brands of Jeans

Giles posted some pics of his FBJ-101 ( http://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=104.45 ) it made me take some pics of the first Japanese denim item I bought as is very similar to Giles's item - I purchased over 10 years ago but has not been worn a great deal - especially after Evisu flooded the market with mass produced naff denim !
Evis No 2 with Scovill rivets.

I know. You are the only customer, thus far, that I have had to carry missing lablels all the the way to New York for… G

Opposite of me. I discard bags and tags instantaneously. Spontaneous combustion (if I plan on keeping the item just purchased).

http://andewhall.bigcartel.com/Ande makes beautiful jeans. His attention to detail is unbelievable….
We can do anything

Beatle‚ first contact with Ande has been established ! Jeans are made to order…could be some time before they make the 12k mile trip...
Giles hope you don't think I am a Judas...the NZ/Selvedge connection was a 'no-brainer' for me (Neil who bought the FH1001 getting a pair too)
Iron Heart will always be Number 1

hey giles, i noticed in the picture of some of your jeans on the first page that the first one on the top from the left is a Steam Locomotive. just wondering if you can give me some insight into how you like them and what cut you got? i know they have a xx denim and a xxx denim, could you please perhaps shed some light on the difference if you happen to know??? thanks

They are TSL. I am now going to be a big disappointment to you - I have no idea. They are the baggy ones and the denim is super slubby. It fades great, but the cotton used for stitching, in my opinion, is way off being up to the job. I blew the front right hand pocket stitching (the RHS is always first to go with me) in about 2 weeks.

^ no disappointment giles, i appreciate all of the questions you have been able to answer for me and this is no exception. really really glad to know that it is super slubby… tho hearing the stitching will be inferior, or at least as you said not being up to the job. Thats a bit of a turn off to them as i tear through each and every pair of jeans i have, minus the 2004's...but i'm working on it and here will be the first place to see what happens! ::)
