        That dude is 20 miles from me…...could be an expensive piece of information.

        Dare I ask how much your sleeve has cost you so far man?

        Ha, do it mate. His work is proper good.

        I forget how much the black one cost because it was done a while ago.
        The latest one was £90 a hour. Had about 18 hours done….

          How do I explain to my Date I can't carry her keys and phone?  I'm not trying to fuck up my fades. Haha. #denimnerd

              suggest she buy a pair of IH denim so she can start her own fades whilst holding her own possessions in her own pockets  😉

                gave my MBB's their first wash yesterday (40 degrees celsius, 900rpm, little detergent)…

                that 25oz denim is just brilliant 😘 not as stiff as i thought it would end up after the wash. since most of the starch came out (i think) they're now really really comfortable to wear (always was tbh.!)...
                the waist shrunk back to normal and overall they're a great fit again...

                gonna post measurements and fitpics during the day i think...

                  two options.

                  a) tell her she doesn't need her keys or phone on a date, leave them in the car

                  b) tell her to get a purse

                  either way no use messing up your fades over some dame

                    Report from the SEPDX opening party, at which I repp'd both HWDCII and HWBC items:

                    After the "interesting" conversation between my wife and I over the cost of a certain MF-produced bandana ("Yeah, but its limited edition…"), it was quite welcome for her to send me casually and merrily on my way back to Self-Edge PDX.

                    The hits of the night included beer by Bridgeport, a peek at the darning and chainstitching machines, a visit from Roy Slaper (who is quite tall in person, and who I heard ask, more than once, "Well, what's your favorite Murakami novel?")

                    Tyler (who I referred to as Zach several times over the evening, as I had been awake for the better part of about 30 hours by that point, exacerbated by free beer) and I nerded out over a few products, Kiya and I watched Roy think about fixing an armoire, I watched Kiya juggle a few hundred thought processes and relationships effortlessly and seamlessly, and in the end, I made off with the beautiful SE 1937 Zippo (purchased at a price more in line with my wife's thinking...).  A fun time was had by all.

                                Really great look. And that shirt. I can't wait for mine to look like that.

                                Fat dudes need good clothes too.

                                    thanks a lot gents (fanya, mahlon, tat and JSJ)…really happy with the altered fit!
                                    they'd look like bootcuts if i wouldn't have done that...

                                      Nice fit Rafa.

                                      I think once you have to hem them a fair amount then a taper is always on the cards.

                                      Do IH or any company ever do a shorter leg version of a cut? Say a 33 or 34 leg.
