I love Dorrit..Tender is living proof that every generation can add valuable input to creating a unique product.
Unfortunately the jeans are way to wide for my fit specs - but the process of making is fantasticWe can do anything

Do these guys have an outlet other than Superdenim.co.uk? I like the look of the new work shirts but I'm not sure I want to put any business through the SD!

They have several stockists in the US as well. Hickoree's Hard Goods in NYC, Unionmade in SF, and Douglas Fir in LA. Pretty sure that there are others, but I can't think of them off the top of my head.

This was at the bottom of the list so I thought I'd bring some life into this thread with some pics of my new 129's with my Tender Co. belt.
With my Schmidt shirt. I bought these 129's on clearance so I bought a size 4 which is a tiny bit too big, but I like the fit and the price was right.
Blue selvedge line
Leg twist with contrast stitching
Calico lined belt loops (William is friggin' nuts I swear)
Calico lined snob pocket (coin/thumb pocket)
Lost wax cast top button
With one beast of a belt. The blue enameled buckle is already chipping showing off the white and brass underneath. I can't wait to see it evolve!
I can't say enough good things about these pants. The attention to detail is amazing and the details make them very unique. I would definitely buy them again.

My new "Hands On" watch.

Nice jeans, watch and belt there. In fact, I really need a Tender belt in my life.
I've got a pair of what William Kroll calls black out 130s. No pictures (yet) as they're currently in storage at the other end of the country. They're a looser cut than Anesthetist's 129s, but most of the details are similar. The main difference is that the stitching has been done in dark blue or black, making them much cleaner looking. As the jeans fade it should become apparent, and since I belong to the InjunJack school of washing denim, it'll work out for me.
The denim shrank an awful lot in the first wash, and they don't currently fit. If you haven't soaked yours yet Anesthetist, you might get a better fit.
What I really like are the pockets. The bags are made of the same denim as the jeans, and a couple of the seams are eliminated.

A limited selection of previous season Tender goods are now available at the Tender Stores.
I like the Lambskin vest, but am too heroically built to fit it.

Where did they find a big wooly mammoth?!
Pretty sweet.

There hasn't been any love for Tender for a while, so I thought that I'd bump this thread.
I'd posted a comment on the Tender thread at Superfuture wondering what a loops belt would look like if it got dropped into a vat of logwood dye. William Knoll, the man behind the brand, thought it would be a good idea, or at least played along with it.
So I put an order in through the Tender Stores on Friday, and this turned up today.
I love the packaging that was used.
The jeans, above, are a pair of unborn Type 130s that were done as a special run for Tenue de Nimes a couple of years back. They've got stealth stitching that's starting to show up now they're fading.
-
I wear my tender belt everyday and wear my watch frequently. I don't wear my 129s as much as I would like, but I just have too many pants!
-
My 130s have been seeing a lot of wear recently as I put on a bit of weight in the second half of last year, and a couple of pairs don't fit so well now.
Anesthetist, have you seen the version of your belt with the black buckle? It looks rather nice…
-
I have seen it and it looks great. I'll post some pics of my blue belt when I get home today or tomorrow. The leather looks excellent, but the chipped up buckle is the star of the show.

I'm glad you did, Graeme! It has really taken on a lot of personality. Truly a beautiful piece.
