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...

[spitfiredealer]

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.

^ that'd be lovely! check the "random rants" thread for the ongoing discussion

Actually can't wait for the cold weather to return. Wearing these 25oz at the moment is sweaty to say the least.

[Josh James]

You're a fucking nutter.

[spitfiredealer]

I've decided to post this here since it's still heavyweight related. So, a little backstory: I love the work that Ray at The Blackacre did with my wallet so much that I decided to ask him about making me another one. I kept the cuttoffs from my MBBs and purchased one of the Iron Heart silver rings. I asked Ray about making a wallet that would incorporate both - a heavyweight wallet if you will. I don't have it in my possession yet, but the teaser photo that Ray sent me has me too excited not to share.
And without further ado - here is what will soon be my Blackacre wallet with 25oz iron heart denim.

Brilliant.

Now that it's cooling off in the evening I can try to get a bit more wear before I start wearing them full time again in Autumn.

[fanya]

That wallet is brilliant

Crap, I think I was thinking mega said 3 months per challenge so I was thinking end of sept for the second one, we are so busy with the little kids and work.. The zoo is as great outdoors as it gets..

Also did some half ass repairs on these babies, hopefully it holds till I can pay someone to do a real repair or two.

[Megatron1505]

Honestly, I don't really care how long it takes so long as people do the challenges….it's what keeps all this rolling on and fun.

So here's my late entry in the "Denim In Nature" challenge.  Last week, we went on vacation and spent a pleasant afternoon at the beach, or "down the Shore", as they say in Jersey.

Some parasailing going on nearby:

Also a bit of fishing:

This is as close as I got to either:
