I like cuffing and buffalo checks, in fact I'm off to put on my biggest cuffs and my 72 right now and take a picture, ha ha ha ha ha
Question for TMT, do you hate cuffs because you can't do it? Same way as I hate ponytails… fucking hippies.
I really dunno, it's just been grinding on my nerves lately, and of course it's all personal preference. I have a few jeans that I can cuff but everytime I try by mid day they are back to stacks. Personally I my jeans to sit with just a slight bit of stack on top of my boot (like I have much option. It either that or the high water look 99% of the time) but it doesn't matter which way you slice it it seems like someone either gripes that stacks are too trendy or cuffs are…so I suppose your screwed either way in the eyes of others. Not that their option matters. More than anything it just popped into my head and I remembered the thread and thought, "where better to post than there?"
Dudes with ponytails can do gnarly hair whips while jamming to their heavy metal, though. If I try that I just get dandruff on everyone like I'm the human salt shaker. l..l <~ dio fingers

Brawny Man got it goin on. In one version he has on an IHSH-51 and in another an IHSH-49.

Ok… Like I said, I stand corrected. I meant bob villa.

Buckle back jeans are pointless.

Meh, I see the appeal to the real fans of denim culture, but It's certainly not something I want to see on a pair of jeans.

I don't agree that Roy is over priced. First, the level of detail on his work is quite high - obsessive even. Second, As a one man shop he is limited to the quantity he can produce, so he has to charge what the market will bear to make a living. Third, his stuff sells FAST. If people are willing to pay you $360 for every pair of jeans you make, with virtually nothing left sitting on the shop floor after a week, why would you charge less?
The good thing is, because there's such hype around his stuff, you can usually get decent deals from people who buy in the frenzy and then realize it's not for them.

^I'm starting to agree on the overpriced thing. $360 bucks for 11oz jeans now?!
Weight correlates to price now ?? More than material sourcing, workmanship and dare I say it….exclusivity?!?! If you voice this opinion on SuFu they will eat you.

Roy's are anything but overpriced! One man, doing something extremely well. Shit, overpriced, go buy some fucking lucky's realize what soul is and come back and make a statement like that. Guessing those who say Roy's items are overpriced have either not owned any or are just blind to what it takes to create said items…Not to mention making a profit, fucking A, why should Roy eat right! GO SHOP FOR SOME SHIT MADE IN CHINA, that should be in your price point, haters!
unpopular enough for y'all?

Roy is definitely not getting $360 for a pair of jeans he made. He is making a living (perhaps a decent living).
-
He used to sell them on his own for 150. Then kiya started selling them exclusively and they shot up to 340, you do the math. "Hey roy, ill pay you 170 a pair if I can sell them exclusively." End of story
Mofos got to get that paper!!
I used to sell gardening equipment. My wholesale price was half retail 85 percent of the time
-
That's capitalism… Nothing about that bothers me in any way. If it's good for Roy, good for him.
-
Kiya supplies the infrastructure and logistical support, Roy gets to concentrate on making the product; both make money. Nothing wrong with that at all.
