          There will be pics, probably at the weekend! I've tried them on at work already, and will change into them when I leave but they're not really office wear….!

                        The reason I thought they were new was because of the label…..but I guess it was your Bread and Butter pass?

                        Mine are starting to show signs of wear - I'll try to get round to taking some pics.

                        What size are yours?

                          Giles, any chance of these making an appearance again? I love overalls for the winter, and I want to switch to good ones. I'd be wanting a size 30 probably, based on the sizing recommendations.

                                Mine are size 30. I'm 5 ft 10, 78 kgs, W32 in Iron Heart. I don't need to cuff my pair. I imagine they're designed to be worn looser than I wear them but I prefer them better fitting.  Watch the nipple chafing straps 😞  I guess @trail and arrow 's are a bit bigger than mine, so he may not suffer from that problem despite what is said about him in that department 😉  I'm planning on saving up for a spare pair in January, may be a trip down to Gosport to beat the winter blues!

                                          The patch on my overalls went nearly black when it got soaked in some mud and water:

                                          The overalls had not been washed or soaked - it was their 1st contact with water. The soil is light brown almost yellow clay with some run-off from sandstone so wouldn't have been acidic. Any ideas why it happened and how to restore it @swiss-jeansfreak and @Giles ?

                                            Since I have no experiences about washing because I never wash or soak my raw denim stuff, I have no idea how you can reverse this. I don't think this is possible. But Giles knows more about this I assume.
                                            But the overall look already amazing break. Keep go rock them hard for ever!!!

                                            Really roughest vintage or raw denim rags deserves to survive for ever! So never throw away any raw denim rags - Use them as long as possible and when it comes to their end - there is a safe place where your favorite items can rest in peace for ever in the Jeansmseum ruedi.karrer@jeansmuseum.org
