          they don't shrink that much, I had a Large 51, that was not bad fitting, but had some room to… now it fits perfect.

            Where can I get some high-quality long johns / union suits?

            Sunspel.com do some nice Merino base layers (under wear).

                      just reading the 634 world tour thread. You ever think about doing a world tour with some of the new denim?

                        I could do.  But they tours we did rather died a death.  I don't have time to manage it and people love the idea and then get all flaky.  If someone wants to manage a tour (and do it properly), then I'm more than happy to give up a pair of jeans..,…

                          Tours are great when people are into it, the White Knights tour we did a while back was awesome and over on SuFu there have been some great posts from shared jeans.

                          As Giles says, if a group of people are really into it and someone can organise and manage it properly it's a fun thing to participate in/ watch.

                              Totally agree! Those toast pics 🙂 must be a Japanese thing.

                                Haha. I always wondered that too. Like what's up with the toast?

                                      G, am I correct by assuming that all IH-loomstate-bottom-denims are made slightly oversized so they can shrink to the measurements a sanforized/washed model would have?

                                      If so, what is the best procedure to shrink/soak those denims (cold, lukewarm, warm, hot?) to achieve the best results for the fit and the denim itself?

                                        We aim to make them shrink to tag, BUT the problem is that different washing methods create a different amount of shrinkage.  Indeed, typically North Americans see more shrinkage than Europeans who see more shrinkage than Japanese.

                                            Why do trucker vests have pocket, but trucker jackets don't?

                                            imho the Type III is also called Trucker Jacket and has still Pockets (Breast/Side/Internal) 😉
