DOUBLE INDIGO 666 WORLD TOUR
-
Something arrived today…
The tour jeans arrived safe and sound accompanied by some generous treats from
@Aetas (cheers mate) and a newly purchased 162 from @Giles - I couldn't help myself haha
Tried on the jeans (although a bit snug) fit fine!
Some detail shots
Had about an hour before I have to go back to the gym, so I'm trying to snarf down an Italian sub and do some work…
Will post more tomorrow… or tonight haha

@neph93 - naw, been gaining lately lol [emoji23] so busy hadn't been working out much. Probably why the tours fit kinda snug ha
@brock - thanks dude!
Decided to give you guy a glimpse into my afternoon. Normal after I kick up the kids from their nanny on Friday's (around 1pm) my day is done so I go home, hang out and play with the kids. However, my business partner is in the Army and has drill so I was holding down the shop all day.
So after grabbing the kids and hitting some of my "corporate job" assignments, we loaded back and went back to the gym for afternoon session.
Having fun packing up the kids:
Got everyone situated and they immediately passed out

Figured I'd show you guys more pics of my "work"
I joined this business as a partner in 2012 and it's been a journey… to say the least lol
Gym is kinda dirty since we had a big crew tonight and Saturday (tomorrow) is usually a busy morning so I just blown it out and close up shop… will tidy up tomorrow in prep of the next week.
Some fit pics of the jeans:
Fit impressions: definitely more snug that I would buy for myself and the rise is lower than I would take, but the leg and hen are also slimmer than I would expect, which is a nice surprise. The denim is beautiful and super soft, and feels sturdy like 25oz and has a similar feel to the XHS. I do like the 666 cut though, although my "squat booty" isn't so sure about the top block [emoji12][emoji23]
A final shot of the fades for the day

Great update Adam. Your gym looks legit! I wish I had something like that around me.

Thanks man - compared to some "higher end" Facilities in big cities it's a serious dump. However, we aim to add one or two nice updates per year to continue moving in a positive direction. Last summer we redid all the walls with the I stained wood and brick paneling and painted the new lines.
This year I'm hoping to redo the lobby area and add a coffee station, an old school vending machine and some TVs… who knows what the market will
Do though. We live in a VERY small area and it's already pretty saturated, although we were the first ones in our town doing this stuff.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks dude - we had a member get his first bar muscle up during the WOD so that's always cool for us as coaches to see.
I haven't been training much but plan to give it a go Monday morning

That's great! We saw a few of those at our box too. I imagine that would be even cooler from a coaches perspective.

Killer! Yeah, after nearly 10 years in the CF world, I get more excited when my clients hit new PRs than I do… although I do like throwing weight still [emoji12][emoji123]
Anyways, day 2 with the tours gave me a bit of quiet time so I decided to see if there were any "problem" areas in the jeans.
The crotch was pretty beat up and a decent hole was starting so I did a very small thread job to ensure they make it to the next gent.
The damage before
I gotta say, after a year of these things going and only a few busted threads, I'm seriously impressed
Quit and easy job. Doubt anyone will ever notice, although I can pull pretty hard at the seam and the new threads take the pressure as opposed to the constructional chainstitching. Hope it lasts the next few weeks/months!
A beer… always well deserved. And yes, I drink PBR out of choice as my daily fridge stocked. Have for more than a decade and probably will for a decade more lol

Day 3 of the Bama leg of the tourWe went to a wedding last night so we're a bit slow moving this am, but we got a call that someone wanted to show our house today, so we had to get it cleaned up… nightmares of selling your home...
Check out those vacuum marks… lol
Buddy wasn't being very helpful during the cleaning up
And Daphne just wanted to play

Some shots of our home since it's kinda clean now
My favorite photos my father in law built the frames for
I consider myself the "home Decorator" but my wife did pick this one up and it's pretty great
A quick flick of the tours
Gratuitous photo at the wedding we attended last night. The tours were not present, but were there in spirit
Cheers, and Happy Sunday to all.

thanks for showing us around.
jeans & shirt go super well together & the wear on the tour double indigos (tdi) have made me go look at the cuts in this material . . . .
-
@Appfaff nice man thanks for the updates
-
Thanks guys - they are spectacular jeans, and I've found the 666 cut super versatile. Seriously debating getting a pair of the OG 18oz ones.

Alrighty guys… so I had planned on driving back to Texas to spend the weekend with my dad and brother at the lake for our grandma's (dads mom) birthday celebration, but some unexpected news of my grandfather (moms dad) passing had me hop in the car today and drive from
Alabama (mobile) to Texas (Fort Worth). Looks like I'll then be traveling to Indiana this weekend for the memorial arrangements as well, but until then, my brother (@formulapfaff) and I are spending some quality time together.Anyways, since the drive was so long, and the world tours being a bit snug on me, I elected to wear my 555-03 on the drive but quickly changed into them to go out to dinner and drinks with Greg (my brother).
The IH arsenal that I brought for my trip. Wasn't expecting the memorial to be this weekend in Indiana so I hadn't packed any suitable clothes for cold weather… but at least I will look good in 10 degree (f) nights lol
BTW- when you move out of the house, your mom will put a chaise lounge in your room to remind you that you can't stay here long
Perfect for serious style WAYWT posts
Luckily, there is an amazing Mexican bakery (tex mex) place around the corner from my parents house so my brother grabbed him IHSH-170 and we headed that way.
On our way

…Continued
We arrived at stop 1
First off, margaritas. A must.
My dinner. It was 10000x better than anything we have in Alabama. No surprise there
Next we found ourselves at a new cigar bar around the corner. My brother had a nice "My Father" cigar while I had a … well I can't remember the name but here is the label lol
The place hadn't gotten their liquor license now, so was acting as a "membership club." So for a $5 membership fee, we had "complimentary" Glenlivet 15yr with our cigars on the back patio while the owner set up a private Sonos speaker with jazz for us. Quite a nice evening
Came back to the house and had a local Texas beer - essentially a craftier version of a shiner bock for those familiar with that brew
A bonus pic from our stroll to and from our nightly adventure
Hoping to hit up a local workwear shop that opened up in town tomorrow and maybe get some jeans hemmed.
I'll be sure to keep everyone posted up about the tour jeans!
