I'm honest - I think they're too short. The waist could be doable, if you feel comfortable with it, but once the combs set in, these will be too short, I fear. And if the waist sat where it should, they would be too short anyway. I think you'd be better off with one size down.

Chris

I think the top block looks way too big. And even with the taper at the bottom, the leg opening is still pretty wide on you. Whether that's a problem is your call.

Length looks ok to me, Max. You really think he'll lose that much from the combs?

@Beatle:

maybe if u use that bench press - next year they will fit

:-\

Taking the mickey beats? I was using those little ones for a knee injury and only have them all for sport (jump height in basketball) I didnt leave them in the shot to show off (I just live in a small flat, sniffle), if i was so inclined, I would have put more than 25kg on the bar
(or am I completely paranoid and misreading that passing comment as sarcasm directed at my ostentation?)
edit: cropped 'em in photobucket, should be a bit neater now.

Thanks for your honesty Max.

Edit: I agree Chris, the leg opening is actually only 8" it just seems to sit really wide because the top block is so roomy.
So…... Anyone have any 31 or 32" IH's they wanna swap :P?

I went on a little splurge… Atelier LaDurance goods:

STAN

Agreed nice book.Got to have it, I only just have a look thru the book, have not start reading it yet. btw..Cool jacket.

jimmy

i've got that book too. some pretty interesting facts but very vague and some what repetitive. only takes couple of days to read it properly. i am hoping he does a follow on book because i am really more interested in after 1890s which is when the book ends.

Giles

I actually thought the book was pretty average. I am not holding my breath for the sequel…....

Seul

When he starts naming brands and pointing out all the small differences, that's when I was out… Got through it in one afternoon... But I liked the history bit...

Has anyone read 'Denim: an American story'?..

Beatle

ron - that was me being funny..anyways - I think they are too big, like 2 sizes…

Pick up at a garage sale:

couple of nice items there - great summer gear

Seul

Yep - and another jacket… As if I needed one... I think I have 5 or 6 already... Couldn't say no to the 120 € pricetag though... I think it's an older item that was still made in France. Not sure though, but really couldn't care less... I see this as a 2ndhandpurchase (eBay) although the items are NWT...

Geo

well imo ALD is good quality so a great add to the collection

Seul

Yep - it's not a collection I add to frequently but it is exactly that. Beautiful gear that one day will be sought after by a hard core of €uro poofs with 80 € haircuts… This 0 € haircut €uro is ahead of the curve, I tell ya!..

(Stay away from ALDs leather goods though...)

Simon

That's a nice jacket you've picked up there Seul, like it lots :D, not so sure about the pink short sleeve though :-\

Seul

It's red… And you'll see... I'll look good in it...

ronaldlsh
