Agreed, button fly >>> zipper fly

[AdamJ]

I liked 'trendy selvedge construction' in the product description

I love the button fly on my jeans but a zip fly on chinos/pants (e.g. 707, 816) is great, too.

The fewer moving parts a thing has, all the better as far as I'm concerned. I'd have buttons on everything (well, things that warrant them obviously). That said, There's something about Mary would be the same film.

Franks and beans…

[Matty123]

How’d you get the beans above the frank?!

[Matty123]

I still can NOT get the bottom button of the 888xhsib buttoned.

I don’t know if it’s because the 888 cut has an extra button or what but this is some tough denim! I haven’t used any tricks or dowels or pliers because I’m not a cheater…. but I’m tempted.

To those in the Hawaiian Islands… Take care, as Lane approaches.

Apparently women's jean pockets are a political statement, or something.

[sabergirl]

I started wearing men's pants when I was a kid, for this very reason.  Not necessarily because of the political stuff–but for the pockets.  As I grew taller (and taller still) men's pants became a necessity for inseam.  I'm really glad I've never had to deal with a lack of pockets, though--that would drive me insane.  I have one pair of women's skinny jeans that I NEVER wear because I can't put anything in the hip pockets.

Anyway, I'm not sure "politics" is the right category to put this disparity in.  It's definitely patriarchal, though--and I truthfully don't see how it would detract from the aesthetics of women's pants to have functional pockets.

It's clearly a conspiracy by the gyno-industrial complex to sell purses and to force men to carry women's gear.

But seriously, women's fashion standards are not built around comfort. Things like high heels just seem like straight up torture to wear.

@mclaincausey:

carry women's wife’s gear.

Every date night!!!

Unlike most couples, however, I wield the larger keychain.

"Babe, you bringing your purse?"

I love how Haraki san is just casually shitting on all of us IH fans by wearing his PRISTINE IH x Viberg boots and snapping IG pics of them, lol!

[neph93]

I know [emoji23]

It’s like, «oh look what I found at the back of my closet, think I’ll get them out».

Great boots tho’.
