      Why do certain pairs like the non fade black not have lined pockets, no hidden rivets and no tucked belt loops?

        Which specific model?

        But some answers will be here:

            @Giles Did you dictate that answer to someone and they removed all the restricted 18 vocabulary?

                @popvulture I have a pair of 1634 "freebees" they are non selvage and non lined rear pockets, no hidden rivets and no tucked belt loops, I also have a pair of non fade blacks that also do not have these features, I have a pair of triple works that have half lined back pockets. It's interesting to see the changes through the time.

                  When I started working with Haraki, there were a lot of details "missing", which I added later. Do they make the jeans any better? Maybe marginally, but they are features that I like and i know a lot of our customers like, so I requested them on jeans that I specced.

                    Link to the thread itself works fine:

                        Have you also experienced that the 21 oz denim doesn't really fade at all for quite some time until you arrive at a point where the fading seems to accelerate so fast?

                        You're it.

                            @RobeOfTheMagi could be a psychological thing. my slubs and 21 lefties, I felt faded very slowly, when I was wearing them day in and out. when I moved on to a new pair, all of a sudden, they looked as though they've been faded a lot, almost as though they were trying to lure me back in

                              Seeking advice from those likely to have experience themselves.

                              I ordered an item from Wonderlooper that was Fed-Ex’d and I had to pay a further fee of about £50 to Fed Ex (VAT & Admin).

                              My wife is concerned it could shrink and become a little snug, so I wanted to size up. Wonderlooper are small, sell out quickly and don’t do returns so it’s down to me.

                              They’ll refund once they have it back, sent me a return label and I ordered a slightly different hoodie, as they nearly all sold out in days.

                              I’m trying to ship back but am told by a drop off centre a mile away that I’d have to pay on top outside my own postcode and any questions about getting some of the return fees back, were greeted with a blank look and a vague suggestion to call them.

                              Pretty sure the next delivery will cost again and I don’t mind paying, but their website suggested I have to reject the delivery as a shipment, but can only do so on faulty grounds when
                              It’s only size being an issue.

                              Anyone else had similar experience in the UK, and any advice appreciated.

                                    @Gulliver You will need to work this out between yourself and the seller as anything here is speculation. If they suggested rejecting the shipment, then you should do so.

                                    Any advice here could interfere with their policies and affect your overall outcome.

                                      @Gulliver if ordering from Wonderlooper directly comes with additional fees, you may be better served checking stockists in the UK. Just a thought, that I realize doesn’t really help with your current predicament

                                        @goosehd thanks for the input. They’re pretty clear shipping and fees are on the buyer. It’s FedEx with their website that’s the issue. FedEx charged me the fees and so far I haven’t been able to find clarity on how I can get that back from them. The item was fine but the guidance is specific that only when faulty can you return and reclaim. It isn’t faulty just wanted a larger size. I’ve sent clothes to Japan for re-dying via Royal Mail and it was a piece of cake from here in the UK. Therefore I’m curious if others have navigated similar with FedEx successfully before now and how they went about it

                                          @Tago-Mago That’s a perfectly sensible point. It’s a bit more expensive from the Jeans Store here in the UK but pretty much the same price once VAT added, give or take. I didn’t know previously they were selling all that and if I buy in future I’ll definitely consider the alternative.
