@Matt thanks Matt. I appreciate all those cool bits of the story. Sounds like it was great run with a wonderful cut.

I was really curious about the person herself and how she came to find herself developing her own cut. Did she have some background in design? Just an all around rad person with amazing style deserving of her own collab?

I’m always curious about the people themselves and how they came to connect with the brand and leave such a cool legacy.

She did actually go on to release a denim line called By Beatle.

Interesting indeed.

Beatle and I started working together 15 or 16 years ago, she was a breath of fresh air and really invigorated the forum with her sense of fun and style.. After a while she suggested a new cut which was a little more modern than the 634. I liked the idea. So she came up with the concept, we got Haraki to sample it. I designed the patch and that was that....

@goosehd I think the trick is to buy a new pair and wear it for 15 years. Or 15 months if you're @Jcaz6996, although his would look cooler obviously

@Tago-Mago …but I don’t want to put in the work or effort. How can I satiate my desires by doing something the hard way where instant gratification is so much easier?

Then, when I’m tired of them, I can throw them into the landfill or feel good about myself by donating them….(sarcasm intended)

I like the fact that isn’t a common theme here

@goosehd typing up a proper response would take some time and effort, and I'm bored already

[goosehd]

@Tago-Mago …can I make you less bored? A philosophical discussion on the detriment of fast fashion on today’s society would be a great way to spend the day.

Or maybe I’ll just do some crotch pics in the WAYWT threads…

Either way, a win

@Giles These are such cool IH stories. Love the denim but knowing the stories behind it all makes it all even better!

Luckily, P does not read this, so she won't have any idea what she is getting. It's her birthday in a week, I have already bought her some "how to park the fucking boat" lessons. She is great at just about everything on SAKURA, but lacks the confidence to do close-quarters manoeuvring. I love the challenge of close quarters stuff, so don't encourage her enough to take the helm, but know in my heart of hearts that she should do more. I also know that we'd "have words", if I was her teacher. Plus, we need someone doing ropes, and I can't do that and be next to her on the helm, so best a professional teaches her.

But, yesterday, I caught her struggling a bit with her 8x20 binoculars, so i found these at a snip on eBay....

[goosehd]

@Giles Very nice and I'm positive she will love them!!

[Shelby999]

@Giles "how to park the fucking boat" lessons and we'd "have words."

I Love it!

[Giles]

Whoops.....

[tody]

@Giles So the company you bought the binoculars from mixed up the order and sent you a fishing rod instead?

[Giles]

I think I must have accidentally won a 2 for 1

Come on, now. We all know, this was no accident.
