@mecken88 seeing as your Y2 kakishibu chore shirt is a size 42 then I would say the large in the Kristofferton should be spot on....congrats!
-
@Darth-fader yeah exactly my Y2 chore is a size 42. Really hoping that’s the case. But having a few SJ items and by now kind of learned my size from them, and going by measurements. Large should be good
-
Mike and Yella are awesome, just left the shop with a handful of goods.
-
Copper and brass cutters are in stock.

XS Wills jacket on the website for a small human! My wife didn't like the jacket when I showed her... blasphemy
-
-
@hjl360 looking good! Congrats!
Was the seller gentle on the markup?
I paid an obscene premium for the SJ x Good Art Model 10 - AA with the three brass links, but I don't regret it.
-
@chadstone30 It was definitely a fair price, I feel very lucky to have it!
Love the contrast from brass to silver on that, cracking piece
-
-
@hjl360 looking forward to getting one, in for the pre-order on the orange
-
There's a small/long tan V2 Wills available on site at the minute - would've grabbed it if it was regular.
-
If anyone's interested, they're having Scratch 'n' Dent event. The second's page is being updated somewhat frequently.
I managed to grab a tote bag for the brief time it was there.

Sashiko seems to really be lightening up. I sent my black one to railcar for a hem and it came out perfectly so might finally send this one in
Interesting, do you have any before/after pics of the hemming you could share? I find the shirt to be a bit long but my concern is that the button placement/proportions would be thrown off by a hem.
-
@SonnyTheElder in post 2078 and 2079 you can see how my black sashiko shirt looks shrunk and what my indigo one looks like after being hemmed. They are the same size. Spacing is definitely off and that was a concern to me, but decided it was less of a concern then how long the shirt was on me.
-
Here's my black one hemmed. I have really gotten use to the spacing. -
@SonnyTheElder I only have an after picture that can find. I sent it out pretty quickly. They did the retaping on the hem which came out really well and they kept the original shape just cut off 2”
Mine is also a 3xl so it’s fairly long to start even after hot washing and drying, the spacing looking pretty normal to me
-
Can't wait for my indigo sashiko. Still don't believe I scored one. June was the ETA but hahah we'll see. Wonder if them moving house affects them at all.
-
@hgering27 @talexander Thanks gents, both look great and the alterations are not as noticeable as I had anticipated. I'm going to look into having this done on mine.
-
I mostly lurk here, but I picked up a 2XL and had it shortened, even for me at 6'3" it was pretty long. I think that's the move...
