It is, it took a big hit in a recent typhoon. But the 2 boats were undamaged. Covid hit us hard. We basically had full bookings for 2020, and those all but disappeared. But yep, it is still there

Hiya Giles
Any idea where to source a pair of raptor malt soles (just the soles) in the UK?
-
Ah, no worries. That at least reassures me that I’m not missing something blindingly obvious as I can’t find anywhere.
Thanks, hope you’re well.

Ha! I love that you looked.
Here’s another one for you: How big are your calves at the biggest bit?
I have the willowiest girls’ ankles, but reasonable carfage. I’ve read you mention a few times that yours are mighty and I’m curious as to just how much I am lacking in all areas below the knee. It’ll also help me understand the fit of your jeans a bit, but I’m mainly motivated by curiosity at this point.
FWIW I have zero interest in any other of your measurements.

14 or 21, def not 19.
I forgot that SelfEdge has a 22oz with pockets. How does this compare weave-wise to the 14, 19, and 21?

…hey Giles! Is the orange bag for something specific or just a friendly little gift?
-
I believe it says gift on the tag, and I will use it as a tote…..
-
When you guys make a new denim. Do you pre distress it. So you can see how it will fade?

A shopping bag….

No.
I try and wear it, but that only usually gives me 6 months of wear before we release it.
That is why, when people ask how a new denim will fade, the answer is often "tell you in a few months"
So do dyeing methods give you a slight idea?

for those of us who work in an office that has "casual Friday", or now with the pandemic "casual everyday", a nice pair of jeans kept clean is much easier than wearing the same ones we were at the ranch with or in the yard with.
This is why I’m such a big proponent of the Superblack non-fade denim. Especially the 9666Z’s which have a black patch and black W. I can get away with wearing them at work.

I was watching a product review by James Dant and he referred to the iconic red stitching as an “E”. I’ve always thought of it as a rotated “W” has homage to Triple Works. What’s the history and meaning of this logo?
