Wow, long weekend Spent in Saint Jovite / Mont Tremblant. Found a little shop at 1245 Rue de Saint Jovite. Clearout prices on some N&F Denim / Unbranded.. Mostly ladies. I got two pair of guys jeans.. This pic shows how nice and glossy the Unbranded are.. (It's not a stain)
The price was so good on the Unbranded ones I bought them just to hem and ship to my friends son.. (Let's get 'em hooked young!) P.S. I put the N&F on ebay to fund my IH addiction….. -
On this same trip, in the same store I found a sweater for me lady.
Nice tag… It's like a little mini history lesson.. It reads:
The fabric you see here, is knit on old machines called Tsuri (suspended) Cirular Knitting Machines. These machines were used in the 1800s in Europe to make fine knit fabric, but in 1910 were abandoned due to their slow productivity. The Japanese knitters were happy to grab up the last few existing machines and imported them to Wakayama, Japan. There is an estimated mere 100 of these machines still in opereation in Wakayama today! It takes approx 1 hour to make just one meter of fabric on these machines, and because of it's slow and hanging opereation, and it's specialty rare german needles, no undue tension is placed on the yarn while knitting. Because there is far less tension, the Japanese say it's almost as if they knit "air" into the fabric! -
real nice sweater. so is that supposed to be loopwheeled, but they just call it something else?
never the less, it's a good look & a great score for the lady

That said I paid $5.00 for a sweater with a $59.00 inked price mark under the sale price tag. Oh and the neat story on the tag.. As I've said before N&F brings some neat items to the market at great prices.. "Neat" not IH… *Also N&F have started a casual dress shirt line totaly made in Canada. Totaly local production wins hearts..

Deftoned:
I hope you'd send an email to their website asking if they have a repairs department… If no ask for a return authorization number to send it back.
Don't stand for crap! -

Don't stand for crap!i bought the belt half price through one of their retailers. i have emailed them about the belt so they do indeed know. but whats really there to fix? the belt is just made of poor quality materials.

I have the same belt and haven't worn it much. Good to know.
-
Well you can all say you told me so… As I've said I'm selling a pair on eBay.. I've had my second good look and I don't think I can see me in these jeans.. I like regular straight cut.
-
Thanks for the pics lowk…. Are these the ones all made in Canada? I like the idea.. The fit seemed very slim... Again not my style, but I love the Canadiana...
