@Denimhead-0

My step dad grew up in Westfield, they had a beach house in green island. We used to go not every summer but for a handful of years rent a house in point Pleasant for a month or so visit family in toms River go to Barnegat Bay, etc..

@northsouthdenimguy Small world. Westfield is nice, the Watcher series on Netflix was based upon a partially true story from that town. Most of my family lives in Toms River.

[hgering27]

curious if anyone else has heard anything about the Black Sashiko shirts... I messaged them yesterday and they said final invoice soon, but based on the general lack of communication on these, not sure what "soon" means

[northsouthdenimguy]

Nothing on my end no emails for final payment.

In other news, my Mister Lou is waiting for me at home. I’m hoping it looks as good as @Denimhead-0 pair. Saw an 11 D on the Discord that looked relatively rough….

[northsouthdenimguy]

Anybody going for the shirt later today?

[northsouthdenimguy]

Slight but way more than acceptable variation. From the Derroll boot to the natty cxl “bubble toe” (I no longer own) to this boot it might just me but his damn makeup fits so well right out of the box… 11.5D is perfect same as the others

@northsouthdenimguy If you like teacore patina, I suspect they will be killer. I love em.

[northsouthdenimguy]

@Denimhead-0

Yeah, definitely what I was looking for

[denami]

@northsouthdenimguy they look great! I would have jumped on these if I hadn’t just picked up a pair from Franklin and Poe a few weeks ago.

@northsouthdenimguy
Thanks for the heads up. Just nabbed my first Ship John shirt.

[northsouthdenimguy]

@Go-For-Chill

Nice! I’m always more than happy to get people to spend their money on cool things.

I also picked up one, curious about this particular model/cut of shirt, See if it’s something I like.. my buddy has a short sleeve one and he loves it.

Still Jonesing for the black Sashiko really curious if it’ll fit a little bit different than the denim Townes

[Go For Chill]

@northsouthdenimguy I wanted to do the embroidered name, but was nervous with it being my first shirt from them.

[northsouthdenimguy]

@Go-For-Chill

I thought about doing somebody else’s name like “Chuck” or my wife loves to call me “Stevie G” I tell her it would be my R&B name if I was a singer

I wonder if the indigo sashiko ori will be a preorder or not. I saw a photo of the fabric rolls for it at ship john on Instagram.
I wonder the same about the denim wills. He had a livestream some time ago where he mentioned something about waiting on zippers.
Preorders or will both items be in stock when ready? Thoughts?

[FlavourFade]

@Northman he wrote preorders soon about the denim wills. That was in early january. Now it's almost march. I really like their products but the lack of communication mixed with announcing or not announcing "surprise" launches and then having like two pairs of each sizes is really annoying.

I think the indigo sachiko townes will be a preorder too.

[Northman]

@FlavourFade Yeah a post said the details about it would be announced in a January newsletter.
I think I signed up for a newsletter but haven't received anything.
