      @Darth-fader If you're looking at the 9oz selvedge models, it's a tricky one, as what you're after would sit right between the straight and slim-tapered styles (just like the 666 does).

      It will, of course, vary for different body types/tag sizes — but for myself, wearing a tag 33 or 34 and hemmed to around 30" (losing some of the taper), I'd say the slim-tapered would be closest, compared to the fuller fit and higher rise of the straight cut. Others may disagree, though!

            Is there anybody in CONUS who is going the the Self Edge 20th anniversary party who would take delivery of a Recapitate hat for me and give it to me over the party week end?

                Hello all, I have a random question and I thought this was the place to ask it.

                I want to get some high quality and long lasting garments for my fiancé, but she isn’t into Americana/heritage-style clothing. She really likes the 90’s hip-hop style of baggy pants, bright shirts, big hoodies, etc. But I have no idea where to look for this. If anyone has any ideas of where to look I’d appreciate the help.

                  I like Nike ACG, Aime Leon Dore, Carhartt WIP, The North Face, Patagonia.

                  Also if you Google best high end sportswear brands you’ll get some good info.

                    @IWannaIndigoHome Some brands that were all the rage in the nineties—I’d add Karl Kani and Pelle Pelle to the list, too—though I don’t know how many you’d still find around; I think I’ve still got a few suitcases full of them at home somewhere.

                      The early Girbauds were fantastic. Just a traditional five-pocket jean, big plain rear pockets, leather waistband patch, that little white label across the fly, and the blue loop.

                      I wore these like crazy from around ’86 to ’90, just before Girbaud started getting into that crazy Z. Cavaricci pleated high waisted Crayola color look of the early ’90s.

                        @northsouthdenimguy loved my Girbauds in the 80’s. Will try to dig up a pic.

                        Also, please tell me who did a pinched and rolled cuff…

                            I probably shouldn't question it and just buy stuff... But has there been a price drop to a lot of items on the IHUK website today? (at least in GBP)
