I’m trapped at the mall helping the Mrs. Find some work clothes. A time old tale.
Got bored waiting in the dressing room chairs and decided to read up on weather predictions for Colorado winter 23-24

@Matt you may be happy to know…

Apparently the elite, ultra accurate local meteorologists (LIES!) call the Farmer’s Almanac pseudo- science. But hey, it’s hot AF out right now. I’ll take what I can get!

[Matt]

I’ll be patiently waiting…

I made a denim counter chart using Google Docs and figured some of you more nerdy denim heads out there would like to use one too.

Here is a blank one for you to make a copy and fill out.

Here is my filled out example. I took a few moments to link the forum pages for each piece, that way I can find the links easily and post my fade progress photos without having to search for the item number.

Thanks man, I was using a pen and paper calendar before this and was getting confused with my handwriting and transferring years. The numbers were getting lost in the squares. Now I can edit this document from whatever device I am using that day. It's a simple chart but that's the point.

@Oaktavia dude I love this, had something similar way back when. My laziness got the best of me though so I neglected it.. you may have lit a fire in me though..

@Oaktavia thanks for sharing this, I haven’t been tracking my first pair but I might make a guesstimate and start using this.
Nothing wrong with being nerdy about it!

[Oaktavia]

@J-IV right on dude, hope you end up using it.

So, I have a new jacket.

Double Helix Indigo Dyed Horsehide.

@endo was selling it in Hamburg, I tried it on and loved it. A few hours later I told him I wanted to buy it. He said, too late, already sold.

Thank you @Madame-Buttonfly and @AdamC for the assist

[AdamC]

Happy birthday @Giles ! Hope you have a great day and its not TOO hot so you can get some miles in the new jacket!

[tody]

@Giles Happy Birthday, and what a bloody lovely jacket this is. Hope it matches the colours on the boat!

[ARNC]

I had wondered who got the jacket – congratulations @Giles and happy birthday!

[dinobarnesberlin]

Great gift ! Wonder how this will look with those purple boots!?

[endo]

^ exactly what I thought
(pics please @Giles )

[EdH]

Happy Birthday Giles! @endo always made the jacket look great when it popped up on WAYWT. I love it when a quality thing gets another life with a new owner.

[SKT]

Hope you’ve had a great birthday Giles! Jacket is spectacular…I’ve admired it for ages.

[sabergirl]

Awesome! Perfect origin story for this beautiful birthday jacket. Nice work @Madame-Buttonfly and @AdamC

[Jett129]
