I'm not only fan of 1600 tee in the room

Broke my biceps tendon and thought that my fishing was done for the summer. Luckily microjigging for perch was doable and ~3kg pike was gentle enough for my arm and there was help to get it on the boat. (We did not return the favor and filets are in a freezer.)

My all season roamers

Natural indigo western. Phones portrait camera exaggerates. Then again Mark Twain said it gets us closer to truth. Not sure if it applies in our digital world

@T4920 for logistical reasons on my way back to home allready. Have a nice one today!

(Originally thought that I would try to meet some of you stubborns, but I was travelling with "kids" and timetable was fast moving.)

Yestarday was good, but this night was bloody amazing. Random shot from queue for a bar

One more summer for my trusty 888s

My favourite summer shirt, green mock twist chambray, has this yellow tint on sleeve aswell. Thought it was sweat + sun, but maybe it's something else

Sometimes It Snows in April

22oz pronto before repairs

Not sure if worth it. Need to run over it with singer anyway

Modified n1 deck vest. 5 years of use and maybe close to 1k wears so of course it shows. Would buy again

I like how the spot where I've been tamping my morning espresso for last 15years has developed some texture. It pleases me even more knowing that many would absolutely hate this

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot said in IHSB-BIGBUCK-OLV - Deerskin Western Shirt The Big Buck - Olive:

HOLY FUCK

That is precise and adequate way to describe the situation

What many have said. I think they are fine roomy 888 fit. 21oz will settle rather quickly. If you were after tighter jeans I believe you are pretty unlucky with muscular lower body. Cuts are quite limited across all japanise brands

While we are at it. Making your own sandwiches is a misery. I have no discipline to follow it through and sit down to eat. I end up doing my second sandwich while eating the first ...and even that is a lie cos I'm 100% eating the first sandwich while I'm making it.

@Oaktavia good to know. My jeans will allways blowout in same place (other brands too). Maybe it's a habit and bodyshape/movement thing. I suspect that lack of stretch just does it faster with xhs. Not even complaining really, just observing. I have two hands and a sewing machine afterall

@aksu said in Catch of the day [Fishing]:

Hey! I'm visiting Tokyo for the first time. Can you (or anyone else) recommend a tacle shop...

Tokyo really is something else. There is a tackleshop larger than decent sized supermarket back home and it's open 24/7.

Not sure if this is right place to ask, but anyone else noticing XHS jeans needing their first crotch repair earlier compared to lighter denims? I have two pairs and my 634's are developing a hole even thought they are barely broken in. ("barely" in context of xhs. been having them over 2years).
