Thanks.

23.1" is perfect for me.

Seems like I'll be click-fighting hundreds of dudes for one or two pieces though...

@JoshC , respectfully, is that chest measurement right on the XL? It's just a hair smaller in the chest than a 3XL?

I was in Self Edge New York yesterday. They said they were not planning to stock it.

Thanks! Been looking forward to this!

Amazing.

@ShopatIronHeart , when will the size chart be posted, please?

@warriors22 that's terrible. Did they remake them for you?

Both sold. Bummer. Thanks.

@Alex

What sizes are the samples, please? What's the price? Or have they already been claimed?

@hjl360 looking good! Congrats!

Was the seller gentle on the markup?

I paid an obscene premium for the SJ x Good Art Model 10 - AA with the three brass links, but I don't regret it.

Copper and brass cutters are in stock.

Shop is what I've used.

I washed mine with the intention of wearing them while they dried, shrink-to-fit style. After I took them out of the washer I could barely turn them right-side-to. It was like wrestling a firehose. I abandoned any thought of attempting to put them on while wet. But you should go ahead and try it! It'll be a long time before you get a second chance at a new pair of 25 oz jeans!

I agree. The Wills pockets on my Wills are totally unusable for hand warming. They're strictly for carrying things. You can put your hands into them but your wrists are pinned up against your ribcage when you really want them down by your hips. They're not lined either, so they don't actually even keep your hands warm.

@Northman
I also hesitated, "do I really need a third Wills?" Luckily someone else saved me from pulling the trigger.

50 ounces of hot soak today. Then a cold wash for both.

I sized up to 34" on this pair of XHSib. My other XHSib pair is 33" but I kept them dry for years (not even a soak) because I didn't want the size to change at all. Do I dare put this up sized 34" HXSib pair in the dryer? I might try them on wet after the cold wash. If they're still roomy, maybe I'll toss them in the dryer.

I put fifteen wears in on the 33" XHS pair before soaking because I just couldn't wait to wear them. No noticable wear or fading on the outside, but the wear on the inside looks pretty cool.

I think of this jacket often. I have so many jackets. But this jacket, this would be the last jacket.

What's that golden dust on the belt loop?

I bought that pair (photos linked above) in 2021. Repaired them a bunch. Darned the frayed cuffs. Iron-ons inside the crotch. Darned the top of the right pocket bag to the denim because taking my phone in and out wore a hole in the top of the pocket bag. Which made the pocket shorter so I had to lengthen the right pocket because my phone was poking my femoral artery. Been a nice little project that only you folks on here would appreciate.

When I bought them I figured they'd always be readily available. After following this thread I see that's not the case, so I bought a backup pair because I'm a psycho.

When I do start on this pair I'm going to wash them first. The pair I posted pics of in the summer has only ever had one soak, which some would say is sub-optimal, because I'm afraid of shrinkage. Went a size up on this pair, which some would say is unwise, but, I'm going to do it anyway. Would be nice to have a pair I can throw in the machine any time without worrying.

@Jord @worn2fade

Good looking out guys, thanks, I was able to snag the pair from ISP.

Dang. Missed out on size 34.
