Great day for it, finally bit the bullet and bought a new lid too. Unfortunately the CF version sold out by the time I reached the pub.
Regardless, gotta love Black Friday sales

@Denimhead-0 enjoy it in good health mate
I’ll be about 6 months behind you in doing the same

Zip up slubby flannel
Zip up 14oz fade to grey denim

@Daniel-San
Damn, wish I knew about that when we visited Austria. Looks awesome

@Denimhead-0
Nice

@shumu111 Corlection has just dropped the NON- untucked cpo version if you don’t have any luck.

@Ral1121 yeah cheers, I appreciate that bit of info.

green isn’t really my colour of choice though.

@Ral1121 I recently picked up the black travelling shirt and love it, their gold version looks mint too.
I can’t wait until they do a restock of their heavy flannels as I’m keen to add a couple

@Denimhead-0 it’s a very interesting material. Would definitely love a pair of jeans made from that

@cyclops
Been trying out a whole bunch of different Japanese clothing brands lately and my first Big John flannel has definitely exceeded expectations.
UES have said they will restock again in November so I’ll jump on those too.
Been collecting flannels for many years now and the search never seems complete

Any other brands worth looking out for?

@Denimhead-0

Finally rolled up today.
Wow, I am very impressed with this one too.
It’s heating up pretty quickly down this way though so it might be sometime before I can put it into rotation.

Has yours rolled up yet?

Wasn’t exactly sure what to expect with this brand especially for the price. AUD$200 with delivery included via DHL seemed too good to be true.
Japan to Aus in 4 days.
Absolutely stoked

@Chibs yeah, they can’t be re-soled.
But I get a solid 3 years of daily farm use out of em and they only get replaced due to being worn out and not due to a structural failure. I don’t clean them, I don’t look after the leather….. nothing.
The last pair cost me Aud$165 so at that price even if I could get em re-soled I wouldn’t.

@Chibs it might say “Tasmania Australia” on the tugs but they stopped making them down under nearly 20 years ago. Definitely not as good as they used to be.
Red backs are where it’s at these days.

@Anesthetist apologies, I forgot about that one.

@Damocles I have a black and a khaki

Gotta go a leg of lamb on the spit when having visitors over.

First time using this particular oil and not loving it as much as others I have used.
Still several coats and more sanding to go, so who knows.
Should still make an ok outdoor bench to rest my coffee/ beer on though.

Bringing an old forgotten slab of Redgum back to life.
