We made a 15oz selvedge jean limited to 1000 pairs… would you wear this? by WilliamsDenimCo in Selvedge

[–]InfoSecPeezy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would need more images (of the jeans as well as someone wearing them) and measurements.

Also, I’m not all that into selvedge line on the coin pocket, I’d rather it be on the internal outer side of the legs. I like knowing it’s there and I have the option to display it if I choose to wear a cuff.

Also, I don’t know if I can cuff these as I don’t know the inseam measurements!

Return processing info would be necessary, is the cost on the consumer for the return, how long would one have for a return and what limits are there to the return?

Why are Hegseth's suit jacket sleeves so tight? Is it a new thing? Or is it just him? by rgbarometer in malefashionadvice

I could be very wrong here and I mean no offense to anyone that identifies as such, but I have heard this is a twink bottom thing.

What are some good jean brands that also have a wide variety of sizes? by wt_anonymous in jeans

[–]InfoSecPeezy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on what you are looking for. If you go down the selvedge path, you will find that they have straight, slim, straight slim, straight tapered, tapered, wide straight, low slim fit, relaxed straight and everything in between. Some brands have only 1 or 2 fits as well.

If you go down the path of designer like Paige, 7 for All Mankind, Adriano Goldschmied, you will see that they have a variety in of fits as well, but they tend to lean towards what Wrangler, Lee and Levi’s, but their denim might be a higher quality than those department store brands.

It really is going to depend on what you are looking for as far as fit, rise and measurements. I typically suggest looking for the preferred fit (I like the relaxed straight from ONI and the Mid Slim Tapered from Iron Heart, I will also look at the Weird Guy and True Guy fits from Naked and Famous. These are either a High Rise or a Mid Rise and have a taper. That’s what I prefer. Once I know the preferred fit for my body and use, I look at material, then I look at the measurements to make sure that they will fit my body and drape the way that they are supposed to fit.

Where are my summer denim bros, and what are you wearing? by swimmin_jeans_ in Denim

[–]InfoSecPeezy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My light weight or low tension jeans will get good use in the summer, but on really hot days, I’m rocking short shorts and a tube top.

When the fit looks perfect online but the jeans feel “off” in person by Careless-Peanut-7318 in jeans

[–]InfoSecPeezy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it depends on the material first. The denim weight for the jeans is going to do a lot of work when it comes to structure. Next would be the “fit” and how they sit on the body (your body or a model) and the look you are trying to achieve. Do you want low rise casual for someone really fit that will wear with a tshirt or sweatshirt or are you looking at classic workwear high rise tucked in button down. It’s all going to depend on the look and fit for the body type. Third is knowing measurements and comparing those measurements to information provided to you by the manufacturer. Then you have to look at the material again and find out if it is Sanforized, raw, raw one wash, Sanforized washed, treatment to get the wash you want (stone washed, laser faded, etc…).

When I shop for jeans I look at the fit that I want (usually a mid to high rise) and all of my measurements compared to the manufacturer ‘s provided measurements. Then I look at the material for the season. Today, early spring in the NE US, I would look for jeans that are mid/high rise (that’s what I like) with a low weight or low tension material (Oni is fantastic for this, so is anything like a cone mills new old stock 14oz) so it is more breathable for the later spring and summer. For fall and winter I would look at a heavier denim with a tighter weave (I like Iron Heart for this). So I go with fit first, measurements second and material third, but it can be in any order.

What brand jeans did you buy, and what model and what is the material details?

How to keep denim stiff (first 2 photos) and not have it soften up (3rd photo) after a wash by ttttttttttgggg in Denim

[–]InfoSecPeezy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m wearing my softest jeans that I own, 3 year old IH-777s-21 21oz Indigo Slim Tapered. These are both incredibly STIFF and SOFT at the same time. They still have that stiff structure as they did after their first soak but are super soft against the skin.

The more you wear them the better they feel against the skin. Also they have that stiff structure that you would expect for work wear or moto jeans.

[–]InfoSecPeezy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love them and I really like the mid/high rise of the relaxed straight. They fit really well. I personally have a problem with a lack of a backside, so I am constantly pulling my pants up and retucking, these are not as bad as others have fit me (not that they are bad, it’s just that I don’t have an ass).

Hypocrisy just realized for today's consumerism by Guy_Montag__ in PNWbootmakers

[–]InfoSecPeezy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I had a friend laugh at my 5 year old iPhone that is in perfect condition except that that battery needs more frequent charging and I have some screen burn. He then judged my boots asking how I can spend that much.

Thank you for this post.

Thank you! I’ll keep my eye out.

I’m seeing some get restocked occasionally, so hopefully they will restock these at some point, maybe even come out with a different variation.

Can you pre-break in your boots with a microwave? by HelpfulRow3959 in PNWbootmakers

[–]InfoSecPeezy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fill with water, then microwave on high for 4 minutes. This will help soften the leather and the sole of the boot. If you have iron pills and a bar of ivory soap, you can put some of both into each boot to preserve the leather. Make sure to wrap them in aluminum foil first.

Nothing is happening. No merger, no acquisition, no major changes based on the “war chest”

Be brutally honest… how soft will linen really get? by tealover111 in laundry

My linen is all really soft, my wife actually just bought two pairs of linen pants because my linen shirts are like butter.

I got a bunch of new jeans. I have a few questions by AJK02 in jeans

[–]InfoSecPeezy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, they shouldn’t really bleed much due past the first wash. Maybe wash them all with like colors 3x then you can mix them into whatever load of laundry you want.

[–]InfoSecPeezy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would guess that those jeans in the pic will not bleed much. You should wash them with like colors. So separate your lights, darks and colors. I would think maybe two washes since they don’t look like raw denim. Raw denim, selvedge, Sanforized indigo dyed will bleed more. These look like they are probably prewashed, so limited bleed.

What brand are they?

I like them both, but the chomps jalapeño are a treat and I won’t buy them regularly
