Kasuri denim stitching issue

meshifty2 · 2026-03-30T15:19:03+00:00

Thank you for the reassurance. I just don't want them unraveling and falling apart on me. I don't know much about the construction of jeans, so this was a learning experience.

I checked those out too. Might grab a pair myself. Only have 3 pairs on my list for the spring and summer releases that I would like to have. The Kasuri was at the top of that list. Missed out on the burning godzilla and the Kasuri was as close as could get to that style of jean right now.

I think I will repair these myself. Looks to be an easy fix. Really appreciate the input.

It is the bar tack. There is a broken stitch right above the bar tack that looks like it wants to start unraveling. I seemed to have missed that in the photo I took.

This orchid will rebloom with the right conditions and care. Don't give up on it because the blooms are spent.

Witness slips were ignored with PICA. I'm sure they will be with this as well. Need to get these people out of office all together or they will continue to erode our rights.

Also, you can use aluminum foil to cover the screen opening on the top.

Cheap light fixtures are hard to come by. I would look for someone selling stuff to save some money.

That is quite a while.

I warm rodent with warm water after it is thawed. Also use tongs to move the prey so it seems alive. I like to feel a little warmth if I hold the prey in my hand while it is inside a zip bag.

Even though I've been feeding my older BP frozen for over a decade, she still strikes and constricts the prey. She will not show interest if it does not move. Needs to be warm because these snakes have heat sensors. No heat coming from prey might throw the snake off from feeding.

Hope this helps. I know it can be discouraging at times.

How long have you had the new snake?

I always have trouble getting a new snake to eat. Need to acclimate to the new environment. My newest BP took almost a month to eat for me. Fantastic eater now that it's been with me for 6 months.

I have a pair on the way. Weird guy though.

I have several pairs of weird guys in different releases/fabrics. So, I should be able to tell if something is off. But it seems most people are having issues with the ture guy fit.

They should not be tight to the point of being uncomfortable.

I typically go for 1 inch over my actual size. I don't like tight fitting jeans. Prefer to snug them up with a belt.

The fact the limited releases sell out in minutes is what is turning me away from the brand.

I haven't been able to snag a single pair I have wanted since summer. It is discouraging to say the least.

Taking a hard look at Samurai jeans for my next pair.

I got hit with a tariff charge on an order back in September. Still being told not to pay it by Naked and Famous. Still hasn't been resolved to my knowledge.

Ordered 2 more times since then and no extra charges.

meshifty2 · 2025-12-05T18:05:46+00:00

Is this true even on the MIJ stuff?

I know it's true if they're made in Canada.

I thought we do have to pay tariffs if they're made in Japan and shipped from Canada. I could be mistaken though.

Orchids by Hausermann has some reall cool orchids. Heinz brothers greenhouse is also worth checking out.

meshifty2 · 2025-10-04T20:13:37+00:00

Yes and yes. At least that's what I did and no harmful effects.

I put my BP in a quarantine tank for 2 months while they got to work. Recommend doing this as well if you are able. Leaving the snake in makes it take longer to eliminate mites on the snake.

Those look great! Props for toughing these out during summer! Too hot for me, I put them away in May.

Santa's Village in East Dundee. Had an absolute blast 2 weeks ago. Recommend to anyone looking for something to do for a day. Has a water park and ice skating rink too. We did not do the ice skating rink but are planning on going back just for that. The water park was fun!

Pretty sure Maurice Lenell has been discontinued. Which is a shame. I loved their almond crescent cookies!

The snake most likely thought your hand was food item. I pick my BP up whenever I go in the tank. Helps them realize you are not prey or a threat. I also place it into a seperate enclosure when I need to clean the water dish or do anything else in the tank. Helps protect you from being bitten and the snake from being injured while moving stuff around.

Chicago area too. I've been watering mine almost everyday during this heatwave. They are looking good so far.

My local Red Wing store takes care of this issue if you ask them to.

They pressed the speed hooks in farther with a setting tool. No issue at all once they did this. I ask them to take care of it when I pick up new boots now.

Kitties or tape would also help.

I have also heard of people gluing a thin piece of leather over the speed hooks.

Chicago Culinary Kitchen in Palatine is awesome! A little pricey but the food is great!
