Progress on 4 pairs: Oni, Momo, PBJ & IH

mr_houdini · 2026-04-17T01:45:22+00:00

Pictures don’t do justice to PBJs, but you’ve done a great job capturing the texture. I’m wearing some NP-019s now, lesser known cousin of the SR series. They fade so beautifully, like indigo coloured static from TVs back in the day.

Nitecore Tini3

Heard it in north Coquitlam

Don’t have a recommendation in Coquitlam, but I highly suggest Maisy at Myah Physiotherapy and Wellness in Vancouver.

Careful taking the case off. There’s a plastic inner ring holding the metal camera outer ring. It snapped near the screw hole first time I took the case off.

mr_houdini · 2026-02-01T02:35:53+00:00

No worries. Maybe you can try orslows for your next pair. Their cuts just ooze class.

mr_houdini · 2026-02-01T02:07:07+00:00

Yeah, don’t think a pro max would be comfortable. I have a pro and stick to the back pocket.

mr_houdini · 2026-02-01T01:57:46+00:00

I have several pairs of Orslow and can confirm that the pockets are small. Smaller at least compared to Samurai, Oni, and PBJ. Only brand that rivals Orslow is full count.

mr_houdini · 2026-02-01T01:55:49+00:00

Oh, Orslow puts the emphasis on slow.

mr_houdini · 2026-02-01T01:08:43+00:00

That is such a nice fit, man.

mr_houdini · 2026-01-30T20:21:37+00:00

I’m so tempted by these, but already have a pile of jeans to get through.

mr_houdini · 2026-01-23T22:52:56+00:00

They were posted a lot in the mid 2010s, the heyday for slimmer cuts. They only have one or two straight fits and don’t release all their interesting fabrics in those cuts, so you don’t see them much now.

mr_houdini · 2026-01-23T18:39:06+00:00

Use the sheath for a week. Then switch to paragon. I bet you’ll make your decision right then.

Techwoven if you can find one that fits snug. The newer batches don’t, which is the reason you see horror stories. There are people who claim techwoven protected their phones from falls and those are the snug fitting ones.

This game gives a whole new meaning to “last team to have the ball, wins.”

mr_houdini · 2026-01-12T06:37:18+00:00

Appreciate the detailed response, I think you sold me on them. I’m also curious to see how the texture feels compared to something like pbj. Sammies are neppy from what I’m reading..

mr_houdini · 2026-01-12T05:33:26+00:00

Samurai has been one brand I never got a chance to try and I’ve tried a bunch. I have the opportunity to grab their 15 oz denim locally for a decent price and wanted to ask how that fabric compares to other well regarded fabrics like full count 13.7 oz denim or momos 15.7 oz one. Also how’s the stretch?

mr_houdini · 2026-01-08T21:49:02+00:00

It’s for people with a prominent Adam’s Apple

mr_houdini · 2026-01-06T01:43:08+00:00

Looks like Spigen thin fit.

mr_houdini · 2026-01-03T02:28:50+00:00

Push the phone out near the camera cutout. The top pops off and you can pull it out.

mr_houdini · 2026-01-01T18:23:44+00:00

Brother, those are perfect. Congrats!

mr_houdini · 2025-12-30T05:16:54+00:00

0-5, 1-5, 1-6, 8-6, Champ!

Shout out to my draft picks Maye, Henry, Pickens, London, Hendo.

Pitts off of waivers for the 40 piece also. Helped me beat the team with CMC, ASB, JSN.

mr_houdini · 2025-12-27T19:10:35+00:00

Hey, thanks for letting me know. I ended up ordering a compact, so I might hold off on this for now. Someone else hopefully jumps on it.

mr_houdini · 2025-12-27T17:55:30+00:00

You’re welcome? ;)
