JEANS

yes tombot we know you are a computer man dad who wears loose fit levis, kirkland t-shirts, and chucks high tops that you stole from a member of reel big fish

do you go into ilm threads and post "beatles and stones man, that's all you need"

tom is an anagram of otm

xxp No, I go into ILM threads about AFX and say "OK you suckers, at least I know when to cut my losses and admit I'm dreaming of a return to 1994 every time I buy one of this asshole's records"

If Mordy gets to go on Rolling Political Philosophy and declaim he's perfectly OK with a theistic origin of natural rights, then I get to say BE YOURSELF on fashion threads and you're required to come to grips with my deeply felt beliefs

kind of sitting here in quiet appreciation of jim's laser-targeted deconstruction

it's like that guardians of the galaxy 2 trailer and I'm thinking "now do me!"

🙄

hahahaha

my american 501s that i bought at christmas already have a hole in one pocket. i have put my keys in there maybe 6 or 7 times total. unacceptable. i dunno i might be done with jeans. i got some nice-fitting chinos and linen trousers for summer, i'll see how i feel in september.

"cool story bro"

get a carabiner for your keys?

stop it

that's halfway to a bluetooth headset

then you can clip the carabiner to the headset for maximum efficiency

eh, i bike every day and they're really useful

big ups to jim my fellow jidadist

bringing cool into it was somewhat foolhardy but tbh el tomboto has a point in that ppl should start treating jeans more like jeans and less like trousers imo

Are dark blue washed blue jeans cool? Or can I only wear black like every other schlub on the street?

hopefully still improving my technique but have had seams at the pocket come undone on the turquoise and the white/red/beige striped ones so still have some way to go. Have fixed both and they're wearing ok but must be something I still need to perfect.
Orange ones are very comfortable

gimme all three

wait stevo you MADE those trousers?

er in my post upthread i meant 510s, not 501s (lol)

stevo looks like one funky dude

Yeah have made a load based on the same pair of old wrangler cords that wore out on me a few years ago.
Still perfecting things though and probably should get around to drafting a pattern. I tend to take them in a lot on what the original design was, which was pretty loose.

Shirts there are all me too.

I wear some black jeans but I'm the only one wearing locally so w/e

but yes for most of my life it was dark blue or nothing

black jeans or no jeans for me

I do not understand that stance

blue is the color of jeans, if you are deviating from that color, there should be a distinct need or ideological stance if you're replacing blue as the default color. highlight colors, such as a deep red or novelty white are allowed under certain circumstances

feel like if they're black 501s you're required to wear a cowboy-style shirt and black sombrero

apc new standards are like 200 bux now? feel like just a few years ago they were ~120-140. some bullshit.

black jeans fwiw are like the second most common common, they are pretty standard ime

common colorcommon

there should be a distinct need or ideological stance if you're replacing blue as the default color

i just have an extremely limited color palette, i only wear like 3 colors

yeah i'm just prodding you to see if my own ideas are any good

wearing black jeans right now tbh

is black a color? i really shifted to buying a disproportionate amount of black clothing in the last few years and i'm going to say "i don't wear colors, just black/white/grey" is a stance

correct

i don't.... see colors. just clothing.

i wear black or stonewashed jeans now. the 21st century has burned me out on dark navy jeans

I had always been averse to black jeans I suppose on an anti-aging rocker/goth basis but have come to love my first pair. however, my primary love remains the grey jean

Blue jeans:LA::black jeans:NY

omg

those are cool

omg lol no

i hope steve shasta is looking down from heaven or a wine bar in napa or w/e on me wearing this pair of high-waisted japan blue raw demin jeans and listening to wav fuzz on vinyl

word

Yeah those pale stonewashed hip huggers are everywhere, dyin' for spring

I think the saving grace for her blue jeans is the careful, clever cuff folding. Or it might be the vertical lines of the wash. Or that she wears them so low

apc new standards are like 200 bux now? feel like just a few years ago they were ~120-140. some bullshit.

i think they were 175 for a long time but here found u some for 125 http://www.norsestore.com/commodity/14489-apc-new-standard-unisex

there quickly comes a point when the new jeans eclipse the old; what was once broken-in and trustworthy begins to feel sloppy and loose

rude

xxp maybe just hit a sale last time i bought a pair. gonna take the plunge on that norse store link lagoon, thx.

i'm all about grey or charcoal jeans these days
