I use both plastic and wooden, both works, as long as it has thick shoulder support
The wooden is not expensive here last time I bought them from acehardware, but plastic is cheaper, i dont know where to buy those foam thing because in my country private swimmingpool is not very common, so...
Sometime the fade is more exaggerated when photographed flat like that but actually look a lot more normal when worn as a 3d object
I tend to pair wabash with tan leather items, i think pairing it with another pieces of clothes in off white, black, olive or sage work
really? I thought when it get faded like that it gets much easier to style with rather than a crisp brand new wabash
I'm waiting my pair to fade like that
I use m1945 fieldpack repro but I cut the closing strap and installed snap clasp in between so I don't need to use the traditional clasp to access the bag, I just waiting for it to fade a little to look softer
Im waiting it would fade like that canteen cover i bought in 1991 that was also od...
when the sky is a bit cloudy or if the weather forecast predicted rain shower, I pick jacket that needs some breaking in, and wearing simple black or grey or other dark t-shirt underneath
just from pictures alone, typically their jackets has smaller neck hole for its size, and have a normal joe relatively flat undeveloped trapezius muscle, I often see a perfectly fit board/ cafe racer here but the band collar really bite into the wearer's neck and probably can't be snapped close...
i think the stretch is permanent, if the fibers is all cotton, but i think you have to go through several shrinkage and stretch over several washes to stabilize it, i think wearing it from wet to dry is a better method, I successfully permanently stretch a 21oz jeans that hurts like hell on the...
I remember my first long pants was actually a fatigue denim pants, because it has patch pocket and not a 5 pocket jeans, but I just didn't know the name since it was in 86 or something and I was in elementary school, my first cargo pants probably from 88 and I kept wearing them as I outgrew them...
I dont think a jacket would fit in it, looking at it I think even a denim jacket won't fit, a folded raincoat indeed might fit, or shopping totebag, perhaps a spare tshirt, or towel if you do light hiking perhaps and need a spare tshirt, drinking bottle might fit too, but the thing is it located...
perhaps the idea is never to open the buttons on the front pocket but just access the pocket from the space inbetween the 2 buttons, if the flap is unbuttoned I bet the whole pocket will spill out whenever you squat or sit on a car seat for example, the rear pocket I imagine I only will open the...
OK I went on with my purchase because it clearly stirs emotion in people :D
honestly I don't really care much for the back pocket, but the side cargo pockets are just at perfect location
it gains popularity lately after fatigue pants and painter pants, this one share its time in the sun, every repro maker has their version, some made in herringbone, some in other fabrics, some with metal buttons some with standard plastic buttons, some a bit baggier, some has normal leg, some...
I see it has more slanted collar band, funnel shaped collar band, usually model B has standing straight up collar band, I think this one looks closer to a racing jacket
I did some comparing... and they are not all created equal in term of rear unipocket thing... similar to jeans like some jeans have the pocket low and some have the pocket high like wrangler, in uni pocket case some looks like the leg movements split the pocket and look like a real catasthropy...
the chest pockets are too high and the collar construction seems off, I don't care about the scam part because the jacket doesn't even appeal to my eyes
I think the recipe is to cinch the waist band cord to a close fit and the hem cord just a little bit, and then the rest of the jacket will drape or forced to drape and also I fully utilize the pockets the chest pockets to carry stuff and the lower pockets to rest my hands while walking
