    Unbranded Brand 21 Oz skinny-fit jeans (pic heavy)

    I'm not saying that's a bad idea. I was just pointing it out. :D

    Unbranded Brand 21 Oz skinny-fit jeans (pic heavy)

    A 1.75" belt works good. Much wider, and it starts getting a little too wide. A 2" belt will fit, but you may as well get one made from 12oz leather and hang a few pistol holsters from it. LOL

    Unbranded Brand 21 Oz skinny-fit jeans (pic heavy)

    Same here. I seem to be in the 31-32 range for both Gustin and UB. And as Sloan stated, the UB21 jeans I have are a good bit lower rise than the Gustins.

    Unbranded Brand 21 Oz skinny-fit jeans (pic heavy)

    Same thing happened on one of my pairs, only the smaller fly button, not the main top button. They also sent me replacement buttons. That said, the replacements were a different style, not the originals with the poked through tabs that get pushed flat inside the button. I actually like the...

    That's about the best use of Bean duck boots I've ever seen!!! ;) Just kidding. That is a great photo though!! Andy B.

    Unbranded Brand 21 Oz skinny-fit jeans (pic heavy)

    The UB21s are very wearable once broken in. And honestly, the break-in period wasn't that bad. I bet after only 7 or 8 wears they felt good. One thing I will say, they are also excellent at blocking wind! I've had mine over a year now, and we had some cold, windy days last winter and I'd...

    Unbranded Brand 21 Oz skinny-fit jeans (pic heavy)

    I still wear mine, but the various Gustin jeans get more wear than the UB21. Today my brother and I were out small game hunting with his dog, and we were walking through all kinds of briars and thorn bushes. He had on some rip-stop chaps over his jeans, and all I had on were a pair of the...

    LL Bean Duck Boots Are Making a Comeback!

    This must be the only product LL Bean still makes in the U. S., sadly. And as was pointed out, they were big in the 80s, with a crowd I never hung out with, so I never really got into them. I'll take my White's and Sorel Dominators any day. :-)

    Feet Up! The Work Boot Thread

    I'm between a 9 1/2 and 10D on the Brannock and I fit a 9 1/2 D in every Red Wing I've tried on. This is wearing a lighter wool sock, not a thin dress sock, and not a big thick wool winter hiking sock. My Amber Harness IRs are a 9 1/2D and I didn't have any discomfort breaking them in. And...

    My New Find- Vintage Cal Leathers Horsehide Jacket

    That's a great jacket! I have one that looks exactly like that. How did you know it's horsehide? The labels are missing in mine, but I don't know if the labels state horsehide or not anyway. Does yours have the fur lining inside the cuffs? Mine is the heaviest leather jacket I own. Andy B.

    Paratrooper jump boots...which one?

    I believe HH Brown now produces Corcoran boots and both brands are owned by the Berkshire-Hathaway conglomerate.

    Gustin Jeans Selvage Denim made in SF

    wdw, THANKS! That is exactly what I needed to know. Now if Gustin would offer it in a lighter color, I'm in! I like the black, but for my use I'd prefer "not black". haha!

    Gustin Jeans Selvage Denim made in SF

    If I was looking for a waterproof lightweight windbreaker, would you say this is a good choice? In your photos, the fabric appears to be fairly lightweight. Right now all I have is either leather, or a thin plasticy "rain coat" (one of those packable things that is one step above the cheap...

    White's Semi-dress Boots..

    I'm glad it worked out. It does sound like White's kind of egged you on to cause more frustration than needed. What I'm really interested in though, is Baker's doing the repairs. White's makes a big deal out of using the same lasts to do repairs as to originally build the boot. Does this...

    White's Semi-dress Boots..

    You asked them to replace the sole, that is what they did. If you wanted the midsole and welting strip replaced, I'm sure they would do that, for the standard $250 rebuilding price. The uneven edge on the toe is because as the boot is worn and settles, the welting strip will pull down into the...

    White's Semi-dress Boots..

    I guess I'm confused, as it appears that is exactly what they did.

    What work exactly was White's originally to do on your boots?
