    Nothing much to contribute here. An arran jumper, submariner and a scarf. I have a cashmere watchcap and a half dozen lightweight turtlenecks I wear to the office in winter.

    The ultimative Denim Trouser Thread?

    A new pair of Cone 16oz Gustin straights and a six year old pair of Japanese 14oz straights. I can’t find a good pick of the 18oz pair I had - it was a loser weave, making it soft and comfortable like an IH.

    The ultimative Denim Trouser Thread?

    Looking good! I prefer a higher rise, but it is so rare that I tuck a shirt into my jeans that it’s not a dealbreaker. I like a fairly slim top block (but not thigh huggers), yet need at least 8.25” at the cuff to cover my engineer boots. Gustin have a 23oz black x black funding now, but...

    The ultimative Denim Trouser Thread?

    I’m poking around looking for a new pair of black jeans. Whereas with indigo I like a heavier weight and enjoy seeing the fades over time, I like a black denim that holds its color and it needn’t be beast weight. I’ll probably end up backing another pair of black Gustins, but I’ve been...

    The Flat Head Black Engineer Boots, 9.5

    Would you be able to measure the insole width for me? Length sounds good but might still be a bit narrow at the widest point. also if you had a side profiling of the heel that would be awesome. I’ve resisted the temptation to buy a black leather jacket because i don’t own any black leather...

    The ultimative Denim Trouser Thread?

    My habit is to give them a cold water soak with a little salt and vinegar to fix the color and get out any shrinkage before cuffing the hem. I’ll hit the crotch area and behind the knee with spray starch every few weeks (but don’t iron!). The starch adds stiffness and makes natural creases...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Gotta love international tracking - my jacket is now in Koeln and due at my door on Monday.

    Makes sense. Take your time and get it right.

    Someone talk me out of this or not :)

    I’m 6’ but short legs and long torso, so I like a 26” back. S-B build time for me was 28 days from payment to estimated delivery date.

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Just got shipping email from S-B that my cross-zip is shipping today and will arrive on Monday. No sneak peek pictures though. they are valuing it at 75 pounds so UPS don’t hit me with any import duties. So I guess I can tell my wife it was only £75?

    This will be Winter number 5, though there are less opportunities to wear thick CXL8 in SE Texas.

    Don’t mean to hijack this thread, but I’d love to see a pic of the CR you got from S-B!

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Base price of the J100 clone in size 38 is $150 plus shipping. I emailed Shawn for a ballpark price upgraded to his best leather and hardware, but he is asking for detailed specs and measurements. I have a new jacket in production in Scotland right now and really shouldn’t be ordering anything...
