    Nice overalls Alexi! Just got a pair myself...can't wait until they break in a bit more. Did you find they shrunk much after washing?

    I think flat-top and flat_top are so similar it's becoming bizzaro!!!

    Beard trimmer

    Never had a beard, but I use a regular pair of Wahl clippers to trim my facial hair. They've lasted about 10 years so far.

    I think the campaign is interesting, but not really my favorite line up.

    30's~40's Work Boots

    Hmmm, not my style but they are interesting looking. Where do you think they are taking the inspiration from? Obviously some sort of military boot, but which?

    Value of this Duke Kahanamoku shirt?

    If it's a repro, I'd say $161 was a fair price. I would guess that most other heavy bidders on eBay didn't think it was real or it would've been hammered. I personally think the shirt (if real) is worth upwards of $500 even in this soft market. Two years ago it would have gone for over $1,000.

    Vintage vs. Classic - creating a truly a timeless look.

    Man, that Ivy look makes me cringe! How about a nice pair of high waisted pants, gab shirt and white buck shoes instead?

    Gabardine is a weave not a fiber: The fabric and fiber content terminology thread

    A lot of gabardine in the US was (or is) made of a blend of wool and rayon. Combine the strength and durability of wool with the softness of rayon and you've got a winning combination. Makes me wonder why they switched to polyester....could it have something to do with the fact it's a petroleum...

    Sorry it took so long on this! It's a pretty stiff denim that's got a nice graininess to it. I haven't washed mine, but I would imagine it would soften up over time. The size I bought was a tagged 46, but is more like a 44. It measures 21" shoulder to shoulder, 23 1/2" armpit to armpit, 24 1/2"...

    LOL! I was just poking a little fun...the tattooed guy is definitely not part of the Levi's campaign.

    The prison stripe jeans are just plain silly...some of the other stuff is already up on here: www.sivletto.com Be sure to choose English as I'm sure most of you can't read Swedish!!!
