Perfect! ??
Thanks!

I gave up wearing cuffs on most of my jeans so I gave raw hems to most of my old RRL pairs, too since those are all like 34-36” inseams (just posted the 501s since that’s what you asked for specifically). I prefer a cut raw hem to stacks, I think it’s really easy to wear and you can just trim the fringe every once in a while to clean it up.

Thanks all for the inspiration! If anyone else has some good pics of raw hems, please post.

Lately with the warm weather creeping in - my style tastes are moving towards a PE/Gym teacher look. Oakley cycling shades, and new balance sneakers guiding the way...

Anyone else feeling this?

I've watched 1 too many Brazilian Funk videos to think I could pull off a look with Oakley frames other than frog skins.

For those of you with kids old enough to be aware that their dad is into clothes - do your kids think you look cool or super lame?

My son is 11, which means he might not be old enough to be embarrassed by me yet, but so far he's never said anything. Then again, we live between an island in Ontario and Tokyo, so who knows what's normal in that context? He steals T-shirts off me too, so I guess he likes them enough!

Mine cannot separate how I dress from their dad's job yet. There's a lot of stuff I wear that they like but in their mind, it's because I work "in fashion", so they don't think of that in the context of how they dress (if that makes any sense).

I'm in my mid-40s...if I wear anything that someone in their teens or younger thinks is cool, it's by pure accident. As it should be also, I believe.
