I might be wrong on this, but it seems like you wear stuff out a lot faster than most!


Probably true, but then most of you guys work, and go out much more than I do, so you varie your clothes more!

I literally rotate 3 or 4 shirts and the same numbers of jeans..so they take a lot of wear and the shirts are washed constantly.

I'm currently regretting recently washing my 21oz Kurabo jeans, as they shrink a bit after each wash - I'm only 84 pounds and they're now skintight on me!!

I'd better not wash them again or there'll be Barbie sized!

Breaking them in to be comfortable is pretty tough!

Now I understand why they don't make skinny fit 32oz raw denim jeans!!!!:)

That was mean. Plus I always assumed the study in repetition of this thread was an art project lampooning the obsession of mens style itself.

Thank you SO much for standing up for me - I was very upset at his cruel bullying.

I'll wait until my closet is updated before posting on this thread again..

I don't feel quite so hurt now - he was unnecessarily unkind to me

hirsh, was it davide taub who made your jeans at G&H? if they're the pair on his blog they look very nice.

as to the bullying, i think it's more that the seemingly endless self-quotation and relationship updates etc across multiple threads can impinge on other users' enjoyment of the forum. bear that in mind and you'll find it easier to fit in around here.

Yes, it was Davide, and thanks for the compliment - they are lovely!

I'll try to follow your advice - it's just hard when I can't sleep at night because I'm in pain to think of lots of different things to write!

I like constructive criticism (not insults) so I'll try to vary the content of my posts a bit:)

Those are over the 2 year mark now - this year he made me an awesome pair of 19oz Kurabo jeans, using the Selvedge in a really unique way.

But it's too hot ATM for them so I'm waiting until the autumn to get tons of wear out of them

I'll photograph my closet again when my next 2 pairs of jeans arrive:)

Don't take him seriously - he's taking the Mickey out of me!!!

Although I do have a girlfriend in LA who has over 500 pairs (she's a shopaholic) and a Swiss friend with a denim museum containing nearly 15,000 pieces!!!

Mind you, I couldn't manage on 3 pairs of jeans:)

Nearly ready for next closet pic!

2 pairs of jeans being shipped at the end of next week..

1 empty hanger - boyfriend offered me shorts but my legs are too thin so trying to persuade him to buy jeans instead:)

But not hopeful - he likes the shorts...

When all received will post closet pic:)
