Anyone here buy from manufactum.de? I tried to buy the shell service boots, but there was no shipping option to Canada…every other country but Canada?

I wear a 7D in Alden Barrie and 7D in Vibergs. Can't speak to the 2030 last specifically.

Just posted a pair of these in marketplace fyi…

well done

This is also a another great way to connect with this very special community of denim enthusiasts…

I was actually a little surprised when I searched Instagram and didn't see anything under #ironheartarmy. I searched #ironheart and was underwhelmed to say the least. I'm more interested in seeing pics from this community…not that I don't love this forum! Show us your twitter/instagram denim (close-up, fit, unboxing, etc) pics by using #ironheartarmy hashtag. If you search that hashtag now, you will see my first "submission"…my new 25oz #IH666XHS' recently purchased from Jord666. I have to say it was a painful first day in 25oz denim. I think I need to hang those babies up until the weather cools down a bit 

killer

For those interested…here's what we build at Viking Air: http://instagram.com/p/MwAN7HQxGD/

I work at Viking Air at YYJ where we build de Havilland Twin Otters. I walked over to the Flying Club Cafe for a little lunch. Could see the bike from a distance. Told my coworker that we needed to go over and see it closer. After lunch made way over there and started taking a couple pics, when an old guy (in 70s) saunters over wearing this great old leather jacket and jeans and says "so you like my bike?" Turns out it is a 1950 Vincent Black Shadow. He tells us a little about its history, etc. "Was the fastest bike on the planet," he exclaimed. After a little chatting I foolishly say, "I don't know much about bikes…but I want that bike!" You have to realize, that while I LOVE bikes, I had no idea what I was snapping pictures of...just a beautiful old bike that I wanted to make love to. So he chuckles and says with a smile, "well son, I don't think you could afford it." What!!! I'm wearing $500 dollar denim on my ass old man!!! So I ask, "what's she worth?" He says, "well I have about 150 into it." It actually took me a few moments to realize that he wasn't talking about $150, but he was talking $150,000. He then proceeds to tell me that this particular one is worth at least $200,000, and he has "five more in the shop at home...but they aren't quite as nice as this one." I suddenly realized that my $500 jeans meant absolutely nothing. I was going back to our shop to sit at a desk in them...probably for the rest of my life, only wishing I could stain the seat of a bike like that with my indigo. He, on the other hand, was going to be jumping on his beautiful black Vincent and ride off into sunset...I haven't been the same since.

Lovely

Thought ya'll might like these…

after hemming done.

BAD ass x10

Just confirmed order on double Ds (34x32). First time ordering from site…excited...and nervous. Hope I can pull off the duck.

Recently soaked SG2109s

Just bought IHB-01 that will need shortening. What size hole punch will I need?

I'm guilty of ordering a pair of 666od before doing my research. So I have a (tagged 32) pair that is way too tight. If anyone on here is looking for a pair, PM me. They've only been worn a few times, never touched water, chainstiched to 32 inseam. When I get time, I'll put a sales thread together.
