@Shelby999 do I spot a set O.Z rims in the rear??

onwards to OGL/ Rugged Gentlemen Shoppe to pick up my red wings I sent off for resoling by Dr.Sole.

made use of the studio to take some photos of a jacket and of course, a fit pic.

day off. errands to run.

first off, picking up my triumph from servicing. the local dealer carries triumph, Guzzi and Vespa.

next up dropping the car off for a wash. happen to spot a very nice M4 (CSL?) there too..

@Matt I would just classify them as indie..

a lot of brit bands from that generation I've listened to growing up was sort of classified in that genre

the arctic monkeys, mystery jets, last shadow puppets, the kooks, two door cinema club..etc

that building looks like the perfect spot for a lookbook!

I'm more of a tonkatsu ramen person. but that bowl of shoyu makes me feel hungry...

@goosehd hahaha you should see it during peak hour in the city..

last weekend a monsoon swell came in and it poured non stop from friday till monday. proper rain, none of that drizzly shit. also been raining intermittently over the whole week and this weekend. unfortunately that means no Wabash and the cordura riders jacket comes out.

headed home after work last night thinking it was going to pour. seeing a gap in the rain and cloud cover, I headed out for a petrol run. so just to entertain you all, here's a shot clip tunnel blasting..

Everything is done within local laws and regulations

@Oaktavia I used to do it when I first got into raw denim. but at some point I forgot or lost track of the days of wear/ washes etc. also, nowadays, I wash it quite frequently so the less I'll remember. I don't want my head to hurt from thinking too hard hahaha

@Oaktavia I think it was. I wasn't sure, it was quite awhile back but there was no mentioned (or they mentioned some one else) of whose pair so I was a little annoyed.

@scooter appreciate it. I will see you when I see you

@T4920 I've had indigo invitational used mine. but I've just woken up and part of me was shocked and the other couldn't care less

@Oaktavia cheers mate. I think the most valuable lesson I've learnt over the years is to ignore all the noise around how denim should be worn or washed. at the end of the day, they fade because you wear them, whether it's once a week or 30 times a month.

regardless of how we wear or wash them, the fades are going to be different between you and I, but they're all beautiful nonetheless.

@Oaktavia sorry there were a couple more and my computer skills failed me. but to answer your question, I have no clue.

I would wash them every 6 or so months, or when I felt like it. Mostly, it was when I was about to embark on a trip. as for wears wise, back then, they would've been worn almost every day for 2 years when I had more freedom at work to wear what I wanted. Here's a picture of them on the wall of fades back at the 2022 IH party..

here are some pictures of the 666-UHR @Davids_denim and @Oaktavia
some of it were taken around 2020 during covid when I had a shit ton of time on my hands..
but they'll look the same now, now that they're retired and I pull them out on special occasions...

7pm gmt would be 3am where I am. hopeful but doubtful I'll make it.

wish it was this cold where I am. but no its probably raining and 22C cause of a stupid monsoon.

me too. had to refresh before a post is posted.
