This one is the regular fitting crewneck, yours is the slightly oversized/dropped shoulder/thinner version, right ? That thing came in all shapes and sizes (oversized, hooded, cropped etc)

^I just ordered the same knit in olive. I was torn between orange/brown and olive - absolutely loved the orange/brown, but I sort of pussed out and went for safeness. Edit; threw in a pic for good measure Also got this shirt:
Love the purply blue shirt - what make is it?:)

Wow, you got in quickly!!!

I'm busy topping up my jeans line up before I think about winter clothes, although as you've probably noticed, I wear jeans every day!

Looks like you're kopping the best pieces at the beginning of the season!!!:)

i dont understand buying multiple pairs of raw denim. you're never going to fade them all


Ah. I only have two pairs of jeans at any given time. Currently I have the BOM008s, N&F 32oz, and gustin hemp (unworn), but now that I ordered the 32oz i have to either decide to sell the hemp, or store the 32oz until next winter. Trying to deal with a 5x5 wardrobe makes it even harder. As the hemps were suppose to be my warm weather jean I am hesitant to dump them and be left with only heavy weight denim, but it would free up cash for other articles.

When I said end my denim cop run it is because I also bought the IH blanket lined rider, and want a loomstate lighter weight denim jacket as well (though that will probably wait). Plus ontop of all of that I want a denim wabash before winter.

Basically I have a max of 2 pairs of denim (in any given category) in a rotation at a time. I have simply been copping only denim pieces recently.

Are they making them again?

I can't imagine how uncomfortable they are. 21oz is already unconfortable enough.


No they aren't. I simply managed to find them in stock on a Canadian web store. And the break in is the only thing I'm not excited for. My 21oz rider wasn't a bad break in tbh (took maybe 2-3 days), but these will probably be a different story. I'm excited and dreading at the same time
