feeling lonely out here recently, Tilmann? despair no more, my forumite friend__ i’m back on the saddle again!
yea, wasn’t feeling the Yamatos since they’ve gone too loose for me. i’ve lost 8 lbs + the denim stretched back out to pre-soak measurements @top block. i was planning on throwing in the towel, but, instead, i threw ‘em in for a hot tumble + a bit of...

Hard Wear
My 66-2 didn’t change much after the wash so I decided it wasn’t post-worthy. I’m wearing them now for then ext 5-6 weeks (at least that’s planned) in a local carpentry (I need money for my Samurais ;-) ).
