Raw Denim
I don't think anyone mentioned yet but the other important thing about washing is to put the jeans in the wash alone (or with similarly shaded items) the first few times. That's the biggest indigo transfer risk in my experience.

It'll probably still shrink a bit, so depends how exact you want the fit to be. I increasingly just get mine hemmed conservatively then turn up more or less as needed

Did you have to be mindful of what size hoop you got in order for it to fit the legs of your pants or are standard sizes generally fine?

Where can I learn more about the fabrics? Wool, cashmere etc
There's probably a better dedicated source somewhere, but I've learned almost everything I know about fabrics from Home Comforts by Cheryl Mendelson. It's a book about home care in general and then has a section on fabrics in general that includes clothes, bedsheets, rags, etc. However that fabric section is almost 200 pages long and covers everything from fabrics to different weaves to care instructions and more.

That looks really nice. Trying to decide if I can justify something like that with how wet/rainy winters are here.

Smart Watches - Topic of the day 12/27/24
I used to wear my garmin religiously for years. While I still try to put it on before going to the gym or a long bike ride, I realized it's really nice to have something that just tells me the time without any notifications or other features. Aesthetically, there's never been a smart watch that I've liked either.

They still make plenty that don't. Their newish cotton/hemp blend has been received very well, from what I've seen

I think 17" would land squarely on my ribcage. Not entirely sure what that would mean in terms of comfort & mobility

I wouldn't buy off either unless I wanted some Wranglers maybe. But if you're gonna buy one of the Chinese brands and save some money... eh I get it

AliExpress is arguably a better platform to buy jeans on than Amazon.

Oh that's another thing. I'm pretty sure the vintage lens is acrylic and the cyclops is way more prone to chipping than a flat lens
