Denim/workwear general- enough with the schizoposting
Why don't we try to just talk about clothing on here for once?
Discontinued:
>>18475998 (idk if this is going to work as this is the first thread i'm making, be lenient)
i'm gonna start this off by picking up what i left unanswered back in the last thread
>>18490758 >I have some orange tab 550 with the same squared off yoke. They have a similar barrel tapered leg too. Could be those?i honestly don't know, could be tho
if you posted em i might be able to tell you tho
>>18492137 >those are 1980s 505'si don't think they're 505s as the other pair i've thrifted with them are genuine 100% 80s (87 to be specific) 505s orange tabs and they don't look too much alike (especially in how tapered they are and in how wide the leg/thigh is) when compared
>post the back of the care tag for 100% confirmation.will do but it's kinda useless as it's entirely blanck except for the red writing on the front
>>18496284also forgive me if the pics are bad i'm not really apt at taking them
>>18496284also i've gotta add, just yesterday i went to the same market and found another two pairs of orange tabs (which i didn't get as they were 40 and 42 inch waists) which i'm pretty sure isn't normal
aren't these things supposed to be pretty rare?
and it's not even like i'm in the states, it's italy i'm writing from
also, another question, how are mustang jeans? good? bad?
>>18496287Orange tab isn't necessarily rare.
>>18496287>>18496324Correct me if I'm wrong but AFAIK orange tab was meant as a cheap line targeted at a younger audience launched in the late 70s. As such it featured trendier cuts and designs.

Recommend me some denim. I’m a poor balding 38 year old schizophrenic gay manlet who gets raped by Jews daily. I also can’t fight, drive an ancient shitbox, and weigh 100 lbs because my bowels don’t work. I also cannot have sex, except with men.
Is it possible just this once to try to not respond? Just to see what happens if for no other reason?
Is there a cut that is straight, somewhat slim or slimming but has enough room to acvomodate larger than average thighs? Or am I asking for an ontological impossibility?
I don't believe that people actually ever wore their jeans at the waist to do manual work with. Trying to bend over even slightly is so much more uncomfortable with waist high jeans, ain't no way people really put up with this shit in the past.
>>18496416People didn't have fat guts in the past. tubby.
>>18496331it was a fashionable line yeah, but with the whole "experimental thing" i don't think it was supposed to be cheap, especially since it was a way for levi's to branch out beyond workwear (which was genuine actual clothing for workers back then, not an overpriced trend)
>>18496272 (OP)>Wear slim jeansLooks effete, compliments from wife
>Wear straight cut, baggy jeansLooks based and feels self actualized
How do I balance these two feels?
>>18496402We shall see
>>18496416I size up once and use a belt to cinch it and I never have problems doing lawn work or other house stuff.
How many pairs of jeans do y'all have? I have 4 and it feels like a lot.
>>18496522>compliments from wifeShouldn't have married a rapidly aging millennial woman.
>How many pairs of jeans do y'all have?More than I'd like to admit. I guess I just like to collect things. But there's like four blue jeans on my regular rotation plus a black one and another one on tan/whiskey. I recently bought my first pair of white jeans for summer.
>>18496396jeet.
>>18496402we tried that. i didn't post on /fa/ for 5-6 months and he just talked to himself the whole time. posted even more if anything.
he did this exact same thing in the watch thread for years before he came here. he seethed every day for years about "the florida schizo" until they found out he's a bone skinny underage pajeet and laughed them out of the thread.
>>18496416jeans were 8-12oz not the super thick slubmaxx stuff you are probably used to. and the upper blocks were cut looser until the 60s/70s.
also the type of jeans everyone (not just denim bros) wear these days are based on the 501 which has been more of a fashion jean than a work jean ever since the 1950's due to hollywood.
there were completely different brands and fits of jeans back then that were geared more towards working, like these 1950's hercules carpenters in the pic. they evolved into the modern day carpenter pant and dungaree. before mid century they used to be worn over-sized and often had an adjustable waist.
>>18496629It’s time for your meds, schizo poorson.
the military and conservation corps used to do a lot of denim work pants and fatigues as well. especially the more contemporary ones with riveted buttons. they're a lot more functional and comfortable and long lasting than modern work pants if you're not a fattie and don't need the stretch.
>>18496639This is not your blog, poorson. You need to reduce the yapping and take your meds.
>>18496641everyone's sick of you. drink ganges water jeet.

>>18496665Gonna cry, schizo?
Do well made but reasonably priced work pants still exist or has every brand sold out to fashion? I'm looking for non larp type jeans or other work style pants, preferably in traditional cuts like high waisted with features like suspender buttons and fishtails or cinch backs for doing dirty car work and maintenance. I really like old style reproduction pants but most of them are in the $250-$300+ price range and are considered fashion pieces which really doesn't make me want to wear them like proper work wear. A well made jump suit could work as well I guess.
How many of you do manual labour or are you all doing blue-collar cosplay?

did you know the "chuddie" is a drawing of a jewish mischling kid who shot up a walmart and had nothing but bernie sanders stuff on his social media?
how did that ever become the avatar for non-self hating white men?
no wonder it's so ugly, hideous jew genetics.
how the half-jewish son of a jewish guy involved with a jewish sex trafficking cabal who posted nothing political except bernie sanders stuff somehow became the avatar for white men who don't hate themselves?
>>18496694Why the fuck would I want to do blue collar labour I'm a genius.
>>18496980So, blue-collar cosplay? Playing dress-ups with low culture costumes?
>>18496986Yes, I find it a great deal of fun.
>>18496991A bit odd. People generally grow out of costumed dress-up roleplaying after childhood.
>>18496997Due to my rare and world historical genius I've managed to maintain a child-like sense of play and wonder into adulthood.

Any way to prevent this dire fate?
>>18497359Hem your jeans to a proper length.
>>18496694roleplay now, did res construction/remodel for about a decade.
>>18496683round house has double fronts and prison blues has single fronts with suspender buttons. usa made budget friendly.
>preferably in traditional cuts like high waisted with features like suspender buttons and fishtails or cinch backs for doing dirty car work and maintenance. I really like old style reproduction pants but most of them are in the $250-$300+ price rangebelafonte ragtime's garage jeans are your endgame as long as you aren't too tall for them. wide fit, buckleback, suspender buttons, fishtail, everything you could want.
>and are considered fashion pieces which really doesn't make me want to wear them like proper work wear.get ~1960's-2000s vintage workwear, repro of it, or stuff inspired by it (both the jeans i mention above would qualify.) anything after around then is constructed triple needle with polyester thread and will be durable as fuck. will last longer than modern workwear because the fabric is not blended (no pilling) + wider fit + no elastine. the real mccoy's or bronson 50's era us mil denim work pants would be good examples.
old timey repro with the buckleback will also hold up better than modern workwear other than the stitching. if you are fine with occasionally repairing popped stitches then your endgame is probably the belafonte ragtime garage jeans -- as long as you are not too tall for them. they have a very generous wide fit, buckleback, fishtail, suspender buttons, everything you want.
the problem is even if they last you won't want to get spills/paint/chemicals/oil/stains on your fancy jeans unless you don't give a fuck. like that redditor mechanic who spilled battery acid on his selvedge the first day.
>>18496976so true.
but you forgot that the fbi confirmed that there was a retired fbi agent in the discord grooming him and watching the stream when it happened. & that the same retired fbi agent was also in contact with audrey hale.
>>18497359do not wear your jeans in heavy rain.
do not squat a lot in your jeans.
if that can't be avoided, you can slow it down and reduce them by washing the jeans more, tumble drying the jeans (you must size up in waist/length fair warning) and ironing them occasionally can reverse the knee bags but only to an extent.
knee bags are a big reason why i'm trying out western flares right now. my idea is that over time when i get knee bags they'll start to look closer to a straight leg.
>>18497433>>18497436Holy moly schizo. This ain’t your blog poorson. Reduce yapping. Take your meds. Get the leg lengthening surgery.
>>18497484When did you start the estrogen, poorson?

>jeans fade like crazy fucks in a couple of weeks
The fades I could get if I moved here.
>>18497433Absolutely freakish. Dysgenic. Disturbing.
>>18497433Looks like I'll probably go with the prison blues double knee or regular work jeans with buttons. Seems roundhouse discontinued their loggers with the buttons.
>belafonteI like what I see but it's certainly in that "would I really want to wear these while working with grease and nasty shit?" price, which unfortunately means larpwear. I might still pick them up though, those details are hard to find and I know Japanese are autistic about their denims. I'm well within their inseam.
>>18499450Those jeans fit like shit on him. Should return them.
>>18499450i hate it.
>>18498370it really just boils down to how wabi sabi you are or aren't. to some people oil and grease stained jeans covered in sashiko patches are a feature not a bug. for others its atrocious, or doesn't fit their wardrobe/vibe.
here's the jeans that the redditor spilled battery acid down the leg the first day he wore them. i would wear these if they weren't millenial taper jeans.
personally i only ever wore jap denim on the job when i was doing stuff like interior jobs, carpentry, roofing and other stuff that didn't involve paint chemicals etc. but now days i probably wouldn't care. my beaters that i used to paint in wound up looking pretty sweet in the long run.
>>18497728that's why indigo invitational is split into regions now.
there are guys who do get even crazier fades than the SEAmonkeys in cold dry northern climates but its always dudes who are homesteading in alaska and shit like that. snow can fade jeans super well too.
>>18499744>>18499746Reduce yapping son. This ain’t your blog.
>>18499878Whoa…epic. But you’re still a gay old schizo manlet poorfag with a dusty old shitbox who gets raped daily.
>>18499744> some people oil and grease stained jeans covered in sashiko patches are a feature not a bugThat's a fair point, it just hurts to think of doing it to pants that cost almost twice what some of suit trousers cost.

What the schizo yappin about?
It’s another schizo nervous breakdown.
>>18499985Take your meds and don't shoot up your school.
I’m mclovin it. I sense the schizo isn’t. What’s wrong schizo?
is the canadian tux still a thing? can you get away with a trucker jacket and jeans? same/different color? i feel theres too much denim.
>>18500107yes.
yes if its not millenial fit and you have a decent physique.
any color combo can work its more about silhouette and texture - color's mostly a consideration in how it affects the silhouette. silhouette carries the entire fit.
it is a bit too much denim for most people and you should usually leave the jacket undone.
>>18500112Another pants sagging niggerfaggot.
>>18500128i don't get why zoomers sag either. but use your imagination it'd be a good fit if he hiked his pants up an inch.
>>18499746I noticed that most people wearing jeans jere range from rapidly ageing millennials to turboboomers. Most of them wear levis or noname cheap brands that the local shops carry. The vast mayority of the jeans available are dark washes, very few are mid or light. Everyone hete is getting amazing vintage fades without caring and I'd wager without even knowing. Moreso the older folks who have zero care about fashion and are more reluctant to buy new clothes.
Id there a denim jacket that's cropped, or at least somewhat short in the torso, but also has side pockets? I'm broad shouldered and my current levis type 3 fiys tihht in the chest and sleeves, bit it's 72cm long and at 178cm/5'10 it goes to around my hip bones.
Ideally I'm looking for a type 3 or a 2, I already have a cropped type 1 with side pockets. Jas to be indigo or a very dark wash. Maybe something substantial, at least 15-17oz or more. Ideally 60-65cm long. Recs? Does such a thing even exist?
>>18500312How about Wrangler?
>>18500313Wrangler refuses to make anything in solid indigo and their dark washes kinda suck or are closer to mid wash at best. Otherwise I would have gotten a Wrangler already, all the jeans I've had from them have performed beyond expectation and price.
>>18500339Mmmm... nice, right color, right meassures, 16oz. If only it had bronze buttons instead of silver... but I could live with those.
>>18500312- that era of levi's type 3's where the handwarmer pockets were hidden and integrated into the V's in the front should be cropped on you. check measurements first. i wanna say they made them from some time in the 80's until the mid 90's.
- wrangler 24mjz (red tornado makes a better reproduction than the japanese)
- wrangler 124mj
- a lot of type 2's would fit the bill
>>18500426>i wanna say they made them from some time in the 80's until the mid 90's.If you don’t know, then keep your mouth shut. Is this what you do instead of a job, poorson? Aimless rambling and getting raped?
>>18500432Nah, he's right. I used to have a type 3 grom the 90s with side pockeys which was cropped. The problem with 90s jackets is that they used to have this oversized slouchy shoulders that looked terrible back then and dated these days.
>>18500497That was a bait response to trigger him. I don’t care about denim.
Unfortunately I think the schizo is about to get banned and his posts deleted for the 500th time this year. Not surprising given he never contributes anything of value and has no original thoughts, but I saved his best vocaroo for posterity:

>>18500512>have you seen zoomers lately? they're all wearing oversized drop shoulders.Is the 90s revival still on? I thought they burned through it already. Tbh I don't pay much attention to whatever zoomers are doing these days what with me being on the older side. At any rate slouchy shoulders make you look small and weak, lile you borrowed your dad's coat. I've always preferred straight lines on jackets.
>>18500551I know you’re a faggot but come on schizo son. You’re making this too easy
>>18500553>I thought they burned through it already.kinda but they never figured out how to wear clothes that correctly fit them. i can't say i have ever seen a zoomer wearing a shirt or jacket that fit correctly in the shoulder before. i think they think it makes their shoulders look wider (it doesn't)
>>18500555sure is a lot of words and excuses to not post a timestamped pic of your shredded physique.

>>18503074Polo jeans are good, but nothing beats Japanese Selvedge. Slim style is currently not considered stylish so I'd recommend staying away from it for another 10-15 years.
>>18500312You're really limiting your options by looking for side pockets. If you are willing to forego these, the lee 101j the heritage of being the original type 3, and fits the bill. More modern Lee jackets (like the 220j) have pockets and still fit pretty cropped, compared to other brands, but the 101j is where its at.
>>18503101>>18503074As a zoomer I can report there is a minor Hedi Slimane revival going on with the kids right now so skinnies are acceptable if you have the build for it. Just don't look like a Jerry boy, make sure your top/shoes look cohesive, and if you don't have extremely low body fat then know you look like a complete fatass wearing skinny jeans.
>>18503032It's mostly a bot talking to itself, with the ocassional poster. I'd like to see the progress if you can be bothered.
>>18503189I know, but my own experience shows that a jacket without side pockets will remain unworn most of the time. Otherwise yeah, I would have gotten a 101j or even a cheap rider long ago and called it a day.
>>18503194Zoomers wanting to be ahead of the curve are already pivoting to slim cuts. Rapidly ageing millennials never let go of their slim and skinny jeans (against better judgement). Malls still carry a variety of slims and skinnies and Levis' most sold model still is the 511.
You can tell went trends are aboit to reverse when they reach their apex. In this case, some zoomers on insta are taking the baggy fits to the maximum possible (just saw a skinny guy wearing a size 76, no kidding). I assume that in less than five years, when gen alpha hits the teens in sufficent numbers they will reclaim the slim cuts and laugh at zoomers slouchy fits. That's the cycle of life.
>>18503205Fair enough, though I'd still consider other lee jackets, I've got a ~y2k indigo Lee rider w/ pockets that measures around 60x60, much boxier/cropped than a modern type 3 modified. More limited choice of nice denim than a type 3 repro for sure, especially if you're not gonna go used. I'm also looking for a nice type 2 at the moment.
>>18503253I'm not adverse to buy used or vintage. The problem is that most of the used & vintage stuff is faded to hell and I wanted something in dark blue at least, crisp indigo if possible, like picrel.
>>18503266You're wrong for wanting that.
>>18503266Why the fuck would you get used jeans in dark indigo? If they are used then they must have been washed at least a couple of times, especially by the thrift store to make them clean and sanitary before reselling them. So that will make it lose a ton of color and give it a regular dark wash look like picrel.
>>18503268Nay.
>>18503299Precisely, the problem with used is that I won't be able to get a dark indigo. Dark blue would do, but even so, hard to find vintage stuff that's not faded as fuck.
>>18503205>my own experience shows that a jacket without side pockets will remain unworn most of the timeJust get a small crossbody bag to carry your phone if that's what it's about, in a cropped jacket the side pockets are gonna be small as fuck and you won't fit a phone in there anyways.
>>18503403It's not abput carrying a phone. I got this sorta tick that I need to put my hands in the pockets of my jacket from time to time.
I'm perfectly aware that my requisites make it hard to find a jacket, that's why I'm asking.
>>18503101brother i dont follow trends but 511s look really sharp on my skinny ass. ive tried other styles like the 501 or varic straight leg polo. they are fucking massive for my build.
>>18503842The 511 is the archetypical millennial cut. Of course this board is gonna hate it because is out of fashion... even though it's still Levis most sold model.
>>18504172>even though it's still Levis most sold modelAnd that's a good thing? We hold ourselves to higher standards on this board, or we used to at least...
>>18504209It's more a commentary on how slim fit jeans are supposedly out and yet remaing the most popular. Only a handful of fashion-forward zoomers wear baggy pants. The rest, zoomers and rapidly ageing millennials alike, are still stuck in the slim fit phase and probably will be until it comes around once again.
I understand the elitist attitude, but a trend is not really a trend if nobody follows it.
>>18502739Can we get some specifics on why the pants fit is bad? I've been considering copping some and I'm curious about the cut, but "simply ass" is really no information at all.
