no. Winterland has at least one i believe, there have been a few of the wool camel check shirts (one of which i received and sold), at least 3 of the mystery twill-bray fabric, and the postal h-bone shirt i received that arrived with snaps and buttons. the postal h-bone was sent back and i eventually received a replacement with all buttons. i finally tried it on for the first time this weekend and it has a really strange yoke that puffs up on the back. it looks like i'm a hunchback and is very odd. not sure if it would tame itself and settle over time after it breaks in...but it would look super goofy until it did. I have two Lawless Western shirts and I like them a lot. It's too bad as they made great shirts but we know the rest of the story. I'm still owed one western shirt also. Here is a link to them. Should be able to start wearing them soon even though having very warm end of summer in Minnesota. I won't complain though. My Kaihari also had puffy back shoulders until I wore it a lot and did a soak. It totally disappeared. 14oz Kaihara selvedgestyle.com/thread/264?page=258.5oz Chambray? selvedgestyle.com/thread/264?page=72Dude you got teh topaz thread on the pbj shirt. I know the shirt screams blue in your face, but it settles lovely after some washes, i thin your combination will look really cool after maybe 30 washes or so. Just wash it everytime you wash something Else blue! Mine is too small so i stretch it to be able to squeeze into it after wash, i love this shirt. I was unsure in the beginning but as pbj says:its fun to watch it loose indigo over time. I wish i had the topaz thread and i wish it fitted, but i like it so much Im wearing it at home even tho its a little claustrophobic. |

The only gripe I have other than that back puff are the damn forearms. They are super small as we have all talked about before. I work my forearms out but I by no means have popeye like forearms but their forearms on their shirts are disproportionately small IMO. Other than that though they really are some pretty damn good shirts. |

Yeah its a shame really, all of mine are too small, but if they had production flow and no problems I would totally have gotten a customized pattern, locked in the fit and gotten more!
I like the tightness of the forearms, but I dont like that the workshirt version only have a little slice after the cuff so there is no way to fold it over the elbows. My checkered one has a third button under the forearms (like normal shirts) so that one can be folded up.
I would have made it shorter by 2", bigger p2p by 2" so that it can be washed, and just 1" longer slice on the arm openings, or always used the arm-style with the "third" button. Cutwise it looks like a bigger version would fit pretty good, but I would also need slightly wider shoulders.

I've got 2 shirts,(15oz Montana-9.5oz chambray), and a vest and like them all. I'll say it again "what an opportunity lost".

I have two (13 oz candiani) and the "Twimbray" or "Chambwill"? and there are definitely two well-crafted shirts. Oregon style. I had a third in the Cone military-dye denim offering but that's my only lost opportunity. Let's remember that the craftsmanship (my apparent word of the day) is something we can attribute to Manny (same guy who worked with Sal on Indigogene) and not to the person who can't run a business for longer than it takes to heat up popcorn. The benefit is finding an opportunity that those craftsman (sewers) end up at IF it isn't being run by whatever the name of the next company is that turns up on the email bounce-backs.

The shirts annoy me the most. I had 4 ordered, and was really excited about them( for the first 6 months).... I need to finally pony up some cash and get a few new ones somewhere else,as I had been holding off for many months waiting for Roman the Rat to deliver. Jeans I can get anywhere, but I really really liked the shirt offerings.

 The tanXtan that was asked about yesterday. The collar is super annoying right now because, if you guys remember, I lightly waxed it with some Fjällräven wax... And then it went right in the closet, smashed between other clothes... I'm sure it could be pressed on to submission, but not only am I UnTucked... I'm also UnIroned... It's part of my look, lol |

Untucked AND unironed. Now that's what I'm talking about, although sometimes my wife will comment about a shirt being wrinkled, in which case I have to say "overruled".

90% of my button ups go to the dry cleaners... T-shirts, IH and all other denim & workshirts get the normal washer/dryer treatment... Hopefully, I'm not lazy, and I hang them up before wrinkles set in... Usually I don't, lol. Maybe I'll just them with some water... Maybe in the winter I'll toss them in the dryer for a few mins... Usually, I do NOTHING

Do I dare pick a pair up from someone? yeah I'd agree with unnamed in that they are a decent, solid pair of jeans. I didn't really sell mine because I didn't like them so much but because they sewed up short (33" inseam is highwater territory for me) and I have several other pairs of heavyweight jeans that I prefer over them so they wouldn't have gotten any time in my rotation even if they did sew up with the right inseam. |

I think if you were to sample a cross-section of people who sold off their LD, they probably did so because of a certain level of disgust towards them and not really wanting to support the corruption. Nice jeans, but I think people would rather buy from a reputable brand regardless of the deal.

I regret selling my Gustin Super Heavies...I sold them because I bought the lawless super heavies and figured they were the shit....sold all my lawless stuff. Couldn't be happier.

Did anyone else end up with a pair of their 15 oz "slub"? It was the dark indigo with no designation of where it was from. I got a RTW pair and wore them for the first time this week. They are transferring dye like mad, as in if I rested my palm on them for 30 seconds, I then had a blue palm. So I did an hour long cold soak which didn't help. So I then did a cold machine wash, still didn't help or slow down the dye loss. Have them in the washing machine again right now for another cold wash but with detergent this time. Just wondering what the deal is with this fabric.

Any of you guys experience this before...a denim that would not stop bleeding color even after several soaks/washes?

My cone peach was the smurfiest ive ever had even after multiple soaks. The wash tamed them tho so you have me beat.

I put them through 2 machine washes last night with the 2nd rinse option selected. They're still drying but when I was hanging them to dry my hands ended up blue. We'll see what they're like after they dry

They were good jeans, I just can't wear something made by jackasses. It bugs me. I understand others who don't have this issue and it's totally understandable. I just have that idiosyncrasy and have no problem understanding why others may not care. |

Same the twill chambray thing actually was cool fabric I bet it will fade awesome just couldn't wear lawless on my body. Felt gross. Like worse than walking out of that really grimy strip club in Montreal. |
