General Discussion

I'd ask him. My first shirt took 2 weeks. This one it's been 3 weeks.

No. But the "Japan 16 Oz. Orange ID" is. 100%. I have the Okayama Std. and the "Japan 16 Oz. Orange ID." They're the same denim.

no this one www.weargustin.com/store/615 ??

Isn't the Okayama Std lighter than the crosshatch? I found an Indonesian brand that has both the Okayama Std fabric and another 16.5 oz crosshatch that has a brownish orange ID that has similar ID as Okayama Std.

Manny is doing a great job. His are the only jeans I've been buying lately.

Been there done that.  I was told not to wear a pair of RRL denim chino's by my then boss in NY.  I told him they were chinos not jeans.  He responded but they are jeans.  I told him they are chinos made out of denim.  He said so they are jeans.  I said no they are denim chinos .  I then went into what the difference between jeans and chinos are.  Jeans can be made out of denim or even corduroy material and are typically a 5 pocket.  I showed him my denim chinos had 4 pockets with the front being slash.   I then went into asking if he doesnt want jeans or is it denim fabric.  "Neither" he said.   "Oh ok now I am clear" I said.  The next week I wore my Left Field indigo canvas chinos and was told I couldn't wear those.  I responded they were chinos.  He said but they are blue.  I said yes they are.  He said I told you not to wear jeans.  I said these are chinos .  He said they are denim..  I said no they are canvas and asked him to feel them.  He said they look like jeans.  and I said I QUIT, im going to work for this new denim brand who has a Charismatic guy who might have the next big thing where i can wear denim everything.  A year later I am working for the same company I left but now I can wear jeans because i work from home.

Of course the part bout me quitting like that didnt happen that way but it sounded better

Don't ask Naked & Famous what a chino is, they seem to be confused between the fabric and the style!

Roger That.
It's a tad big (as I wanted) so it went for a hot soak and a cool dryer run.
A ton of indigo bleed!

Assume it is the work shirt he mentioned a page or two ago. Pretty sure it is 12oz navy duck canvas.

Ordered Oct 20 (JeanMaker probably would have gotten it done sooner but I wanted different buttons).
12oz canvas (not selvedge) with Red interior stitching.
I sent a pic of another shirt and asked to have it made similarly.
Manny texted a few questions and pics as it was being made.
