What i'm saying is I just read through the whole content of yours and it was quite great but because I am significantly more of a visual learner, I found that way to be a lot more helpful. well, let me know what you think.

It should be noted though that it has been totally redone. Gone are the bedazzled iron-ons that could be applied by anyone. What they have now are true vintage machines and a Master Tailor to alter/customize. I'm curious to know how this seems disingenuous?

I’m curious to know how this seems disingenuous?

I've been searching all my life for you. They're so perfect it makes me sad because I probably can't have them. To the jeans in the picture hanging on the wall..

They’re so perfect it makes me sad because I probably can’t have them.

I went there in 2000 and they had similar stuff available. I wonder if the hot-tub is still there so you can shrink-to-fit jeans. http://www.metroactive.com/papers/sfmetro/11.08.99/style-9943.html Evan, you’re not wrong.

(I'm thinking circa 2005?) It wasn't quite as Americana oriented, but the services were basically the same. "We'll add things to your jeans, mess them up, and we'll call it custom/tailored." I have to say... this shop seems disingenuous. I should probably note that I wear foreign-made 501 shrinks, and I am aware of how that colors my opinion.

It also came in a off white twill? I believe, with a cinch-back. Actually, that jacket was in stores early this spring. It also came in a off white twill? I believe, with a cinch-back.
