    I've never learned that much about denim in a segment of 10 minutes before in my life.

    Fantastic work gentlemen. One of these days I'm going to get around to learning how to dress like an adult... This video could very well be my first step into that larger world.

    I really enjoyed that and I learned a little something, too. Off to find some APC jeans.

    Jesse, there's this product called Tilex. For the next time you do a shoot in your shower...
  • Put This On 20 days ago
    Boinx, that was my shower (Adam's, not Jesse's), and I wouldn't dare use Tilex because it would only disrupt the piss patina I've meticulously handycrafted for that sought-after period look. (ProTip: For "faux piss patina" in half the time, rub some feces in your tile!)
  • boinx 20 days ago
    LOL! Thanks for clearing Jesse's good name; And for the faux urine tips.

    Hmm....dont wear a denim jacket with denim jeans? Actually do.
  • Mark Jaquith 19 days ago
    How about "don't wear a denim jacket — ever" ?

  • Sandwich is a lot more wee than I imagined.

    Beautiful, wonderful work at a time that I so desperately need advice to stop dressing like a hobo.
  • lonelysandwich plus 20 days ago

    Great web series. It reminds me of the Esquire tips that used to air on MojoHD this should totally be picked up as a tv show.

    went from getting clothes from a church basement to making $500 jeans, seriously??
  • lonelysandwich plus 17 days ago
    I know, right?! It's pretty inspirational—someone who's come from a relative lack of something very essential, and eventually attaining a mastery of the craft of making that thing. That's what you mean, right? Yeah, that's what you mean.

    Great show. What was it shot on? Looks great!
  • lonelysandwich plus 15 days ago
    Thank you, Scott. Mostly shot on Panasonic HPX150, with a little help from our old friend the Canon HV20 on B camera. And snot on the lens.

  • spillthechai 15 days ago
    Wow! Probably the greatest video i will ever come across relating to jeans which are, if I don't say so myself, my favourite genus of pant. Two questions: Was that guy in character? What program did you use to edit?
  •  
  • Jesse Thorn plus 13 days ago
    Thank you for the kind words everybody!

  • elichrusos 10 days ago
    I enjoyed this thoroughly despite neither being a man, nor being the kind of woman who likes to look at them.
  • Jesse Thorn plus 10 days ago
    A lady who likes ladies friend of mine told me, "this makes me want to go back to dressing like a boy!"
  •  
  • very interesting but i'm pretty sure i will never be the guy who gives his jeans a bath or spends more than $40, tops, on a pair of jeans. My weapon of choice these days is the new Gap line, which fits well and can be easily found for a discount.

    Question: Can you explain what you mean by "raw" denim? Does that simply mean jeans that aren't prefaded/destructed, or does it mean something else?
  •  
  • …also, I meant to add, I'm looking forward to when you start discussing more dressed-up issues like ties, suits, etc. as this info will probably be more helpful to me.

    and: it's more useful to most people, I would suspect, to find out about quality products that are a little bit affordable, rather than stuff that seems to be marketed more to Saudi princes.
  •  
  • could you at some point discuss how to pick out a garment by looking at the quality of the fabric and stitching? ok, i'm done flooding your thread… for now
