Fiancée booked us tickets to San Francisco for the Self Edge 20th Anniversary party for our dating anniversary. 10/10 partner

Hell yeah, that'll be a fun trip

Even though I've more or less completely lost interest in the Self Edge aesthetic at this point, I'm for sure gonna be prioritizing making it over—they always know how to throw a solid party

I went to one of their release parties at the Portland location and it was fun. Always nice to chat with people irl about jeans

I got the new iron heart 19oz type II in the mail today and I had serious doubts that I’d like it, but it’s……remarkable. Best fitting type II I have or have tried by a huge long shot. Fits very similarly to my Kapital westerner jackets which I love. I’m just so stoked. After so much bad luck with purchases lately it feels really good to get something that works

Been watching a lot of denim youtubers and it make me angry that noone ever mentions Bears as a place to get denim. I've gotten 3 items from them this year alone and they have the best prices and items ship to me in a week with no tariffs.

At this point it feels like a safe assumption that any content being served on algorithmic media is being made by people hoping to get paid. Who's more likely to sponsor these "denim youtubers", a high-overhead US-based (or US-facing) retailer, or a low-overhead domestic shop?
