I've got 3 pairs of old jeans that I don't wear any more because I have better jeans that I've replaced them with.

2 pairs of old indigo ones, one pair of waxed dark grey (idk why I have them either)

Any ideas other than cutting them into shorts? Or creative ideas for shorts, even? Especially stumped for the waxed grey ones cos they're a lot grosser than the indigos.

Was thinking of sewing a softshell jacket, but I found a nice Danish one for a 150 that suits my needs. Should I just get that and add the features I want to it? I for sure wanna add an acronym jacket sling and a gravity pocket, and a few interior pockets. Also on the pipeline is tapering some nice Levis cargos and adding a front thigh knife pocket like prps.

While its important to understand and emphasize the fundamental message of the gospel, found once for example in John 3:16, to say that we shouldn't encourage each other to hear powerful sermons, or listen to prominent theologians, is to take a step backward in growing in the Christian faith and ignore the calling to know Him more.

Yes, but there are things that you can do so you stop loving God. Sin is an absence of God, and when you sin, you push yourself away from the Kingdom of Heaven, God doesn't banish you, you do it to yourself.
Many contemporary Christians like to forget that disobeying God has very dire consequences, that although he loves us, he does have wrath.

So I saw this today on a sale rack and I bought it on a whim.

It's pretty big on me, but that's prefect for what I want it for. It Reminded me of a kanye fit I saw on here once and although it turned out no to be quite the same style of top, I think it could work.

I basically want to put holes throughout it and cut around the neck to make it look beat up and I'll wear a white shirt under it and probably roll up the selves
