Left Field Jeans

[Formula Pfaff]

 The details on both of those are just awesome.

 

I am loving that work hat. Definitely gonna want to pick that up when its available.

[jmfr]

I just noticed the new (at least I think its new) slubby Kaihara Chelseas. Is that denim going to be available on the Greasers?

[Left Field]

@jmfr it's just a limited run so we did a few denims in one fit or the other. Trying to keep things interesting by bringing in a lot of different denim options.

LF Sweats hit the gym trying to get some knee bags...

Gotcha thanks

My traveling sweats traveled over my fence and next door to my neighbor where she wore them to church for a Palm Sunday service.  Then, to spectate at hockey, visit a roller rink, shop at Target, and then to hang out on her front porch with a glass of wine. 

Now... how many pieces of clothing can be that versatile?!

Although, she did complain that they were baggy in the butt and not too sexy...

Has anyone noticed a fade along where the drawstring rides?  Just noticed it today on mine.  Think it'll be a good one.

[happybabyyoga]

@pepperdavies--- definitely fading around pockets and seams.  Very very very light fading at drawstring--- if I look hard enough.

Got my 23oz greasers in the mail yesterday ill try and get some fits of these up tomorrow. They are much softer then I expected and so far I'm lovin the sized up fit too! @altochris let's definitely have some friendly competition on these bad boys!

[ThinFinn]

the greaser is the fuller cut, no?

Hey guys.  I made a little gif to illustrate the difference between the two fits.  I know that (especially on the Superfuture community) that people are very discerning when it comes to fit, but the Greaser and Chelsea were designed as fits that almost everyone could wear.

 

Shown in the gif is our new gold line 17 oz. Cone in size 31.

Yes

Let's go! It seems like everyone is getting theirs about the same time, so we would probably just need to agree on a period/end date.

How warm are the indigo sweat pants, how suitable for the warmer months?

And how to size them again.

5 mile run in my sweats today led to blue pocket legs again....

I'd say size down 1 if they're going to be getting a lot of wear.  Mine have stretched out a good bit, but probably wouldn't be the case if I was only wearing them a couple nights a week after work.  I haven't found them to be any warmer than jeans, but we haven't really seen any days higher than 70 in NY yet.

Any washes yet?!

[happybabyyoga]

@pepperdavies--- Yes!  Washed cold/ hung dry.  Washed hot/fully dry in dryer.  Washed again warm/fully dry in dryer.  Getting some cool iphone fade though.

[altoclefchris]

Anyone else's 23oz come in? And Satchel, where's the fit pics?

[satchelbmoore]

Do you expect much stretching in the new 17 or 18oz fabrics?  Thinking about getting one or both pairs and unfortunately I don't have the luxury of trying a pair on before hand.  I've worn 31's in 3Sixteen ST cuts and it seems to fit me well so I was thinking about the Chelsea cut.

 

Also, any plans to do some cool new fabrics in the chinos? 

 

Gracias!

[Left Field]

@B2 Cone always stretches a lot more than the JP, I've been wearing the 23's and not a whole lot in the waist in 2 or so weeks. We are working on some heavy selvedge dyed twill in khaki and caramel. Cone 10 oz selvedge twill in Field pant and Miner in cutting and 13 oz olive calvary twill in the Field Pant. I wear all my jeans and chinos tight from the get go because of the stretch.

Hey guys.  Just wanted to do a little update.  We recently combined the Left Field and Choctaw Ridge websites.  We felt it made the most sense so that people could combine their orders.  Also reshot all of the Choctaw stuff for the integrated websites.

^^that makes sense. get choctaw to the people!

 

in other news. I got my 23oz greasers this week. so dope! not painfully stiff but so solid! i've definitely found myself a bit sweatier than in other jeans. very happy that i sized up from a 31 to a 32. (you're welcome whoever got the last 31! and sorry to any 32s that missed out.)

 

As expected, the greaser fit is spot on and even the double cuff isn't as crazy as i expected. i think i'm going to forgo hemming them as long as possible. i only fear a bit for the union special but it sounds like andrew has had success hammering/hemming a few pairs.

 

Also, this is probably my favorite Facebook moment in a long time: pretty sweet to have this randomly come up in my feed. we should sign her up for the contest! special thanks to susan for inspiring shelisa at pho-riday last week.

 

 

back to the 23oz: i'll try to get some more detail shots and obviously fade shots as i can.

@satchelbmoore nice tretorns with the greasers! 

Welcome to Shelisa!  Great to have the female vibe in the competition.

On Saturday, my LF sweats are traveling to Claremont, CA for an extended stay at Scripps College!  I can't wait to see what happens to them in CA.   

Peace,

Susan

Any kind souls out there with access to the 17oz. Cone care to share some close-ups or natural light pics? I'm having a hard time getting a sense of the fabric from the swatch LF posted alongside the fit pics. Anything distinctive about this stuff aside from the weight? It's tricky to see if it's much different in character from the 13 oz & the 15oz. Thanks in advance...Cheers.

[altoclefchris]

Nice pictures, satchel!

[satchelbmoore]

chris and guthrie, it's on!
