  1. few SINN owner on here, i know.. copping a 556 and having a hard time choosing between leather band or bracelet? i think the latter looks better but it's a good few extra coins. help?

     

    If you like the bracelet just pony up for it as others have said. In general I'm not such a big fan of them so I would go with the band as it's the cheaper option. I don't like the stock Sinn leather band so it was put aside in favor of other options that I've put onto mine over time.

  2. Andrew, I know you guys probably don't want to release too much info on the 120x jacket, but I was wondering if its gonna be available this year sometime or early next?

    Edit: I saw a page back you said its for the fall.

     

    We hope to release it mid Fall, hopefully end of September/early October depending on how quickly the factory can finish it up. We will snap some photos of the jacket soon.

  3. Had a little meet & greet at our Philadelphia account Totem yesterday. Zack V. came by in his 7 month old SL-120x shadow selvedge jeans and they looked crazy - we had to snap a photo of them.

  4. I had a question about the ST-130x:

    When they were first produced, did they have a misprint on the pocket bags, showing 14.5 oz, not 17oz? 

     

     Yes you're correct. The factory and print shop mixed it up and we received the shipment with that print in them. It's impossible to take a pocketbag out once it's been sewn in and we thought it'd be a colossal waste to just trash the whole lot, so we ran it by our retailers and no one seemed to mind. So this is actually a fun way to be able to tell if you got a 130x from the first production lot.

  5. what's the story on the pair of jeans that the model wears in that photoshoot.. they look gangst. (http://vsco.co/blog/...ng-custom-denim

    )

     

    We borrowed them from a customer, they are a two year old pair of SL-BNY1 left hand twill Kaihara denim jeans that were sampled out in our ST cut - so in effect they are the only ones of their kind in existence. They wore in beautifully and since we like to try and include a beat up pair in any shoot we do, we included them.

  6. Did I imagine that you guys have a jacket in the works? Can you provide any details? Did you provide details and I missed them?

     

    No info was posted yet but we are making a denim jacket for the fall out of 120x and 220x denim. More details forthcoming...

  7. When will Up there Store in melbourne get a restock of the SL line?

     

    We shipped them some restocks recently; are they still out of sizes? Let us know, we'll get you sorted.

     

    Kmoney, I ordered this pair from Danny at rivet and hide. Initially ordered the 34 because I like the fit of my flathead 3002s, which are 34s... They were too big so I got the 33s. I love the fit, and they are just starting to show some fading. I soaked on th esame day of purchasing, Luke warm for just under an hour. They honestly didn't shrink too much. Hope you like them. Post a fit pic.

     

    reedwill, your 21bsps fit perfectly and you are really going to enjoy how they progress. Enjoy them!

     

     

    heres my 34bsp - brown weft 6 months one wash

     

     

     

     

    These are unreal. Would you be down to let us borrow them for a few days to shoot some photos? Have they been washed?

     

    8ish months of lightwear, 3 soaks. the 120x seriously shines like no other in the outdoors

     

     

     

     

    Nice, these will really show some nice aging in the coming months.

  8. Just received my Tees. They look and feel great, however I think I need to size up. They're snug already.

     

     

     

    The fit looks perfect but I agree that after a wash (especially if they are mistakenly put in the dryer) they will end up too tight. Sizing up one is a good idea.

    First day of wear and I already love these jeans. I have been wearing flatheads for the past five months and I thought that the pioneer series denim was awesome, but these jeans have blown me away. I wouldn't be surprised if the flatheads are permanently relegated to the back of my closet...

     

     

     

    That post-soak fit is perfect. Enjoy them!

  9. Ordered the SL chinos in beige, can't wait to get 'em.

    I'm assuming the details are just about the same as the ST-44X?

     

    The details are the same but the chino fabric is slightly different than what we used on the ST-44x. It's a white line selvedge and the hand of the fabric is a bit more uniform. You should have gotten them by now - how do they fit and how are you liking them?

     

    Can't believe I missed out on these caps, they look killer. If anyone knows of any on the market I would love to cop one.

     

    Don't lose hope...

  10. Thank you! I'll see how they fit and then account for some shrinkage. But I fear I got the wrong size then.

     

    Max, if you wash them in cold water and hang them up to dry you won't see much shrinkage, just a little bit in length. But if you can't be bothered to hang dry and want to be able to throw them in the dryer, then you may want to consider the size up. Post up some fit photos when you get them in, I can tell whether they'll shrink too much for your liking.

     

    Thanks for the support!

  11. Just got my 34BSPs today. Are these likely to stretch much in the top block (waist and thighs)? Waist is just a bit too tight. I got a size 32, usually a true 33.

     

    We find that our 17oz denim stretches a bit more than our flagship 14.5, so as long as you can button them up you should get 1.5" of stretch in the waist after 2 weeks of wear. You shouldn't have to size up.

     

    Hi,

    Is there any updated ETA on the heavyweight 3Sixteen hoodies?

    Thanks!

     

    Next week!

     

    Any updates on the ST-44X yet?

     

    Shipping to us from the factory on Friday, so these will also be available next week. Thanks for your patience!

  12. Any plans for the 30 bsp cut in a shadow selvedge? I know it's probably a long shot but ya know.

     

    No plans as of now but that's not a bad idea since the 30BSP cut is the one we make that fits me the best personally. We'll see...

  13. The Flat Head socks are so ridiculously great I bought two pair for when Ms. Ready steals one.  So now I look like a hero.

     

    I dig the tightened mid-foot weaving but the best touch is the rubberized anti-slip branding on the bottom... papa ajchen, you know what's up!

     

    Indeed I do. Now I need to cop a pair.
