By no means have I ever been a regular around here, and it's been a long time since I've posted anything. After doing some closet organizing this weekend, decided I wanted to post some of the jeans I've been wearing over the last 5 or so years. The photos suck; I don't have a good camera.

501xx / 508 Rigid / 1947 501xx / ROYs (RS1? Whatever he was selling through his website back in the day)

Both 501s I have and continue to wear in the field as a geologist... In fact I wore them both through my university undergrad, grad and summer work too.  I wash them often, spin cycle, usually too lazy to turn inside out... I couldn't even tell you how many times. The 47s were washed twice this week alone. I do home improvement and paint in them too. Comfy as all hell. Still give the 1947s casual wear, the standard XX not so much.

The 508s are office jeans that have had light field days on occasion. They look more faded in person.

The ROYs I still like to wear casually, especially cottaging.  I take them camping too. Never felt right working in them, I guess because they were the only ones of the group that didn't cost $30. 

Clearly I'm not getting mad 3d combs. I love the natural look on all these pairs though.

WG have lower rise and are tapered

Looking awesome goki! Are those the regular indigo or deep indigo?

I own jeans by boths companies, a pair of Weird Guys and a pair of New Standards, and frankly you can't go wrong either way.

N&F are certainly a good choice if you want to be "different" in that they aren't overly popular

APCs are a good choice due to the fairly good repuatation they have established

If all else fails, buy both or pick the one that fits you better!
