What's the chances of me getting 2" of stretch in the waist on a pair of one wash 1947? My size 36 currently measures 34" waist. 

Any way to clean a leather patch? My Iron Heart one is all dirty, I probably should have treated it a bit. 

NVM found my answer. 

It's out there somewhere, but I've given up heh. Every time I try something that seems promising *something* is off. These Iron Heart 634 and I'll buy a Sugar Cane 1947 in size 36, think that's a good spread for now

I didn't know Sugar Canes were so affordable on Rakuten now. Looks like it's time to replace my 'ol beat up pair. 

@Crat I had a pair of 1947s in size 35. As you know I'm a fellow weightlifter, they were a bit constricting in the waist and hips when I was around 200lbs. I can fit into them now at 186lbs but I'm going to buy a 36 this time around. 

I'd like to find something with an 8.5-8.75" leg opening with a 13.5" thigh and a long front and back rise, but alas that seems impossible. 

Anyone got a picture of faded back pockets of 3000?

So what cuts should I be looking at then? I had a pair of 510 19oz in size 35, the top block was a bit too tight while the knee and leg opening were great! Thanks! 

I had a pair of 510 19oz that I loved and wore out. Going to buy another pair, but just wanted to check if these were the largest cut samurai jeans?

What's the RRL belt? Looks awesome, I love military nylon belts. 

Damn, I'm mental. Been visiting San Fran every year and didn't know Self Edge had a store. I'll make that my first stop, like the brands they carry there more. 

Best stores to shop for jeans in San Fran? I have a little mini mission while visiting there to find a pair of jeans that fits, gotta be some place that stocks full cut jeans. I will try Unionmade and see how their LVC and Tellason stock works on me. 

Oh if anyone got a Medium in the ISAORA reikon pants and wana trade for my large hit me up

Just copped a pair of isaora reikon/judo pants.. We'll see how they turn out. Not sure how I feel about elastic cuffs

I have a pair in Large that I like but they are pretty big in the waist for me. Which is crazy because everything is usually too small on me. 

I like those pants, good stuff 

Anyone pick up the ISAORA minimalist bomber on the sample sale? Wondering what you think of it. I'm looking for a light jacket like that. 

I need to step up my Tshirt and base layer game.. Plain Uniqlo Ts not cutting it, need something with interested hem lines or something. Silent is too expensive. Any suggestions?

We can try sudenlee, but always unsure how they do sample sales. As they can't return the stuff and can't guarantee you will pay for what you buy.. 

Yea, if you see any cool stuff in Large I'd be interested. Bomber, insulated shirts, drop crotch pants, those shorts / legging combos. 

Just wondering, why does New Balance shoes get paired pretty often with SISP and stuff that falls under Urban Techwear?

Any other brands share the ISAORA asthetic? Mostly looking for inspiration and fitpics.

What online stores stock ISAORA? Wanted to try their pants, hoping the XL isn't super duper slim. But want to sale hunt them. Thanks!

Anyone had a pair of these Danner Melee 6"?

Seems like they could work well. 

Did anyone end up getting any of the Isaora iO stuff? I'm interested in the henley, but I can't tell from the model pic if it fits huge or he's just wearing 2 sizes too big.

I got the ioFleece. I think it's pretty nice, it's big and fluffly. I got a large and seems like their stuff runs TTS off their size chart.

Edit: nvm found it 

The 1947s were one of the directions I was thinking of guiding you...they are a killer cut for all sorts of body types, and if you've got big enough legs can actually be a pretty slim and fitted cut.  What size did you try?  A potential solution along these lines could be trying to track down a pair of 3sixteen CL-100x which fits very similar to a 1947, but uses 3sixteens proprietary denim from Kuroki that used O/E spun weft yarns and are thusly very soft.

 

If you like the denim on the Iron Hearts, maybe dialing in the right size for you in a pair of Beatle Busters would do the trick?  More taper than the 634s for a given thigh measurement.

 

30bsp from 3sixteen also has a fairly large top block with a significant taper.  If you sized it the same as your 634s, I imagine it would achieve what you are looking for at least in terms of silhouette.  

 

Does it seem like the discomfort you are experiencing is coming mostly from the cut of the jeans, the hand of the fabric, or incidental things like the seams rubbing against your legs?

Thanks again! The 1947s I had were a size 34. I think a 36 would be better, I bought them years ago when I fit into them. That pair of 3-sixteen sounds nice, something of a soft denim with a lighter weft would be nice. 

I'll check the measurments for 30bsp, I think I'm looking for something with more of a taper than what my Iron Hearts are. They are great though, just the 9.5" leg opening can eat up some shoes, look great with my Aldens though. 

Discomfort is mostly from the cut of the jeans and a hard time locating a good fit. Always seems like either the wasit, front rise, back rise, thigh is too small. I need something like 12.5" front rise, 17" back rise, 13.5" thigh, 8.75 leg opening. The Iron Hearts I have are 21oz but they are so soft it makes them comfortable.
