  1. Haven't handled the denim, but the DW6602 is available for $110 on Rakuten. It's low-end, but I like the cut.

    I love my jeans with a spicy taper too.

    Can the thigh measurement they list really be that small? Pretty much every jean Hickorees sells has questionably small thigh measurements listed...

  2. Has anyone succesfully done phone orders from American Rag (or know if the do them)?

    EDIT:

    Okay thinking about pulling the trigger on some Stantons. Anyone have measurements on a 31 when it's reached a decent amount of stretch?

    They stretch a full inch in the waist for sure.

    Self Edge details:

    15.5oz Sanforized Japanese Selvedge Denim

    Supima Cotton Yarns

    Thick Debossed Leather Patch (Thanos Style)

    Hidden Rivets

    Hidden Coin-Pocket Selvedge

    Straight Leg Fit Above the Knee - Tapered Below the Knee

    This is a jean that we designed in response to requests we were getting on a daily basis for a fit that had room in the upper block but was fairly tapered below the knee. It's a combination of a straight leg jean and a tapered jean for the guy that wants (or needs) room in the upper block but also wants a small leg opening.

    The jean comes in a hefty 15.5oz Japanese selvedge denim made by Japan's famed Kuroki Mill and the jean is cut and sewn in San Francisco.

  4. Anybody any experience of the recent LVC 505 1967 rigid?? The made in Turkey version. Have a pair of the made in USA ones in 34x34 which are several yrs old and a bit tight on the waist. Just ordered 36x34 from Tres Bien and now stressing in case they are going to be huge!! Too good a price to pass up though!

    I have a pair I picked up from the SF store in the fall. i've got a couple months of steady wear on them, and they are just showing some nice wear/creasing/light blue.

    I can't speak to the earlier, made in the US ones, but mine were a little smaller than TTS at the start. I bought tagged 32x34, as the wasit was very snug on me, and i knew it would stretch. Id' say it's about 16.25 now, from 15.5" or so new. I've not soaked them yet, but as they are sanforized, I'm not expecting much change beyond the standard. I do wish I'd gotten them hemmed, as I think I'd prefer them w/ out the cuff, and I realize that even though I'm tall, I only really need a true 32-33" inseam to get the length I like.

  5. I've followed this thread on and off and just went through the last month of posts. When I'm not on my phone ill go and hand out rep like candy because its full of amazing pics, a great vibe and just tons of cool moments.

    If there's another one, perhaps I an be a part of it. Happy New year fellas.

  6. I also found that my Stantons ran a litle bigger than the RT site's measurements all around, though in the hem it was marginal. The waist and thigh had more room than expected. Knee was probbaly pretty close, but as okisan noted you will def get some stretch if it's snug. As long as you don't need more than ~.5" I think you'd be fine.

  8. Yeah I love my 700Js for a fuller cut but I struggle to find the a combination of straight top block/thigh w/ some decent taper from knee (not thigh) down to hem.

    I sort of enjoy the experimentation but its also frustrating in its own way to be sure!

  9. Rolled the dice w/ the 660 cut and lost. Finally learned my lesson. Should anyone be seeking a size 31, I'll be listing them shortly.

    Original hem, one warm soak. Only tried on. $150.

  10. Looks killer.

    Got my 30BSPs too. Def snug in waist relative to tag size but I'm not worried--should stretch well. Kinda wish the taper from knee down was actually a little more pronounced but overall I'm really excited to start wearing them in. Will try to add fit pics...

  11. Not the best pics ever but sharing some evo on the 700Js I have in rotation. Just under 2 calendar years, but they don't get anywhere near aily wear. Hard use for the first 6 months or so, then steady, now a bit less frequent as they are a slightly fuller cut than I like. But they have had some adventures for sure!
