I've had the 14.5 oz Slackers since January and I absolutely love them. A big step up from my Grifter #001's (although I really liked the heavier pocket bags on the old grifters).

I've probably only worn them 50% the time, but they are getting some nice fades. Well, as nice as they can be when I have to sit behind a desk and code all day.

As for fitting, i had 36's in the grifters, and they have definitely stretched a good bit. I can't wear them without a belt. I sized down to 35's for the slackers and now that they've stretched out a bit, they fit like a glove. perfect in the waist and a bit slimmer in the leg.

I'll post some pics sooner or later. I still wear those grifters a good bit as well.

Just saw the news about earthquake. I hope everything is OK for you, Ande!

Does the NY store do repairs? And if they do, will they do repairs on jeans that were not purchased at SE?

I have a pair of Ande Whall's that have a looming crotch blowout, plus a few other holes, that I would like to have fixed, and I'm not sure I trust anyone else to do it.

I've lurked here for a long time, but never posted till now. I have sufu to thank for my discovery of Ande's amazing jeans. Anyways, I just ordered a new pair of slackers, so I figured I should post a pic of my old grifter 001's.

I bought these in june or july of 2008. Two soaks, and some other mystery cleaning event that unfortunately occurred when I took them in to be patched up. These have been my favorite pair of jeans, and despite an impending crotch rip, they still have a lot of life left in them.
