  1. nutusufu, That's interesting, we've been talking to them and they quoted us on various possibilities. I'll be back in touch with them soon and will post an update.

     

    Forgive me if I assumed too much Chuck. I would be jazzed if you are able to acquire more unsanforized cone. I love the way this stuff is fading.

  2. Maynard,

     

    They have not been hemmed. The inseam is about 35" double cuffed, just my personal preference.

     

    I would be extremely surprised if Chuck was able to get custom unsanforized denim from Cone Mills since only LVC and Roy have been able to do so in the past. I have read a second hand account from another US jeans manufacturer claiming that Cone is already running at max capacity for their sanforized denim and they are content with focusing on that.

  3. I got a pair of the Ranger 19 oz unsanforized. That's a hella tough jean. Very well built, with nice details. The fabric is interesting and surprisingly hairy as well. We'll see how the fades progress. I'll update with pics as well.

    I also picked up the Spar Chambray. Very nice grey fabric... Again great details. Clearly very nicely made and the pen pocket is what made me buy it!

    Only downside is... It's to slim for me. If anyone is looking for a slim XL let me know.

     

    Let's get some pics already!

     

    Whats the p2p measurement on that XL chambray?

    Bonus: shots from my trip to my girlf's cabin this past weekend


     


    Luther's Denim offers 3 fits using a really nice 13.5 oz. Unsanforized cone denim. While nowhere near the extremes of some of its Japanese counterparts, the fabric has noticeable slub and hairiness which contradicts the common perception of "boring ol' Cone Mills."


     


    I took Chuck's 2 for 1 deal months ago. I have put a good amount of wear on my '66s, most of which has been documented on my instagram (I'm the only one using #luthersdenim). The '66 is described as a "Tapered leg, Mid-60's Mod Style Fit."


     


    These '55s are my second pair of Luther's and they have a regular fit with a slight taper at the bottom. I am surprised to say that I like these more than the '66s (tapered) despite the fuller cut. They are incredibly roomy and comfortable without looking baggy. I really like the '55s hidden rivets, not present on the '66s. They are already showing significant wear through the back pocket corners after only a few days. Also, it appears that one of the most prominent fades on all of Luther's Denim's current offerings is going to be the train tracking along the outseam.


     


    All in all, I am very happy I went with Luther's and would certainly recommend it as a low cost option for unsanforized denim. In my opinion Luther's Denim offers a unique pair of jeans that is representative of something more than "just another Made in America brand."

  5. Not too often that I see someone wearing quality denim around here, so I had to talk to him about it.

     

    Really? I would think Austin would have a respectable sized denim representation.

     

    Is it mostly just mainstream Levi's?

  6. Wow, lucky snag. I'm really envious of that hoodie. The shirt is def looking grey in that pic. How are you finding these Japanese market items fit? Same as US market Left Field products or smaller?

  7. Wow, I have the 2015 20oz. for little over a year and nowhere near to that level

     

    Hello Future-man. Please tell me who wins the next Wold Series.

     

    20oz. denim in Thailand for 6 months straight without washing does sound like suicide.

     

    On another note, it looks like those stacks were folded by hand. They're too symmetrical. I've seen that before, so I suppose that might be a "thing."
