@MJF9, that's when it becomes a warmer day t-shirt only jacket. Looks great!

The Indigo Invitational never let them go. They reward heavy stacking and apparently sanding...

Nothing much to show on my end. These are nights and weekends only so not much heavy wear. I really like the fit and fabric though. The way I oversized them has left me with a lot of room in the hip and seat making for very comfortable cycle commuting, but being a true '50s cut they are still pretty straight through the hip which I like. I'm going longer between washes right now because of the light wear. I haven't washed at all since the start and likely won't until late March or April. We'll see how that changes as the weather warms up and it gets into motorcycle season.

On my way to London for work and the crotch set off the TSA Pre and full-body scanners...

Plugging along through a very cold New York winter. Not the lighting to show any denim progress, though there also really isn't much to report as these are off-hours only. But overall loving the fit and feel. It never feels like a chore to reach for these in the morning getting dressed and they've styled well into everything I've tried with them.

Pretty sure 19 is a Tommy Guerrero album. Don't know the title. 4 is Digable Planets, but again I'm terrible with album titles.

Apologies, I was not meaning to say that size to size they should be the same (30 in both are not the same measured size necessarily), just that the proportions for the true size are intended to be the same. It's the same pattern. That being said, I don't even know for sure what sizes I have. I think I have 13.7oz in 31 and SS in 32? Again, when you're playing a game of 1cm here or there on a measuring tape, you're playing to satisfy your own neurosis, not a distinguishable fit difference at five feet. I am not intending to devalue your desire to know those things and satisfy yourself, but the net result after three minutes of wear is nothing to anyone but you when discussing a completely wide legged relaxed fit. If you're wearing Iron Heart 666's, that 1 cm could mean the difference between maintaining an ability to continue your bloodline or not.

@indigoeagle, they're not meant to be. I notice no significant difference between them. You can literally measure the same cloth garment five times and come up with a variance of 1cm. Don't overthink it.

I have to say, loving these jeans so far. Sized it just right. There's plenty of room in the hips without dipping under the belt too badly. Stock room casual this morning doing grunt work.

Just groceries and the dentist today, but it's damn cold out. Oh, and the chainstitch settings are wild. The hems are taught and twisted after a single wash unlike anything I've ever experienced. Iron Heart/Mister Freedom/SDA/Tanner/WoM/Chippewa

@aho, sort of, but different? The 0105 is decisively anti-fit, but doesn't pose this seat fit issue (TTS or +1 in my experience). I also notice the fit issue on these with a tight waist. The anti-fit would apply in my case as they're deliberately oversized, but to have that fit issue on tighter fits seems odd. Again, not trying to sew seeds of dissatisfaction here at all. I am mainly responding to bF's request for impressions of the jeans as the brand is completely new to all of us here. What are your thoughts on the fits you're seeing?

No, it's kind of the opposite. Something like where the bottom third of the pocket down to just below, the pattern doesn't remove enough fabric from the seat between the pocket and back rise seam if that makes sense. I am not a pattern maker, so the solution is above my paygrade. I just noticed it's a bit unflattering between the pockets and below on the seat for quite a few of us. Thankfully not hungry bum though. Well, I don't think I've seen bF's back shots yet...

They shrank perfectly. -3" in the waist to a 32" waist. Leg opening came down to 8.5" from 9". There's a bit of a pattern issue in the seat shape and pockets as I've seen in others' photos as well as my fit, but nothing that ruins the fit. Just a little pattern issue that could be addressed going forward with WoM. Edit: pocket bags are also ~1" too shallow for my liking. Again, small issue, but worth noting.

This fabric definitely feels a little thinner between the fingers than your banner denims in upper 13oz to 14oz range. It's a bit smoother than maybe I had expected. Still has good texture, but a fairly even and consistent hand. No real hairiness raw, though some of the post wash/soak pics look like that opens up a bit with water. I always wash with softener so we'll see how they feel and look out of a wash and tumble in about an hour.
