Preface I’m 5’7” 135 / wear a small
So, I've wanted a pair of dry skin cropped pants for summer and this checked the boxes. Was never quite able to track down 17ds' so this was the next best thing. These are a more straight cut, wider version of the 17s instead of tapered as someone else had pointed out. I feel like they’re a bit shorter, fall mid shin instead of at the ankle.
Belt system feels sturdier than my older p23ts ch’s. No buckle system implemented like the 25s etc. These have been global updates on all new pants, but the belt loop (namely the first one where the closure is) is now properly wide to accommodate thicker buckles. Both the outer and inner phone pockets now can easily fit a + sized iphone width wise, but will stick out the top a bit.
They’re flow-y, super comfy and breezy exactly what I was looking for. The range of motion you get is akin to wearing a pair of shorts so you can bend and sit without restriction. I prefer DS on flow-y type pants over a stiffer/ less stretch stotz especially for hotter months.
Other than that they're a no frill pant, deep front pockets, 2 back pockets and that’s really it. Standard long drop crotch without the diaper bunching. Can’t comment on ds weight vs other pants but feels decently thick prob same as 23ads etc.
I’ll try and get a side by side with some p17s another time.

Big T (Tilore) which version did you display again?
Bit late but yea these ones are the exact same fabric make up as the converts, the other leisure pant is more of a sweat pant.

My first kind of "techwear" pants, are these considered tech pants?
Also, I'm usually a size 29/30 for jeans etc, and the webshop I got them from only had a 46, did I size it right?
Yea 46 should be perfect and maybe lowkey tech? Think it depends more on how you style them with other pieces.
On 11/26/2017 at 6:36 AM, AvantSol said:I got my pair of the articulated pants as well, my first shadow project piece and I love it! I decided to size up per this board and End recommended sizing up, although if I'm being totally honest I might have preferred going tts because they are a little long on me if I don't use the tabs. When pulling the tab to the 9th slit(maybe the max) you get a nice stacking look with tapered calves, but you get the back of the cuffs popping out a bit which may or may not be appealing to certain folks.
Yea normally they're a bit long like converts so I'll cuff twice which I think is fine. Going tts these fit tighter in the waist so I still think you made the right decision.

Damn you Tilore! I’m sold and just copped a pair after reading this!! Don’t know if I’m happy or angry.
Haha let me know how you end up liking them, I'll probably grab them end of season still too for a less weighty / dressy option over the converts

@Tilore With the Jungle Boots, did you get a sense of how they might hold up and function in a Toronto winter?
Haha I’m also interested in this and got them for that purpose soooo will be back with an updated review? Seemed sturdy enough with a rugged outsole not always a fan of a suede / nubuck upper for winter but they’re gonna get beat regardless

Just got mine, ordered a 44 2/3 and I'd say they fit tts. I'm usually a 10.5/44.5 in Nike.
Tried them on today and I'd say personally .5 down. Usually wear size 9 in most.
Tried a 42 2/3 (9) and a 41 1/3 (8),
42 (8.5) is perfect.
Just watch how some sites are labelling the US/Euro sizing.

Black dyed pair was retailing for just under 600 at the BBS store in NY with the all black, black/white were about $50 cheaper?
Ssense had them for around $650 US.

Does anyone own the pants with the articulation tunnels? What are your thoughts? I'm curious as to how the mechanism alters the fit, from pictures I imagine it brings the back up for a more tapered/cropped look from the front.
Since some people were curious...
So these pants fit a bit tighter than the converts at the waist. I tried a 44 on and they do fit snug on the waist and would potentially consider sizing to a 46 but still wearable.
They have a lighter feel and a clean look when not using the articulation - just a plain black straight fit dress pant.
Normal 4 pocket setup 2 front / 2 back with the right side having that diagonal zip/patch that most sp pants have.
So the articulation works by pulling a stretchy strap at the back of the knee and using a button to fasten. There are multiple slits (5?) so you can cinch them more/ less.
When cinched to the tightest loop, it gives a p10 type look with a slim calf and bunched material around the knee. Although it looks good, walking around is awkward as the material pulls at the back. So I wouldn't recommend cinching it all the way maybe 1 or 2 less.
The tab also flops around when all the way cinched.

Left is no articulation / Right is tightest

Bamba appreciation / sizing post
My friends and I love em and I have to say shoe of the year to be honest.
Crazy comfy for walking around all day / sadly not exactly waterproof however due to just open mesh panels smh.
I wear a 9 in most things and got a 9 in these so would say tts from my experience.
You can remove the laces for easy on off losing a bit of stability.
The dyed pairs are by fare my favourite especially the black and white distressed pairs.
Getting harder to track down now - I was able to find mine at BBS on a trip in NY not too long ago and my other friend got them at Ink in HK.

Was looking forward to the convert pants this season and just wanted to share sizing advice and thoughts.
I got a 44 (I'm 5'7" 135lbs usually wear a 28/30) and had the zip shorts from this s/s in a 44 as well.
Waist fits great with some room still and pants are extremely cozy with a slight drop crotch and extra room in the seat/leg area.
I would say they are slimmer than the zip cargos from s/s.
I didn't feel the need to get them tailored at all. I drape them over boots or just roll them twice when wearing low tops.
I like the zip pocket on the patch side which has a phone pocket behind it which I use quite a bit.
The 2 smaller pockets on the other leg don't see as much use / I'll usually zip the flap up. I do like however sliding my point and shoot down that leg where you store the flap.
Other than feeling like a cowboy with the flaps and zips clinking around big fan / great fit / very comfy / versatile going from cargo to more dressed down look.
Only gripe is the normal pockets at the waist can be a bit difficult to access with all the zippers brushing up against your hand.
Zip shirt from this season is also really nice with the ds like sleeves and more zips.
If you are looking for black which has been somewhat hard to track down for whatever reason - capsule has some sizes here in toronto

Can someone explain the function of the collar ridge on the J1A GT? Do you wear it folded up or down? Is it just cut to accommodate something around your neck? Thanks!

It actually does accommodate one. It’s not the most comfortable thing to wear for long periods of time and I wouldn’t do it daily, but it can be done.
