I have the 1001 in Banner Denim (~13.5oz) and the 800 in 14.5oz denim, both size 36 and purchased unsanforized. Pre-soak waist measurements were around 37” using the BiG method. Both pairs measured ~34.5” after a hot soak and cold machine wash, so roughly 2”-2.5” of shrink at the waist. Both stretch back to tag size/36”, the Banner Denim easily, the 14.5oz denim with a bit of difficulty, about a week’s worth of uncomfortable wear. Keep an eye on the inseam length measurement, too. I got 2.5”-3” of inseam shrink with soak/wash routine mentioned above.

I was curious to see how quickly the OA01xx 0522 would sell out. The jeans showed up online at 9:01am for me and all sizes were available. I checked out the size 38, but didn't buy since I have a pair in the xx2 denim. By 9:02am the 3 largest sizes were sold out. These puppies went fast! For what it's worth, the pair I purchased years ago had been returned to S&S a couple weeks after an Ooe drop. Keep an eye on their site starting in a week or so to monitor for returned stock. Alternatively, someone inevitably fucks up sizing with these jeans, so check the SuFu and Reddit "for sale" threads and Grailed over the next few weeks.

To those about to cop (weeee saaaaluuuute yoouuuu!), may your internet connection be strong and your click finger swift.

@DC2020 Fantastic fit. Looks like you'll be alright with additional inseam shrink, too. Great looking jeans.

Great pickup, @DC2020! The 14.5oz Memphis denim is my fave of the Warehouse offerings. I have a pair of the 800 in the same denim. The inseam shrunk a little over 3" on that pair - from 35" to around 31.5" after an initial hot soak, a warm wash in the wash machine, and multiple cold wash/hang dry cycles. My guess is your pair will end up with a 31" inseam over time, give or take a half inch or so.

My experience with OA jeans has been a different. I've had the 01 and 02 cuts in the XX2 and XX3 denim and none of my pairs stretched back to raw measurements at the waist. All shrank from tag size and settled 1"-2" below tag size at the waist after multiple washes (including an initial hot machine wash) and hang dry. I've always sized up 2 and this has worked well. Could be different for the new denim, I suppose.

@JohnM Standard and Strange carries the Warehouse Lot 1001xx jeans in 14.5oz Memphis denim (https://standardandstrange.com/collections/warehouse/products/lot-1001xx-14-5-oz-memphis-denim). I did not pull the trigger. I think that 34" raw inseam would shrink too much to work for my frame.

Same here. I have a size 36 that shrinks to just under 34" at the waist with each wash. The waist stretches back out, eventually, but it is a long and painful 10-14 days before they are comfortable again.

I'll be in LA next week, so I may stop by SELA and see if sizing up will accommodate my hobbit feet. Stoked about potentially going from 6'1" to 6'3". Digging the fine-striped Merz shirts, too.

Don't forget Isaiah Thomas, Kevin McHale, Mark Aguirre, etc. I'd be all over those kicks if my feet weren't so damn wide.

In a perfect world this post would win the day. Thank you for sharing. Such a cool story. Legendary band. RIP Bass Wolf.

Definitely check with retailers. Size 44 is often an XL for Warehouse sweatshirts, while 42 is an XL for their t-shirts. As others have noted, the sweatshirts shrink and stretch a fair amount. I'm a size 42 in Warehouse shirts, but size up to 44 in their sweatshirts for a typical fit.

Is that the McCoy's wool pile jacket? Looks great! You might have to change your name to NotSocheapmuthafukr, though.
