Duffer Klondike selvedge cinch back - Swap?

[ally fu]

These are my latest purchase, Duffer Klondike selvedge cinch back jeans. I'm really loving the details on them, however I was really after something a bit slimmer and with a lower rise. I've decided not to wear them for a bit and see if I can maybe swap them for something closer to what I'm after.

If you like these and fancy a swapsie get in touch ...

Here's the spec on them (copied and pasted, not my words!)

Duffer Of St. George is a London boutique that sells a lot of cool things, they’re massive denim fans and have a range that caters for the real connoisseur – you’ll find early Japanese Evis, Rag & Bone, Atelier LaDurance and a few pairs from the in-house label.

This model, Klondike was released late last year and are a cinch back selvedge model. The fit is somewhere between fitted and loose, you could call it a relaxed fit that features a gently tapering leg. The jeans seem to be inspired by Evisu (two tone colour threads) & Lee (half lined pockets) – overall the attention to details is high and the selvedge denim used is maybe 11-12oz and is quite heavily starched so they’re rigid. The selvedge seam is pink-line which makes a unique change from the usual red, green or yellow!

Other details are a slubby effect to the denim, a 6th pocket, hidden on the inside above the left front pocket, branded copper rivets and buttons that have been deliberately oxidised to give off a Statue Of Liberty like hue, a beautifully soft and supple 1mm thick tanned rear leather patch, double felled internal seams, hidden rear pocket rivets and of course a double chainstiched hem.
