Boncoura

[cmo]

Thanks man... Need a 34 but the inseam may be too short for me!!

[Jambon]

Ed the Boncoura denim looks really nice, need a pair at some point. Either the 66 or the XX.

Also does Signet sell the 41 chino from Boncoura? They look really nice. Trying to track a pair down.

 

 

These guys stock the 41 chino and if your in the usa they should work out ok with the current weak pound against the dollar.

Thanks Jambon, sadly they don't seem to carry the 41 chinos in size 36.

Might reach out to them and see if they would be willing to order them for me.

Think I might want to get a pair of the XX jeans first though if I can track them down!

[mikecch]

 

I think the 66 fits me OK.

Maybe the inseam is a little short...not too bad with boots.

[Frost]

Looks good man, but to be honest I didn't even notice the jeans at first, I was too busy admiring all the leather...

[Aries]

Perfect fit imo Mike.

[edmond]

My xx shrank a quarter of an inch all over after its first wash fuck wish i got a 36

Random-ish question but how's the size of the front pockets? Bigger than Warehouse? How about compared to Fullcount or Samurai? And do any stores (other than Drakes and Alphashadows since they're both sold out) sell a sz 36?

The front pockets are not notably large or small. Definitely deeper than the short-pocketed brands like Full Count or Momotaro pockets, and big enough to accommodate an iPhone 6 in my size 32 pair with full range of motion. The jeans do seem well-cut to allow easy access to the pockets, too.

 

Have not found any other western stores aside from Drake's and Alpha Shadows that sell them, only a few Japanese stores with websites of various levels of usability.

We do inordered aome 36 already

That's good to hear! I am getting kind of annoyed with my Warehouses since my Nexus 5x pretty much deosn't fit in the front pocket.

 

And yeah, I went to all the shops that stock Boncoura (according to their website) and they all don't have above a sz 34. Its seems only the two British stores do (but are currently sold out). But Alpha Shadows did say they are getting a re-stock soon so that's good!

Good to hear! It seems only stores outside Japan stock a 36... Makes me feel even fatter haha.

[kiya]

Fear not ya'll.. longer inseams are coming.

Subtle hint at something?

You know it.

[Broark]

Nice! I'll keep my eyes peeled. That's really exciting.

Need a pair of those XX's with a longer inseam.

[d-rew12]

Shit, I actually like the short inseam! Saves me from having to get them hemmed!

They're not going to stop producing the shorter inseam versions.

Wasn't implying that, just saying I love the short inseams haha. 

[itsbenhere]

You know it.

 

 

Do you think SDA and Boncoura still represent the goofy american love you founded the store on? Or are you mainly just concerned with quality at this point?

With SDA i'm sure it explains itself, that brand is as goofy as it gets. 

For Boncoura i believe it's a good balance between perfect simplicity and great focused quality. 

They're very different brands, SDA is everything while Boncoura is one very good thing.

[edmond]

Good choice of brand kiya. Thats why i call you the pakistanichainstitcher your the best

[Jambon]

Arrggh     only had them a couple of months. Got an appointment tomorrow with someone who can hopefully fix them. Fingers crossed. If anyone has any other recommendations for repairs in London or UK let me know.
