The Strike Gold

[GoodSamaritan]

How much time does it take to soften up? How tight would you say is the weave?

[k4727]

its a much tighter weave then iron heart of fh 1001s, they soften up quickly but unlike 301s they are stiff without the starch. when you wash them, areas that havent faded will stiffen, but its not relevant because they arent high stress/friction areas

[GoodSamaritan]

Thanks.. Can you post pictures of yours? I'm interested on how theyve progressed

[stingray1381]

In case anyone is interested, I've got a pair like-new SG2109 available for sale in the market:

Strike Gold 2105. Purchased in late March so its been 6 months, but these are weekend jeans. Pics under decent sunlight.

Fit Pic of my Sz 30, SG1103EX Heavy Weight Jean - Straight Leg

which I bought at a great price from cute lil' laxlife1234.

laxlife did not like these and considering that he's a teenage

boy, I can understand why -- my nephews who are around lax's age

wouldn't like them either. But I love them. These are

BAR NONE my favorite fitting jeans. Seems like

non-teenagers should fall in love with the fit of these (they

are definitely high-waisted) but it must be that they

didn't sell too well, as Kiya sold them off dirt

cheap in a fire sale (less than half price ?) not too

long ago. I don't understand...these are heavy, thick,

every bit a contender with Samurai and IH...they

are gorgeous, top quality and very flattering jeans.

I'm kinda sad that they're not coming back to SESF.

I wanted to buy another pair during Kiya's sale

but just could not afford...

^honestly, i think we´ve seen wayy better fits on you. these look like bell bottoms on you... sry, just my 1 cent.

[wgmds]

we're gonna be matching soon! hopefully i wont look too goofy as a 19 year old myself, but I'm planning on wearing engineer boots with them pretty much all of the time.

i hope they'll look good on me, chances are that my chicken legs will make em look dumb.

No problem dude ! Opinions are always welcome. Yeah, they're

definitely bell-bottoms on me but let me remind you...I LOVE DISCO

music ! Saturday Night Fever is one of my all time fave movies !

I'm old as fuck...it's kind of a generational preference.

[shubharamani]

And a.khan, I really like those on you ! It's cool that

though you're just a teenage boy, you beat to your own drum.

Those SG1103EX are really flattering on you. They don't sag

down like most teenage boys like to wear their pants

(laxlife's IH 666 are sorta saggy but they still

look adorable on him).

[k4727]

those are 1103 standards (direct from strike gold, not EXs) they are my warm weather jeans.

[Noodle36]

Shub - I'm with you 100% on the fit of the heavy weights. Enough room to move around and do things in them. It bugs me when i bend over and half my ass falls out. I flirted for awhile with some of the trendier cuts but I keep going back to just plain OG straight cuts. If you like these you should try the MF lot 54 Cali's.

SG 1105´S about 5 1/2 months effective wear

2 soaks, 1 wash

[wgmds]

i'm soaking my 1103ex tomorrow and wearing them saturday (hopefully). i'll post soon. size 30 as well.

[kiya]

Just started on a pair of 2105's... my 1105's are getting repaired after 13 months (and 4 washes).

[wgmds]

is the 2 serious similar to the one, but with slightly heavier denim and heavy duty stitching or something? also, post picks to the 05s worn in, a cool cut with some nice denim.

Are the 2105's ever to reappear for the masses?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

think so...klax-on has full stock on 'em

[kiya]

Yup, next week!

Yup, you'd be a 32 in all Strike Gold jeans too, they run true to size.

[emirarrr]

^^ whoaa kiya for the response, one more question, wich one is bigger, imperial duke or 2105?

[kiya]

They're close in cut actually, the main difference is the 2105 has a lower rise.

[emirarrr]

okay got it, thx kiya

[wgmds]

i've worn my 1103 ex about 3 times now, and i love them. they look pretty goofy on me, but i still fucking love the pants. i'll post pics eventually. awesome pants for anybody who is on the fence. the denim nearly looks purple because of how deep the indigo is!

[stereo345]

Not enough fit pics in this thread.

Thought I post some fit pics of my 1105. 8 Months, 2 soaks 3 washes

[Layne]

[ajchen]
