I wish! Never got anything recovered. Bought some Ironheart and the ONI collab since then.

Thanks you for your quick reply but I already checked Van Lieblings website and they only have one WG in 33 in stock.

I want to try 31. cultizm is an option but I don't like the fact to order something just to try it on, thats not fair against the team.

Maybe I will try crämer & co and buy something else for purpose if there is no other way.

 

Crämer & Co is great. My favourite shop in Nürnberg. Why don't you just measure a well fitting jeans and compare it to the weird guys?

[fromthisplaceinhell]

I got the NFXONI weird guy and found them to be sized as normal WG meaning the sizing doesn't account for the shrinkage. A size 30 normal  sanforized WG measures the same as the unsanforized NFXONI. I thought I may never be able to wash/soak but they have now Stretched a size past original size so I may get away with a cold wash/soak when the time comes. 

However(!) you do have to consider the inseam and rise. The leg is a 34. your going to lose an inch even on a cold soak so if your normal inseams over a 32 your in trouble  and the rise is tiny and it ain't going to get any bigger with wear!

 

Thank you. I really appreciate any help. To cut it down your Onis stretched back out after soaking to pre-soak measurements (and oven more), is that right?

 

I forgot to mention that the short inseam isn't a problem. I also thought the rise could be a problem but the Onis have almost the same as the LHT super skinny guys which I tried on and they were comfortable.

My only problem is, that I probably can't return them..

I haven't soaked yet! They were that tight I have wore them till they stretched past original measurements and will cold soak whilst wearing eventually.

[Geeman]

Admittedly not ideal but as Evan at T&Y did me a great deal on them to help me out after I was burgled I thought I may as well just try it as opposed to shipping to and from Canada again!

[fromthisplaceinhell]

Yes, that sounds good as well.
I'll probably give them a go, I just gotta talk to the shop about the price.

Thank you again!

anyone have experience with the Elephant 3s? haven't really followed this thread, though i have looked at how to size WG elephant 2s -- vanity sized 2inches. Was wondering, how much do they (Elephant 3) stretch with wear if anyone's had experience. Don't wanna end up with an extra inch or 2 in the waist. (aka APC - though i have mucho experience w/ those)

The E3's is A much looser weave than the E2's. therefor it will move with your body a lot better. Expect 1" waist .5" thigh. They will move but not anything like your APCs

Here is a peek of that denim I was talking about. This one is something else. N&F Hand Dyed Weft. they literally dyed the yarn by hand, 3 inches at a time. Only 175 pairs made, will be online later this week!

It is an overcast day, but still bright..  Figured I'd take some pics of my N&F Greencast I picked up June 2012.  One soft wash at 1 month, threw em in the washer at 3 months, and then washed them pretty regularly from there on.  You'll see in the pics they are beginning to fall apart but I am still holding onto them and plan on making the necessary fixes.  I believe the new N&F Royalcast is the second version of this denim.

 

Here they are at around one month, no wash:

Those are Spring/Summer 2014 I believe. N&F usually comes a little early though. No set delivery date at this time

Canadian factories had a 5 week hiatus. that's why the last of the fall collection has been lagging. 

We got a shipment that left last Thursday, should arrive in store at the end of the week/ over the weekend.

Thats good to hear. 5 weeks is a pretty long break. What was the occasion?

[fromthisplaceinhell]

I contacted Le Bel Homme and they told me they'd receive the new collection within the next week. Hopefully the Okayama Spirit can compete with the Oni Collabo/Japan Heritage..

[sr-rulez]

I can't decide if I prefer the JH oder Ele3. What do you guys think about this?

[PhillyFresh]

Where can I find the Regular Guy denim in indigo? Tate and Yoko is out of stock and from the email i got back, it doesnt look like they'll be getting anymore in my size.

 

Is this cut even still made? I dont see it anywhere else, and none of their other cuts seems to be the same.

 

thanks

Broken Twill, 1 year of wear.

[lamscott]

Elephant 2 22oz.
 
The inside stitching of the leg looks to be opposite and not uniform. Is this weird to anyone else?

Those broken twill are fantastic. I love those stack fades.

[MikeS]

Question for anyone with the 32oz Beasts. Since these are only 34.5 inseem to begin with, what was the post soak length on these guys? I really want a pair but I need atleast a 33'' inseam. I have a feeling these get smaller then 1.5'' in the inseam after a few soaks. Any help would be great. Thanks!

[Xstan]

MikeS , it is a good pair of jeans.  My suggestion you  need to size up 1 for comfort wear.  It will shrink a little.  About the inseam I am not sure because I am not tall.
