Ande Whall Denim

[poly800rock]

still haven't gotten them, it was a really tight window before I left for Vietnam, and am there now, probably shoot him an email in a few days to tell him to send them over. pretty excited for another pair of whalls.

[kidkorea]

beatle are those blacks or indigo's?

[mr.invincible]

damn thats a good fit beatle

[JSFU]

i was thinking of getting the grifters and i was thinking if i should size down one. not worried about the stretching rather about the thighs. my thighs are only 22 but the ones on the 34 grifters are 24.something!

[beatle]

indigo..

went for the soak while wearing method - and hell - those fit like a second skin....gonna be perfect in 2 days

[kino]

nice fit beatle!

[opethrapture]

Good fit on the Whall's Beatle

[TLCA]

JSFU I wouldn't recommend sizing down one the thighs are really tight I'd go true to size or size up and I can't believe selfedge is gunna carry ande whall

[andreweezer]

I wouldn't rec. sizing down one, most people get the usual or size up. I wouldn't have been able to size down one.

[mr.invincible]

how does AW denim feel like? its not as soft as Nudies right when it touches water, right?

[big truck]

waiting for the old miner fit to come through. looking good beatle.

[a2nadam]

looking for a cut that's roomy and loose in the top block while remaining slim on the way down.

thinking of upsizing on some rakers, i wanna be able to sag them a good bit.

waist is a 32" but my ass is quite large and my thighs are also quite big. thinking about picking up some in the XX denim in a 34 so after stretching they'll be about a 34.5 in the waist while staying slim through the leg. good idea?

edit: i realize this is the opposite of how rakers are supposed to fit, but i love the denim that ande uses

[TLCA]

a2nadam, from the way you describe ur fit rakers would not be the way to go if I were you I'd go with slackers which are similar fit to the grifters with a lower yoke which are good for sagging and they are somewhat tight on the lower legs I've had rakers and grifters and they run tight on thr thighs so either go with grifters or slackers because raker are tight as hell.

[a2nadam]

by ande's measurements i think i should be alright with the thigh, the unstretched thigh as is already bigger than my current pair of jeans, which fit me pretty well.

i'll take a look at the slacker cut though, i do like the lower yoke

[TLCA]

ya or consider the grifter thats what im wearing now and i really like them. I thought the rakers would fit okay when I ordered them but they were too tight maybe they'll work for you though the only problem I have with the grifters is that I wish the hem was a bit smaller. Also I just realized that since selfedge is carrying ande whall they might come out with a collab jeans which would be sick

[andewhall]

Hey guys, haven't updating that much. Slackers are basically the same as Grifters, just the rise on Slackers is 1/2" longer and tad roomier in the back. If you got more in the trunk, slackers can be worn to look like well fitted Grifters or if you are a slim cat, can be sagged without showing all that crack pipe...or super sagged.

[andewhall]

Nice fit Beat's.

To answer one frequently asked questions about the BK model, the wings back pocket stitching is still there, it's in black thread...will come alive in 6 months or so. The whole stitching style is the same, but all black and rivets are tin finish to match the buttons.

[TLCA]

soo ande now that selfedge is stocking AWs is there or will there be a selfedge ande whall collaboration?

[poly800rock]

soo ande now that selfedge is stocking AWs is there or will there be a selfedge ande whall collaboration?

to produce what, a tighter jean?

[TLCA]

Well I don't think it gets tighter than rakers but I thought it would be cool to see a collaboration

[dawei69]

collabs are made for hypebeasts.... personally dont like them, plus the SE collabs are saturated with slim cuts (so everyone can pretend they r in a band -including myself).... Ande have reached perfection already!

Unless u wanna over do it, and make a SEXAW09 (selfedge line on everypocket, every single rivet hidden, 17.5cm dior cut, handloom okayama denim with indigo from sea snails)

[TLCA]

haha ya I get what ur saying ande has every cut covered to perfection. I think I wanna go with slackers for my next pair or maybe those sick black grifters, I'm curious to see how they turn out with some good wear.

[poly800rock]

just got my grifter STF. oh my, beats i'm with you, don't know how these will fit in the long run, but they're in the soak warm water now.

pre-soak 31" waist, 32.5" length.

this should be tight as fuck, but should stretch out nicely.

pics to come. uploading now.

nice package this morning.

horray!

old vs new

new fit (which is the same as the old fit, hopefully stretch out.)

[poly800rock]

[fur]

^awesome stuff poly

[Raoul Duke]

poly, half the pictures aren't working for me. Any chance you can take some detail shots of the denim? I've been thinking of picking up a pair of the STF for a while, but I wanted to know what the texture of the denim is like.
