yeah i agree with the labeling.

i think from a typography standpoint,

the letters are too "techy" for the brand.

i almost like the westerny feel of the hand drawn logo that you have more.

but either way, the jeans look superb.

seems like its a bit easier to sew dry denim, rather than soft cloth,

since the dry denim resembles working with the chip board.

grimey retarded

lol. Well, looks like I'm not the only person doing bespoke jeans. Yours look great though, seriously. I've just completed only my about fourth pair of jeans, so I'm not nearly at your level of expertise.

My only question is... where the heck do you get your rivets? I'm going crazy trying to find rivets that will work for jeans and it seems like they're just increasingly hard to get my hands on.

With that, I'll post a picture of my first pair of custom jeans...

here you go... you fergot the img tags.

[Heartworm]

Andewhall and Thorns, have you just made the cuts from scratch or is it possible to get some standard patterns from somewhere?

[Thorns]

I have no idea where you'd go for patterns, I made them right from scratch.

I've been cutting up and altering jeans for years, so I had a good idea of the shapes I wanted from the denim and I just sort of 'guess and check'ed my way through it.

I like the small eagle embroidery on the right back pocket of one of the pairs.

have you ever though about doing just that on the backpocket (no other stitching)

Its nothing to fancy, yet something unique.

I was about to say the same thing. Maybe offer custom colored embroidery for the eagle. The only possible problem is American Eagle Outfitters has an eagle even though it's in a different stance.

I agree, that's pretty tight.

[Heartworm]

Thanks. Where do you guys get the denim for these jeans?

the pic you just posted of the grifters looks tighter than the pic on the first page. those are for sure grifters on the first page pic? i like the way those fit better than the pic on this page.

The grifters on the second page sure do look great in terms of fit - just an opinion, but your work is amazing. I hope your contracting thing works out, so that you can focus on design and all that! I thought your checked pockets were very funny, it's great having something like that inside your pants, somehow it's very cheeky without being a nuisance. I'd feel really happy all day if i had pockets like that. Sad but true. (:

I think i might just be over the moon all day with those. What're your prices like for customised or plain back pockets? (As well as those with the boppy inner linings)

[johninger]

nice work andewhall, i always like to see people do things with pride and excellence

Well excuse me! Excuse me...
