moar pics of the lot 001? curious about them and what make them more expensive than the rest.

[SLAB]

interested in the MP9100; hit me up with asking price

[ah_long]

Icarium snatched the MP9147 already.. I'll let the new owner post more pics..

Before I packed them up, I just realized they stitched a union label inside the right back pocket, really neat detail.

Joe McCoy picked up and hemmed at BiG last Saturday. Six days of wear in. Went TTS at 32w. The denim is amazing. Soft and pliable, and starting to really show some roping texture in the weave. They;re gonna be fast faders too. Blue hands all the time.

Two initial washes and machine dries. Surprisingly, the inseam didn't shrink close to the 2.5" expected. Fit is very close to my favorite fit - the Momotaro 0701, though it's also similar to the SDA 103 and Strike Gold slim fit.

Edit: post-wash/dry and one-week wear dims on these (BiG style):

w: ~34

R: 10.25

Th: 12

Kn: 8.75

L.o: 8.25

Inseam should have been 30 post-soak. Is now 31. These don't shrink 2.5" in the inseam (accounting for stretch) as I was recommended. Maybe allow for 2" inseam shrink.

I would recommend downsizing 1 on these, though TTS will give you a more classic 501 '47/'66 fit. That said, considering the lower rise on these when sizing the waist, allowing an extra inch seems to be the design intent.

looking nice! I'm eyeing the 906 too. you really went TTS? from the charts on BiG I would downsize at least 1.

I ended up letting go of the TTS pair. I'll be getting the next size down when I can. Definitely size down on these.

^damn, would've hoped to see some evo...Gordon once suggested that a 906 contest would be good, would've liked to have seen that too...

[onehundy]

Someone should arrange a 906 contest, I'd be down.

^I tried and failed when the Samurai contest was falling through...Not enough interest because the brand doesn't get too much press on here/in general but the products are top notch.

EDIT: I'd be down to organize around 2012 once the Eternal contest is winding down...That is of course, if the world still exists?!?

coleslaw, what ever happened to your pair?

[coleslawyum]

Still got them! Not much evo though, these jeans are tough!

If in fact we are all living in 2012, and when the heavyweight contest ends, I may want to get in on this contest.

Edit: But for now, I don't think there should be anymore mentioning of contests, cause I think people will want to jumpstart one then..

[k4727]

yea, i may be in as well

[pepper davies]

I'd be in for a contest.

Edit: McCoy jeans and boots contest?

[SLAB]

i was in back then and i'm in now so ill be down in 2012 as well (unless doomsayers have it right)

[HAZARDkid]

im debating between getting either and szing down 1

[jfurt]

Damn that jacket is sharp. I just picked up the wabash work shirt and am very eagerly awaiting the arrival of that gem. First Joe McCoy piece for me.

[tchengaa]

how small in the waist can a pair of 905 stretch to
