Post your DUCKS!

Hm, well they're clearly a bit oversized. I didn't bring a measuring tape into the dressing room with me, but I'm generally a pretty standard 30, and I'd be a 29 or maybe even 28 in these. They seem to be kind of carrot-shaped - a lot of room up top compared to the leg-opening. An exaggerated 501 profile?

cross posted from the waywt thread,

these are carhartt's "re-worked" by urban outfitters? I know...but I managed to scoop myself 3 pairs of these beauties for $15.00 each during some wild sale they were having. Typical carhartt materials and construction but slimmed down a bit, fitting similar to the ropers but with no buckle back and no selvedge. They do have the carpenter accents tho, and for $15 I really didn't give a shit what they fit like.

Garden variety grab-n-go arctic jacket. When new, the only thing that set it apart was that I sized it correctly. Carharrt is way off base with this. No wonder little dudes look so dumpy in them. I'm a 46-48 and I have to do a 40 in their sizing to get a fit.

This is its third winter and it will need a handwash this year.

Looks like Blue In Green got their annual shipment of Oni products, including these:

Oni Denim OX Canvas Jeans

No pics at BIG yet, but a little Google fu shows them looking like this:

Thought folks around here might want to check them out. Oni stuff is seriously low volume, so I don't expect these to last super long.

Nothing fancy in terms of selvedge or rare fabric, but they are very well made and durable as hell. Basically an overbuilt Carhartt. First is a detail of the buttons and fabric. second is an awful iPhone pic that just shows the design. Go here for better quality/stock photo's.
