I wish you hadn't said that

[madmonday]

agree more like the annies.

[elclintor]

How so? Fading properties or feel?

Please elaborate…

[madmonday]

on both counts.

19oz has a heavy rigid thick feel like the SR denim
not slubby, not a ton of stretch
prob not quite the high contrast fade of the SR though, that denim is pretty amazing

@dave:

Is the denim more similar to the SR or the BB/666 raw?

The denim actually to me feels like a lighter weight version of the SR (anniversary) denim.  Similar feel and indigo shade.

I never should have asked… Monday is my birthday so Saturday will strongly test my will power

This makes them sound even better.  My willpower is essentially nonexistent at this point.

So, who nutted up?

[jacoavlu]

I passed. Waiting for this denim (non-OD) in 301 cut.

[elclintor]

^^ is that in the works? Or just wishful thinking…

[kit99bar]

+1 on this cut being perfect.  too many jeans now though

Not in the works, but more than wishful thinking. Won't be soon.

If I hadn't just bought the 666 XHS and there wasn't a 634 RAW coming in NOV-ish, I would have bought them in a heartbeat.  I feel like these will be too close to the 634 measurements, and weight isn't an issue since I easily wear my SRs in 100 degree weather.

I tried a pair of these on in SENY yesterday.  The denim is AMAZING.

[Chris]

Is it enough to get you to set aside your Strike Golds?

[jacoavlu]

more interested to know what you thought of the cut?
the denim is not new after all
agree, amazing though

[babyknight]

I think it's a nice cut but not the ideal one for me personally, as I tend to prefer something that is as slim as possible around the thigh.  That's just what I think works best for my body type.  That said, I do find it somewhat difficult to accurately judge the true nature of a cut of unsanforized denim pre-soak.

The feel of the denim and reputation of its fading qualities made this tempting for me, but when it comes to retiring my Strike Golds (not quite yet Chris but I am planning ahead!) I think I am more likely to go for a pair of 666s (not sure yet between the 18oz and 25oz) or perhaps the raw Busters.
