@elclintor:

The cone denim fades really slow..

yeah one of the reasons i do love cone denim. i have seen some pretty worn amazing ones on sufu jaco. i'll try and hunt you a link

[Guest]

So, I received my Ducks and RSIIs and I have to say, after dealing with solely IH for the last several months, these ducks seem paper-thin. I'm seriously concerned I am going to rip them apart one day if I happen to mindlessly undo the buttons too quickly. At least, that's my initial reaction. I'll pop back in with an update after they've been worn a couple of times.

fit is effin perfect…no matter how thick/thin these are

[Guest]

Yeah, even I was surprised when I tried them on. I bought them fully expecting them to be on the loose side, given the waist measuring 32. But, the low rise makes up for it. Granted, they're a bit slim, but paired with an equally slim shirt, light-weight shirt and these will make for perfect summer pants.

Thanks for the kind words, Finn.

I dig the colour it's just a shade darker than your everyday duck.

My ducks could beat up yours…

16oz vs. 11.25oz? No doubt.

[Seul]

Just pulling your duckie. Not a fit I'd like but it looks brilliant on you!..

2nd hot soak in hopes of getting, at the very least, .5-1 inch off the inseam.

[Guest]

Could have chopped another inch off the inseam, but this'll do. I'm happy with the fit, but the denim itself is going to take some time getting used to. (21oz is a heluva drug.)

[elclintor]

Nice fit!

Are those the RS-2's?

[Guest]

Yes, good sir, they are.

(And thank you.)

[elclintor]

Cool, hope they fade faster than the cone denim…. Mine are sloooooooooooww fading...

[Guest]

I'm not a denim-head like that. I don't really care how these fade, so long as they hold up.

I ordered a pair, can't wait to see how they turned out!

[Guest]

31 & 32 flew off the rack. Roy's got some loyal followers.

[elclintor]

I was able to snag a 31.. Stoked to see how these turn out!
