Nope.  If they are better, why would I? And if they are worse I would not want to diss them…...

[Giles]

I also got a pair of Artist denim recently too…..

[Seul]

In all fairness though: what are the odds of them being better ey?..

I only meant how they were constructed, the denim, etc. Wasn't looking for a positive or negative, just the details.

Slim to none.

[Hemi]

I've got some on order too.

[Giles]

I like these guys…...

but we have prepared a special case for you. and we managed to make one
pair specially for you.

Are they based in Indonesia?.. Cause the conversion for 450.000 Rupiah comes out to 50 $… In that case I might try some of their stuff, heh... 

[beautiful_FrEaK]

you missed the 1.000.000 though

[Seul]

Damn thought that was Rpl… Still: that's 160 $... Also not too shabby... 

[beautiful_FrEaK]

That's right! But I think you have to act fast. From what I got from this brand, they produce one model and when it is gone, it's gone. So far they are too small to produce jeans and stock them. I might be wrong here though

[Lucifer]

They are rereleasing the heavy model late in march, I'm getting one to try it out

[ADDIC]

nice. i'm gonna wait for their OD model myself (whenever that comes out)

[ADDIC]

hopefully by the end of this month. hit me with an email to social@oldblueco.net if you want to reserve your size first.

cheers!

yax on sufu talking about the heavy model

[Lucifer]

Yup! I have reserved a w38, curios to how it will fit/feel. Week till they are in

[RocknRoll]

I went to the website with some skepticism, but was pleasantly surprised. It looks like these guys know their shit, so let's hope the product matches the hype!

(I'm sure that having Giles onboard helps ease the minds of IH fans).

Those who buy…please keep us posted when the goods arrive.

Very low rear rise on these jeans, anyone ever see any fit pics?

[Lucifer]

Just got my heavy weight edition last night, so far I must say that I love the fit/cut. A bit boxier in the hip-area than my WG elephant 2 and my sufu/sf/dry bones collab. The rise is somewhat lower than the sufu/sf/dry bones collab, feels similar to the superblack no-fades from IH. Not even close to as low as the N&F WG E2s.

I did not see any option to hem them, so I have to try to get them hemmed locally. I would like them to be somewhat more tapered down the calf, but can't have it all.

As for denim, hard to say yet, it is a bit more.. "hairy"? if that is the right word? does not feel very rigid, but then again, I have not used denim lighter than 21oz in like 5-6 months, so I'm a bit "weight blind".

[apba1166]

Lucifer, can you give some post-soak rise measurements when you break them in a bit? Thanks.
