    @Seul:

    Still no answer as to why this mainly/ only (?) happens to the left leg..

    i guess it's cuz 90% of the denim, used on jeans, is RHT…which means that the denim on the left leg is going to twist!
    with LHT it's the other way round and theirs twist in the right leg!...

        @Giles:

        On Left Hand Twill fabric is there more twist in the right leg?  Guess we'll find out soon….

        This is what I was also wondering… Can't wait for those btw...  🙂

          I quoted you but changed "left" to "right", Giles… Cause I suppose a LHT jeans will have the right leg twist, right?..  😃

              Did I miss something?  Where can I find more info on these Left Handers coming out?  Fit, material, sellers, etc…

                    I have a pair of jeans that are half LHT and half RHT. No twists at all.
                    I swear!
