      I am tremendously excited for my IH ORDER THIS WEEK!!!!

      If my knees weren't so old and rickety I'd be doing cartwheels over the sizing on this run!!! MyMBB contest jean may look close to brand new come 2015 with these now in my possession!!!!!!!!!

        hmmmmm, why no measurements on TS38?  Looks like there are a couple of pairs in stock…

                Just make another shop entry, one titled old run and one titled new run until the old ones sell

                        1. Because we used a new batch of denim and we thought it would shrink more than previous batches, so we made the raws a but larger - we were wrong.
                        2. None of our denim is Zimbabwe any more and has not been for about 3 years.  It is all American.

                          That's interesting. Thanks for the info Mr. Giles!

                          What is the cotton specifically? Is it a blend?

                            It is a blend.  Haraki specs exactly what he wants and then Ono-san from TSS sources it….

                              Thanks for the gee-whiz info Mr. G! Is it a super secret blend, particularly for this 18oz denim?

                              Sorry, I'm a nerd about this stuff. I like to brag and talk about the quality and little details of my jeans to my wife 😛

                                Funny to hear you say that! Me too, but my wife just rolls her eyes… I want to get her some nice denim so she appreciates it.

                                    nori – wear a good belt. then you wont have to worry about stretch

                                        UPS arrived 2 minutes after I walked through my front door, so here are some quick pre-soak fit pics.

                                        What do you guys think?  I'm thinking pretty much bang on the money (size 33)…

                                        And a final one to try and show the room at the waist.  Pretty generous right now, but post-soak with a belt should be snugger…

                                          GM, I think it depends what kind of fit you're after.  Those look like a straight, relaxed fit - I think even after a soak and stretching back out they will retain that feel for the most part.  You could size down if you wanted a slimmer fit I think.

                                            Thanks for the feedback BK, I can definitely see where you're coming from.

                                            It's the thigh & knee measurements that put me off the 32 slightly.  There's about half an inch difference between the 32 and 33 in both, so I'm wary of them being too tight across my cyclist's thighs (I'm not exactly Chris Hoy, but it is an issue!).  I already have the 555 cut in SBG to cater for the days when I fancy super-slim, so I'm aiming for the 666S to sit somewhere between these and the MBBs.

                                            Wondering whether a hotter-than-usual soak of the 33 might be the way to go?
