ROY

[tigerpac]

Very nice Ben.  I've got the RN04 and while the fades are slow going, the denim is interesting and they are great jeans - enjoy your Roys!

[grandmasterben]

Thanks guys, I definitely will! I'm so stoked on these, this was exactly the type of fit I wanted.  Slim but these are still seriously comfortable.  I'm looking forward to taming this denim!

[Arabit]

Those are the Buck Tites right?
Nice fit

[grandmasterben]

Yep, buck tites. Really perfect for dudes that like a bigger thigh and small hem. And thanks!

Roy4s, ~5 months in rotation with my IHs… 1 soak and just washed (sorry, shitty cel phone pics).  These britches really grow on you.  At first I really liked the story, but the jeans were, well... meh.  But the more I wear them the better they look and fit.  Now I'm in love - these are special.......

Everyone who loves denim should have a pair IMOHO.

I agree with you Bluegrass.  The RS04 denim starts out almost grey, but turns into a beautiful shade of blue over time.  One of my favorite pairs right now.

I would, but the sizing tables always throw me off.

had to chime in on this. i have a pair of rno4 and the roy ducks. both are amazing pairs of pants. roy is my idol and the reason i have started to sew. i have been buying and learning how to using a bunch of machines, mainly from watching roys videos and learning what machines he uses. i have a 43200 g, a union special edgelock, old school singer bartacker, merrow serger,  singer for the waistbands,  and the list goes on. ive been learning now and practicing for a few months and plan on making my own jeans to sell within the year. so long story short, because of roy and how sick his approach to making jeans is. i am now hooked!!!

[Bluegrass]

Good luck!  Worst case it's a cool hobby, and best case who knows where it will take you.

Yeah I have them. They're pretty cool. If you look around you'll find plenty of other brands that use either the exact same cone mills fabric or at least very similar. You can see through the material when you hold it up to light, that's how loose the weave is.

Raleigh Denim uses Cone Mills in all of their denim

Thanks urb. I interpret your post as they are nothing special. Do yo like them?

Solid construction and tons of details, like with all his garments. But at the end of the day I really don't care about details that aren't visible or add to the construction. You can find American made pants, shirts AND jackets in this same material from at least 2-3 companies that I can think of. All for like $100-150 less. So, it's just up to you and how much you care about certain details. The material is very cool. It fades nicely and very quickly. It's probably been 6 months since I've worn mine though.

[veloaudio]

Great info. Thanks.

I like hidden details
