The Strike Gold

[mclaincausey]

Gosh, probably on the order of $30?  I have a shirt coming in today I will check the invoice.

SG 3105s. These are 17oz loomstate LHT.  Still slightly damp on the top block from last night's soak.

Really need to hem these.  What do y'all think of the fit?  I'm a fan.

Pre-soak (30 minutes in near-scalding water from the tub):

Post-soak:

Some streaky vertical fades predicted by this slub:

Pockets, inseam, and belt loops have solid ridges to attract friction/fades:

These should fade beautifully, here's a yarn:

Man MCL! I really dig that t

[mclaincausey]

Thanks, I am getting better at determining what suits me based on measurements, I've been burned in the past   Kiya was a help as well, and needed as these are my first unsanforized jeans.

Solid fit my boy!

[Finn666]

brilliant fit right there mcl. …the only thing i dislike about TSG are they pocket arcs!
denim and details are pretty interesting...hopefully i'm gonna end up with a pair one day...

[mclaincausey]

Thanks!  Yeah the arcs are for some reason really controversial. I love em. Single needles stitched and IMO cool and unique.

The denim is outstanding. I miss them already (getting hemmed).

[Seul]

I love the arcs and would've owned a pair of SGs a long time ago had they a pair of high rise jeans to offer…

Dare I say it, my SGs 2105 (or 09 can never remember which) have been getting the most wear in my rotation lately.  They're about due for a wash, will post up some pics afterwards

[mclaincausey]

Got em back from BlackBlue chainstitch hem job. Love these, I missed em. Denim feels so good and breathes well in this oppressive heat.

These bitches be crockin like a mufucka.

[urbanwoodsman]

Damn dude, those are sic.

[corporalclegg]

The praise goes to my brother they stopped fitting me about a month in.  He welds and works in a warehouse for a living so he kind of beasts thru jeans, I only took them to get them fixed up and figured I would post some pictures before they go back to him.

[mclaincausey]

Badass. Home mine look half as good one day

[Seul]

Well that's one way to get rid of the arcs (if you don't like 'm)…  :o

[tigerpac]

Those look great, no need to post up my not nearly that faded 2109s now.

How is the fitting guys? Sorry for the poor quality photos.

[RocknRoll]

Promising fit. Give them a soak/wash and they'll look great!

This is after wash fitting. Lol!

[Denimrox]
