The Strike Gold

[summ3rhays]

New sweat. It's supposed to shrink a bit. The XL fits well now, but a little shrinkage and it will be perfection IMHO.

[davito]

Great sweat, enjoy wearing and nice A4

[mclaincausey]

Perfect. I didn't realize they made XL I think that's new.

[Greenie]

I think that looks great on you… don't think you even need to shrink it

[Greenie]

I just picked up a pair of the SG1109 jeans at SE…. I warm/hot soaked already and I got no shrinkage in the waste and I got the shrinkage you'd expect in length.... I sort of worried.... I'm soaking just the waist again, now and turning up the heat....fingers crossed.... anyone else have this problem?

[summ3rhays]

Thanks Davito and Greenie!

MCC, thank god they make XL. It's always the shoulder measurement that gets me with the Japanese brands.

[mclaincausey]

Greenie, I haven't, mine stretch out and shrink up in the waist probably by an inch or so, but mine are a completely different weave (LHT).  Just get it super hot, see if that does it, and if it does make sure you wear your belt cinched tight.  Let us know how it works out!

[summ3rhays]

Post wash and shrunk as expected per SE description. Fit is spot on IMO

[Seul]

Yeah that's a great fit mate!..

Thanks @mclaincausey:

Thanks, man, I just got home and they are still damp, but I think they shrunk down to 33" in the waist which is right where I want them, but will be good after they stretch…. finers

Great fit summ3rhays good stuff,

[tigerpac]

Very nice - always wish they'd make a bigger size than their XL but alas, looking good! (looks especially good with the snow coming down across the picture now lol)

Need your help people.  Was looking to get a pair of SG jeans.  What cut of theirs would come closest to Iron Hearts 634 cut?  I asked Kiya and he said there really isn't one.  I'm not looking for exact but something close would be good.  I don't want a tight top block or tight thigh.  Any and all help is appreciated

[mclaincausey]

I think the 2101 is probably what you're looking for.

[mclaincausey]

Or 1103 looks close too.

Seems like I'm on a bit of a Strike Gold binge lately, picked up the indigo dyed crew and the heather grey hoodie.
I've also got a pair of 2015s on the way that I'm very excited about, I've had my eye on that denim for quite some time. They should arrive some time this week.

[mclaincausey]

The xxx5 cut is my favorite cut of denim.

[Broark]

Definitely ment to type 2105, not 2015 haha.
But that makes me even more excited. I was worried the knee and hem would be a bit too big. But I've seen lots of fit pictures and they all look like a very nice cut.

[mclaincausey]

I think someone on the forum may have the 2105 (EDIT: tigerpac).  I love the mud dyed weft.  I (and babyknight as well) have the 3105, the left hand twill xxx5 cut.

Please share your experiences and pics when they land, I think you're going to love them!

[Broark]

I'll definitely be sure to post some pictures! The tracking information hasn't been updated since Saturday. I hope they get here this week since I'm heading to D.C. a week from today.
