The Strike Gold has landed
SG2109 and SG 5105

[1fookntitefd]

^ very nice. Which one do you like better?

[ben2t]

I would say the the sg5105 is better because of the uneven texture and i perefered lighter denim.

Snagged a Crew Neck Sweat from SE this week. Was a bit worried about the fit, but turned out exactly how I wanted.

Pre wash:

Post wash and half low tumble / half air dry:

And for those who are interested. Here are he measures I got. Don't ask me how it "stretched" in some places and shrink in others. Probably just from "trying it on" gave it some initial stretch.

Looking good Appfaff!  I assume you are wearing an XL? You are right, some places stretched while others have shrunk - in all the right places!  I just started to wear mine recently, will have to wash it to get all the shrinkage out.

They're the best sweatshirts i've ever worn…period. Have the Oatmeal and the Black...need the grey one next.

Sweatshirt looks great Appfaff

[Appfaff]

Thanks guys!  Yes, it's an XL.

I ordered the grey, but I swear mine looks oatmeal lol

It was a toss up between this or the Buzz version but my wife said she liked this one better.  She has good taste I guess haha

Nice @Appfaff!  I have the black and love it.  So comfy cozy. Seriously thick. Enjoy!

[grandmasterben]

Not sure if you care, but that sweatshirt is absolutely oatmeal. I have the same one. Must've been a mixup…

[bertoni]

^ This… Definitely Oatmeal. Beautiful colour.

[Appfaff]

Hah thanks guys - I actually wanted the oatmeal, but it was all sold out online at SE.  Figured grey was the next mist versatile.

Good deal! Now I can still order a Grey One lol

Picked up the SG SD009LTD yesterday from SELA.
Size 31, warm soak, then hemmed to a 30 length.
Sized up 1 from my normal size. Also got the tab stitched back on.
Pretty stoked on the fit. What do you guys think

[BloodnThunder]

@chen321 the fit looks great.

A few weeks back I had a chance to stop by SEPDX.  They had some of the SG 5109/5105.  This denim is probably one of the most interesting I've had the privilege to see and looks like it would have some very cool fade potential.  Does anyone have a pair with some TLC given to them?

I see some really great progress shots but was wondering is anyone has a pair that have really taken a beating?

Also, for the current owners, how do you like em?

[xtcclassic]

I love 'em. Very interesting denim, loads of character, I've not seen another denim like it. It's a great summer denim because it's a bit lighter and loosely woven so it breathes well. Be aware that they shrink a lot in the width measurements.
