[Giles]

I'm sampling at the moment…..

@Giles Your sampling a 634 or a 666?

[Giles]

The 634, I've already sampled the 666, they would not be a live product in production if I had not already made and approved samples….

[Billh9483]

Sorry just wanted to clarify

Can't wait to see some worn in photos!

Are they also with contrast gold stitching or more…stealthy?

[Giles]

By sampling, I mean I am running a sample of the sbg version of the 634.

@Rawdad:

Just my luck, thigh is a bit too small for me 

^^ thank god the thigh is a bit too small for me

[Billh9483]

How much give could one expect in the thighs? I normally need about 13.5 inches and that gives me a bit of slack

About 1/2 inch…..

@Giles  thank you!

What kind of shrinkage can one expect from these (inseam)? .5-1"?

[Giles]

<0.5

[Peter]

Thanks Giles. Is 1.5" stretch in the waist possible with these? Just measured my current pair (31.5") and they're way too big (probably 1.5"). Wouldn't want a size 30 to end up where these are now.

[Giles]

I guess possible yes…...

[Peter]

And the size 29 is probably too small.. Damnit haha. Thinking 30 might be good anyway.

[Rawdad]

Ahh what the hell, pulled the trigger. I don't own any black denim and like the contrast stitching.

[Peter]

How stubborn are these, fade wise?

[Rawdad]

Received them today, and I am glad I pulled the trigger! A bit snug on the thighs, but from the feel of the denim, they can certainly stretch a bit. Really like the contrast stitching.

21oz will stretch, no doubt. Congratulations.

I have the SBG BB's. Same denim. They have a special, rather nice way of fading. I find them stubborn, buy then again I think all SBG/ sulphur dyed denim is, especially compared to regular indigo denim. The contrast between blue and white is is always going to be stronger than black and grey. Here's my back (wallet) pocket after 60 days of wear.
