@Filthy25ozJunkie  Go and order your self a pair. And see what you think about the 32oz jeans.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Thanks. I'm broke right now.  But maybe some day.

I'm debating if I should try out N&F elephants or Iron heart 25oz or 21oz…I'm moving up from UB 21oz. Leaning towards IH.

Your inclination is a superior choice.  I have the Elephant 2s and they're not as nice as my IH denim.

Thanks, I would upvote you but I can't figure out how.

That's because we don't have an up vote function…..

Has anyone picked up the new elephant 6? They look alright!

The denim looks amazing, but the cuts suck.  The Easy Guy has a 32" inseam across the board, which is stupid. Then it's seriously vanity sized- to get my usual 32-33" waist, I'd need to drop down to a size 30 or 31.  And that means the hem is somewhere around 6'5", barely big enough for me to get my feet through.  The Weird Guy is only slightly better.  At least the inseam isn't capri length.

Haha! I agree that is fecked! Why can't they make a normal guy cut?

I was tempted by them, @Brock because I've always wanted a heavyweight broken twill.  I imagine it would be so soft. But the cuts are so ridiculous. I may go for it if I can find my size, but it seems most places are sold out of 34ish

[BloodnThunder]

In my experience N&F heavyweight denims are some of the most unforgiving and brutal break ins.  I suppose it shouldn't be surprising as a denim of that weight selling for around $200 is not going to be made of the most supple of material.  A heavyweight broken twill definitely had me intrigued but I can confidently say the 6's would be unpleasant for a solid 30 days + worth of wear.

The cuts on the 6's are also really odd.  My size would be an 11.75" thigh and a 6" leg opening for the easy guy fit.  And also agreed that a 32" inseam across the board doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

Maybe someday they will figure out how to accommodate all body types

Heddels are reporting that Naked & Famous are doing an Elephant Denim jacket to complete the tux. :o

the 32" inseam is has to be a cost cutting measure. N&F stuff always goes on clearance somewhere so maybe they figured since this will inevitably happen they might as well cut their losses.

It's my birthday and someone kindly bought me a pair of Naked and Famous Elephant 6 jeans. They winging their way to Gosport to get hemmed.

They are stiff as a board, but I do like broken twill jeans. I have a pair of Nudie Slim Jims which are my favourite jeans. (I've not bought a pair of Ironheart's yet  - they are on my wishlist).

I'll let you know how I get on with them.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

IDK if I will ever wear these. But I just got a pair of these from Blue Owl. The denim and the patch look pretty cool. I don't have any good fitting black jeans. So I might wear them. Otherwise they are pretty neat.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

I'm particularly keen on the variations of the black denim.

[Chris]

That is some lovely texture on those.

[Niro]

I also picked up that akuma jean as well as the ryu one. My inner nerd went nuts for it.

Not sure if I will wear either, because I don't to spoil them
