Hey, @sisterray I'm curious about your elephant 6. How are they?
-
Hi @sabergirl,
I was a bit disappointed with the construction, I do like flat-felled seams on the inside of the leg. The stitching was a bit squiggly in some places. Also front pockets are a bit strange, quite wide, the coin pocket seems to cause a strange fold just above it.
I got them in the Weird Guy fit, and in retrospect I should have gone for the smaller size. I'm also not a massive fan of tapered jeans, they tend to bunch up at the knees.
I do like the denim, I have had broken twill jeans before but in a much lighter weight, but I have not had enough time to get a lot of wear in them.
There is a good post on reddit which shows more worn in pair.

Cool. Thanks for the info! I found some of these on sale, and since I couldn’t get heavy broken twill out of my head, I’ll probably pull the trigger. I’ve never actually had a pair of n & f, because the measurements only look off, somehow. Maybe it’s time to find out!

@Niro.
I also ordered at Tete+Yoko the 32 oz pants in sz 31. I got the item 4 days after order (by Fedex). Thats amazing.
Also German Custom wanted to have some money.
I called them, said something about Ceta. They told me I shall send an original invoice to them whitch includes signature of sender, declaration that pants are made in Canada and the place from where sender shipped item.
I still waiting for refund of custom fees. -
@twin.
Nice fit.
What is the tag size? -
@Eisenherz The tag size is 34
-
@Eisenherz ahhh ok that's good to know, thanks.
So you paid fedex and then contacted german customs yourself?
I am going to ring Fedex, because it's been 20 days since i sent in the ticket and have got no reply back. £12 is small in grand scheme of things, but I should not have to pay their extortionate admin fee for their or customs mistake
-
@Niro.
Yes.
Problem is that tete+yoko did not declare that pants are made in Canada.
I called Customs and they told me I should late filing invoice. I'm waiting now for refund.
Will report back, if Customs pays back.
But German Authority needs much much much money. -
N&F 32 oz sz 32/32.
Fits well. But if I would soak them, I coul'nt get closed them anymore.
My correspondence with customs: they want to have original signed invoices and declarations. Still waiting for refund.
-
jeans look good and I am not mad about that fit.
too bad you can not soak/wet as the fit doesn't look too tight to me.
-
I fixed the button and then tried to expand by an vice. Waist measure came from 16.2 to almost 17, but after dry it came back to 16.3 inch single waist. I think I could soak it with icecold water and only short time…

Liking how my N&F 10th Anniversary Easy Guys are looking these days. 14oz short slub denim made with cotton from 10 different countries. Kind of a fun idea. Seem to be fairly slow faders. This is after 10 months of occasional wear. 2 soaks and maybe 3 washes… and a heck of a lot of longboarding
-
Hey everybody Tate and Yoko has the 32 oz jeans back it stock. I just copped a pair!

I'm just going to not ever soak or wash mine… these are more of just a novelty really.
