@Filthy I admittedly I have not given them as much love as they deserve, but I do really like them. They are a bit fuller cut than I typically wear (usually wear a slim jean with a taper) but it's fun to rotate them in for a different look. If you have never had a pair of Roy's and are thinking of snagging a pair I would definitely recommend doing so. There is no telling how much longer he'll be making jeans and I think a pair of Roy's is a necessity to have if you are a denim collector. For what it's worth the following are my pre and post soak measurements on the Peanuts. I believe they are the same or very similar cut to what Self Edge is releasing in a few days. The denim is the same so you can expect similar shrink results:
Soak was hot with a kettle full of boiling water to start, and after 30 minutes I refilled the tub with new hot water and added a new kettle of boiling water for another 30 mins. Hang dry. In short, the denim shrinks like crazy.
Pre-Soak:
Waist: 15"
Top Thigh: 12.75"
Knee: 9.5"
Hem: 8.5"Post-Soak (slightly damp)
Waist: 14"
Top thigh: 11"
Knee: 8.75:
Hem: 8"Peanut Pants as of a few weeks ago:

They look great on you! Unless Roy starts making Ultra Heavy jeans, I'm afraid they are not for me. They are very well made though. I will give him that. I am keen on getting a Roy shirt some day though.
-
Thanks! The shirts are equally well made. I have a few from him, and I have to say, I probably like them even more than the jeans.
-
I have one of his shorts (the Portland) and it's awesome.

@Filthy:
@BloodnThunder @steelworker how did your Roy's Peanut pants end up working out for you?
I love them @Filthy though like @BloodnThunder I haven't been wearing them since the weather turned. I think I have 4 pair of Roys and they're all just a bit different.
-
I'd be pretty surprised if they didn't have all sizes available still when they go online. I'd also be surprised if most sizes didn't sell out the first day they hit the web shop. @kiya might have more insight into just how many pairs were even made though.
-
A total of 99 pairs were paid across all of our stores, we expect these to go very quickly tomorrow.
-
Looks like Roy is going out of business.

Definitely ready for the next release.
-
I'm not sure if you're joking or not @Filthy but I know that he's working on a new run of jeans as we speak for SE which I believe is what BloodnThunder is referring to. Supposed to be in a new slim tapered fit if I'm not mistaken.
-
@manufc10 if you read the post he says he wants to sell everything by the end of the year… but he edited the post now to say no rush, at some point.
-
Well that sucks. I love my Roy pieces!

Well that's too bad.

Awful. I really enjoy my Roy jeans. I hope he finds success on his next project.

Anybody getting in on new release tomorrow? I’m considering it sizing looks good

Thought about it for a bit but decided against them. Honestly just don't want another pair of Cone denim.
-
The new Roys appeared on the SE site at noon and both models were sold out before 1pm, less than an hour. I'm not sure how many pairs of jeans that involved but there were two fabrics, same fit, the 01. Wow. Truth is, I managed to score a pair but it was hungry bears in the honey jar. Congratulations to Roy and SE for making such a wonderful thing. My heart is made of iron but there's plenty of room for Roy. Thanks to @kiya and SE for making this easy and right.
-
Wow. That is my favorite release he has done in a long time. I would have been really pleased to score a tag 32 in either denim. Congratulations to the lucky ones. Beautiful stuff.
