    For some reason the Buco stripe is the one TRM piece I've wanted since I heard about the brand. Still not got one, but this looks  8). What's the sizing like on them?

    They are heavy duty Im usually a big med or small large this is an extra large …

      Thanks mate. It’s a 44. I usually wear XL in IH, 17 in RMC, 44 in flathead.

          Superb jacket @Bfd70 is that the J-22 or J-24? (I have the J-22 with wool lining) 🙂

              Okay, so I've been down on RMC for years: I saw the prices and just couldn't understand nor did I get what went into each piece. Admittedly it was never an issue to spend the same on IH gear, but that was a known quantity. The nice folks over at Standard & Strange in Oakland just sent this over today. They suggested that I snag an XL since I'm tall and have long arms. Maybe it's because I'm so used to shit being super cropped or not the right length, but this sweatshirt feels loooonnnggg in the body while the arms fit better than any hoodie I've had in years.

              Any thoughts? I wanna make sure that XL is a good size for me as I plan on snagging a crewneck from them later this month and might have a B10 in the wings, too.

              Also: this thing is SICK. Super comfy and insane fit and finish. I get it now.  😉

                  Thanks. An issue i have being lean is that there isn’t much wiggle room in sizing. This is a good utilitarian fit for me because i can wear a tshirt or a sweatshirt with it. However, if i hit the big lottery and money was no object i would buy another one 1 size down for wearing with just a T.

                    @Bfd70 – I know that problem well. 6'6" and 190lbs here. I could wear a medium but I need the length so I buy a large in most brands. With IH, an XL is often needed to get the length. Sizing is tough.

                    Either way, here's to you winning the lottery  😉

                                Thanks. It was a bit of a stretch but I’m really enjoying it.

                                      I picked up a pair of Lot.001xx from S&S — I was really psyched about checking these out, but I'm really leaning towards sending them back now. I knew it'd be a trad cut, which I've been way into lately, but the top block is SO billowy it's almost like a pantaloon type thing happening.

                                      I'm curious how much they'd shrink, but it's not a risk I really wanna take. I understand they can come in quite a bit in the waistband but will stretch back out — my biggest concern is how much they'd shrink in the top block, and tbh it couldn't be that much. I got a size 33, and I think sizing down to a 32 would maybe be too tight in the waist after a shrink.

                                      Anyway, debating it but like I said, leaning towards just returning em. If anybody's got any experience with these jeans, I'd be curious to hear how it went for you. The denim looks and feels incredible, but the fit's just really too loose for me, as far as I can tell.

                                        These jeans are going to shrink quite a bit everywhere.  It's hard to say how they will fit afterward, much depending on the water temperature and agitation.  When I was a kid we'd get them big and wash them hot. (I mean comparable ones, not Real McCoys.)  But if you wash them of course there's no returning them. Most jeans once fit like this–-then again Roger Bannister was also the world's best miler and Brando didn't yet look like a hydrogen air ship.  😎

                                          Cool, I figured — it's pretty wild though because I've found all kinds of varying information about how much they shrink. Some people have suggested that the 2" shrinkage listed on the RMC site is because that includes a trip through the dryer, which I am not gonna do (not really interested in that, ever).

                                          I've never had a pair of jeans shrink more than an inch, even on a hot soak. The only time I got any kind of really drastic shrinkage was when my washer taps were accidentally installed reversed and a pair of unsanforized PBJs got a very very hot wash. They were kinda snug to begin with, so they officially became a lost cause. Other than that, they always shrink less than I expect and tend to stretch back out, so I dunno?

                                          Mari and Gen from S&S are gonna get back to me on what they think. My plan is to size down 1, but I'll wait for their advice to make my final decision. I saw Neil mention on a Superfuture thread that Gen had a pair years ago and didn't size down, but he didn't elaborate on how that worked out for him. I feel like that'll be some useful info.
