My ALDs have already stretched a full inch in the waist - that's in 24 hours of wear (yes I slept in them)… Lol - I forgot that only the IH jeans are really stubborn...

The mailman brought me today:

[Seul]

Nice, can you post some more pics?.. Had several chances to buy this before but never did… Might if I see some nice shots of it...

[loghill]

But of course I can. It's really a great jacket, proper ALD quality.

While waiting, heres my Frontiers going for their first wash:

[Seul]

Yeah I have the Prescott jacket and it's epic in all ways… Yours looks even better, though... Pretty much jealous before even having seen more pics!..

My favorite jeans:
ALD Prescott, two years of hard wear including swimming in the North Sea (not recommend because of awful smell). Love it.

Could you upload it with http://www.imgjoe.com/ or something?.. Can't see it but would LOVE to…

[Pomito]

I'm working on it!

Next try:

[Seul]

Boomtime!.. Man those look great!..

[Pomito]

They sure do - I had to repair some minor parts already like the inner sleeves of one pocket but of course this simply adds to the appeal.

So sad you cannot get this model anymore. I should have bought some more pairs and put them in a safe….

Some more ALD stuff:

The Frontier

Jacket in its natural surrounding:

And at rest:

[Seul]

You can easily get ALD stuff man, and cheap… Let me know what you're looking for and what size(s) and I'll hook you up!..

And dude: I love your style... What jacket are you wearing on top of the Frontiers?.. Are you €uropean?..

[bertoni]

Great pics Pomito! I love ALD too. Got a pair of Frontier Selvedge on the go at the mo with another pair of Frontier Edition Limitée (Jeanspaleis) waiting in the cupboard. Was thinking of copping some Prescotts. Would have copped yours Seul but I was too late. I never know what size to get though…the sizing with ALD is confusing to say the least!

[Seul]

I got a size 30 Prescott and I'm a 32" waist…..... Took me 2 minutes to get into them, after half an hour they fitted perfectly...

So yeah: if you want a slightly tighter fit, size down... If you don't mind a slightly looser fit (as they're intended to be worn), stick to your true size...

The selvedge ones stretch quickly whereas the regular ones really don't... That's another thing you gotta keep in mind... But get selvedge ones... Not just for the sake of the selvedge, but the backstitching is blue on blue instead of blue with a yellow line... Just looks nicer...

If you wanna get a pair, let me know, lotsa people selling their leftover stock at low prices at the moment!..

[bertoni]

I take a W34 in 634S and they fit perfect. A W34 in the Frontier Selvedge is actually W36 before wash (not washed them yet). The Royal was TTS….so should I go for a W34 in the Prescott Selvedge?

[Seul]

Yep, ya should…

Aaaaaaaand BBOMTIME!.. Just bought a good-as-new 2nd pair of darktones... Lol... SOMEBODY STOP ME!..

[bertoni]

How much d'ya reckon for a pair of Prescott Selvedge W34 L33

[Seul]

100 €. I'll look for one tomorrow.

@ seul: Yes, I'm German and the jacket I wear in the upper pic is from Pike Brothers. Bought it directly from them at some Hot Rod meet two years ago and I am extremly satisfied with it.

There are frequently coming up ALD jeans on the german site of that internet auction house, but I haven't found a Prescott for a long long time. So if you could be helpful… (Waist 34, just in case...)
