First wear with the Guthries. These are 38W, hemmed to a 36 inch inseam. I’m a cuffer, and I’m really hoping that does not mean something else.
Overall, I think they fit really well. Not too tight in the thigh, with plenty of room in the top block. Definitely the kind of pant that is going to feel better every time you wear it. Also, with it being 20 degrees out, they are pretty damn cozy too.

@northsouthdenimguy looking great!! Pretty excited for my pair in April (hopefully)

-
Yeah, but I think in practice it wears completely different. From the crotch to the outside of the leg, it is much wider(14” unwashed)even though it measures 13 inches(on the chart) that measurement is far enough down that it does not feel tight at all.
The caveat to all of this is that everybody’s body is different. Even if two people have similar measurements, their thighs and waist can sit differently. Some people taper more, some carry muscle higher up, whatever it is. I am probably not saying it perfectly, but the point is they fit well for me.
-
Truer words were never spoken! Thanks for your response @northsouthdenimguy .
My female body is very different than most everyone wearing menswear, in any case.
14” in a 38 is still a super-skinny thigh measurement for a work pant, imo.

I washed my sashiko hat last night. First wash since I purchased it in 2024. Boy was that water filthy. I’ll spare that pic haha



-
Got my first SJ piece today - a denim townes, @northsouthdenimguy had in the marketplace!! Deal went smooth and shirt is great! Fits a little roomier than my IH pieces and that's what I wanted.

-
@FlavourFade looks great! Been wearing mine every single day since I got it


-
@mecken88 thanks buddy!! Will be in a tight rotation for sure
-
@Danimal506 hell yeah man!! That is looking so cool!
-
@FlavourFade that is a sick shirt bro. Looks perfect on you too!
-
Looks killer! Great fit.
-
@Danimal506 hat is looking awesome man! You’re making me want to find one.
-
@northsouthdenimguy new pants look good, how is the waist feel and what is your typical waist measurement?
-
I wear a 38 in all of my 21 oz IH 666s.
36w 666 25oz XHS and 36 in the 1955 16oz slubby
The waist is a little bigger on these, but this may sound crazy to some but I cold machine washed on low spin and then dried them in the machine to about 70 percent then hung dry. I think a 36 probably could’ve fit would but might be too slim. I have some room in these but they're not overly big.
-
@northsouthdenimguy Thank you. Good feedback, I was glad to see him do another release pre-order so I could grab a pair. This will be a good addition to my pants. I'm really only trying to buy 1-2 pants a year, and 4-5 shirts/jackets at most. Anything else just feels like over consumption.
-
@Mizmazzle It shrunk down again, and it significantly changed shape from when it was new. It is essentially custom fit to my head. Really makes me want to try and get a Sashiko Townes shirt.
@ZackB Thanks dude! I’m thinking of finding a backup. It’s my favorite hat ever. I’m a daily hat guy always looking for the next best hat. I was really hoping they were going to do a run in black sashiko. I asked Mike in an IG Live and he said he couldn’t source enough material for a hat run, unfortunately.
-
In his live last week Mike mentioned some Black Sashiko Ori finishing up, wondering if anyone has gotten the final invoice yet?
-
@hgering27 I haven't. And I have been stalking this thread in the forum to make sure I don't miss it. If I do get one and no one else has posted about receiving theirs, I will be sure to come back and let everyone who is waiting know.
-
You all will know when I get an invoice

It would be nice to get the shirt within the next couple weeks. Especially since it was supposed to be end of November, right?
