@Brock Maybe. Do you think the denim will be different and thicker than the Ramblins broken twill? Looks like it's going to have a beefy zipper maybe.

[Brock]

I have no idea. It’ll probably be a Japanese selvedge. The one I have is a 17oz kuroki mills I think

[mecken88]

Don’t know why, but kind of looks heavier then many of the 15oz they have used throughout different jackets.
I would not say slubby, but ever so slightly more “texture” then the lighter fabrics if you zoom in.. haha don’t know. Just overthinking here

Who is excited????

[TheChef17]

@mecken88 I’m about wear my denim jeans with a denim shirt, denim ramblin, with a denim Willis over the top

Can’t wait, should be a banger!

@mecken88 I noticed that the buttons are not the heavy ones thats used on the wax wills and kinda similar to the ones on the Ramblins pockets.

@TheChef17 Canadian tux over a Canadian Tux LOL

[mecken88]

@TheChef17 would be a banger combo haha

@myk1098 I wonder if it’s just the lighting

I love the front of the wills jacket. Really love it in denim even more than the waxed canvas. I’m not a fan of the back of the jacket. Don’t like the lower panel. Wish it had the same back as the Ramblin.

Just my lil ol opinion though.

Well since it is a preorder it won't sting as much to pay for the rest in January, but that release time is like 3:30 AM where I am

@Northman Set your alarm

[mecken88]

If you’re on the fence and have the funds, I would say it’s a no brainer. This denim Wills jacket is so special and would be a treat to own!

Iv blown my fund for a while with the Kristofferson on the horizon, the new Ramblin jacket and I’m waiting on the restock for a pair of black engineers hopefully any day now. So I will not be trying on this Wills.

But if I could, I absolutely would!
And for those that gonna give it a go, I’m jealous and I’m rooting for you!🫶

Thanks to a nice gentleman in Reddit I was able to snag a only washed and tried on sashiko ori townes!! it's a 2XL so a little relaxed but tbh I really like the fit. Only the length is a problem, that I will sort out with a hemming soon.

Now I was thinking, do I need to give it another hot wash or just wear it once it's hemmed? The sleeves are a little wide still, not to a point that it would annoy me much but still. Pics:

I feel you on this as well. It’s one of the reasons why I opted for a tin duck over pursuing a wills.

@FlavourFade looks good man. IMO a hot soak/wash wouldn’t be a bad idea maybe even a machine dry to tighten it up a bit more

[Brock]

The selvedge denim wills might just be my favorite jacket I own.. anyone on the fence should most definitely jump!
