So what’s the consensus on how much stretch this fabric might have in the waist?

Not very much, max up to 2 cm.

@Iron-Heart-Germany
fits you great Shane
they are a little to wide for my taste , but I think I’ll buy them anyway . Could be great for my work and the fade potential really thrills me .
sure that it streches that much ? always thought that it fades just a little bit, if at all .

@Alex what do you think how much strech can we expect from the 21oz serge ?

[Giles]

It's a twill, it'll stretch 2-3cms. One of the reasons that denim (which is a twill) and twills in general have been historically used in jeans/workwear, is that they strech and mold...

Basically it is impossible for a twill weave not to stretch....

@Giles
thanks Giles !
maybe I mixed it up with something else

[Giles]

A plain weave (chambray and duck) will hardly stretch at all, in comparison to a twill weave...

Might size up on these…but I’m so stoked!

Re: stretch, I had the 555s that were made out of this same fabric (am I correct there, @Giles ?) and I do recall getting a fairly normal bit of stretch out of them. They were very comfortable in the top block; the only reason I sold them was because I just like wider leg fits.

You are.......

I love that fabric, really such killer fade potential. I didn't take mine too far, but I remember the ones Sam had in some of the various product pics and they were up there with some of the best I'd ever seen.

So in terms of the cut: the main difference between these and the 634 would be slightly wider cut from the knee on down? Really interesting, but torn between the Indigo version and black. Love Indigo fades, but have only one black IH (in 666, now a bit too tight for me).. and so this would be the more rational choice

Wider in the thigh, and down from there

Got ‘em! Yaaaayyyyyy

Likely to get a similar amount of stretch from these as with 21oz denim?

[Giles]

Yes

I am trying to practice restraint here and not add another pair to the pile. These are in fact a continuous production and will re-release in a couple years/give or take?
