ROY

[pillowPANTS]

Thanks for the heads up Mike and Chris. U guys def changed my mind aswell. I was considering the 666L Mike, jus really wanted to check out some of Roys work. I def dont need another warm pair tho. The BBxRAW and XHS are good enough lol

[Chris]

21 oz IH denim is definitely doable in the summer.  I don't hesitate to wear mine, even on the hottest days.

[seanocono]

Thanks, Chris. Yeah, we've had a couple warm, ~ 80*, days here in the past month, or two, and the 21oz. felt fine. It doesn't really get much hotter than that, where I live, so I should probably be good.

To stay relatively on topic, the details on the SF01 & RS04 are top notch, but if they don't breath well, then they are an easy pass, for me.

[Chris]

Agreed- Roy's work is top notch, and the attention to detail is amazing.  I'll probably never own a pair, since he likes to make them far too skinny for my build, but they are beautifully done.

[sirxlaughs]

That's interesting. I find my RS04s are slightly roomier than my SEXIH13.

[seanocono]

Yeah, my Roy Ducks are slightly narrow at the hem, but have plenty of room through the thigh; which is usually a problem area, for me.

@Forrest6775:

I got a pair of the SF01 ones last week but I haven't soaked them yet. Did they loose that grey tint when you soaked them? Did the length actually shrink 3 inches?

they lose the greyish tint pretty fast.  Its actually pretty crazy how the denim evolves

[veloaudio]

Hope someone with the Ducks can answer… do they stretch out at all post shrinkage?

Finally got to measure mine and I think they will stretch out prob at LEAST a half inch in the waist.

[seanocono]

^Anesthetist, I glad you were able to chime in here. Mine are definitely looser than they were initially, but I have shrunk some in the waist; so the difference was near impossible to figure.

[zhivago]

Yeah they stretch for sure.

[veloaudio]

Thanks all. I bought the Ducks. Soaked and dried them overnight and I'm breaking them now

[zhivago]

you'll love them

Guaranteed.

I heard Roy is doing a collab with Non-Riveted, Mike Harris' new brand. Mike also has some stuff with Blue Blanket and Jack Knife Outfitters in the works. Most of the stuff will be repros from clothes that he's found in mines, out west.

[seanocono]

^Sounds cool.  Keep us updated, please.
