Thanks @sabergirl! They are quite comfortable & have lots of detail like the western pockets & leather washers for the rivets, all inside seams are taped so no raw seams -we'll see how they wear.

I can't deny it…. These will be my next pair of denim. I know that the detailing is phenomenal, but how is the denim? How does it feel when compared to the 18oz IronHearts? BTW, @steelworker I really like the pics with the Filson shirt.

Thank you @Anesthetist. I like Filson's wool, shirts & vests are good , other things I've picked up are no different from the dreck that is everywhere.
I haven't soaked the IH18II yet but they're two different animals. The IH is so dark it's almost black- dark , shiny tightly woven -it's not like anything I've got. I think I'm gonna have to soak and wear fast as these don't feel like summer jeans.
J/K has lavished extraordinary care on 15oz Cone that will seem unremarkable to IH people and I don't say this to put it down it's better than almost any denim in the market. Roy uses similar denim to make awesome jeans. -
I've heard some horror stories about the customer service of Jack/Knife. Really too bad as the product seemed to be pretty solid. http://www.rawrdenim.com/2015/09/jackknife-lawless-denim-closed/

I don't want to make specific comments, but what I will say is that all too many people think that this business is easy and any Tom, Dick or Harry could make a go of it.
It's not easy, it's full of risk and it's bloody hard. I'm continually amazed that we seem to make a decent fist of it….
