The Strike Gold

[Jestre]

Wow, these really look stunning.  One of these years I'll put some serious wear into my 2109's knowing how incredible the denim turns out.  Beautiful pair you have there, nightroad.

those look great nightroad.

happy the new sweatshirts go up to XL

anyone here have the crew neck? worth it? a super nice, soft fleece sweat sounds pretty perfect right now….not really sure if I'd go medium or large though.  anyone have any opinions?

[Qinhan]

The crew neck sweats are super nice and I really like the cuffs which seem to hold their elasticity really well.  I'm a medium in BR sweats and a medium in SG too, if that helps.  Stuff fits true to size, imho.

[grandmasterben]

It does, thanks. Mainly worried about shrinkage, but recently I've really been trying to actually buy the right size instead of the "comfiest."  Are you a medium in IH stuff? If so it looks like I'd go medium…

[emceeQ]

Love the sweats.  Have two of them actually.

I wear medium in most Iron Heart tops and a large in these if that helps

[emceeQ]

And just saw your post.  These do shrink considerably as well…

[grandmasterben]

Thanks mike, looks like ill go with a large then. Also, to contribute, heres my strike gold belt after about a year. If I could do it again id go with a size larger (so I'd size up 2 from my waist size), but I'd still go with this very same belt.

I'm small to medium in IH shirts (check out my role call if you need more detailed info).  Large would probably be the way to go.  You'll love the construction on these.  Top-shelf stuff.

Those look exactly like a pair of jeans should do after two years. Brilliant.

Wow,
I have just read through this whole thread,
I'm new to raw denim and was considering a pair of 3sixteens but if I can find an offer on a pair of these jeans I might just
jump in the deep end,
They look incredible from this thread!

I have the 1105 size 29 hemmed To 32.5 i think, need to remeasure, worn about 3-4 times, no real signs of wearing. If interested pm me.

I have now bought a pair of 2109s,
This is my first pair of raw denim jeans, I was amazed at how stiff they were, but I am loving it!
Might post some fit pics later

^You are going to love them, that denim with mud wash weft is epic.

They'll soften up and become amazingly comfortable - I have the 2105s, love em.
