Freenote Cloth
-
Can't justify it at the moment, but damn! Riders jacket comes in denim now! Was looking at the shoulder measurement being a little too narrow though anyway.
-
My apologies if this has come up before, but does anyone have any experience with Freenote's 17oz Black/Black slubby denim? How does it feel and age if so?
-
@phoenixinflight I have a pair of Wilkes in the 17oz black by black. The fabric is fairly stiff.You can really feel the texture.I haven't worn them a ton that pair is a dress up or date night pair. I think it will fade rather nicely with some dedication.

Anyone have Freenote Deck Pants in size 30? Is it possible to get the waist measurements in IH-way? I’d really appreciate it
Tried size 31 in a local shop and could almost fit my fist in the waist Usually wear size 30 in other brands jeans/pants. -
@phoenixinflight it’s a nice denim. A little crunchy at first but breaks in really nicely, the fading comes in quite white so it does have that black/white contrast which looks kinda cool. But if you’re after a stealthier black long term you might not like that. I really like them though.

@pmadison95 @americanathreads thanks for weighing in. Appreciate it. Something to ponder while I wait for the October 2027 restock of the 17oz Modesto. Love the look of the cut as I'm leaning more toward high rises these data
-
@americanathreads Interesting on the fading too. I would think a sulphur dyed warp and weft wouldn't show much white core at all. My UES black/black double knees have been worn HARD as it's more grey/charcoal contrast, but they definitely aren't as jet black as the Freenote look. You got any photos of yours?

I want a pair of the 17oz black. I have the indigo version in Belford and that denim is awesome. Stiff, creases nicely, lots of character.
The indigo/brown is really cool too. I feel like that one is maybe a little slept on, but I'm so glad I tried it.

@americanathreads Thanks for that! You can definitely see some white streaks coming through. Certainly must given up the sulphur dye easier than some other black warp and weft pairs - or is rope dyed and the white core is intact.
