^ Agree - Next Monday they will be taking a trip to San Francisco with a few other jeans to get snipped and stitched at Self Edge

you're not wanting a cuff? be careful hemming a new pair as the combs will take a good inch out of your length and it will most likely shrink a little more in your next wash.

yup remember to allow the knee break as jimmy says

i'm a cuff fan and i think it suits those denims - just thought you could let them come over the ankle a bit more

^ Thank you jimmy and Geo - I will take your recommendations since I am new to unsanforized jeans and cuffing - and I am really liking how the combing in the legs are taking shape on these

CW, These D1946 look very nice! Are the considered a straight leg or do they have a fuller thigh. I like them, where did you get them?

@jacoavlu:

anyone experience these SDA chinos?

oh, how I wish those IH chinos would come soon!

I own a pair of those SDA chinos. They are really nice, definitely the nicest pair of chinos that I've ever owned, though admittedly they are my only pair of high-end chinos so far. They fit on the slim side, I recommend going TTS with them.

Below are fit pics and some Rakuten detail shots of another SDA model, the D1496. These are 23 oz. LHT with a zip fly and some Lee-inspired details. I am wearing them in the same heavyweight denim contest as Aztec (the Black Pig guy).

Thanks for the kind words! I would classify these as a straight leg jean, but not really a slim jean. The fit is actually very similar to the SD-103 and somewhat similar to the 634S, for an IH reference. Several Rakuten stores carry this model, I bought mine from one named More-Net.

SDA XS31 Black Pig at 30 days with single hot soak:

beautiful_FrEaK

nice. those SDA overdyed fade really fast compared to the IH ones

Seul

I reàlly like those!.. Of course I'm biased cause of their usage of pig imagery…

BF are these really overdyed? Looks like the lining is dyed but the denim is a mixture of indiglo and sulfur dyed.

Genuine indigo warp threads interwoven with Black sulfur dyed weft yarns
Black dyed original logo Jacquard woven lining for front pocket bags, back yoke, and half-lined rear pockets

I almost got these jeans when I was looking for a black pair as the size 30 has perfect measurements for me, but I really like button flys.

Sounds a bit like my pair of Atelier LaDurance 'Prescott' darktone… Not overdyed, but has the look of it... Fades quicker and more nicely (imo)...

oh damn…always thought these are overdyed...sorry.
Gordon should know best
But still, they produce some nice fades. I'm really looking forward to Atzec's pair that he wars in the heavyweight denim contest

kit99bar

not too many overdyed jeans out there right? People want to have white bright visible selvage to show off

some pics of my SD103'S

first 2 pics are true colour

beautiful_FrEaK

looking really good there. I'm still missing one of the classic SDAs

Flash

thanks BF , the standard 15oz denim is great and the 101 seems like your type of cut

beautiful_FrEaK

that's what I thought too
103 might be too tight for my thighs and the rise too low. maybe I check them out at DC4

Max Power

Those SDA's look really beautiful. Almost like the old Denime denim. Worth thinking about, indeed.

Iron heart is awesome and I have a bunch of samurai but I always seem to reach for my sda 101s.

beautiful_FrEaK

and why shouldn't you?
there's so much denim out there, everybody has to find the perfect brand,cut,denim for themselves
