      Hey, I love the SDA pig.  I bought a couple of Studio tee shirts just for the pig.  The arcs suck, though.

        I ordered a pair of the 14oz Blue fit. The 20oz model was tempting, but I feel I've got enough heavy denim right now.

        Jury is still out on the arcs - initially I hated them but I'm coming round….I may keep them or pick them out depending on how they look when I wear the jeans. They should arrive next week, so here's hoping they fit.  🙂

            This is just for the Belgian hater…

            See, the arcs aren't even that noticeable.

              I was searching for the pig(s) on your t-shirt rather than staring at your arse though…

                Same, could you post some more pics of the tee in the SDA thread??

                  I'll try to get some photos posted in the appropriate thread.  Gotta do some laundry first.

                    My new acquisition, the Oni 14oz "Blue Fit".  Not much info is out there about Oni's, so I'm on an adventure!

                    http://blueingreensoho.com/site/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=shop.flypage&product_id=17&category_id=&manufacturer_id=8&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=62

                    I LOVE the denim on these, and they are different to anything else I have. Slubby, hairy, and very cool. Construction looks to be top-notch as well.

                    If the sizing works I'm planning to make these my lightweight jeans for the upcoming Aussie summer. Actually I'm a little nervous about the sizing - BiG site suggests 8-10% shrinkage, and I hope they do because in their unsoaked state theyare a bit too spacious in the leg.

                    I'll put up some more pics in the near future (after a soak). Here's hoping they turn out favourably!

                      i think that your postsoak fit is going to be a great one…just wash´em (instead of soaking them!) at first to make sure that all shrinkage is gone and if you looking for even more shrinkage, dry´em as fast as possible...

                      btw. i somehow miss the old couch and the jar of pasta supporting it 😉

                        All-in-all pretty happy with the shrinkage on these guys. Unless they stretch ridiculously with wear, I think they're keepers. The denim is even more amazing now after a soak, and I can't wait to get into these when the weather becomes too hot for IH.

                        Measurements ("Blue Fit" 14oz, tagged 32):

                        PRE/POST SOAK
                        Waist    34/33
                        Thigh    13/12.5
                        Knee    9.3/9
                        Hem      9/8.6
                        Inseam  36.5/35

                        AFTER 1hr HOT SOAK:



                        and the pasta jar, just for Finn  😛

                        Giving them another hoat soak as I type this, as I'd like a bit more shrinkage in the thighs…..

                          Second soak completed. To my surprise it didn't really shrink any further - maybe just a millimetre or two here and there.

                          If it stretches a lot with wear, it aint's gonna work. Time will tell.

                            Had the same experience with my 18 oz pair- no shrinkage whatsoever on the second wash.  No significant stretching, either.  So you might be safe with yours.;)

                              I hope you're right Chris, because I really like them. A week or two of wear should make the situation clearer. I'm planning to give them a solid run when the weather warms up a bit more. Still wearing IH for now….

                                  18 oz Oni model 211.  About six months of wear, about 7-8 washes.  Surprisingly little fading/evo, even for me.

                                    Sadly, it’s time for me to retire my beloved pair of Oni 211.  And before anyone freaks out and says, “but they still have tons of life left in them!” know that the only reason they’re going into the closet is so that I can participate in the HWDC2.  Otherwise, I’d still be wearing them, because they’re just now getting to the good looking stage.  If only I weren’t such a slow fader.  It’s a bit sad, really.

                                    Here’s what they look like after nearly a year of daily wear and 9 machine washes.

                                    Check out that streaky, uneven weave in my sorry butt fades

                                      Nice work. If they still fit after 2 years, I'd bust them out again.

                                        Planning to do exactly that.  They're a nice relaxed fit now, so I'd have to get really fat for them not to fit.

                                          looking good chris.  Im tempted by Oni….but that needing another pair of jeans like a hole in the head analogy applies here...
