Congratulations @Alex , wish you all the best!

Comfortable and versatile, the Orslow French pants are a favorite. I recently added the ecru iteration to my collection.

Snagged another pair

Nice , good to hear. ️

@Chibs So, are you saying the shorts fit tighter than trousers? What size did you go for—4? I got a 3 in both, and they fit pretty much the same on me. A little stiff on the first day, but they loosened up all over pretty quickly. I’d probably avoid machine washing or drying these.

@Chibs Mine stretched almost an inch after a few wears …

I usually go for the 105s, but 101 is another great cut from orSlow

@Chibs love it … camo for the win

One of my first pieces, reverse-sateen woodland shirt with a green lining.

@Chibs Nice pickup on that jungle jacket—one of my favorites too. Can't wait to see the full tiger camo. orSlow makes some good stuff.

Original green and faded side by side. Completely different feel—crazy how soft they end up.

I also have the Fatigue Slims in deep black, along with the stone wash, for direct comparison. I haven't had the chance to break them in yet, though—I'm curious whether the black will fade toward a white undertone or reveal more of a reddish cast. The hand-feel is noticeably distinct as well, which has me intrigued.

Seen the chatter on tiger stripe—figured I'd chime in, since I've had these Orslow pieces in rotation for some time. Tiger's the standout for me. Summer-friendly breathability, yes, but the ripstop has real heft and a satisfying rigidity—light-years beyond the flimsy mainstream alternatives. Worth noting—the waist gives nearly an inch with wear, so factor that in when sizing.

@CosmoSix5 Yeah looks ok to me too, what do the sleeves measure at on your 3XL?

@cb09 I hope not … my sleeves are already pushing it, I hope I’ll see some stretch since they were
”aggressively” washed?

@Brandrea

@Chibs That’s what I was thinking … thanks for confirming

@Chibs I agree, that’s one thing that stood out to me as well. It’s good to switch it up from time to time. Deciding if to pimp the top button with some Good Art

@Chibs we all should be … here is another one out in the wild, in photos I didn’t find it too exciting, in person it looks amazing.
