The Strike Gold
-
Strike Gold 3105. Shot I my Iphone 6 so the pictures probably aren't showing as much contrast as in real life. I will try to take better pics later. Anyways, about 17 months of weekend wear and 6-7 machine washes. I really love the cut, texture, and color of the denim. My only gripe is that I don't really have any honeycomb fades. Maybe it's because the jeans have been washed too frequently?

xx05 is their straightleg cut. They might not be tight enough at the knee for heavy combs.
Washing them frequently is fine. Make for a more vintage look and fade -
Yeah but my 710xx (also in size 36) are even more loose around the knees and seem to be developing combs….Also, there are others who wear xx05 with nice honeycombs too...

Idk then man. I dont recall seeing your fit in either pair so i cant comment on whether one pair is slimmer through the knee then the other. I dont get heavy combs myself, its prob cuz i dont ride a bike in them tho lol

Snagged a Crew Neck Sweat from SE this week. Was a bit worried about the fit, but turned out exactly how I wanted.
Pre wash:
Post wash and half low tumble / half air dry:
And for those who are interested. Here are he measures I got. Don't ask me how it "stretched" in some places and shrink in others. Probably just from "trying it on" gave it some initial stretch.

Looking good Appfaff! I assume you are wearing an XL? You are right, some places stretched while others have shrunk - in all the right places! I just started to wear mine recently, will have to wash it to get all the shrinkage out.
