The Strike Gold
-
@Jordonf9 I would describe them as fairly stiff and a little abrasive. The denim is quite rough compared to something IH makes. They are pretty much the slubbiest jeans I've owned, or seen in person for that matter, and you can definitely feel that uneven texture a bit on your legs. If you go with a more relaxed size you may not feel it as much. However, I would not call these uncomfortable at all, and they definitely have caused me no pain, like some jeans are known to do early on. As long as you aren't expecting a nice smooth feel like a long staple, cleanly woven denim provides I do not think you will have any complaints.

Nice combo @match. Have you considered adding a brown belt to this particular combo? I reckon it would enhance your overall look

^I now understand the absence of a belt, in order to show in full the cut and detail of your denim

I did one after purchase modification which was to remove the cotton lace in the hood and replace it with a square cross section leather lace

Can anyone supply me with what the different numbers for the cuts mean? I'm a bit confused… numbers ending with 09 are their slim tapered cuts? or numbers ending with 05? I just don't get it - Trying to talk myself into a pair of SG's....

Thanks @EastWest - their fabrics are spectacular and i like slim fits, eyeing on their 6105 cut but might switch to a more tapererd one.
-
Their tapered is seriously tapered. I have handled that 6xxx denim. It is glorious stuff.

that denim looks amazeballs! i see what you mean with seriously tapered from looking at the measurements in the 6109 cut, looks almost near skinny jeans in my size

I will echo the cut of their jeans comments. I have the self edge SEXSG24 in "straight tapered". They are definitely slim and very tapered. In hindsight I probably should have sized up and worked with the extra room in the waist. That said the denim is probably my favorite out of any I have owned currently or in the past.
