raleigh denim - Page 15

I heard someone died in sullivans last week

I said BoO, but I never noticed the other two.

is that what it sounds like? BBQ? I hope so

btw... thanks pscolari!

Yes, BBQ. Has been featured on the Food Network many times.

Thinking of picking up the Nash Straight in either Rinsed or Raw.
For any owners of either which would you recommend?
How did you size them?
How much stretching?

I always prefer raw but that's just me. As for the stretching, they will stretch atleast one size. If you like your pants loose, go down 1, if you like them snug fitting, go down 2. Waist is what stretches the most, haven't seen much from thighs at all.

Thx for the info.
Are they TTS (i.e. does a 32 measure out to 32)?

Raw's comes about an inch larger in the waist. Post soak, they should be TTS.

Just got my Raleigh Nash Jeans shortened to about a 31 1/4 inseam...next up is  getting them tapered to a 15 inch ankle/shin opening...They will exactly on par with my R13 and Polo Slim-Straight jeans...I'll post some pics when the jeans are done

Why not have jeans with two different cuts? 

 

The extra long raw denim with the baggy lower leg opening that you have to double cuff isn't for me...plain and simple....the 15 inch leg opening is standard for all of my jeans and chinos...the 15 inch lower leg opening is the most versatile cut for me

Don't see the point of buying a jean and altering. Just buy a different brand that makes your cut if you like that cut.

Well if I were a little guy I would buy a pair of Thin fit raleighs and call it the day...However, I am 6'  223lbs with a 33 inch waist..I am a built like a football player...the biggest problem I have with jeans is finding a decent pair that fit well in the waist, backside, and thighs...When I tried on my raleighs for the first time they were the best fitting jeans I had ever put on in my entire life...So I bought em without any hesitation...Now as far as the altering goes, no matter what jeans or pants I buy, I will always have to get them altered just because of my build (only other option is custom)

To each their own I guess. I'm just not a fan of altering the intended look

My impression is that the current stock will stretch quite a lot, is that right? I tried on a pair of Keats wash 30" that we're barely button-able, but the sales rep suggested I try the 31", which I now have on order from another store. It's a killer sale price and I'm a little worried about missing out on the 30s, any sizing thoughts to help me?
