The Official Men Without a Country For Farinelli's Jeans Thread - Page 6

it's a riveting experience

Does it matter? I have dope roping fades on denim without chain stitched hems. I don't get the hullabaloo.

Great collab Mauro. The selvedge line looks fantastic, the cut looks great and the weave on the denim looks really tight. Would definitely make a great winter dark denim for next year. I know some peeps hate selvedge coin pocket but I don't mind. That buffalo leather patch looks awesome too.

Roping still occurs on the lock stitched hems, but it takes more of a puckered shape instead of the "rope" .

Also, the reason roping occurs is the hem twist caused by the machines that roll the hems when they chain stitch it. I'm not sure that lock stitched hems feature this.

Fair call. I remember who had a rant about it IIRC

Yes, the hems are not chainstitched. If I'm not mistaken it was done intentionally from a historical aspect similar to how the LVC 1890 model isn't chainstitched, either. Mauro can expand on what I mean but there are more than a couple of details on the jeans that have historical value that most people would glance over without realizing. Admittedly, it was a bit out of my realm when I had it explained to me but still added to the "cool" factor.
I'm definitely in the "hate selvage coin pockets" party train as I'm not huge on details that immediately draw attention. The coin pocket is also a bit wider than usual but the selvage line is so unique that I ended up changing my opinion on it the more I thought about it.

I figured there was a reason for that. The selvage line is very cool

yeah its definitely bolder and a needed change for my denim lineup

I bought one quite similar, same cut , orange sewns amd dark denim last year by Paul Smith.

Never heard of those but looks pretty good.

Inseam is too short for me unfortunately. Too bad they don't all run to 34.

I just bought new black denim, I guess it's time to retire my crappy old APCs. Love it.

So will these guys be releasing some washed denim in the future? I definitely want something dark, I just don't really like raw denim. Also, longer inseams would definitely be necessary.

if i like the measurements + if u had it in black, i would buy. got too much blue denim...

Mauro, just to clarify, do you mean there will be another MWAC x SF collabo in the future with a fuller leg? Or are you referring to a Wolf vs Goat pair?

Me too I wish they all ran ~ 34....people can hem !! I just cant wear
