Hi

Would anyone mind posting Ande's measurement chart and fit guide? I live in China and whatever host he uses for his images seems to be blocked by the great firewall.

Thanks a bunch!

And go Ande!

these are 2008 cone mills version of ande whall grifters. They have about a solid two+ years of wear on them, they developed knee tears on both of the knees, just got them patched up, finally wearing them again. This is my example of how regular cone selvedge fades.

leather patch. I'm so happy to have these up and running again. I should get back my other pair of grifters sometime soon, will post pics of those when I get them back

I just got the sr6 in the mustang cut.

Amazing.

The denim is nice but the construction is even better, top notch.

Let this thread rise again. Ande Whall is pretty much all I've been wearing since 2009.

Washed once, but I barely wear it now. Love the vintage color though.

Hell, I guess I'll wear it tomorrow since it's casual day at work.

Not sure if there's an official Ande Whall thread, but got an email today that Ande is closing shop in about a month (says he'll be busy with a friend's shop/art projects). He doesn't mention this, but there are so many options these days and an increasing number of custom denim manufacturers that I can't say I'm surprised. Might pick up another pair though.

Definitely a shame he's closing shop. His jeans have been on my wishlist for awhile, I just haven't been in a financial position to buy a pair recently. I think it's hard for a 1 man brand to to make a living doing what he does without selling in volume. Having lots of competition is one thing but the pricing is another. I've always wondered if he'd shift more jeans if he simply lowered his core offerings to something like $200-220 and then charge $275 for his SR series. Being in Australia probably hurts his ability to get more of his jeans in stores across the globe.
