Thanks Kiya,

Not trying to be thck-headed or difficult, but what I was trying ascertain was/is: If I want the waist to be as close to 32" as possible post-stretch, but minimize the amount that they are over 32", would 31 or 32 be a better bet. Overall, I'd prefer to have the rest of the measurements be closer to the pre-shrink measurements for the 31 (or even the 30) but I need the waist to end up at 32"

Are you guys going to get any fall pieces from the Mister Freedom Men of the Frontier collection? Like the drover blouse perhaps

Kiya, do you have any way of getting a hold of the Mister Freedom engineer boots ("Road Champ" I think)?  I'd be interested in trekking down to NY to try on a pair (and if they fit I'll probably buy 'em).

Yes, those are all lovely but they are too tight in the legs. I need something with a 34 waist and at least 13.5+ thighs, and 10+ knees. I've found the IH 1955 works. There are probably others but they're hard to find.

I would definitely go for the size 31 in that case, they'll be perfect once they've stretched a bit.



Yup, we have the jackets and shirts at all stores now, they'll be up in our online store in about a week.

Those are only available at MF direct.

Really? The Okinawa and Hawaii are quite wide in the thigh.

Yes really. I do some barbell weightlifting, and despite the fact that I am not very strong my quads are too big to fit comfortably in most jeans. It's mostly an issue while seating down of course. Most relaxed cuts tapper too fast to the knee. To fit me, the knees really need to be 10+ inches because the quads bulge just above the knee. This is hard to find on a 34" waist (I'm talking about fully shrunk measurements here).

Many weightlifters cannot find jeans that both fit & look good. And I emphasize that I am not very strong or big by any stretch.

Just picked up a pair of the SL-220X's on my lunch break at Self Edge L.A. Getting those bad boys chain sticthed, looking forward to my first pair of 3sixteens.

Bump

If the jeans are super tight in the waist you'll definitely get 1.5" of stretch with normal wear.

Any specials going on? I haven't seen.

Would like to know when you folks will restock inventory.

No sales happening anytime soon, we only do them once or twice a year and they're only for 10% off.

We get restocks almost every week for nearly every brand we carry.

 

Any model of RJB that gets restocked?  I'm in the market for a pair.

Yup, the 103BSP and 106BSP are always restocked.
We have full size runs at SENY and SELA if you want to place a phone order or you can email/PM me and i'll take care of you.

We've just received full restocks of jeans from 3sixteen and Buzz Rickson Pea Coats at all Self Edge stores and in our online store.

Along with these restocks we've gotten our new run of Flat Head tees and flannels, some which we've had before, check the online store under Flat Head for tees and heavy winter flannels.

Any collaborations with Alden and Leather soul on another pair of shoes in the works?
