Filson Selvage Denim

Hello everyone:

I searched but didn't see anything about this. I just received the new Filson catalog in the mail and it appears that they have a new pair of selvage denim jeans available. Has anyone seen them? The fabric is White Oak Cone Mills denim, made in the USA. They come in regular and slim fit.

the oilcloth belt loop is beyond cheesy, the patch is ugly, the pockets don't appear to be riveted, and the pocket stitch looks like shitty Express jeans I used to buy in 6th grade. but other than that, cool.

I laughed.

I usually remove the back patch from jeans. I'm sort of torn on the back belt loop. It looks like the front pockets are riveted.

Anyway: I'm guessing that there are better options out there. I was interested in these because they had them available in 36" inseams. What else is out there for taller guys? The stuff I've seen all seems to end at 34". I'm certainly no expert, though.

How many times have I read this exact sentence on Styleforum?

I dunno. I'm guessing a lot.

I was in the FIlson store last Saturday and saw these. I have a feeling they're actually made in collaboration with Tellason, a lot of the details are pretty similar.

I don't remember the last pair of jeans I bought that came less than 36".

Weird. I guess I'm looking in the wrong places. What do you suggest?

hmm...interesting. The patch is ugly, but it would always be covered by a belt so who cares. The back belt loop is odd...but not sure i hate it. Definitely appears to be in colab with Tellason as "yoke over panel" is something I've only ever seen in a description for Tellason before. Overall seems a fairly priced offering, though not exactly the most attractive I've ever seen.
