13.5 oz Cone Mills Selvedge, Made in San Fransisco, and only $81? Kickstarter

[gustin]

We haven't shipped them yet, so no one has experience. We'll be relaunching those again either this week or next.

Cheers. Thanks for the fast response.

If you brought back the Jade raws, I'd purchase in a heartbeat.

Regarding sizing- I mostly wear 32 (some brands 33 and the occasional 34) but the straights in 32 were too small for me. I got the Heavy Japans (15oz) from their Kickstarter in 32 Straight. Beautiful fabric, but unfortunately the waist is too small for me.
33 might work, not sure yet.
I think Gustin wrote on their site that one should size up 2. That seems to make sense.
Let me know if anyone's interested in the pair.

thanks for the info!

would really like to get the umber brown jeans, but i don't know if they are slim enough (or would shrink enough),

I wear a 29 in N&F Super Skinny, would getting the 29 Slim work after a hot soak? Read the fit guide and measured my fave pair and everything's about .5" larger except for the waist.

The waist on my pair with cone mills denim didn't stretch too much. I would have liked a size 28, but I can just barely wear the 29s without a belt. They aren't skinny jeans... they are about as fitted as they can be without restricting movement. I'm not in love with the Cone Mills denim. I'll probably pick up another pair in a few months in one of the Japanese denim selections.

I'm personally quite happy with the fit because they look good, and I can still go climbing or play frisbee in them if I don't have gym shorts in my car. I haven't soaked them yet.

Has anyone tried joes brixton slim and compared them with gustin?

Just one week until the Styleforum Meetup in San Francisco at the Gustin headquarters right downtown. Here is a link to the details:

Everyone is invited. Come on out see some great denim.

Help us out and RSVP in the Meetup thread so that we can get a good headcount.

I, unfortunately, had to re-sell both items I purchased from Gustin. I bought a medium OCBD and a pair of Japanese Standards in 32 regular....the shirt, as others have noted, fit like a small and the jeans were nice, but too similar in real life to my APC NS' in terms of color. I did find out that if I get another pair of jeans (holding out for Okayama Standards) I'd size up to 33 and possibly slim. Nice quality, all around, regardless.

I guess you're referring to the Natural Indigo2? Not the white, Miami Vice-esque jeans, lol.

 

[ericgereghty]

Nope, talking about the MV-esque naturals. Almost all of my denim is dark, so I'm trying it for a change of pace, and the red-white-blue ID line tugs at my inner Patriot.

There are at least 5 I'm hoping to get my hands on though...especially the Cone Black.

Seeing as the Natural Indigo 2's back, does anyone have any pictures/thoughts on them?

 

[mistawho]

I normally wear 31 in jcrew, banana republic, levis. Would that make me a 31 in Gustins?
