You have a valid point. I know it is annoying when you get 20 people in a thread saying "When will I get mine?" or some online equivalent of "Are we there yet?" but the threads are easily avoided and I for one like the excitement if not always the expression of it.

The jeans just arrived at my office! Thanks to the crew at Farinellis for shipping them out express to me.

What do you think? Take them to a window if you are not near one. I think they look even better in good lighting. Which is a shame really because I think I look better in poor lighting. So I have to find a way to get my jeans in good light and my face in a shadow to really pull this jean off.

Don't know about that, for me it looks like it's updated to the minute, pretty impressive actually.

hey guys-

all of the orders are boxed and as long as usps doesn't **** me over by not showing up for the scheduled pick up you should be seeing them real soon.

after making sure everyone who ordered one got theirs it looks like we've got a few left, so here's what we still have in stock:

Size 30- 4 pair
Size 31- 1 pair
Size 32- 2 pair
Size 34- 8 pair
Size 36- 2 pair

all of those are gonna be available in the online store, so head on over there if you missed out!

I faked. Those are Cheap Monday 28x34 YD Black Dry's from Tobi's 30% off sale. I'm surprised no one called me out, though! Here are the real deals...

I like them a lot. I got sz 29 for the 31.5" waist and can sag them a bit. Don't pay too much attention to the 28 waist on the CM's. The straight and regular cut CM's are like 3.5 inches vanity sized. Many jeans are far less generous in the thighs than these. Slim, not skinny, sounds very accurate. These really fit the bill for me as a formal jean. I might actually join the contest if I wear them to work every day.

mauro, you knocked the ball out of the ******* park with these! they're lightweight, fit beautifully, and are pretty much perfect. btw, i got #6h lol
