^The SL-130x will be a little bit tougher to break in because the fabric is heavier and more rigid, but it will still stretch in the waist with wear.

Cannot overstate the awesomeness of the 30BSP/32BSP cut. If you have any sort of thighs and want a cut w/ a nice clean taper, these are it.

I have them both, and the cut is so good. Needless to say fabric and fabrication are excellent as well.

How tall are you? Cuz I too love my 30BSP's but find that the taper below the knee isn't quite as strong as I would like. I wonder if this is cuz my legs are pretty short (28" inseam) and thus the taper really kicks in below my knee and the tighter leg opening is lost due to them being hemmed a good 6-7"...

You may own the first run of them. The cut has a far stronger taper from the second run of the jean on.

Oh, interesting. I bought them at the end of August (2014) from your shop in the LES. My guess is they're likely from a recent run since the 30BSP's have been around for a while & seem to sell quite well. But maybe you guys still had stock from the first run?

Yup, sounds like you own the newest run of them.

I saw Kiya's post, which was my first thought but I think you probably hit the nail on the head.

Hello, I want to buy the heavyweight plain t shirt (2 pack) . How much are these going to stretch with use?

I always buy snug fit t shirts because after some use the t shirts always stretch and get bigger, but those are cheap regular t shirts.

I've got the t's in white, navy, and grey, and none of mine have stretched even a little bit (worn and washed at least a dozen times). In fact, I'd say they've shrunk ever so slightly (even though I wash cold and lay flat to dry), but not enough to change sizing. These are some seriously well-built, sturdy t-shirts...
