I'm probably not going to buy another pair of jeans for awhile as I've gotten quite a few lately.

That said, it's always good to plan for the future, so I'm thinking:

PBJ-XX-005

Ande Whall Grifter

SEXIH01 or whatever it's called, the indigo one.

S5000VX

Basically I'd like a straight leg, slim (but not extremely tight) jean that is a very dark indigo and doesn't fade easily.

Thoughts?

How about something natural indigo? I hear they don't get the same kind of contrast that you would with synthetic, who knows though.

I hear 45rpm hold their color pretty well. Those SEXIH look nice, but at $400, only 100 pairs made, in store only, and no reserves? I dunno...

Yeah, well I'm not too worried about getting them because my size isn't the most popular among SF ppls in S&D heh, but one has to wonder how the fit is and whether they're a good deal when there are so many alternatives.

whatever my next pair, I want to be able to try them on first

PBJ might happen, as I'll be in soho in march.

Ande Whall sure has a lot of fans, and looks good on them

Yeah, Ande Whall is definitely the most affordable of my options so I may check them out, they definitely look dark and don't fade much which satifisies most of my criteria and I also like the rise.

Perhaps you'll want my SC40300N natural indigo Okinawas if they don't fit me, drizz.. I think we're pretty close in size; they're a 36". Hopefully they do fit.

I'd go with the PBJs or the Grifters - hear a lot of good things about the latter on the other SF.

Aren't the SC40300 a really high rise? I'm kinda looking for a low rise jean this time around. I sent Andy an email about Grifters, might as well get the ball rolling...

I sent Andy an email about the Grifters and Cougars... I'll probably settle for the Cougars since I'm not a stick like the rest of you buggers.

i think the 40300n is a good option for you; you don't have natch indigo and no LEE repros, so this should really do double duty for you; the satokibi sugar canes are really special IMO

I love my PBJs and they are definitely low rise... especially since you want to wear them off your hips (to help with it being snug around the crotch).

I guess I can't get Grifters in my size so I ordered a pair of Cougars. I know ppl were looking to see how they looked like so I'll post pics once I get them.
