Denim Suggestions: My Next Pair

[GWHiZiTSPHiL]

Alright denim heads, I need your help. I'm still kinda new to this denim game and I started out with some Nudie Slim Jims, Levis 514 & 501 raw and BDG one-wash. My Jims are about 4 months old now but I'm already thinking about some other jeans that are interesting me for a decent price range.

At first I thought about APC because everyone seems to be raving about it, especially for the price of $140. Then I heard about Ande Whall and the stuff he does and how everyone likes that even more. I think I was sold on Ande Whall but then I see Iron Army jeans. Those of course are more expensive but I really like the way it's constructed and the stitching.

So here are my questions:

1) What can you tell me about Iron Army in terms of construction, quality, and fits?
2) I'm looking for the under $200 price range (aiming for around $150 though). Any recommendations?

I like the fit of Slim Jims, but I want something that doesn't hug my legs as much and is probably more high rise. A mix between a regular ralf and a slim jim?

Buy some Ande Whall Cougars, and then post some good pics for the rest of us (I'm not complaining about drizz's pics, but a little variety - including some side shots - is always good).

Seriously, Ande is the real deal, and a bit cheaper than Iron Army; of course, it's the stitching on the latter that turns me off, and if you dig it I'd say give 'em a closer look. You can call Kiya at Self Edge in SF, or Sam (I think?) at Context in Madison. I've yet to here anything bad about Iron Army, although I don't know if any of the regulars on here have them - you'll see them on SuFu from time to time.

Mine are due next weekish. Also, drizzt is a little more built than most of us here, so I'll be providing some size variety.

I'll try to post some shots as well. I'm expecting my Cougars like, right now. They were shipped Sunday before last, (my time. It was Monday his time I think. Dunno, time-shifts confuse me.) so I'm hoping they'll be waiting for me at home today or any day now.....

Iron army is a good jean and they are doing some things that are a little different.
YOu should try KMW.

so i guess im stuck between iron army and ande whall? i've been hearing really great things about ande whall. iron army is still kind of a mystery to me but judging by the model pics i like the fits of them and i kind of like jeans that are kinda loud but not really. at least have some personality to them.
