I just received my order of Five Pocket Field Canvas jeans from Duckhead


They look just as they appear online. Really nice jeans. Duckhead has an excellent,
easy to navigate, website which includes a Fit Chart. It is unfortunate that this chart
turns out to be grossly inaccurate in its' measurements. In my case, the posted 9 5/8
inch rise actually measures 11 1/4 -11 1/2 inches. Not a rounding error. The fit actually
reflects this. I am always amazed when vendors can't seem to get this straight. On balance,
I have been successful shopping online, especially for tailored clothing to my taste-
which, in any case, is not even available in my area. My latest acquisition from Sartoriale,
for example, only needed a minor sleeve alteration.
