Emailed JE about the inseam being shorter on Nimbus compared to other washes. The response was all pairs of Nimbus are shorter... Can JE just get an accurate size guide for the different washes :confused2:
This happened to me with some scarabs way back when they first released. I now just assume some washes will be shorter than others so I pay attention to the stacks on the models

Just got my first ever pair of JE denim (Nimbus) in and one of the rivets on the pockets had come off. It doesn't make sense to return from Canada (due to high shipping costs & the fact that they are sold out in my size) but I'm gonna contact CS and see if they can do anything.
Other than that I love the fit and wash. I also wasn't expecting the softness of the denim.

This happened to me with the denim shorts from season 7 in Washed Black. Crotch came ripped, and rivet(s) were missing. Super disappointed, don't recall whether or not I let CS know.

If you bought from JE and it was defective they should give you a return label to send it back

How's the small fit you in the shoulders? You and I are about the same size and I've been wanting that flannel, but I've always thought I'd need a medium in it.

Shoulder fit is on point for me. I usually take small is most JE shirts with the exception of some tees like the AE, OS pocket & the new Rugby.

Yea I mean I get it, sometimes **** slips by when picking, packing, and shipping these orders. Your case sounds a lot worse than mine.

Their customer service is just a bit lacking with what options are available in these mishaps. I mean they made me take a picture of how I was measuring the inseam only to respond with, "all of the restocked Cast 2 Nimbus will be this length." Cool? So I guess exchanging for a pair that actually measures 34" is out of the question. In that case, I either quit my bitching and be happy with them or return them.

Anyway rant over, I can dream of a day that JE measures each wash of their denim. Until then I'll deal with their "slight variances."

Just saw a Medium Rider's Jacket posted up on Grailed if anyone is interested. F/W15 maybe? I'm not extremely familiar with the leather pieces as they're not my thing.

Edit - Didn't realize you apparently can't link to Grailed on here
Thanks for the plug.. that's my rider. I'm 5'11 180 and a medium is too snug for me around the chest. I'm a medium in tees, but in between sizes on flannels and overshirts. Picked up a Blackmeans rider in large, which should hopefully help get me to actually wear the jacket.

The jacket on Grailed is in very good condition with limited wears.. thought I priced it cheap too.. $850.
