I also took advantage of the FWRD 15% off and got the FOG in sz large. Quick pic of the pants 6 ft 180

@marchus-chi aren't they all 3x1 stretch. On the site they are all listed as such unless they mean the actual denim company "3x1".

I think he’s talking about the track pants. They are polyester I think. Don’t have much stretch

I'm pretty positive they aren't all 3x1 stretch. Plumas for example do not list that in the details section. Those have some other poly cotton mix. I own Plumas, Harlots, Mr P destroyed, and Dillons that I know for sure aren't 3x1 cause they are way more stiff than the Obsidians and Skittles. I would never be able to squeeze into a 30 in those lol. If 3x1 stretch isn't what makes those two more stretchy then it's definitely something cause they give a lot more.

Agreed, nice touch. Will also buy some more tees from them

Pat is a class act. Speak to him often, even let me weigh in on color options going forward.

Uniqlo. Not quite ready to ball out on a real shearling coat

Selling my last pair of SLP denim! Going almost exclusively JE (aside from one slim TF). Fit is so much more comfortable. SLP still has them by a wide margin on the shirts though.

I have Nimbus Springs and Coasts. Undecided on my next. Hoping to pick some up with the PS code.

Did anyone else end up picking up the Ojardorf M65? They sent an email saying shipment is slightly delayed (Monday Tuesday). Excited to see how the fit looks. Thinking it likely won’t get to the states until early December though.

With all the talk of counting JE pieces earlier, I ended up counting my mine and taking some photos while doing laundry today. I've always been curious how many JE pieces I had. I ended up with 33 but recently sold off 4 pieces trying to downsize my closet. I pretty much rock a pair of cast 2, AE shirt, hoodie, and sneakers everyday.

I did get invited to the VIP Sale, which I think I deserve, but was kind of surprised considering the vast majority of my JE was not bought directly through them. On my list this Black Friday: Black Ebisu's, Flannels, and cheap hoodies.

Here is my current JE collection:

Debating on grabbing off the MR p sale and just returning if prices get better elsewhere, thoughts?

I still really like the Flash. Hoping that ends up in a flash sale. I want to pick up a Dark Navy.

I gotta say. This color is really nice. JE does navy very well.

Plumas are listed with 3x1.

But I agree they all don't feel the same in the stretch department.
My indigo pairs (Dillon, nimbus, coast 2, plumas, coba) have the least amount of give.
I think I have about 16 pairs of denim from JE and the stretchiest in terms of comfort are scarab, Skittles/pompeii, sashiko black and Alpine.

I think it's just the different cotton used in the denim because they don't have the same hand to them.

Got it. I missed that, but there's definitely something making the Skittles and Obsidians give more. Maybe just a thinner denim?
