Yeah nimbus only gets hate on the tightness. The washed is amazing. Just fits super snugged.

Can any of you guys attest to the Obsidians level of stretch? I'm a first time JE cast 2 buyer - I'm 6'5 210 lbs and usually wear a 36 but was hoping these would have a little stretch to them. Have had 2 escobars in size Large and they stretch to fit perfectly. I know you can't return or exchange sale items but the money off is so appealing for someone like me looking for a long inseam slim legged stretch denim. All info woud be much appreciated!

If you want a pant with stretch go with carbons. Obsidians are good, but tend to bag out in the waist and knees with moderate wear, but aren't "stretchy" and feel more raw than anything

If only they had the carbons in a 36 or 38! Thanks for the info. That being said, do you think they'd still have more stretch/movement than my iron hearts? The older I get the more I need pants to actually move with my body, not against me Lol

I'm kind of disappointed so far...
Also I guess they must've loaded the discounts way earlier because ANYTHING that I would have gotten wasn't even available in my size from 11AM sharp dude..

Has anyone bought or seen the Kopper Cast 2 in person and can give a review? I'm surprised they haven't dropped on JE website yet.

Would be wild if 30% does not apply to exclusives. Looks like JE is going that route though.

Yeah I am not expecting much as far as the discount. Not sure I’m expecting much out of the products either lol.

They will definitely have more movement than your Iron hearts - those things are built to last

You should be fine, especially getting them on sale!

Seriously, they'll most certainly outlive me lol. Do the obsidians last/hold up well? Appreciate all the info, most likely going to pull the trigger since they're the cheapest I've seen
