Just got the Jet Cast 2 in.

I’ll allow others to take pics because I don’t have the mirrors or lighting in place to do these any justice. I really think these will only be showcased effectively outside in real light.

Anyway, observations are as follows:

1. Extremely sticky out of the box. Had to pull the pants apart to separate the legs.

2. They have a shine to them but it’s not like the lookbook pics people were afraid of. Maybe the sun will change that though..?

3. These are absolutely TTS JE sizing. They have a stretchy feel just like Carbons, but with more stack, and the waist is actually easier to button on first wear.

I like these more than Obsidians for sure. Time will tell how they hold up to Carbons, as those are by far my favorite JE denim.

Copped Avalon thumper and indigo flannel. Two most coveted pieces for me this season. Pics to come. Interested in the khaki cord shirt as well. Anyone happen to grab one from ssense yet?

Post pics of just the jeans ? I’m interested in these but will wait on stretch / bagging out feedback.
