makes sense. The recent Raw releases (not today’s) seem to have a slightly wider leg opening as well. Worth trying if you like any of the colors.

I can't speak for size 28 or the past Cast 2 releases but I own the most recent Indigo and Obsidian Raws in size 31 and the leg opening is perfect for Jordan 1's and high tops.

As far as these new Cast 1, I'm really feeling the Fuse and Shale, do need a grey colored denim. Also the measurements looks nice for us thicker thigh/calf guys and the leg opening (hem) looks to be pretty good. For $300 I may give it a shot and see how it goes, could always return.

Unfortunately it looks like they went from 5.8 to 5.9 which doesn't help too much. My old Nero's and Zincs were marked at 6 which is just barely enough, have been wanting to try something a little looser I think the Cast 1 cut might be perfect at 6.4. Hopefully that cut is here to stay with more washed options or a non-raw black.

Yeah my 28 in obsidians has a 5.8 hem vs 6.2 on the 31. That .4 would be major for me lol. Just not a fan of the look of high tops tucked into the shoe or behind the tongue.

The measurements we posted this morning were an error, they were measuring ~ 2" larger int he waist than each size actually is. Our apologies. The rest of the measurements are correct.

Yeah, for sure. I'm the same as you in terms of how I want my jeans to sit on my sneakers. .4 is definitely a big difference lol, may not look much on paper but it is in reality.

Picked up both black pairs to try. Hoping to get a few colors if they fit/work. Gawd i wish I could just go try **** on at the store.
Right. Jealous of anybody who can go check out the new stuff in store and try it on. No love here in the Midwest. Cleveland or Chicago are the only places with accounts near me.

I stopped by Kith in SoBe yesterday and they didn't have any JE in-stock. I was told UNKNWN is opening their flagship store in Wynwood next month.

You guys got it good. Imagine being in Canada and having to pay $50-100 in duties on top of $40 shipping on a purchase. Follow this up by an additional $40 to return ship if a size doesn't work out :rotflmao:
OOOF. Brutal.

Stupid Converse cancelled my order due to non matching billing/shipping. If anyone can order for me and ship to my US address. I’m in Canada but have a US shipping due to living close to the border. Got tons of references and been on here since the beginning. Will send you some extra funds for your time/help as well. Thanks fellow stans
