I was tempted to just go with a standard Bass Weejun, but I legitimately don't know how good Weejuns' leather and build quality is. Is it actually serviceable or is it genuinely intolerable?
Here are a couple of Weejuns pics. It might help with your decision. I picked these up on eBay for $40.

Casalantic really has been the best pants for me for OTR. The kicker is that they come in various inseams and 30" works out great--no alterations necessary. I can cuff for no break, or leave as is for small break. My only gripe is after a day of wear, sometimes I can get really bad rashes around the waist band. Am I wearing it wrong or my skin is just super sensitive?

The next foray is trying their shirts and knits.

Tangentially, I wish there was a jean maker in the same vein. Perhaps a tad lower rise, but same cut and option for different inseam lengths. I may just end up ordering the blue pants, too, as a substitute. Now I have green, brown, and white.

I think dieworkwear put them on my radar at first, nice!

I still cannot get behind button front for pants besides denim, and prefer zip front. But I have to say their other styles with the pleats look great, too.

Their only zip front is El Jadida. Check out their fit guide, which is excellent.


BTW, very fast shipping.

Preferring zip flies is so weird to me, do you really want a crotch tent when you're sitting down that badly?

Is Canoe Club no longer got an active thread? That's lame.

I was about to ask if the Denver Airport to Boulder bus was alright. I'm on a tight schedule need to get to Canoe Club kop some rare jawnz then be back in Denver for Andre's flute set at the opera house. I'll have 3 large suitcases on me because I'm a big traveler.

Speaking of, the Margaret Howell store is one of the few places that I always go to when I visit Florence. It's here, in a Plaza that directly overlooks the river, beside an apothecary and a stationary store. Lot's of good shops of various types all within a couple of blocks there:
