find these intriguing.

simply don't need any new denim, but can't help myself from a new purchase. It's either these or the broken twill Left Fields from B&G.

If nothing else, the Left Fields will likely win out b/c of B&G free chainstitching.

any opinions on the Tellasons?

dont have an opinion on tellasons but left fields are nice. the hue of the blue is really versatile.

Leydon last, commando sole. For business casual work and more casual settings? Don't currently own any boots.

I really want a pair of denim with an indiglo dyed weft; PBJ xx-009s are the best fit for me. I am 1 month into a pair of overdyed IH BBs though

i was actually talking to astronaut, but i think you should go with the kanes. those would be my choice at least.

astronaut, on second look. i would totally go with the left fields. i'de go for the slub's though not the broken twill, but thats only because i prefer heavier denim.

if you end up ever getting PBJs, be advised not to size down no matter what anybody says. odds are they will fit perfect in the waist, but the calves/thighs will be overly constricting. i know from experience

true to size would of been perfect for me, but then again i have 007s not the 009s.

the 009s are pretty large in the knee area so you can size down on them pretty easily. For my body type, a 8.5 knee is borderline too skinny for me. I pretty much size my jeans based on thigh and knee measurements. The waist can stretch or be protected by a belt usually (within reason

Commes de Garcons Shirt Seeksucker shorts with elastic waistband...sorry can't find a pic. What's the quality of the Shirt line? Appears it's somewhere between the Homme Plus and junk brand Play...Shorts look good but not familiar enough with the lines to know if "Shirt" is just another APC.

Do it kit99bar. You won't regret it. I love my 009s. Sizing down on them was no issue whatsoever. I did size down on the 007s too and they worked fine for a long time, until I started doing squats again. Hence the 009 purchase.

But yes.
