Is the elastic only in the back?

Yes, only the back portion of the waist is elasticated. The front half is not, and sits flat and normal.

An interesting part of measuring these was the amount of stretch on each pair - as the waist got bigger, the elastic portion of it was also larger, so the stretch was more. The smallest size only stretches a total of 4" in the waist, while the largest size (which has almost twice as large an elastic portion" was stretching a full 8" at its maximum. It all makes sense, like it's not surprising, but I do think it's neat!

Awesome, thank you!

Anytime!

Cool, just trying to figure out if these can fit in with my aesthetic

Why is this post coming so late in the day? I'll tell you why, because on Wednesday, right before I was going to begin my many hours of product photography for our new Warehouse delivery, the power went out at our Oakland shop. Figures that the first moderately rainy day of the season would knock out power for our entire neighborhood for almost 12 hours.

Power went down at 10:48am and did not return until 10:05pm, so we cleaned the store, measured a bunch of stuff and then went home. So Wednesday was basically a wash, very unfortunate.

Fortunately, I take my job very seriously and hate missing deadlines, so I've been hustling and grinding to get all this new Warehouse out today - something you can all now plainly see that I have succeeded at.

Check out all this dang Warehouse! We've got Warehouse x RMFB vests (these are very limited, and available before the rest of our RMFB release next week, so get them while they're hot), new Lot 1001XX Jeans, and so many tee shirts.

I'm just gonna drop a few photos and link to the full collection, because I'm still behind NO THANKS TO YOU, PG&E. Click on a photo to see the full delivery, then click on an item to read more about it.

Thinking the same. Sure it’s another piece of olive outerwear, but it’s got a great tone, feels more wearable?
this particular makeup is pretty dope too, what with the Horsehide yoke and all. I currently don’t have any olive outerwear so it seemed like a no brainer to me. If you have a lot of olive, it may seem redundant, but I think with a piece this spendy you almost want max versatility unless you just got millions of dollars to throw at jawnz. Which I don’t
