Hi all,

I've got two pairs of FHs (BSP and F310) and I'm in love with them. I really want another and am contemplating the heavier weight F2001. Can anyone attest to its fit and feel? I can't find too much info on this model beyond what's listed on Self Edge's site. How do they wear over time? Are they too stiff? Etc..

Thanks in advance!

The fabric is essentially a heavier weight version of the F310/SE05BSP fabric, believe it or not it actually ages a lot like the 14.5oz version of the denim over time. Their intention wasn't to make a different fading fabric but instead to just make a heavier weight version of their flagship denim.

Cool. Is the fit the same? According to the measurements on your site I should be going down a size on these. Are they pretty slim/tapered?

The fit is very close to the F310. The denim doesn't shrink as much as the F310/SE05BSP denim though, so if you have some room in your F310 you can size down if you'd like.
