Are the tails on the OCBDs long enough to tuck in for office wear??


The standard fit ones are (not tried the slim fit) - I'm 6'1" and don't have a problem.

Are they ever going to restock the dress pants online? Been a few months of low stock, need the pants to go with the jacket.

All sold out. They were indeed awesome.

They've also pulled the jackets from stores (only available online).

Is there any way to tell what year the reg oxford is? Since some people have been wanting the old fit oxfords I have some basically brand new ones in xsmall I'm willing to let go. Ranging from 2+ yrs ago and also some +J/UU ones too.

The stretch selvedge slim fit jeans are really good. So comfortable and the fit is spot on. Nice and roomy in the thighs with a taper that isn't too strong. I don't know why I ever buy designer jeans when these are just $50. I'm guessing the raw stretch selvedge denim won't fade a ton, but these are so much more comfortable than my APCs.

Anyone have any thoughts on the stretch selvage jeans, slim and/or skinny cut?


Not sure if it is bad luck - I have worn a pair of black stretch selvage slim cut jeans regularly for a few months (well, twice a week with a holiday in the middle where they got regular wear?), washed it a couple of times... And it just looks so ragged from that, it has aged noticeably (not just fading). I might have to donate it soon at this rate...

The Momotaro and Nudies I have also worn regularly recently have held up far better - obviously a big price difference with the former, but bought the latter on sale for usd50-60 which isn't too far away from uniqlo jeans.

Ymmv. I do like the stretch slim cut and they're comfortable, but feel like the denim quality is nowhere near the kaihara uniqlo jeans I bought a few years ago (which had good solid denim but not such a great cut in slim fit). So mixed feelings I suppose?
