I’m gonna sound crazy for saying this, but the washed Tenner jeans are basically what I wanted from Orslow’s 105 and 107 but could never really get.

Please share more. I’ve gone through the same process from 107 to 105 as I got ****** and even though the 105 is praised across the board I still found it slim and not at all straight.

Just ordered the 101 Dads Fit to see if that would work but curious how the Tenner solves the issues for you. What’s your Orslow size ve Tenner size?

If I missed out on the Lamar coat online pre-orders, is it worth reaching out to see if there are some available in the studio? I vaguely remember reading in this thread you can reach out to see if there’s studio availability for some items. Thanks 🙏
There is limited studio stock of the melton lamars. They are not included in the sale though. Would reach out to CS if you are interested.

Is it crazy that a team of product obsessed designers with 20 years of experience making incredible product would make fantastic denim? The answer is no. Our jeans are really, really good.

Nice
I missed those
Really wanted the dark denim but wasn’t sure of the sizing due to them being raw?
Glad to hear for future reference

I owned the 107, sold it, tried the 105 at a local store and wasn’t crazy about it. Calling the 107 a slim fit is generous, it’s straight up skinny; the 105 is slim. Haven’t tried the 101 Dad fit or 100 Super Dad fit but I’ve been told by friends who’ve tried it that both are still kinda tapered, just more relaxed in the thigh. The Tenner on the other hand might be the truest straight fit I’ve tried on a pair of jeans to date, they’re just relaxed enough in the thigh without being baggy and go straight down with almost no taper. Super satisfying to wear.

I take a 2 in Orslow jeans and I’m a size S in almost everything 18 East that I own.

They’re raw but not STF, they won’t shrink assuming cold wash and hang dry which is what I did with my raw Saph jeans. If anything, the wash gives them a little bit more natural stretch so they become a tad looser in the waist.

Thanks. You might want to try on the 100 Super Dad if you got a chance. I tried it on and found it too baggy. It's also the straightest cut I've tried on. That's why I order the 101 hoping for some compromise in the middle

Once I make my way through my raw denim I currently have, 18East Raw Denim is like the most exciting thing to me. The Saph looks great.

Also, I take an XXL in many pants, took an XL in my first pair of Gorecki, felt loose-ish on the waist.... sized down to an L for the sale — I know, controversial — but i really like that fit too in a black fabric. Such versatile amazing fabric forward stuff.
