CM Approved Jeans - Group Buy

[WillingToLearn]

I just measured my 2 favorite makes of high(er) rise jeans. For a 34 waist:

Back rise: 16" on one, 17" on the other, i think meeting in the middle would work well
Front rise: 11" on both
Thigh: 12-12.5" inches at 3 inches below the crotch on both
Length: 34.5"-35" inseam post-wash on both
Leg opening: 7.5"-8" on both - 7.0" is too small, 8" perhaps just a hair large

Thanks! For reference, what jeans are they?

Still only at 13 people who expressed interest... any ideas on how to get this to a wider audience?

Advertise to the SW&D forum? I know this is meant for CM types but they might be interested too. Other than that, maybe menswear groups that you are a member of on Facebook or wherever.

Bump to keep this alive!

Next week I'm going to try and get fabric swatches for some of the potential options.

 

[Caustic Man]

I’ll look forward to it.

If the rise is high, yes, subject to actual dimensions being posted before order.

Hi guys

There are two 12oz selvage fabrics from Isko with available stock for our order. Here are the scans of the raw swatches. I've requested two more swatches of eacf, one rinsed and one with a short stone wash so we can see how they wash down.

I'm still interested in this, FYI. FWIW, I like the second swatch.

Here are the two swatches washed down, pretty similar characteristics.

Guys, hope thanksgiving went well! These fabrics are both nice, but they have limited stock - any others interested?

I'm still interested pending some measurements.

I'm still interested pending some measurements.

The intent is for us to create this jean in the fit that we want. Some others have offered their suggested measurements for sizes 32/34. I wear size 28 so that won't really help. If you can provide your ideal measurements we can consolidate them. Or, we can take the measurements from an existing fit, like something from Orslow, and see if the group likes that.

FWIW, I also like the Samurai S710 fit. It's medium rise with a slight taper.

710 isn’t bad. I’d need more room in the thighs, something like 13” thighs on a 33 (or whatever size will measure 34”), taper to like 7.5” or a hair under.

I've worked out a size grading based on the previous comments. Please take a look and let me know what you think.
