Having trouble figuring out what sweatpants these are. I found this photo on Instagram but can't figure out what style or color they are. With the zipper in the back I would say they are escobars but the different color waistband. Anyone have any idea??

Likely Escobar in grey duo colorway? Kitos also have a zippered back pocket, not sure if they did a grey duo colorway in those

Hey bud - what size scarabs did you get? I received a size 31 last week, using that 20% off code, and i couldn't even button them. 32 (my normal size) was sold out, so I got a 33 coming today... worried they might be too big. I never have had JE denim...and honestly don't wear much denim at all. Most of my chinos and joggers are 32 though...just curious how others sizing is.
hey man - I went with size 33 scarabs. I originally tried the 32's but they were way too tight. 33 allows me to button them up and they are pretty fitted elsewhere. They do stretch though.

If you couldn't even button 31 then the 33 is probably fine for you.

New to the style forum. Very big John Elliott fan. I have some quick questions and announcements.

I previously bought the Carbon denim in a size 29. I then had them altered to a 6.25 hem. However there is very no room in the crotch (front rise) and I find it is difficult getting my phone out of the front pockets. I am looking to purchase another pair of the "raw denim" from the first cast jean delivery. However not sure whether to get a 29 or 30 due to the tightness in the crotch area. If anyone could help me out that would be greatly appreciated. To add the "care" instructions say to dry clean however, if i want the "raw denim" treatment should I follow normal raw denim protocol to get the fading results?

for sizing references I am roughly 5'11-6 and 150lbs.. Apc Petit New Standard sz30 and normal 31.5-32 waist size

I am looking for the nimbus, coast colorways as well or the odeon/spring/coast from the cast 2.

For those with the new season of denim, with my measurements given i believe a size 30 would be best?

I have also started a "John Elliott" facebook group for those interested to sell or share their new pickups!

So I traded my sz. 28 in the Mica Cast 2 to another SF member here and received a sz. 29. Does the Cast 2 Mica SAY Cast 2 on the tag or Cast? I received them with the tag, and it had the old pin-on tag, black John Elliott labeling, but says Cast Mica on the actual tag. Just don't want to have traded a newer pair of Cast 2 for an older Cast that fits differently. Thanks!

older casts were 100% cotton. look at the tag and see what it says.
