must have fell out before you shipped it anyhow don't worry about it at least i see you did try to send them like i asked. instead of ignoring the request. i did look everywhere first before i asked you though.

yea though i was only a little bothered at first because i was thinking man you pay $400+ for some denim and they don't even do simple requests lol.

I have a 3sixteen straight leg in black in 34 and it fits me great. The only problem is that it is around 1" loose in the waist though it fits perfectly in all other respects.

I was thinking of getting the 3sixteen+ 10BSP in 33 in indigo but they are out of stock in my size.

As an alternative I am now thinking of getting the Skull 5507 in 32.

Any thoughts how the fit of the 5507 compares to the 3sixteen straight leg ? Do you consider 5507 to be low rise jeans or more of a mid rise one ?

Thanks for your comments

The 5507 is a mid-rise straight leg jean, i'd say there's a hair more room in the 5507 than the 10BSP, but if you size down down you should have a very similar fit.

i thought i was imagining things so i went to a tailor to have the 634sb inseam measured seems like one side is hemmed to the length i asked but the other side is a little under inch longer lol. guess i only noticed this more because it was a straight cut and no matter how i wore them one side of the leg looked baggier than the other no matter what.

so i thought i was going crazy. pay $400 for some nice denim off a nice reputable site but don't even get them hemmed correctly -__-;;.

I am curious and I hope you are not taking it in the wrong way, can one of you legs be longer than the other? If one inseam is indeed longer than the other, it could compound the problem. PM Kiya and I am sure he will work it out with you.

So you needed to take these to a tailor to determine if one leg inseam was a full 1" longer than the other??

i'm not mad about it. i was saying i only even noticed it because its my first pair of straight cut i've been only buying tapered or jeans with really small leg opening. so even if any of my jeans was uneven i wouldn't notice because it would just stack. the leg opening on these makes it so it doesn't stack at all for me because probably my calves are too skinny. so it just keeps looking like bootcut.

i actually measured them myself the first time but since i was going to the tailor to get some shirts fixed i brought them so she could check.

i've been buying what maybe my last 5 pairs from gordon but i wanted to give ironhearts a try i do like them i'll probably just have them hemmed again but this time in person lol.
