Is there a heavier jean that you would recommend? I'm looking for something that would be ok for winter when its in the 30 degrees areas. I have some flathead f380's and those are the closest for heavier warmer denim but isn't cutting it. Similar cut that is between the f380 and sugar cane 1966 would be good.

Iron Heart 634s is the way to go.

Well, fit in regards to me being taller and slimmer (6'2", 190), fading properties, and how will they hold up? My Nudies have all ripped in the crotch..

Are the 3sixteen+ 20BSP going to be restocked soon? If they are, should I go with a size 30? My waist size is around 31.5

Self Edge x Imperial = SEXI14

Imperial, our sole brand from Australia, comes back with another jean made for lovers of slim cuts. This is a further interpretation of the slim centimeter cut, this time tweaking the silhouette a bit to match up to the 18cm fit. This fit isn't necessarily slimmer than the last collaboration we did with Imperial, it's just a little different in it's shaping.

We've had Imperial produce this collaboration jean in Japan, whereas their regular jeans are made of Japanese fabrics but cut and sewn in Australia. The denim is a 15oz unsanforized selvedge fabric that's a super loose weave available in both indigo and black, both are sure to age very well considering the texture of the denim and the loomstate nature of the fabric. The denim was woven in Okayama and the jean was cut and sewn within minutes of the denim mill.
The denim has a very unique feel to it, it's abrasive at first but definitely not very rigid due to the lack of starch. The belt loops are rolled for sturdiness, the pack pockets are riveted, and the inside pocket bags are screened.

The SEXI14 & SEXI14BK jeans will be released at Self Edge San Francisco, Self Edge New York, and Self Edge Los Angeles at Noon (Local Time) on Saturday, December 11th.
The jeans will also be available online at 10am (PST) the same day in the online store.

I am considering getting a pair of Self Edge x Dry Bones x Superfuture x Styleforum as my first good pair of jeans. How exacly do I chose size? I am slim at 6'2'' and 140 pounds.

Should I be following instructions in this post http://www.styleforum.net/showthread.php?t=68358 ? What kind of result can I expect with these jeans after heavy wear?

you can use these as measuring tips: http://blueingreensoho.com/site/inde...tent&task=view


Really make sure you are measuring jeans that truly fit you snug and that you get the correct waist measurement. Measure the waist with a measuring tape, don't just look at the tagged size, as that can be deceiving - you may think your true waist is a certain size and it's not. All I'm saying is that if you are ordering online get it right. At 6'2" with the 3" shrinkage in inseam you can probably get away with not hemming these, assuming you want to cuff them or get some good stacking.

butyeah i know what you mean. i want both as well but dont have enough hours in the day two focus on two sick jeans haha. chose the dbs cuz i had the sexdbs09 and they were amazing in fit, construction, and fades. i regret selling those now that im getting the db 2.0 ... woulda been nice to have both in a little collection.

but regardless, the patch on the imperials is really awesome though
