I had to order a few pairs after my order got messed up and was glad I did in the end. I ended up getting the 33" Tagged (35" Waist) after originaly ordering the tagged 35" or something like that.
Worth going and trying a pair on, or ordering 2 sizes. The normal styles are all 34" leg as well which is annoying, the new 601's are 32". Going to try some on next week and hopefully cop

talking of acne…anyone tried their new line bla konst?
i'm kinda pissed that they discontinued the ace model which i loved…the counterpart 'North' looks way wider on the pics.
haven't tried them yet though.

Since I started cycling even more I no longer fit in any of my jeans and they're all too skinny anyway. Don't want 15 oz slub, I'm over APC, Acne is a bit shit and overpriced. What shall I buy? Orslow good or is it just hype?

Orslow are really nice and are a good compromise imo. Typical Japanese very good quality and attention to details but much more practical and ready to wear compared to the more hardcore Japanese denim makers. A bit more fashion, it that makes sense, compared to those others.
I have quite big thighs and the 107s fit nice. Got a 3 and even though my waist is 32 and sholud have got a 2, which was way too skinny on my thighs and upper part in general

Anyone comment on Spellbound denim? Sounds like high quality Japanese denim, but can't find a huge amount of info about it apart from the pretty generic descriptions on the few stockists I could find.

^ Spellbound do some pretty decent denim and and if not buying raw the washes are never over the top. If I'm right they're owned by Domingo Co. who also produce Omigod which are also worth checking out.

Best place to get some pockets replaced? Looking for thick heavy duty cotton canvas. Had them redone from the local Turks and they last a month each time.

how do dickies work pants fit on the waist compared with apc/acne?
18 Jul 2017 20:36
No idea about APC/Acne.
874/873 are true to actual waist size. I am 32" in almost anything that isn't vanity sized and take the same for these.
872 are larger by an inch. I take 31" here.

Is Melvin still going at misterhandydenim? site down. Need someone who can darn denim as well as strengthen some areas with fabric.

I emailed him back in Feb and he said he was still doing it, never got round to actually using him though. Decided denim doc was a much easier option.
