Gustin Jeans Selvage Denim made in SF

[GriffDeLaGriff]

So a sum up of my Gustin stuff:

Indigo/Indigo slim - got them
The Slate straight - has shipped
Grey OCDB - sent back
Red navy gingham - has shipped
Grey ember flanell - ships in november
Simple wallet saddle brown - got it
Classic belt - got it (bought from Butte)

I had a Heavy Japan almost done deal but the person selling them changed his mind in the last minute. Since the indy/indy wont give me what I want, Im looking for another pair of darker blue jeans to fade. The Okayamas looks good but too much cross-streaks for me.

You want some Gustins? You want $20 off? Well please allow me to give you $20 on your first Gustin purchase (and when you do, I get $20 off on my next purchase)

Griff. No Okayama? They look sweet. Can't wait.

 

[GriffDeLaGriff]

Yeah......... i love the blue fadecolor but really dont like the streaks.......a shame...they look incredible apart from that.

The streaks had me hesitate at first too. We'll see. Hoping they're not too crazy
Btw, if you want to expedite the aging of the belt, put some Pecards on it. It will darken and start to "brown" some.

Scott, did you go with the straight or slim jeans? I would be interested in hearing others' experience who have both straight or slim and can contrast differences in fit and how the two feel differently when worn. My first Gustin (#19 the American) should arrive tomorrow. Theoretically speaking, I needed a size 37 but had to go with a 38 since 37 is not made by Gustin, and 36 would likely be too tight. I did run my numbers through Gustin's customer service that advised 38 rather than 36 in my case. For what it's worth, I have found their customer service to be helpful, polite, and timely.

Richard. I got straights. I'm relatively trim, but I don't like "skinny" jeans. I would be willing to try some slims since their prices are reasonable. Maybe someone here might have both and can comment.

How are the Gustin straights vs the 316 straights?

Can't compare fairly as those didn't fit me well. I think those had a narrower cuff opening.
I love these Gustins man. Bestest jeans I've had. More on the way. I love the 36" inseams.

 

[Boyo]

I love the 36" inseams.

And that's my only gripe... I would love the option of a shorter inseam... I have to send them to NYC to have a chain stitched hem put on..at $25 a clip

I'd feel bad except I'm so sick of a lifetime of too-small clothes that I have to relish the long length.

You've got to be kidding! We almost never get stuff in our sizes. Look at Gustins shirts. Nothing even close to my size, let alone a guy like Worfman.

Saw this over on Reddit, and thought it would be of interest to Loungers. Looks like Gustin is considering a loomstate denim from Japan. http://www.reddit.com/r/rawdenim/comments/1oqqm7/loomstate/

I know I'm excited.

I got the Heavy Japans (15oz) from their Kickstarter in 32 Straight. Beautiful fabric, but unfortunately the waist is too small for me.
Let me know if anyone's interested.

Interesting. Thanks
And he's right- "unlike most retailers who are standoffish with consumers, we are open with consumers and transparent with how and why we design"
I can't remember how many companies I've written to only to never get an answer. The notable exception being Japanese and the very small entrepreneur companies.

I just ordered the natural denim. I've ordered a belt and two shirts, but this is my first pair of jeans from Gustin.

I'm gonna ask a novice denim question: how does loomstate denim differ from other types? What is the particular attraction of unsanforized denim?

Got my slates in straight yesterday. I didnt like the fit, they are too baggy compared to the indy slims. I hotsoaked them. Lets see if it helped.

In the meantime the Naturals are back!!!!!!

I got a pair.
