I noticed that the 12oz duck canvas pair that I have feels heavier than a 12oz pair of jeans.. why is that? Does the density of the weave have something to do with how it feels heavier?

My Zimbs nearly got me a handjob from TSA at Logan today. Went through the back scatter machine and the agent told me that it was instructing him to give me an extra pat down where he didn't want to. Showed me the screen and it had a big yellow splotch over my crutch! Starchy denim? Button fly? #bigdickproblems He told me to "adjust my jeans" and go back through. Clear the second time. I at least got the awesome emergency exit row seat. Could this be the reason.. From the article above.. According to law enforcement reports obtained during the CBS4 investigation, a male TSA screener told a female colleague in 2014 that he “gropes” male passengers who come through the screening area at DIA.
“He related that when a male he finds attractive comes to be screened by the scanning machine he will alert another TSA screener to indicate to the scanning computer that the party being screened is a female. When the screener does this, the scanning machine will indicate an anomaly in the genital area and this allows (the male TSA screener) to conduct a pat-down search of that area.”

I wear 32 slims in Gustins and had earlier ordered the loomies in 34 Slim.. Worked out perfect for me after a soak as they fit very similar to the 32 slims now. Based on my experience earlier, I ended up ordering the Zoomies in 34 Slim

Question.. Does duck canvas stretch in the waist with wear like jeans do?

Hey mowgli, is that the 901 or the 905 or a tweak of one or the other? I put in my first order with CF about a week ago, but haven't seen many fit pics of the 901 which I chose. These are the 901 Slim fit in size 31. The only spec that I changed was asked Ciano to take the waist down 0.5".

Here are a few pictures of my 12oz Duck chinos after a soak. Love the fabric.. The pants are very comfortable though thick and the construction is amazing.. Ciano is the man.. I think white shirts pair well this this shade of brown. What other color shirts do you think work with this color? I am still waiting on my dark brown Duck..

exophobe These are the weird guy fit.. Just measured the waist again and I got 16 5/8" but not quite 16 3/4". I however think it should stretch a little with wear..

Quick question about the IH fits. What is the closest fit to the Gustin Slim fits? 666?

Anybody here back this project on Kickstarter? I have backed for a couple pairs as they seem to be very well made with a fairly heavy fabric (9.5 oz), double reinforced crotch, quality hardware and made here in the US. Also they have had successful Kickstarter projects in the past making jeans. Just to be clear, I am not in any way related to this company. Just found them on Kickstarter and thought I'd post here as they seem to be on par or better than the Gustin chinos at about the same price.. I just wish the price was a little lower and they had more discounts if you backed multiple pairs. Here is the size guide from the comments sections for anybody interested. Sophisticated design (Modern Classic) 3-Ply fabric (280 gram) 100% cotton twill Double reinforced crotch (No more crotch "blow out" ) Military grade antique copper buttons Military grade antique copper rivets Heavy duty zipper Tucked belt loops Double tacked on all stress points Hidden coin pocket Made in America A
