Yea WATCH out...I disputed mine weeks ago. Got a refund for 3 items I ever got. BUT TODAY they processed those 3 orders again! Charged again! Now, I go to the website to get their contact info....site is down. Just emailed them. Insane. Did you actually get charged or did you receive the emails with order confirmations that don't actually include card info? Good question,,,,same thing happened to me. Cancelled order emails show up,today as new orders...wtf. Even for LD this is ridiculous. Now I have to check with card co once again

I'm going to be in Italy next month. I'm going to try and play a game: see if I can find an Italian made sneaker equal to the gustin price or lower. I'm betting it can be done with ease...

they are super nice. really surprised with them. i think they'll be offered for sale - seems like the workshop stuff always is. Usually not too long after orders start getting in, it'll pop up. hopefully in time for summer......i hesitated on these when workshopped and regretting it now

My I x I also came in today. Haven't had time to try them on or do any detailed inspection but they have good construction but not spectacular.
The fabric is good but nowhere near say the recent #166 from gustin. My concern is the front rise came in a full half inch shorter and the length about three quarters of an inch shorter. I'll have more details in the next day or so but the rise may be a deal breaker as I prefer a long rise for my older body.
I will say the patch is pretty cool. At the price point one should not complain....

Used my new gustin bottle opener last night...works flawlessly and more importantly fits a standard bottle

Yep, that describes Stantons perfectly. I actually like the inverse, G Straight upper with G Slim lowers, which is pretty much Railcar's Spike fit. Both cost more of course, but available immediately and have some nice touches that G doesn't offer. Sounds like Spikes are my perfect fit. I need G slims to have a higher rise, roomier seat and thighs. Ive been toying with the idea of springing for a pair of spikes myself....however since im pushing 50 i think i should be more in the full count heritage cut section...lol

You guys are ridiculous. SMH. Getting completely bend out of shape about a $47 (with shipping) pair of selvedge jeans seems pretty silly - but what do I know. I agree...if you sent them money- it should have been with the knowledge it was a bit of a lark. So t ake things with a grain of salt here. Give them a week or two and then just call your card company and cancel. Now for amusement purposes please be advised that i ordered last week. On wednesday i asked them via thier own message system to swap out the I x I for a different fabric....they responded that it was "in production". LOL Im sure....bottom line just have a sense of humour about all of this....if your lucky enough to get a selvdge pair of jeans this cheap great....if not just get a charge back thats what the card companies are for....

It would be great to bomb them with facebook, instagram messages about the lack of ready to wears that were supposedly ready.....im too old for social media but it would be amusing none the less

Would you really drop an extra $49 on a shirt just for the Thomas Mason name? I really like the colors of these, but not for $125. Well..if you put it that way..I guess I don't. But on the real, it looks nice. I'll look for it on JCrew when they have a big sale. I mean you can get bespoke and have a lot of MTM options (even in nyc) for that price.....

You missed nothing, Old26. Same LD. Same everything. RTW stuff shipped in a week and made recently, in front of your orders, my orders and most others...from last fall. Not mad about it, just stating a fact. The business nuances for this happening are many and I don't care about a single one of them. EDIT some stuff deleted. On second thought...I just don't care enough Different day, different model, same problems. Yes but i dont think you can even say that the RTW is legit...or shipping..

"I am truly sorry for the delay in your Ready To Ship orders. We had fully expected to ship orders within a 24-48 hour window as advertised, but were caught with our pants down by the overwhelming response to our 50% off sale. Thank you all for your understanding, patience, and support of our Ready To Ship line!" Your Friend, James "Romaigne" Avacado This is hysterical. Looks like another version of their wacky business model to raise cash. Ill be shocked if any significant RTW product is delivered in the next two weeks.....

forgetting for the moment whether lawless RTW will actually deliver, does anyone have any intel on the 12 oz. Kaihara Mills Light Indigo Selvedge Denim? As a goof i ordered the cone 11oz I x I but looks like my gustin I X I just shipped so thinking about the Kaihara....the pics on the LD site suck so any info or real world experience appreciated...thanks

Just shipped off a second pair of Gustin's to get tapered and hemmed at Railcar, 1st pair came out great so I have high hopes. I'm getting it done on the Hemp's and when I get them back I'm going to coat them with Sumi ink (inspiration: tateandyoko.com/news/focus-sumi-ink-selvedge/ ) Just curious. What type of measurements did you give for tapering..and did you go above or below the knee. .I have a gustin or two I'm debating a tapering with but never tapered any Jean.

Mythical RTW came in. I ordered 34 slim straight. I wear 33 G and I these are slimmer. But I just measured and they came in on the small side within tolerances. I'll try and put pictures up but I glanced over them quickly and solid construct. I seem to be one of the luckier ones in I got a perfect kickstarter order in December and now these. I still have a shirt and belt out from November though. Which denim did you order? The Cone 11 oz is very similar to the G Cone BluexBlack and would probably sew up slimmer given the density of the fabric. HOLY @#$$%$% did a unicorn just run by....

Hope the super lights fund quickly. If they are shipped in August you lose half the summer and the reason for purchasing them
