I think you guys should start soon. You'll want the extra time for the proper Robert Plant fades. Soon it's going to be cold and....well...that won't help.  |

Yeah, or they seriously screwed the pooch on sewing them up right and had a lot of "do-overs". I've thought about getting another pair and giving them the washer and dryer treatment, but that seems excessive, even for me. |

Gustin (or Skyblue Sewing) seems to struggle with unsanforized fabric. Beyond the standard meaningless "it's harder to work with" that everyone quotes to avoid sounding ignorant, I have no idea what the specifics are that cause issues during cutting and sewing. I guess I'm ignorant  They always end up with a huge pile of rejects stock when they do unsanforized.... If I were in the market for next years summer jeans, I'd get a pair from stock and beat the crap out of them next year. I think some of you guys are going to end up with some really nice fades and for 90 bucks? That's a good deal as long as the sizing works. |

Received mine. Came in under 37 straight spec, but it won't be an issue. Pre-soak measurements..... Waist 18.5 Thigh 12.5(2" down) Front rise 11.25 Back rise 14.75 Cuff 8.75 Inseam 36.25 Will post post-soak numbers Sunday Post-soak measurements..... Waist 17.75 Thigh 12.25(2" down) F rise 11 B rise 14.75 Cuff 8.4 Inseam 34.25 I gave them a quick fit check, and they are darn near perfect. The waist is comfortably snug. The thigh and leg have just the right amount of wiggle room. The rise is where I like it, no plumbers crack worries. The inseam is .25-.5 more than I would typically wear without a cuff. I will be stacking. Ready when you guys are ! |

You may be my denim doppelganger. |

They actually werent that tight in the waist, i mean they were tight, but my herringbones are tighter. I also didnt force it at all when putting the dryingstick in the waist, ther is something wrong with this button im sure, I have slaughtered alot of other Gustins and this never happened. It looks croocked like it didnt lock but just got bent:   |

Griffin I had something very similar happen to me with another pair of pants (non-Gustin). I bent the shank straight with some pliers and then hammered it back in. It's held so far. Give it a go.

It w\is impossible to straighten. Gustin will send me a new one. Thats good bc the button itself (the locking thing inside) is kinda damaged. I think this will work out sweet.

Yeah I've had rivets pop off and they've sent me replacements. They sent extras which was good because the first was a test and the second came off again. You have to hit it really hard. |
