calling Mattbert:
if you were only willing to acquire one more pair of indigo denim in the foreseeable future would you opt for the NIxP or the standard zimbs?
(i'm leaning towards the zimbs...typically preferring a heavier/crispier denim...but the colors of the NIxP look amazing)

Agreed, that stained concrete background is the suxor.

I do like the color of the NIxPs, but I don't do 10oz denim for $150  Too bad they don't have this in a heavy weight. 

Damn, man. Those two are 1a and 1b on my list of favorite Gustins right now. That's like asking me to choose between my wife and child.

I am wearing my Zims right now, and it's almost impossible to pick against them when they're on. But if any other G denim was going to win out, it would have to be the NIxP. They are just plain special, and mine remain my best-fitting pair of Gustins. If it might help you decide, I just put up some baby fade pics on Imgur. Here's a teaser:



You have the Okies already, correct? If so, I would definitely go with the NIxP, especially if you don't have any other denim with a funky weft color. The Okies are a step below the Zims in my book, but it's not a huge step. The NIxP actually start out pretty crispy, but they break in quickly because they're only 10-11oz.

Thanks. And yeah I wore them a lot. I received them mid-September, and they probably got 45-50 wears by Thanksgiving. Tack on another 12-15 wears since then because December was so unusually warm. They got a gentle hand wash in the tub around a week or two before Christmas because I kept thinking I was going to be putting them away for the winter soon.

I never really beat them up, though. At least 90% of the time they were on, I was at the office, driving to work, or just walking around town. So I wore them often, but I didn't wear them hard. If somebody were to subject them to more abuse, I think they'd fade like crazy.

I think its a great looking fabric.  I would love to see it in a heavier work shirt version, but not in a button down.  Probably better just the same, as I don't need anymore shirts. 

ickes i agree the lined trucker looks good. the release timing is keeping me away from it...knowing it wouldn't see significant wear until next fall and i'm sure there will be subsequent releases before then (along with real world feedback)

Agree. I am looking at my spring purchase right now..... (except I bought a pair of boots two days ago out of my own impulsive behavior)

I'm not a big fan of the brown trucker for some reason.  Do some type of lining in the dark oak trucker and I sell mine and back it.

If I had a need for something like this I'd buy it, but it still blows my mind how Gustin doesn't release something like this 3-4 months ago, so people can wear it appropriate to the season. It will end up getting worn a time or two, before being put up for the Summer, and pulled out again 8 months from now.

If they offer one up for next Fall, I'd likely try it again...

I asked this on IG - no reply - and it's important.  I'm sure I know the answer, but:

"Now, one question for @weargustin: Are you changing the patterns to accommodate for the lining? If not, they will be smaller than the unlined in the same size..."
