The Left Hand Twill Selvedge is a 13.75oz indigo rope dyed Japanese selvedge denim, woven on vintage shuttle looms in a left hand twill construction. When worn over time, this construction will provide a softer feeling denim and will emphasize vertical fading. Other details include contrast stitching, full grain brown leather patch, white selvedge ID, silver metallic buttons and rivets. The Strong Guy is a relaxed straight fit; high rise, fuller in the seat and thigh that falls to a wide leg opening. Faded example photos show a pair worn 7 months.
Got these in a winter sale and they've been excellent so far - initially very stiff, but after 2 or 3 wears they conform excellently to your shape and movement, and now (after 20ish wears, no wash yet) are really comfortable and flexible at the same time as being very tough and hard-wearing.
I like the Strong Guy fit too - slightly wide at the waist compared to the rise, so best bet is to wear a tight-ish belt rather than sizing down, which might make the rise too tight.
Looking forward to seeing how the denim fades, and apparently the Left Hand Twill softens nicely over years without losing strength - can't comment on that yet...
Size down as this fit runs big.
