Gustin Jeans Selvage Denim made in SF

I like the slate, something a little different. I just wish they'd start showing examples of denim as finished jeans and take away the guesswork.

If you open up the Slate on Gustins page they do have a photo of a finished pair. Not a complete photo but it's better than what they had before.

Ah yes. They need to do more of that. An former boss of mine told me how he once had a jacket made up based on a small swatch of tweed,and when it turned up, the pattern-multiplication meant the result was so retina-slashing that he only wore it a few times.

After reading through this thread and using one of the posted referral links, finally ordered my very first pair of selvedge jeans a week and a half ago (the #62 Japan Regular!). Today they sent me one of my own, in case anyone else is interested in giving Gustin a try... haven't received mine yet, so can't personally comment on the jeans themselves...

I saw this Gustin ad on ebay Gustin Denim Japan Standard Raw Selvedge Sz. 34 and the seller mentioned the waist measured 33". By Gustin's size chart these should measure 35" at the waist and probably end up at 36" after breaking in. Any other member's have experience with Gustin with respect to how accurate their delivered size is vs the size chart? Hope this guys experience is a flyer...

My 38's fit like the website stated. They weren't undersized.

mattface · Jul 30, 2013

My 33 straight fits came very close to the advertised size (34"), maybe half an inch tighter. I wanted them to stretch to 35", and that is exactly what they have done. They stretched that much just after maybe 4 days of wear, and have not stretched any further after 2 months of regular wear.

If you measure your best fitting jeans out of the laundry, and then again after wearing them for a couple of days, the first number is likely what you want them to be new, and the second number is what you can expect them to stretch to. At least it's worked out that way for me. I've had a lot of jeans that get too loose after wearing for a couple of days, and those are NOT the ones you want to measure.

Just a heads up, Gustin just added a campaign for their Heavy American. This is a dark indigo denim with a classic red selvage ID from Cone Mills NC. It's the heaviest Cone Mills Denim they've ever offered at 16.25oz with a dense tight weave, and bonus it's at their $81 price point ($61 for first time buyers with a referral code). If you want a heavyweight denim with classic looks, this one is an excellent choice. I've been waiting for them to bring it back, and I just backed a pair for myself.

I am tempted on this one.

In my opinion people can just use the link of the person they like/know.

Just because I posted before you doesnt mean people have to use my link. If you like Butte (and who doesnt

just look at his smile

) just click his link.

Based on that criteria, my link is dead lol

Bump - 72% to goal.
Anyone interested, there's a few $20 store credits posted here, and the jeans seem to be a great bargain.

I need a pair of those. Here's a $20 credit for someone.

ButteMT61 · Aug 12, 2013

16 pairs left! Then, if I like these, I'm going to go for their 18oz.

mattface · Aug 13, 2013

That batch of Heavy American funded, but I see where there are 16 more listed (8 left at the moment). Generally runs shorter than 50 mean they are using up the fabric, so this will probably be the last we see of this denim for a while. If you want one get em while they're hot!

I get 15" on my size 33 straight fit if that helps you any.
