I sized down 1 size to 32 just to force myself to lose some love handles.

How'd you guys size?
TTS W32 for me. Could have gone with a W33 as the thighs are tight. Also please note that I have the Gen 1 Version which were the now RS1 - Straight Leg.

My pair arrived at my office while I was traveling to China. I went to the office yesterday and there they were. Beautiful fabric, great details. I love the very simple buttons, with no design at all. The cut is nice, a very credible answer to the Japanese!

Thank you, Mista Slappa!

I say support American craftmanship and quality manufacturing and buy yourself a pair of Roy's.

I'll take a pass on this because I've got too many IH's to wear already (301 are awesome, almost getting to the top of my list) and then the BB is coming soon, the 666, my overdyed 634SR supposed to come back from Japan any time soon, my new 634SR... I already decided NOT to get the DC collab model although I wanted to try it bad... And I still want to wear my PBJ's from time to time, my Okinawas, or even my Samurais'. So no, unfortunately no Roy contest for me... Shit I suddenly realize thats a lot of jeans!

just answering my own question in case somebody here is interested too. it's an merrow shell stitch that does the special overlock.

also there is an cornely machine for sale here in NZ it's an earlier model than the one in the video. pm me if this is of interest to you, not cheap though...

And i thought I was having problems moving between my 7301 and the new SeXImperial collab, but I would love to be in  shoes right now with all those jeans.

Have not sold them yet. Yes the ones with my name in them. Just too tight for me. Holding onto the hope that they will get larger or I will get smaller as I know that I will never purchase another pair...

Or you find an eager beaver, a little smaller than you, called Landon?

Okay maybe "never" is too strong a word. I mean, if there happens to be an IH cross breed of some sort then sign me up. Otherwise, I have enough denim and already know what I would grab next if it came to it...
