#567 Vintage Army Selvedge

"Got these in 35 Slim after having a great experience with this fit in another one of Gustin's selvedge denims. Very very nice pair of jeans. I am wearing them to my professional office job for the second day in a row and like them so much, I had to order a second pair. I normally wear professionally cleaned and pressed indigo denim, but I am getting good feedback with these. Get a set if this color is up your ally."

"This item caught my eye right away on my first visit to weargustin.com. Back then, the photos depicted it as definitely more green than brown. Then I read the reviews and it began to sound like the white-and-gold-or-black-and-blue dress that broke the Internet a few years ago: one described it as "much greener and less brown than in the pics" while another said it was "not light or olive but a rich caramel brown". I passed on it. Two jeans later, I checked it out again, and saw that the photos had been updated to what they are now: clearly brown and not green, which made me ask myself, "Exactly which 'Army' did Gustin have in mind when they named it?" I backed the campaign and a few weeks later, I was opening a package to reveal what was definitely "not light or olive but a rich [and burnt] caramel brown" pair of jeans. It is beautiful. Instead of taking it to Blue Owl for hemming like I did the first two, I cuffed it Tokyo style. No contrast stitching to show off really; I just didn't feel like mutilating it right away. Today I wore it for the first time and it looks and feels amazing. It has the expected initial stiffness that I have now come to really enjoy the break-in for; substantial, but not too hefty. It is just right at home with an indigo Division Shirt from Taylor Stitch and dark brown cap-toe lace-up boots. The gold selvedge really is a nice touch and is all the contrast that this unique pair needs. Another 5 stars."

"Very happy with the vintage army selvedge! I find the color to be more of a dark brown than the taupe-gray color it looks like to me in the pictures, but I really like the color regardless. Looking forward to seeing how the fade looks after some wear."

"I love the material, the color, and overall design. The fit is great overall, but It is slightly tight around the waistline. They are true size, so buy one size up. Also buy pants that are in stock to avoid waiting a very long time for delivery. Aldo, make sure you are buying from them what you really want (no guessing)."
