The Strike Gold

[Broark]

Seems like I'm on a bit of a Strike Gold binge lately, picked up the indigo dyed crew and the heather grey hoodie.
I've also got a pair of 2015s on the way that I'm very excited about, I've had my eye on that denim for quite some time. They should arrive some time this week.

The xxx5 cut is my favorite cut of denim.

[Broark]

Definitely ment to type 2105, not 2015 haha.
But that makes me even more excited. I was worried the knee and hem would be a bit too big. But I've seen lots of fit pictures and they all look like a very nice cut.

I think someone on the forum may have the 2105 (EDIT: tigerpac).  I love the mud dyed weft.  I (and babyknight as well) have the 3105, the left hand twill xxx5 cut.

Please share your experiences and pics when they land, I think you're going to love them!

[Broark]

I'll definitely be sure to post some pictures! The tracking information hasn't been updated since Saturday. I hope they get here this week since I'm heading to D.C. a week from today.

Love my 2105's, my favourite pair all round. Will try and post some pics over the weekend.

Does anybody have any experience with strike gold's t shirts? I'm generally a medium in iron heart t shirts and a 42 in flat head's, xl sound like the right size?

Thanks for all the above help people.

@Broak and @EastWest
Could you be so kind as to measure your 2105's the Iron Heart way and post on here when you get a chance….

I also am M IH and 42 FH and I wear a L SG. They are a fairly snug but I like it. I think I have a pic in this thread a few pages back.

You could always shrink an XL down I suppose though mine hasn't shrunk much even after an accidental hot wash.

[grandmasterben]

Hmm large has very small measurements but maybe they're wrong…. Could you measure the chest and length on yours? It would be greatly appreciated. Very interested in SG's tees, they feel great and I like having a diverse selection of brands in my wardrobe.

[Broark]

I'll post some measurements upon arrival.

I've always wanted to get some SG tees but they just seem way too small for me.

[mclaincausey]

P2p: 20"
Back collar to hem: 25"

[grandmasterben]

Thanks man!  The large definitely looks like the one I should go for….

[Broark]

My SG 2105's came in today! A lot earlier than expected which is nice. I'm out running some errands but I'll get around to posting some pictures. This denim sure is abrasive. I really love the mud weft.

[mclaincausey]

Super GMB, happy to help, please share your thoughts and pics, I really like their shirts.  I love how the loopwheel horizontal texture is so prominent right away.

My guess is that denim will be kitten soft in a few months of daily wear if mine are in anyway similar.  That abrasiveness is a real gift IMO, I have loved every minute of taming these SGs (wearing them quite happily today).

Just received my SG Loopwheel sweat in XL from Self Edge. Thanks for the sizing advice fellas, especially Kiya. Spot on for me (wear L in IH shirts). Be ordering more soon

[Broark]

I've got my pair in the tub for a soak. I think I'll be happy that I got the 2105 and not the 2109, seems like a nice modern cut without being too slim. These are perfect through the thigh. How much will this denim stretch? From what I remember reading it is quite a bit.

[tigerpac]

^Plenty of stretch

[Broark]

Wore mine all day yesterday and noticed quite a bit of give already. I'll try to take some fit pics today. I love how this denim looks in direct sunlight. Now I need to get a pair of the 3105s!

[grandmasterben]

Just got this….too sick!
