Everybody knows denim game be real stressful. I’ve been on the hunt for a nice pair of selvedge jeans that doesn’t make my ass look flat as an ipad. I don’t know why I’ve always overlooked jeans from J. crew, but J. Crew joints are extremely soft, probably 10oz denim so it’s not the heaviest denim, but that makes it so much more softer. Most of the selvedge denim I have (Gap, Tellason, 7, Levis) are quite heavy and stiff, but these feel almost broken in already, they feel similar to the 501s i’ve had for over 3 years. I’m normally a 32 waist but like most jcrew stuff, they tend to run a bit big so I opted for the 31. The waist fits perfectly and the thighs have maybe half a centimeter of room to breathe, which is perfect. The sales rep at the store assured me that the jeans are not even broken in yet, and after a few wears that the waist and leg openings will break in nicely. its too damn hot to wear jeans during the day, but im hoping to get some wears during the evenings.
On that note, anyone know if selvedged denim can be tapered like any other jeans? Do I have to give the tailor any special instructions when doing this?
P.S - The pants were $131 with student discount! Always use that student discount! Even if you’re no longer a student, just show them your ID… it’s not like they run it through a database to see that you’re still enrolled.

Linen herringbone sportcoat in Ludlow fit $325.00
It’s interesting to see J. Crew releasing such a jacket at this time of the year. Tweed(at least this color?) is usually worn in the warmer months but they want you to go for that contrarian styling with this brown herringbone sportcoat. Fully lined, double vent in the finest Italian linen… Would you wear this on a day like today? I actually have a brown herringbone sportcoat from YSL but I haven’t been able to find the right way to wear it, and the right time/season. It’s a bit too thick for the warmer months, and yet the colors tell me that it’s more for the chillier Spring nights.
Can anyone recommend a good way to rock this jacket besides the outfit seen in the picture?
dropped off my jacket at the tailor for alterations;
shorten the sleeves 1/4” ($25) because i like to wear my jackets with the shirt cuffs showing a bit more, and also had the sides taken in about 1/4” ($25) as well.
