Nice, I have an unworn pair of those stashed away.
I’ve been enjoying the XX20 and XVUS variants lately. The R01 cut is ideal for me. |

I was lucky enough to score a pair of the new Roys just offered up from SE, arrived today, gave them a hot soak for the full shrink, hung dry, and they feel great. This is a tapered fit that works brilliantly for me: a 33 waist, about a 32in inseam. I usually prefer a very straight cut---having largely given up on skinnier jeans on an old guy like me. These fit a lot like my PBJ XX-011 and the denim feels typically Cone Mills---so not much slub---and thus not much like the PBJ fabric. In short, they feel are a lot like new Levis that I wore in 1972 except the quality of the construction is incomparably better. If the devil is in the details then sign me up, Lucifer.

What a massive void that’s going to make.

Wonder who bought the machines up; guess we'll find out sooner or later.

When the company who bought the machines, gets set up, it will be announced- I just wish a company who bought all the machines, would use Roy...not just as a consultant, I wish they would hire him once or twice a year- to make his jeans, but This of coarse would have some complications So it’s just a thought. |
