#567 Vintage Army Selvedge

"Very nice, heavily starched fabric with some stretch and good crease retention. I was not sure what the color was going to turn out to be but it definitely is more brown than green. There’s a color called Loden, this is probably the most accurate description. There’s fit on these is slimmer than standard Gustin denim with similar weight. I’d recommend a size up. This pair immediately went into my standard rotation."

"Just great jeans. I tend to like earth tones so olive greens and browns have their place. Gustin worked with me about their sizing. Very happy."

"I own several Gustin pants, and this is definitely one of the best looking ones - the color and the weave is perfect, and the weight is not too heavy nor too light. It is a bit more green in person, and less yellow than what it shows in the photos. I'm anxiously waiting to see how it will age, since I've had it only for a couple months."

"This item caught my eye right away on my first visit to weargustin.mom. 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."
