It's hard to beat a worn in pair of xx012's. Not mine, I'm debating xx17's for a new summer pair.  |

The left hand twill 011 is a nice choice. But, from what I've seen, you've got a good amount of indigo warp/white weft denim, already. The indigo/indigo 012 would be a great change of pace. I was thinking the same. But can I pull it off though. Here's another example.....  Indigo is indigo... it fades. Wear it, wash it, and it looks like this. If you can't pull this off...you might as well sell all your denim. |

The color alphatectz? What do you mean? Are these and IndigoxIndigo denim? (sorry haven't been following too closely) Also, unfortunately (or fortunately for my wallet) PBJ still doesn't make a cut that will suit me. Even the new cut is off for me...seems to be too much taper from what I've seen. |

Brand new 12's look like awful dad jeans. Worn 12's are awesome. This also applies to just about any pair of jeans though, which is why I'm down to three pairs in rotation now.

Going to Blue in Green tomorrow morning. Already have 2 pairs put aside for me. |

When I mean by I don't think I can pull it. I mean the color. Never had a pure blue pair. It does look great though. I get where you are coming from. They may start darker, but they fade quickly. Honestly, if you've ever worn black denim, or navy chinos, you can pull these off until they fade. |

I agree with you on that part though. That's why I'm so hesitant. You'll be fine, trust me. That first double indigo pair is the hardest to embrace but before you know it you'll have the whole tuxedo. Just be sure you like the fit in store; it's been said a bunch but it's true, fit really is most important. |

I actually picked up a pair of the new Nike SB Reese Forbes Highs (Denim) I have a regular denim jacket from Levi's, but would like to get a Raw one sooner or later. |

They aren't as tapered as I like, but they do look great. Went with the 36.

Yeah, the 12's and 17's I've been considering would need a taper from the knee down.

That's what I meant, probably take an inch out of the cuff, tapered from the existing knee down.

So I decided not to get them. Green in blue doesn't offer tapering.

It would be fun if we noticed some crime, inadvertently captured in the background of your fit pics.
