Long in the leg
Had them hemmed at a local tailor, otherwise perfect. Pockets are deep and properly bar-tacked.

Second pair
Bought the second pair before the first wore out because I know they'll sell through.
Ade O., LagosBought 33True to size - Sep 2026
Fading nicely
Six months of daily wear and the honeycombs are coming through. Followed the soak advice and sized up one.
Sam W., PortlandBought 36Size up - Aug 2026
The right rise
Mid rise that actually sits at the waist. Hems are clean and the fabric has real body.
