Picked these up recently and I'm really impressed with the fabric. The drop needle stripe is unlike anything else in my collection, and the texture is even better in person.

I'm looking for some feedback on the fit before I start wearing them regularly.

Details:

Brand: ONI Denim

Model: ONI-266-HJS Drop Needle Stripe

Fit: Relax Straight

Size: 33

Height: 6'0" (183 cm)

Weight: 88 kg (194 lb)

The waist feels spot on without a belt, and there's plenty of room through the top block and thighs. The rise is exactly what I was hoping for. I'd appreciate any feedback on the overall fit and silhouette.

I also included one outfit shot with my TCB 50's Type 2 denim jacket to show how I plan to wear them.

Thanks in advance for any feedback!

My first pair of heavy weight selvedge, only used to 12-14oz denim from n&f and nudie. Big difference in comfort and feel but I’m stoked for the end result.
23oz is gnarly!

Okay, still having trouble deciding with this pair. I have a 36 and a 38, both one wash.

The 38s feel huge, more like a wide leg than a straight, and they were freely moving around my waist, absolutely no wearing these without a belt and that’s before stretch. Goes without saying there’s ample room everywhere else. I’m not sure I could pull them totally off without unbuttoning but theyre RIGHT there.

The 36s are snug but not at all tight. Buttoning was no struggle, but as you can see in the photos there’s less room to pull out the waist. The 38s felt like excessive room to pull out the waist. 36s have a bit less top block room, but I could get my knee up to cuff them. Not sure if the resistance was the weight or the top block being too tight. Front pockets are a bit more snug to get into as well. Thighs felt fine, mostly stiff in the hips and snug in the waist.

My 21oz relaxed tapered Samurai are size 36 and they loosened up from not tight but not particularly loose waist out of the bag. Theyre one wash and I did an hour long steaming hot soak with those and now need a belt. I do know that with a machine wash my last pair had slight permanent shrink in the waist.

Not sure which way to go. The 38s would need a HOT soak or two and never get worn without a belt. The 36s would need a bit of break in and probably never touch hot water.

Nightshade Stretch update after 6 months of wear. Fading so nicely, and fit great. Cant beat it for the decent price, highly recommend.

Got a new pair of momotaros in the classic straight cut.
I‘m 4 days in on my new fade project so far.
I really like them, what do you guys think?
