#341 Indigo Monster Sashiko 5 Pocket

"Beautiful understated fabric that's as dressy as the rest of your outfit. The texture patterning is not as showy as the pictures, especially at night, so are perfect for adding a bit of extra to whatever you're wearing. You feel the texture when wearing, but material is soft, so it's an overall dressed down feeling. About the same level of stretch as normal denim, but not as dense, so much faster break in (first wear) and overweight folks like myself may want to size up so they lay evenly, especially the button fly. The stretch level also means that i didn't have to get the pants hemmed or cuffed, as the but if extra material breaks just shows off the texture even more. Does attract a bit more dust, but easily brushed off. Overall a very solid addition to the rotation."

"Runs small but very breathable fabric. I hope I can shrink"

"Beautiful quality and attention to detail. The photos may make them appear to be brighter than they are; in daylight, the indigo color is obvious but I'd say darker than the photos suggest. Be sure to follow the care instructions. As far as size goes, I am a 29W at typical clothing brands, so I ordered a 30W here. This works, but in hindsight, I'd go with 31W just for maximum comfort. Limited inseam lengths is the one downside, so I have to have all of my Gustin pants tailored."

"It's an interesting look and texture. It was a risky choice to pick blind, but I am very happy with them. Solid quality and look. The color and texture are great. Very happy."
