I’ve had many pairs of selvedge jeans from many different makers, including Tellason and these are my favorite. The cut is perfect. Not too slim but just enough to fit super well. The 16.5 oz denim is super comfortable and breaks in quickly. If I only owned one pair of jeans, it would be these.
I've never been so happy with fit, feel and look.
Admired this brand from afar for a long time and finally grabbed a pair for myself. Could not be happier. Fit, construction, fabric -- everything -- on these jeans is excellent. The denim is obviously sturdy, but surprisingly easy to wear, even straight out of the packaging. The quality of these jeans cannot be overstated. A little more on the Elgin fit: the higher rise on these things sets them apart from the pack. Not enough brands make a tapered jean with a higher rise. I wear these jeans to my restaurant job and it's such a relief to bend/squat down and not have my shirt come untucked. Seems like a small thing, but it makes a huge difference. I know this sounds like an advertisement and I promise it is not. I just love these jeans. Seriously. Love them.
Love these jeans! Taper is perfect, fit is perfect(and I'm not a real skinny guy) and the construction is perfect. You can tell these guys know what they're doing when it comes to denim.
I have owned/do own a number of pairs of high end vintage denim and these are the BEST. Best fit, construction, taper, material, you name it. Do not hesitate to take the plunge if you are considering buying these. One can pay much more and not buy as satisfying a denim.
Wow! 1st day wearing these. I don't suppose there is a more forgiving 16.5oz raw denim out there in this price range. I'm super impressed at how comfortable the inside of the denim is despite how rigid the fabric is! I'm 5'11" 245lbs. and like to have more room in the rise. You can imagine how tough it must be to find good jeans in this world of "nutcrushing, skinny thigh" low rise denim. The shape of the Elgin fit is perfect for me! It's better than the Wrangler blue bell "Eddy" fit that was my favorite fitting jean in my closet, until today! The communication, hemming, and finished product are first class! Hopefully there will be more fabrics for the Elgin fit in the future. Maybe "Black/Black" or Duck canvas etc.
My go to jeans. These will last a long time. The quality is amazing. The fit is spot on! The styling, sensational.
