A NOTE FROM PETE & TONY

I will not forget landing in Padang, Sumatra, 20 years ago.

My friends and I were there to surf the Mentawai Island archipelago for a couple of weeks and we were lucky to walk off that plane. As we approached the runway, the only thing that seemed odd was our airspeed, as it appeared that we were 10 feet off the ground and still traveling about 300 mph. Our pal, Eric Sorensen, was sitting at the window seat next to me and perfectly stated, "coming in hot". The pilot landed the plane with very little runway to spare and I bet that aircraft went straight to the hangar for a fresh set of brakes.

This was the beginning of a great trip and I won’t forget Eric's color commentary anytime soon. Why bring this up? No other reason than being thankful I was not wearing this particular fit of jeans if things didn't go well on that landing.

These Gustave jeans are 100% awesome and are also the slimmest that we make (which would have hindered my spritely exit if we had run out of runway). These 16.5 oz. selvedge jeans have a lower rise and tapered leg that will easily show off your shoes of the day.

Thanks for reading and thanks to Eric for keeping it real on that flight.

Best from HQ,

    Best there is

    Posted by Adam on 2nd Dec 2015

    The Gustave is the best skinny fit jean out there and the 16.5 oz Cone Mills denim is heavy duty stuff! All praise aside, the fit is comfortably loose in the seat allowing for mobility and tapers to the skinny leg I've been used to seeing since high school. All the details are subtle and elegant and the denim is perfect. I got these jeans in the end of November and will be glad to have them broken in by Spring.

    PREFECT JEANS - ABSOLUTELY AMERICA MADE

    Posted by Leo N. on 24th Aug 2015

    GUSTAVE - 16.5 OZ 16.5 oz fabric is very stiff if compared with my other 14.5 oz jeans, but it is excellent for me as I like the stiff feeling very much. It is natural, raw and prefect. The fit is good as well, the leg opening is 14" is just fit for me with 5"10. It looks very slim and I love this stuff very much.

    killer denim right here

    Posted by Unknown on 16th Jun 2015

    Been searching for a slim, tapered jean to add to the collection - something with room to move in the top block but that narrows somewhat significantly from the knee to ankle. The Gustave is it! The 16.5 oz is sturdy but not as starchy/stiff as other denim of equal weight out there. Only had these on for a couple days now, so we'll see how it fades, but it's already softening up even without a soak. This is my first pair of Tellasons and I'm super impressed. The quality and attention to detail won't let you down. Oh, and these guys shipped out the pair literally within 30 minutes of my order going through.

    Really high quality jeans, great fit, great service!

    Posted by Unknown on 17th Mar 2015

    These are really high quality jeans. Great denim, lots of thoughtful details, nice slim fit and they look great. I wear a 33 waist normally and the 33 fit well, maybe even slightly loose, but I imagine they will shirt a bit after the first wash. Deliver was super quick from coast to coast. I highly recommend Tellason.

    Top notch

    Posted by Jared on 22nd Nov 2014

    I normally fall somewhere between a 30-31 waist and tend to go with a 30 in raw denim as it does stretch out. I ended up going with the 31 in the Gustave, as it offered more room in the top block while still tapering down at the leg opening. I am 5'10 170, and really enjoy a tapered denim as my calves are not huge. This is the PERFECT amount of taper. Enough to silhouette the leg nicely, but not so tapered that you cant fit the leg opening over boots or hi tops. As expected the details and construction are amazing, and the 16.75 cone mills are chunky and heavy, but after only a week of wear have softened up nicely while still remaining stiff in all the right places. Really looking forward to a nice long journey with these bad boys.

    high quality

    Posted by Mark on 25th Aug 2014

    Very good product but you have to buy one or two waist sizes more! I usually have W34 but I bought W35. Even W36 could be fine for me.
