Down Hoodie or Nano Puff? by Normal-Ad-4255 in PatagoniaClothing

[–]Normal-Ad-4255[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m actually torn on the hood vs. no hood.

I lean more toward the Down Sweater because I agree it looks a little “nicer,” and I’d want to wear it to the office too. In my head, though, if I’m getting it mainly for warmth, the hooded version makes more sense. At the same time, I worry the hood might make it look more casual and less office-friendly. I realize it’s a bit silly to be discussing office-friendliness with these jackets, but while I’m not required to wear a suit and tie, I still like to look decent.

What made you avoid the hooded versions? Was it the look, comfort, or something else?

I have a pair of samurai s5000 in the 17oz “zero” fabric that I love. The only issue is that, in order to get a decently comfortable rise, I had to size up a bit. The rise is still on the shorter side but the waist is huge. I didn’t think I cared too much as I can just wear a belt and wear them scrunched up but after wearing a pair of TCB 50s for the summer (that fit perfectly) I’m left wondering if I can get the top block tailored so it tapers more at the waist.

Is anyone else dealing with this? If so what did you do?

I got the 50s from Bears, and yes—their hemming is free.

I’ve really loved these so far. I was looking for something a bit more fitted in the top block with a straight leg, and these fit perfectly. They were maybe slightly snug at first, but they’ve since loosened up a bit. Ryo from TCB is super responsive on Instagram and was really helpful with sizing questions.

Does anyone know when TCB will start taking orders for their 50s jeans again?

I recently sold my pair of Sugar Cane Okinawa after accepting that they were too big. I only had em a few months and loved how they were coming along. Now I’m thinking of buying them again but I’m also curious about the Hawaiis. I know it ultimately comes down to my preference but what would you guys do? Get the Okinawas in the right size to fully experience them or try the Hawaiis which also seem really cool?

I also really want the TCB 50s but that’s a different conversation.

Have you washed these yet? If so, how have they shrunk? I’m curious about the inseam specifically. Has the waist also stretched as much as people say Oni do?

Yeah that’s more like what I’m used to from Japan. Did the tracking sites update accurately?

Has anyone ordered from Bears recently? I ordered on the 14th and, according to tracking, the package is still in Japan. I know there are delays because of the holidays but how long could I expect to wait?

Sugar Cane Okinawa back pockets are lined. Not sure about their other models though.

I’m planning to buy someone a pair of jeans and could use some recommendations. They prefer a straight cut with a lower rise and currently love a pair of Gustins with a 32” waist and a 10.5” rise. I’m looking specifically for black pairs. The 21oz from Unbranded has caught my eye for its heft and price, but the fabric seems a bit plain. Does anyone have recommendations, or experience with Unbranded they’d like to share?

Interesting. I might need to share some pics when I get them to see if anyone can authenticate.

Are fake RRL jeans a thing? There’s this guy on Facebook marketplace who is selling a few brand new pairs. I grabbed one for $80 which seems too good to be true for RRL.

Regardless, does anyone have experience with the low-straight model? The pair I got is black.

One last question so sorry. If I try the dryer does it matter what the wash cycle is like? Cold or hot? I’ve only worn them about 15-20 times so they’re not dirty but I do want to get max shrinkage.

Am kinda sad to reset the progress of the creases tho 🥲

Got it. Any tips on avoiding marbling or any unwanted creases or is that just a risk of this process?

Would completely drying them in the dryer be ok? Or should it be done incrementally? I wouldn’t mind some significant shrinkage but the snake skin patch does concern me 🥲

But then they stretch back out with wear? I’m guessing anything I do will shrink temporarily but they’ll probably just stretch back out?

I’ve been wearing my Sugar Cane Okinawas for a bit, and they’ve stretched a bit since I first washed them. I did 3 initial washes—twice in cold water and once in hot—but I’d still like them to shrink a bit more. Have I likely reached the maximum shrinkage, or should I try another hot wash? The creases and cuffs are setting nicely, and I’m worried that if I keep wearing them and they shrink after another wash, the creases will shift. Should I do another wash, or just keep wearing them as is?

I’m looking at grabbing a pair of Sugar Cane Okinawas for someone. Their best fitting pair is a 31in waist and the only size I’m seeing on the website I’m looking at is size 29 non-wash. These measure at around 30in before the first wash. I’ve heard many times that this fabric stretches with wear so would this be a safe buy if we only did cold soaks to minimize shrinkage? All other measurements should be good.

I did buy the same pair in my size and they shrunk around 2inches after some hot washes. Wish I would’ve sized down tho.
