there were instructions?
You didn't read the HipsterMax(TM) typewritten letter?
Will there be a kickstarter for those?
Maybe. Just working on trim detail this week. Photo shoot next week.
Hoping for launch next Friday. Either on our site or Kickstarter.

any sign of the non-leather patch yet Brant?

We are starting to sample some cork patches which we hope will work out.
Loving mine, perfect for work, rarely wear anything too smart, have suits for those occasions. Lovely material and very comfy. The too small pair in the post, and will definitely be ordering another in the near future.
Luvving mine, they are proper keks --- btw normally run a mile from corduroy stuff but that photos look fine
Just ordered mine. 🙂
Was about to get some Howies jeans, but thought I'd better support HebTroCo for the sake of £25.
Small world. Found this on the bar of my local in San Sebastián, Basque Country. Wouldn't mind a pair, after having had a feel of the proprietor's legs...

Not really, Ed's out there at the minute... ( or was) 😉
Funnily enough Bob, I just sent your films off to your Dad's in Hebtroco recycled packaging too. 😀
I used a pair of howies jeans to measure mine from, the waist sizing is consistent between the two - however my jeans are a looser fit than the troosers (to be expected tho, not sure what jean cut I have)
Cheers Pepper, they turned up yesterday.
Was going to wear mine for the first time today, but the waistline lays across my recent operation cut/wound/scar that I now need to get air to now the dressing is off.
Low hip jeans it is for the time being then
Without reading through all the posts, is there a place in hebden where I can try these on.
I really struggle getting a lot of trousers with the right waist over my calves then thighs and I'm not that big. So best to try first if I can.
Hello Kirky.
"Drink?" the bottle/taproom/bar on Market St has a set of try on trousers alongside it's excellent range of keg and cask beers, bottles and prosecco on tap.
Open 11-9 Tuesday to Saturday and 11-5 on Sunday.
Dynamite who are now located in the lower business park up Cragg Vale have a try on set too, and some limited amounts of stock.
Hovering over the buy button but worried about ordering 34s when I've been a 32 since Jesus was a lad. Can anyone who's done the same offer any words of reassurance?
Mine are the same size as my Levi's.
If you have Levi's that fit go with whatever is written on the patch. Brant, correct me if I'm talking shite.
I think a lot of it depends on how you wear your Levis. And what Levis they are.
Measuring things as per our chart is a good guide.
Typically 2in up on jeans size is not unusual.

Good point. 😀

I'm a 32" but needed a 34" in these.
Press buy on the 34's, I'm sure Brant will help you out if wrong.

Levis and hand-made hipster artisan trousers? Never had you down as a trouser connoisseur 🙂
Damn it.. I'm a 31 waist
What's your leg size tricky?

I think that's right.
I went 38" on the Hebtroco - am usually 38" in Levi 514
Next pair I get will be 40" I think, just to handle the slight tautening on wash.
What's your leg size tricky?
32.
Best fitted trousers i own are 31 waist/32 leg
Ah, annoying. I'm in between sizes. 32'' can be a bit tight and 34'' is always baggy. I've never had a proper fitting pair of jeans because of that.
What would people suggest?
Depends what you want by proper fit. By the sound of things, go 34in.

GAP certainly used to sell jeans with "odd" waist measurements i.e. 33"
Thought I'd stumbled onto a Cosmo page then, just eat some pies man. That'll soon sort you out.
Corduroy?

Wasn't there a rather nice blue planned for the cords?

No. There was an Instagram of my black ones that looked kind of pewtery because it was sunny.
I'll have some black ones with perpetual sunshine then please 🙂
I did wonder if a belt was on the cards. Too rich for me at that price though.
This a blatant bump, but it's because we're feeling all emotional as it's six months today since our Kickstarter launch, where we sold 176pairs of trousers in 5hrs 10mins.
Many thanks to everyone here who supported on us on that day, or since.
Trouser Town is back. Cheers

I wondered why I had just got spammed again 😉
But bravo for jumping of the trouser-shaped cliff and making a success of it.
Well done Brant and Ed. Would it be commercially sensitive to say how many pairs a week Trouser Town is banging out now?
The hot weather didn't do us huge favours last week but I'm happy saying that we have shipped (from the post office in town, carried there by hand!) over 1000 pairs since we launched.
£100,000 of pants! That is a lot of turn up turn over.
I'm getting some green 177s for my birthday off t'missus.
My first phone number 😆
We're at Altrincham Market today, if anyone wants to pop over and feel our cloth. Here until 4pm.
Will you be there again? Or any other markets? Can't get over today!
^ needs "touching cloth" gag.
Cold enough to wear my founders' pair today and received a compliment from fellow parent just now. 😀
I've just done an open top bus ride whilst wearing mine looking Cool As ####.
