i loved these! i had never worn a jean heavier than 14oz so it was fun to feel how they changed and softened up each day. i could really see the progression in them, going from this super stiff blank canvas of a jean, to having all this character from my daily activities.

i would imagine a 20oz jean can seem like quite the undertaking when you pick a pair up but that just wasn’t the case at all with these. my typically size is 28-29 but these were a size 30. initially, they were the stiffest jeans i had ever put on, but through my first day of wear i could feel a huge difference -- the waist, hip, and thigh seemed to have the most change overall just a few days in. i could still feel the weight of the jean as the day and days wore on, but the mobility improved along the way.

i always put my i+w gear to the test whether it be my daily commute on my bike, long weekend rides, skating, or busy days in the shop! the 20 oz willie’s are built for anything you want to throw at them from the jump and are perfect for showing that as they wear.
