I first bought a pair of Tellason Stock and that lead me to trying a pair of the selvedge jeans. I decided to go with Tellason's original in 14.75 oz and they are exactly what I hoped they would be. They are more of a straight leg than a slim on me, but they look great. I have lost a lot of weight in the last 18 months (about 150 pounds), so jeans like these used to be something that weren't made in my size. I am thrilled to be able to wear them now.
The quality, comfort, longevity, price, location of fabrication, and fit are so good I have a hard time finding any negatives. Great jeans, great company. I hope they keep this up for a long time.
These jeans are the best. They fit great, feel great and look great with all of my cowboy boots I bought them to wear with. Pete & Tony are awesome as well! I have shifted to most of my purchases being Made in the U.S.A. Tellason has become the standard which I compare all others to. Keep it up guys. I will keep coming back for more.
These jeans are terrific quality. I am 5’8”, 175 and the 36” waist fits perfect.
I’m a more athletic 5’ 10”, 210lbs, and typically wear a waist size 33-34 (inseam 30”). After comparing my current jeans to the product measurements Tony provided, I decided to go with size 35. They fit perfectly in the hips/waist/legs. They do have significant length, but look good stacked or cuffed. This extra material is new to me, but I like it well enough. I’ll give it some time and can always hem later if I change my mind. Overall, the quality and feel of the jeans is positively unlike any pair of jeans I’ve ever purchased. No pre-made holes. Quality stitching and fasteners. Looks and feels good. I was expecting them to be much stiffer after reading other reviews. I’ve worn them just over a week and finding them pretty comfortable already. I love that they are made in the USA. The shuttle loom selvedged denim is definitely cool/unique. I can’t remember the last time I was excited to buy a pair of jeans, but I’m glad I gave these a try. I’ll be looking forward to breaking them in and to some cool fading. Thanks for a great product!
Best jeans ever! I wore Levi's growing up and gave up for obvious reasons. I am now a couple of pairs into Tellasons (which, is a few years now, of course) and I love them. Perfect fit, quality, and look. I love what they stand for and the fact that my perfect cut is named after Joe Strummer. Well done.
I bought my first of JGM denim in 2010, sight unseen, after reading about Tellason in Men's Journal. Since that time, I've been a huge fan of the brand, and its owners. You're not going to find two gentlemen more devoted to making quality denim in the USA, and it shows in their products. I've owned the JGM in the medium and heavy weights in both Cone and Kaihara denim. If you're a Cone fan and you're skeptical about trying Tellason's proprietary Kaihara denim, don't be. The Kaihara denim is gorgeous and really comes to life after some wear and a few soaks. Superb all around, from fit to finish, stitch to stitch !
1st pair with the Japanese denim. Perfect build and attention to detail. At this level of quality and getting them on sale is best gift to myself all year. Thank you to all at Fort Tellason for making the only jeans that matter.
Still breaking these jeans in, but so far the quality seems excellent. Hand written note is an amazing touch. Delivery was quick and efficient. If they hold up well, I will certainly be getting a second pair
