A quick impression on a pair of Bob Dong wabash indigo jeans that just arrived (3 week lead time over the holidays).
Very nicely made, the cotton drill is thicker than the hickory denim fabric on Pointers, but not crisp and not rigid. It not fluffy soft either, so just the right hand. I guess it’s not meant to be stiff so it’s not stiff. Details of pockets and rivets are all pleasant to the eyes, the color is on the light blue side. China has a long tradition of indigo dye industry so I think this is a matter of designers choice. I was expecting a darker blue but it’s nice for a change from the Iron Heart black wabash pants.
Hardware feels heavy and high quality.
Worth $155? Not sure about the cost but I’m sure Bob Dong makes a big profit.
