3sixteen's Narrow Tapered NT-120x Shadow Selvedge Denim is their newest cut featuring a roomier upper block with very tapered leg from the knee on down. Compared to their ST cut, the NT cut offers a higher rise and slightly roomier thighs for those who were previously restricted by the top block. This cut will also find fans from those who need to hem their pants but found the leg opening too large after doing so. The strong taper from the knee on down means that even chopping several inches off will still result in a quite tapered cut.
Please note that Size 29 and 30 are the old style with the Dark Cognac leather patch; all other sizes will be the newer style with a black roughout leather patch.
All the traditional details of the 120x Shadow Selvedge denim remain - 14.5 oz fabric from Kuroki Mills in Okayama, Japan; gunmental custom 3sixteen rivets; selvedge button fly and coin pocket; and a Dark Cognac Tanner Goods Leather Patch.
Note: The NT cut is similar to ST cut, but with a higher rise and a stronger taper from the knees on down. Recommend most size the same as they do in ST for a similar fit. CT cut remains the cut with the most room in thighs and top block. Denim will experience minimal shrinking with a cold wash, and will stretch back out after several wears. Cold wash and hang-dry.
Model: 6'0'' and 175 lbs, with (moderate) "lifter" thighs, wearing size 33 (same size as ST).
