These are only 14oz, but that’s why I love them. For the first time, to acquire the kind of mid century fade that I wanted (pretentious I know), I’ve just treated them like a normal garment. Machine washed them before I even wore them, wash them maybe every few months instead of never. They’re ridiculously soft and comfortable and the construction is fantastic. By comparison, I bought a pair of Pherrow’s back in March because I don’t want these to disintegrate and the quality bevetween them is night and day - there was a £70 difference in price but still. The value I’ve had out of these Warehouse’s has been incredible.
Here’s the original pair of Montgomery Ward’s I mentioned: http://vintage-mushroom.net/?pid=131815950
This particular pair have a star on them do commemorate the centennial of Texan independence.
