Got mine in the mail today!
I went with the Cardinal and the quality of the denim feels superb and really like the weight of it.
Pretty solid fit with the slim, though I imagined it be a little more tapered at the end than it is. Glad I measured like 5 times before ordering lol. Hopefully it tightens up when I wash it, but just a tiny bit would be perfect.
But that wont be for months, since you're not supposed to wash them for a while right?
As for when to wash it, that's a hotly contested topic. My advice is to wash when it needs to be washed. More info here: http://putthison.com/post/49940267405/should-i-really-wait-six-months-to-wash-my-jeans
