    If could help you, i've got a pair of cargo pants who are marked "MU" which is 52% cotton and 48% nylon. They are absolutely NOT stretchy.
    I never handled the other fabrics but i know the composition of TE and P
    TE = 97% Cotton 3% Rubber
    P = 98% Cotton 2% Spandex

      thanks, might try that version. the reason i'm asking this weird question btw is that i don't really like how the stretchy F fabric is acting when i walk (talking about pods). they're super comfy and stretchy which is very helpful with that cut, but the way they drape when i walk, idk maybe it's just me... but my knees make the crotch area stretch and bounce in the weirdest way possible, it's like i'm moving in slow-mo but the crotch drapes in 60 fps! omg does that description make any sense?.. so i thought that maybe the more restrictive fabric will take that crotch action away.

        Bought a jacket from ragtagonline @ ebay last week, shipping was supposed to be free of charge. I received the jacket yesterday and was happy, but today I got a text message from DHL asking me to pay $40 for the shipping. Is there anything I can do? Not that much money but I feel a bit fooled. :/

          That could be not a shipping charge but a customs duties charge.

            Yeah, that is what makes me so confused. I talked to the girl at DHL, she is the one that told me? Well, well :)

                Hey guys, I'm looking to grab a pair of ZB's Elevated DNAs. Specifically these:
                Zam Barrett Dialogue is an Artisanal Clothing and Accessories Brand for Men and Women. The company is based on Brooklyn, NEW YORK and all our products are made on-site by a team of skilled artisans under the direct supervision of the designer.


                I'm in Canada, and was wondering if anyone knows what kind of customs I'll have to pay on these?

                Also does anyone have an idea about whether these are a size 46 when it's on the second (tighter) button, or on the looser one?

                It's been a while since I've splurged on some ZB pants. Also wondering if the measurements on the website are pretty close to what it is on the final product? Does 16" waist mean it was measured with waistbands aligned etc?

                Apologies for the barrage of specific questions, and appreciate any help that anyone can give me!

                    Zam himself is on the forum, maybe you can shoot him a PM or just send his team an email! They've always been great with responding!

                        If you order from Zam and live in Canada, I wouldn't expect you'll be paying much.

                        Although ever since we replaced North Korea in the U.S.'s Axis of Evil, who knows.

                              Since Zam's products are made in the US, they qualify under NAFTA and are thus exempted from duties. I received several packages from ZB over the years and never paid duties. You might have to pay taxes, though, but that varies based on luck. The amount would be whatever tax rate it is in your province.
