Hello nevermind.
I was kinda wondering the same thing as zeitgeistist (Zeth I believe?) if you aren't too busy to make a pair and sell? I'm kind of on a low budget and the CCP jeans are too damn expensive.
Black unprocessed denim with black seams for this would be super. Maybe a little bit slimmer than yours.

What would it cost to have them made and shipped to Sweden you think?

I think Zam gave his estimates somewhere. Maybe he can post here again.

Well It depends on the method you use, Poell's Jeans are part artisanal (Part Factory made?) so on rough calculations, i am assuming about 2 hours, (bearing in mind the complexity in creating his signature asymmetrical, welt/patch pockets and that certain parts of his garments are hand sewn). I made an Overlock cotton pinstripe pants for myself awhile back and it took me about 4-hours to do, because i took great care in making them and fully lining them with silk Georgette. I haven't worn them as yet. I will wear them with my Margiela Dinner Shirt with embroidered bib when Lady- Z comes to town next month.

For someone with basic sewing skills making them entirely by machine should take about 3-4hours maximum, Albert's took a lot longer because he sew the overlock stitches entirely by Hand!!!!!!!![79] ................... admire him for that kind of patience and dedication.

Didn't Albert also line his pants as well? Entirely consructed by hand? Oi!

^yep!

To create the twist of the CCP pants/jeans you have to fully line them. The twist is generated by offsetting the lining with the outer layer and then stitching them together. It's a bit tricky because you have to think about the silhouette and how much fabric will be "used up" by the twisting while retaining a slim leg look and feel! Tricky, but definitely do-able!
