I just wanted to thank you. I enjoy your videos. They are not just conceal/carry they are alot of things that interest me and I like to watch. My second thank you is, I just received my first pair of Delta 2.0 and yes I did indeed use your code. I love them you are absolutely right! Thank you for your opinions, and your honesty. Keep up the good work.
I got ready to purchase the Delta 1.0 after your initial review but hesitated, and within a week they were replaced by the 2.0. I ordered a pair of the 2.0 and liked them so much I ordered another and asked for a third for Christmas! Christmas day (while I was showing off my pants to relatives) I found a pair of 1.0s on clearance ($26) and ordered those. I like them ok, but the thing I absolutely like best about the 2.0 is the "mag pocket", which of course the 1.0 doesn't have. I keep my iPhone 11 in the left mag pocket. When in a casual environment I keep a skeletool in my right lower side "tool pocket", but when in a more formal setting I slide it up to the mag pocket, where you carry yours. These pants are extremely versatile. I can wear them with a button up dress shirt and dress shoes for office setting or throw on some boots and polo shirt for semi casual, or tennis shoes and a tshirt for working or relaxing around the house. I'm definitely going to have to check out the Cutback for summer.
Bought 2 pairs on your rec on Wednesday. They arrived in 2 days with free shipping!!! Very cool. They are awesome pants I’ve been looking for something like this for awhile and after I wear them for a bit, may just have to buy more. Thanks for the video!
Just received my first pair of the delta stretch 2.0 and am extremely pleased with the fit, quality and features. Everything you said they were and more. Thank you for all the reviews on your channel and I am especially grateful for the discount code. Placing my order for 3 additional pairs of the pants now. 3 bags, the pants and a few accessories later I am sold on the Vertx product lines.
I’m 5’9” and wear a 36 and found the 36-30 too long and baggy for my taste. A quick trip to my tailor later and I love them. The pocket layout is perfect! Thanks for another great suggestion Mike.
Issac Gutierrez It depends. I’m on the heavy end of a 36 so the first pair was a little tight to carry appendix super comfortably. I grabbed another in 38 and it fits the waist much better when I carry, but they couldn’t take out enough fabric below the knee to make them have my perfect fit. But they are still fine. I just need to lose some weight and get to my real waist size so it’s not an issue lol
You are very detailed in your review. The crouch length is important. Also I love the items you use for reference to size & depth ( aka glock 17 mag/ AR mag) . Tactical pants have improved with time, they are my go to travel & everyday pants. They are now more streamline, that was my gripe with the old Tac pants. Keep up the great reviews.
Thanks for the review! I have multiple pairs of the Delta and they have been my daily wear for the past two years during the cooler months. Those small side "knife" pockets are a must have for me and the way I carry my gear. I did kinda dig the leather, so it's good to see they'll bring it back from time to time, hopefully with more colors. These were already the perfect pant for me, the extra back pockets put these over the top perfect. It's great to know that Vertx listens to their customers, and I'm glad you have their ear because your assessment of these pants is spot on for my uses.
Adam Kreuz you can find the old ones for 30 bucks on optics planet and a couple other places.. These one are not even close to as good! And the pleets are unfunctional cause they stitched them in.
I bought the delta stretch and love them. If you’re use to a slimmer cut pant, these are as slim as vertex makes, which isn’t very slim. I had my tailor make some adjustments and now they are perfect.
I’m really liking my 5.11 Quest pants: tapered legs; nice pockets (little difficult placing my knife in the pocket, though, IMHO); super comfortable/no binding; stretchy material on medial legs. Bought a pair in all 4 colors. (No hidden handcuff key pocket that I’m aware of 🤔) Full disclosure: I have nothing to disclose. No conflicts...just a satisfied customer. Really appreciate LLOD content.👍🏻
I truly love the Delta Stretch 2.0, the Mag pocket fits even the largest of phones, and is the best spot to store it in. They're tough as hell too, brutally used a pair for 2 years now and no rips at all. They're the perfect pant for a lot of reasons imo.
Thanks to these videos and subsequently discovering the Vertx delta stretch, I started wearing the 1.0 a year ago. Have since lost weight, reupped with the new 2.0s late last year. Great pair, my favorite by far.
I have the 2.0 my only concern are the mesh pockets, as they are nice I worry about them tearing and losing what's inside my pocket. Other than that they are great. Keep up the good reviews!
The exact reasons you like the pocket layout are my exact reasons. Hate two in one location. Love the offset so you don’t sit on it. Love concealing other than clip so you can still look professional in an office setting. Love the zipper pocket when I don’t want to carry a wallet through airport I can zip stuff in and not worry about it falling out. I like a shorter fly so I’m not zipping my 🥜 though. I’m trying these with your core. Thanks bro! Great vid!
I tried out the first gen delta stretch pants because of you and honestly they’re best pants I’ve ever owned so far so bought a second pair because they’re were on sale. Maybe next Black Friday or a good sale I’ll try the delta 2.0 🤙🏼. My only gripe is i wish they made them in more colors.
I bought all 3 colors of the 2.0s and used your code (saved me a good chunk of $), that was a couple weeks ago. I absolutely love the new "mag pockets." I didn't know they weren't on the 1.0 but I'd hate to give them up. Just like you said, it allows me to put on a few more things/tools without sitting on them, especially if they have a clip. It's also a bit more private because my shirt often covers it, I can keep my PM2 (CPM S35VN btw) a little more hidden if need be. I also hang my work badge from this pocket and it doesn't bounce around much with my leg movement or look too silly way down near my knee. I also got the same belt you are using but I'm disappointed in the sizing, I think I need a size down from my pant size of 32 waist. Keep the great recommendations coming, you're awesome and I can't wait till I have a truck rigged out like you too!
I do love these pants. You should totally talk them into doing the exact same in shorts. Though 99% of the time I’m in pants it would be nice to throw a pair of shorts on for a weekend of overlanding in the summer
I bought two pair based off your review. They are my most comfortable pants but they are too baggy for my frame. I miss having atleast one cargo pocket. My journey continues for the ultimate everyday pants
I got a pair of the 1.0, never heard of them until I watched your video. They are my go to pants, most comfortable pants I own. My Carhartt pants are collecting dust.
Great vid and review, LLOD!!! I've worn the 1.0's for the last 8 years and was in the market to replace a few that now have iron on patches over rips and tears. Thanx especially for the 25% off at Vertx...saved me a ton of bucks and I do like the fact that the utility pockets on the 2.0s don't have the leather...that leather was nice at first but it stretches out the belt clip of anything you try and slip over it! But now the 2.1s have it again so I guess I'm stuck with them again as Vertx doesn't have anymore 2.0s.... I snooze, I lose. Again, great vid and fringe benefit discount!
@@whatfreedom7 After a wash and dry the material tightens up a bit but after wearing them for an hour or so they pants feel and fit exactly the same as when I originally got them. I do not think that they shrink at all, just my opinion. If you get a pair, you wont be disappointed.
bought 4 pr of originals for $25 ea at end of year. They're great for stretch factor + can carry/distribute supertool 300, pocket knife, lighter, olight sii baton - no bulk, highly comfortable. Good review.
Just got a few pairs and love mine. I’m a 33x32 in regular slim fit jeans (with a LLOD aiwb G19 holster), with the Vertx I found that the 34x32 fits perfect with my setup!
Like you said, this is your preference as they work for you. Good review, good looking pants. The tactical pants I have gone with for many years now is the Tru-Spec 24-7 Rip Stop 65%/35% Poly/Cotton Tactical Pant, Stain Resistant, Water Resistant, with a loose fit (which you probably would not like), Expandable Waist Band, and multiple colors to choose from including Multicam. Oh yes with 16-pockets, including knee pockets, 4-magazine pockets inside the 2-cargo pockets, "very" deep front pockets for pocket carry as well, and even more pockets. My only complaint is the crotch hangs a little too low.
I like the pocket orientation but I think they look a little too much like jeans and may not be good for the office. I still really like the 5.11 chino for the office and the 5.11 stryke pants are still the best overall pants.
I have the 1.0's and love them. These 2.0s look great! I'm not a fan of all the color options though... The gray/charcoal ones look like they have different color stitching. Looks a little weird in photos. Thoughts?
I hope the mesh pocket lining proves to be durable. Sometimes I use an Alabama Kydex pocket holster, and it can be hard on the inside of pockets. The only thing keeping me from giving these pants a perfect "10", is that I do carry things in my back pockets; and I prefer flaps or some other means to secure at least one of the rear pockets. Nevertheless, after the video, I'm clicking on the link and ordering three pairs: if they have my size and the color I need.
I've tried several Vertx pants including this one, but I didn't like them too much. Fitment is very tight all throughout including the pockets. I'll stick to 5.11 unless I find another brand.
“I hope you’ve enjoyed staring at my crotch for 10 minutes” If I told you 10 years ago you’d say that to hundreds of people, you probably wouldn’t have believed me. Haha
I just purchased some 5.11 Stryke pants and really love them so far. The carhart cargo pants are great too. I use them when I'm working on fence and other farm work and they perform really well. I'll have to give these a try as well. Thanks for the info.
Delta Gnarly I started with the Stryke pants and moved to the Delta 1.0. The Stryke pants are lighter and give you more room all around. The material is also better suited for work around the house/farm. Love the Delta’s for work and going out.
Last Line Of Defense So far it is, down roughly 28 more pounds. I am trying to get to 175, so still have 25 to go. But great review, you literally just sold a ton of these pants for Vertx.
Thanks for the video Mike! These pants look a little to baggy around the calves/ ankles for my style, I know you're the pants expert so do you know of any with the same layout but "skinnier"? Thanks!
These do have some nice features. I’m sold. I owned the 5.11 tactical jeans and liked the yolk pockets, but the cuffs wore out in like 3 months. I’m just wondering if I can fit a “Silent Pocket” faraday phone pouch in the yolk pocket to keep my phone in. I also wish they came in a couple more colours such as classic denim and a black washed denim.
As a Delta v. 1 owner ... a couple questions: Are the v. 2 pants made of the same fabric? It looks different in your video? Second question: Are the leg openings the same size? I felt the v. 1 leg openings were a bit large and was looking for a trimmer fit overall (but not 'skinny'). Would be curious to know what the legs measure at the ankle, mid-calf and mid-thigh. Other than that, good review.
I'd like to see your opinion on the new 5.11 ABR Pro pants! I like everything besides the Velcro on the cargo pockets and stuff. I'll be sewing in buttons to replace that, but otherwise they are great so far.
I love the pocket layout on the deltas but they are a little too tight around the ankles for me. Does anyone know if the Cutback are wider around the bottom cuffs of the pants? Another issue I have wit the Delta is that the 34 length seems a little short. Never had this issue before from other companies.
I own all the colors of all the Delta Stretch and they are the best. Kuhl is the only thing that comes close. I'm glad the leather is gone for ease of use but I do like the way it looks. I also like the material of the 1.0 a little better and they feel a little more snug in the leg which I also liked better. I like the pocket lining of the 2.0 better. But overall the 2.0 is still amazing.
So are the only options for your smartphone in the main four pockets? Two fronts or two rears? Or will it fit in one of the back pockets or somewhere else? I've been wearing the KUHL pants with the slide in pocket on the side of your thigh which works well for me. If these had that plus the other pockets that I'm seeing on this video that would be the perfect combination for me.
I like your videos and I recently bought a few pairs of pants from delta and wanted to return one of the pairs because of the fit. Just and FYI, returns are a nightmare....they need to improve
Can't wait to try some of these...unfortunately, they are almost always out of stock in my size, and when I've found my size it's been in the wrong color. Popular pants, thanks in no small part to you, I'm sure. I've got my LLOD code ready and waiting. :)
@@El_Scorcho_ Good call. I checked there, too, but unfortunately they didn't have my size either. That said, that 25% off and a chance to support LLOD is worth using. :)
I like these in terms of comfort and stretchiness, but I'm more a fan of the Vertx Fusion stretch pants. I like the cargo pockets and kinda bummed the delta's don't have cargo pockets. Not carrying the Glock 19 anymore?
Its nice to see a pant that ive never seen or heard of but I dont think these are for me, Ill have to stick with my fjalraven keb/vidda pro vented and truspec xepeditions. After having pants that can vent it makes a world of difference in big temperature variances without having to change. I prefer to have boot hook loops or at least an adjustable cuff, cargo pocket(s), and vented thighs/crotch. If your in love with these id be very curious to see what you thought of some vidda pro vented pants.
I like the mesh, except it allows my phone screen to turn on and pocket dial on the emergency dialer too easily. Never had that issue in the older delta stretch. Gets annoying
After some extensive forensic research and review of the video, I have discovered they are the Columbia Fairbanks 503 Mid Shoe! www.columbia.com/mens-fairbanks-503-mid-shoe-1791231.html They also come as a full boot! www.columbia.com/mens-fairbanks-omni-heat-boot-1746011.html?cgid=footwear-men&dwvar_1746011_variationColor=384#start=0
Love these pants. The mag pockets work great for larger cellphones. No more sitting on my phone or scratching the screen with my keys!

how was the fit on the 36 waist?
Issac Gutierrez happy to help. And with the LLOD code it pretty much covered my tailoring costs.

Just received mine in the mail and these are awesome! Thanks for this review and for the promo code!
I really want the leather back on the pocket tips/mouths. That would just add more character to it. Love the addition of the mag pockets though.

What a great information it's hard for me to buy pants so these type of videos help me a lot and you really do a good job explaining them .
I just bought my first pair of these. I LOVE THEM! Thank you. I hate trying to find pants. I am going to be buying a few more pairs.
Are this pants water proof? Would like a casual look pants but water proof

MOUNTAINTRD - That’s my concern and what’s keeping me from buying. I hate mesh pockets.
I LOVE the 1.0s. Best pair of pants I've ever owned.
Looshbob I agree way better then the 2.0 I hate the mag pockets way to tactical for edc pants! I try hard not to look like a tactard
Like everything about these pants except for the baggy fit around the legs. Wish they could taper the legs down a bit.
Just want to say thank you for the code saved me $36 now we will see if I like the pants as much as everyone else does
I truly believe you should do a review on all their pants, its a must!
The exact reasons you like the pocket layout are my exact reasons. Hate two in one location. Love the offset so you don’t sit on it.

Awesome man, glad they're working out well for you!
watching this vid wearing the same jacket and a LLOD holster and wolf grey LLOD blue alpha gear belt. perfect EDC gear
guess i need the pants now
I do love these pants. You should totally talk them into doing the exact same in shorts. Though 99% of the time I’m in pants it would be nice to throw a pair of shorts on for a weekend of overlanding in the summer

I have two pair and absolutely love them. Most comfortable pants I have ever worn, great product.
Do they shrink?
@@whatfreedom7 After a wash and dry the material tightens up a bit but after wearing them for an hour or so they pants feel and fit exactly the same as when I originally got them. I do not think that they shrink at all, just my opinion. If you get a pair, you wont be disappointed.
Fusion LTs are nice too.
After viewing your review I bought a pair and absolutely love them thanks!
Glad you like em!
bought 4 pr of originals for $25 ea at end of year. They're great for stretch factor + can carry/distribute supertool 300, pocket knife, lighter, olight sii baton - no bulk, highly comfortable. Good review.
Just got a few pairs and love mine. I’m a 33x32 in regular slim fit jeans (with a LLOD aiwb G19 holster), with the Vertx I found that the 34x32 fits perfect with my setup!
LLOD so right! Pair #2 today! Thanks again!
Really like the new Wrangler all terrain pants. Extra pockets double knee. I wear them for work and really like them
I have a pair of each color and love the 2.0 seams like the material is slightly different... great review!
I've never bought a pair of pants without checking in with your reviews first.... now going to purchase the Delta 2.0s, Thanks 👍
how are they? durable around where packet clips would be?
I have the 2.0 and concur that they are functional, durable and comfortable.
I used to be a Vertx guy until 5.11 came out with their Apex pant. The best (for me) out there right now.
jonnyt16 I can’t wear anything 511 ! Just cause every vest wearing IDPA shooter wears them
Just ordered 2 pairs with your code, Thanks!
i wish the blue alpha gear belt came in multicam and multicam black
I’m wearing my new 2.0s as we speak, and love them! I’m going to order a couple more pairs(?). Thanks for the recommendation.
mburke1211 look on line you can find 1.0s for 24-30 bucks
Instead of 80
Just ordered a pair of the pants. Thinking about ordering the boots.
Still need to try these, on my list.
Hey Mike,
You should check out and review the new LA Police gear Jeans.
I bought a pair of those pants and they are my new favorite pants. For the price, I don’t believe they can be beat.
Hey some Duluth firehose stretch pants are 50 bucks on sale alot have even more features and will last longer
I'm a big fan of Mountain Hardwear Hiking pants.. their medium weight pants are indestructible.
Like you said, this is your preference as they work for you. Good review, good looking pants. The tactical pants I have gone with for many years now is the Tru-Spec 24-7 Rip Stop 65%/35% Poly/Cotton Tactical Pant, Stain Resistant, Water Resistant, with a loose fit (which you probably would not like), Expandable Waist Band, and multiple colors to choose from including Multicam. Oh yes with 16-pockets, including knee pockets, 4-magazine pockets inside the 2-cargo pockets, "very" deep front pockets for pocket carry as well, and even more pockets. My only complaint is the crotch hangs a little too low.
Yeah those are a good value pant if those are the features you're looking or!
Please do a review of the Vertx fury hard shell jacket! Really curious how that one fits.
It would be better if it had a blend of synthetic to make last longer but probably more comfortable then my Propper. I like the Khul revolver and 5.11
I like the pocket orientation but I think they look a little too much like jeans and may not be good for the office. I still really like the 5.11 chino for the office and the 5.11 stryke pants are still the best overall pants.
I wish they came out with a broader color range.
I have the 1.0's and love them. These 2.0s look great! I'm not a fan of all the color options though... The gray/charcoal ones look like they have different color stitching. Looks a little weird in photos. Thoughts?
now the 2.1 pants are out!
I hope the mesh pocket lining proves to be durable. Sometimes I use an Alabama Kydex pocket holster, and it can be hard on the inside of pockets.

if you haven't tried Triple Aught designs Icon RS Pant, i would highly recommend checking them out.
Own em, they're nice, but I don't like that they aren't stretch and don't have a pocket orientation that I like.
3 knives. Primary knife and a backup and a backup for the back up.
Great review! I think it's finally time I pick up a pair
I've tried several Vertx pants including this one, but I didn't like them too much. Fitment is very tight all throughout including the pockets. I'll stick to 5.11 unless I find another brand.
Try the VERTX FUSION STRETCH, you wont regret it. Theyre cut to accommodate big guys, or at least big quads/butt....
I like the LAPG operator pants with leg pockets. Those pants have 14 pockets, 16 if you count the knee pad pockets 🙂👍
“I hope you’ve enjoyed staring at my crotch for 10 minutes”
If I told you 10 years ago you’d say that to hundreds of people, you probably wouldn’t have believed me. Haha
I'd say "idk, my family would be pretty disappointed if I went into porn"
@@LastLineOfDefense 10 minutes? Stop bragging! Haha
They are great pants. Have a few. Wish the 2.0 came in od green
Yeah hopefully they release some more colors

I would definitely buy some of these, so might look into it after I am done losing weight. Don’t want to keep buying new pants.
Hope the weight loss journey goes well!
Last Line Of Defense So far it is, down roughly 28 more pounds. I am trying to get to 175, so still have 25 to go. But great review, you literally just sold a ton of these pants for Vertx.
These look awesome and I'd like to try them but they only come in 3 colors. The lack of a black/graphite is really disappointing.
Sure would be nice if they'd restock the sizes in that pants. They currently only carry some for fat, I mean stocky, guys.
Thanks for the video Mike! These pants look a little to baggy around the calves/ ankles for my style, I know you're the pants expert so do you know of any with the same layout but "skinnier"? Thanks!

@@LastLineOfDefense thank you so much! Just ordered a pair. Hopefully you home with an affiliate link! Thanks again!
Have the original Deltas, got them for $25 and they are great!
These do have some nice features. I’m sold. I owned the 5.11 tactical jeans and liked the yolk pockets, but the cuffs wore out in like 3 months. I’m just wondering if I can fit a “Silent Pocket” faraday phone pouch in the yolk pocket to keep my phone in. I also wish they came in a couple more colours such as classic denim and a black washed denim.
As a Delta v. 1 owner ... a couple questions: Are the v. 2 pants made of the same fabric? It looks different in your video? Second question: Are the leg openings the same size? I felt the v. 1 leg openings were a bit large and was looking for a trimmer fit overall (but not 'skinny'). Would be curious to know what the legs measure at the ankle, mid-calf and mid-thigh. Other than that, good review.
Ha!! I’m traveling through your state at the Denver airport, and guess what I’m sporting??
That’s right. Love these pants. Incredibly comfortable.
Hah nice!
What's the real difference between the Delta Stretch and the Cutbacks? Why would I wear one over the other?
I'd like to see your opinion on the new 5.11 ABR Pro pants! I like everything besides the Velcro on the cargo pockets and stuff. I'll be sewing in buttons to replace that, but otherwise they are great so far.
I love the pocket layout on the deltas but they are a little too tight around the ankles for me. Does anyone know if the Cutback are wider around the bottom cuffs of the pants? Another issue I have wit the Delta is that the 34 length seems a little short. Never had this issue before from other companies.
I own all the colors of all the Delta Stretch and they are the best. Kuhl is the only thing that comes close. I'm glad the leather is gone for ease of use but I do like the way it looks. I also like the material of the 1.0 a little better and they feel a little more snug in the leg which I also liked better. I like the pocket lining of the 2.0 better. But overall the 2.0 is still amazing.
@Michael Shearer Absolutely 100% true. I will say I love their 3D cell phone pocket they have.
Pants shots are helpful bruh 👌👌
So are the only options for your smartphone in the main four pockets? Two fronts or two rears? Or will it fit in one of the back pockets or somewhere else? I've been wearing the KUHL pants with the slide in pocket on the side of your thigh which works well for me. If these had that plus the other pockets that I'm seeing on this video that would be the perfect combination for me.
I’ll have to check out cutbacks. I have 2 pair of the Delta 1.0
Hope I'm not too late for a request but I think you should do some reviews on a couple of the new pants from 5.11 like the abr pro and icon!
Always liked your channel. Keep it up 🇺🇸 ✊
I like your videos and I recently bought a few pairs of pants from delta and wanted to return one of the pairs because of the fit. Just and FYI, returns are a nightmare....they need to improve
Try Tactical Distributors Cordell tactical pants. I have a pair and love them!
Wish I could get them in black
Can't wait to try some of these...unfortunately, they are almost always out of stock in my size, and when I've found my size it's been in the wrong color. Popular pants, thanks in no small part to you, I'm sure. I've got my LLOD code ready and waiting. :)
Amazon has them as well. Cant use the code but they might have your size.
@@El_Scorcho_ Good call. I checked there, too, but unfortunately they didn't have my size either. That said, that 25% off and a chance to support LLOD is worth using. :)
You should review the Viktos Contractor AF pants
Awesome, just ordered 2 pair!
Out of stock, no back order, everywhere :(
For 32x32 tobacco color
That side zippered pocket is perfect for carrying a ruger or bodyguard 380 james bond style. Great review .
Haha Bond, James Bond
I like these in terms of comfort and stretchiness, but I'm more a fan of the Vertx Fusion stretch pants. I like the cargo pockets and kinda bummed the delta's don't have cargo pockets. Not carrying the Glock 19 anymore?
So no room for a pocket pistol ( lcp, P938, CSX) in front pocket?
Are the cut backs the same cut, as far as fit?
Pants!!! LoL I haven’t put on pants in 5 days! I consider this winning!
Keep up the strong work! Watching from Boston.
Its nice to see a pant that ive never seen or heard of but I dont think these are for me, Ill have to stick with my fjalraven keb/vidda pro vented and truspec xepeditions. After having pants that can vent it makes a world of difference in big temperature variances without having to change. I prefer to have boot hook loops or at least an adjustable cuff, cargo pocket(s), and vented thighs/crotch. If your in love with these id be very curious to see what you thought of some vidda pro vented pants.
Any tips on vented pants for a more formal look? Been looking around with no luck.
I like the mesh, except it allows my phone screen to turn on and pocket dial on the emergency dialer too easily. Never had that issue in the older delta stretch. Gets annoying
Another great review!
Will the cutback work in hot weather in Florida? Thanks
Have these in 34x34 (195, 6’0) and love em
What shoes are those in the beginning??
I have three pair of the Delta stretch 1.0 and hands down the best pair of pants I have ever owned. I was spying those shoes as well.
After some extensive forensic research and review of the video, I have discovered they are the Columbia Fairbanks 503 Mid Shoe! www.columbia.com/mens-fairbanks-503-mid-shoe-1791231.html They also come as a full boot! www.columbia.com/mens-fairbanks-omni-heat-boot-1746011.html?cgid=footwear-men&dwvar_1746011_variationColor=384#start=0
Thanks for that size reference, man!
What shoes are you wearing in the beginning?
