From 501 STF's to 511 Rigids? - Page 2

If you upsize or not on 511s depends on if you want a "fitted" look or a "skinny" look. I'm about average build, not super skinny (6'2+, 200 lbs.) and 511s in 34 x 34 are definitely skinny jeans, but wearable for me. I wouldn't want to upsize. I have two pairs of 514s as well for wearing with boots. Keep in mind the 511s will loosen up some after a few wears and not be quite as clingy.

Have you bought the 511's in rigid? How much do they shrink?

i dunno, normal i guess? heres a pic from my last waywt post, judge for yourself;

and i dont own any 511's anymore, but i think they're a great jean for someone who wants to spend under $30, but not look like they're wearing dad jeans.

last i checked, the proper waist size for me was like 31, but the calfs were too tight, so i'd size up to 33. and that size fit similarly to the APC's in my picture above.

Are those fading well? I'm debating picking up another pair of raw jeans or altering my APC NSs.

kinda, not sure where they're supposed to be after 4 months. i'm not really that active in them though, mostly just walking to and from things (like class and the store)

those photos actually look a bit washed out, its a bit more contrasty in real life.

My fault, I thought that original pic was of 511s. I have APC NSs that are coming together pretty well, but they are too baggy in the bottom block. Just looking for some alternatives...

if the 511 rigids are anything like the 514 tumbled rigids (which i had a while back and pretty much only use for yardwork nowadays) they fade slow as
