IMO it just isn't imperial without the back pocket stitching.

Wow... These might actually fit me. 37" inseam is what I need and my thighs are 24". How much do they taper? (the King's) My thighs are pretty solid right through (22" midthigh).

I usually wear size 32 waist in your typical off the shelf jeans down at the department store. Do Imperial fit much the same? Just size up to 33 to account for shrinkage?

Apologies for all the questions. Just that I can't believe I might have found the right jean... Straight fit, nice and long, very relaxed 'tube' legs... Only problem might be the rise. It's huge.

Edit: Nevermind about the waist size part of my question - found the actual waist measurements on the site.

Thanks Kiya. Been browsing the forum and noticed what a huge asset you are to this place - so I ordered a set of black Imperial Kings from you

. My first "real" denim. I'm such a hulking big sod I'll probably make them look like skinny jeans

Good fit dude.

I want some shearers, indigo and black.

From the measurements they look like they should fit sweetly. I like a longer rise, something different.

Will deffinitly be getting atleast a pair each of them this year kiya.

Just took delivery of Imperial Kings in Black.

I think they fit good. Should I do a cold soak to minimise shrinkage or is it safe to go all the way?
