I was just in BIG today and the somets are awesome. The guy working wasn't helping me out much though. But I tried on the 003's in a 32 and they were kind of tight. I should have picked up the 33's when I was in there but I just ordered them. I'll post up fit pics when they come in.

How do you guys wear the 008's. I have some 003's that are crazy low rise. I'm kind of liking the fit but the rise is just way to low. I don't think the 008's would cover ******.

I just got some 008's from a member. I do love the denim and the fit on the legs, but the rise is crazy low. I suspect I will wear them with longer shirts and dark underwear

BTW I wear an APC NS 28 and NC 29. And I got the Somets 008 in a 28 and feel that they are the right size. IMO, they fit somewhere in the middle between the two APC cuts in terms of slimness. The rise is definitely lower than both APC's. I hope this helps.

I'm looking to buy a pair of 008 raw slims. I wear sz 30 kmw rockers, should I go for size 29 or size 28?

Holy **** the size 28 is tight! I can hardly bend my knees, these are torture. They look ******* great. Balls, completely cleaved. Almost superfuture fit. Hope to god they stretch.

The 008 and 018 both have knee darts. I'm not sure what they do, possibly prevent knee bags?

edit: it isn't clear because I originally mentioned the 008, but those are the 018 = slim blacks. They look blueish in the picture due to weird lighting.

I have the same ones, they're up for sale but if they don't sell this month, I'm keeping them.

WTF? I would have bought them if I saw them, I checked B&S for all somets...

edit: I think I did see your page, but I thought that since you didn't reply they were gone.

eason is your pair tight in the waist as well? In my experience they don't stretch a whole lot. I sized down several sizes as well on recommendation from the somet manager but they ended up too tight and didn't stretch enough in the waist. Now they're up for sale. The legs were good for me though, so I don't know if this applies to you.
