He just proved you wrong idiot. Dior is slim regardless of sizing.


I'm done with this fool.

IIn keeping with the OP:
I'd vote to put Levis 511s, currently my favorite, around 3 or 4 (?).

But what we're focusing on is the major changes in ratio when switching jean fits. Unfortunately I don't own any of these or have experience with what is considered slim, but I'm sure those in the know could rate jeans slimness by looking at different pairs on same size mannequins. What would be nice would be to see jeans sized up and sized down on same sized mannequins, to determine exactly how sizing up/down changes silhouette.
This was more along the lines I was going for. A lot of people, myself included, want to know how jean x compares to jean y etc. I just thought it would be nice to have a resource that answers a lot of those questions (like shoe's just now). Let's try and keep the flames down though if we could.

So what does the list look like so far? I'm interested in seeing how this shapes up, myself.

I'm trying to keep the list is updated on the first page. I don't own any NSs or Diors though (they'd be too slim for me I think), so I'm not sure where to put them. For those that do, feel free to thrown a number down. We can discuss it and move accordingly. I'd rather discussion move based on something like that than grammar

pening) but maybe we can compare jeans with ratios like these (and maybe there is a better way to do the ratio to get more applicable figures?)

Just because I don't want to waste my time with an idiot who has nothing better to do doesn't mean I can't pwn you...again.

Take your loss and run. You already look like a dick for bragging about having 5 pairs of diors like somebody gives a **** and resorting to the "you can't spell" defense.

What you should do is shut the **** up and stop ******* up the OP's thread. He is trying to provide a resource that, even though it has been attempted before, could still be useful.

Not black or angry. Please try again.

BTW. edit your post before thekunk starts bitching about your spelling.

Easy guys. This is all about preference/what can you fit in to? I fit fine into my size 34 S0500's, but can't come close to getting into the size 34 SDA 103's I just got from Japan. Sizing advice on SUFU did nothing to helping me realize this. WTF. Trial and error reins supreme... (anyone want these?...I can't post in the FS thread for some reason...brand new, never soaked/washed)

if you would shut up, we could move on. i'm not sure how I lost and I think you should stick to selling armwarmers. but thank you for taking the time to spell correctly.
