Any chance you can get a closeup of the patch? I suppose I can wait a few more days, though... haha.

They're looking great.

Oh, I thought it was going to have details and the number back there? Maybe I'm confused. Anyhow, the close up shots look awesome... can't wait to get my hands on my own pair.

I am speaking out of place but I believe the first 9 do not have markings on the patch and this is theoretically #6. The others have a number branded on them.

Haha, the rises are pretty ******* similar, but whatever helps you sleep at night.

If you can't see the overall difference in your own photos I don't know what to tell you. It could simply be how you wear them, but half the whiskers on those cheap mondays are below the crotch and thats just sunset strip gross.

I think the first 9 unbranded ones (maybe not necessarily #s 1-9) are still in Mauro's hands though.

everything up top is pretty snug, but the actual waist itself is a tad loose on me (i float between 31 and 32). i could suck it up and button a 31, but then everything else would be too tight. i think once the top block settles in and they drop a little it will probably even out. i kind of prefer it like this because i think it'll keep the stretching to a minimum in the long run.

if you look at the bottom right corner, you can make out the 6. there's definitely something next to it, but it could pass as a 1, 4, or 9 depending on the angle.

This sounds like Mauro was on to something when he told me to go TTS while Get Smart suggested sizing down one. I never did trust that slimey Asian bastard. Then again, I have a feeling this stuff is really going to stretch.
