Considering a pair of Flat Head 1001's. Anyone know what size I would take if I wear 31 in Sugar Canes and Iron Heart? Having a tough time deciding between a 33 or a 32 in the Flat Head. Looking for a fit without much (if any) sag.

Also, will the 1001's continue to shrink after the first warm soak? I've read that FH denim stretches a little, but not much. Mostly wondering whether the first soak gets all the shrink out.

Thx.

xx-011 is tapered, but you can go to any tailor to get the 005s tapered from the knee

my thread was locked for asking this question what jean is this?

Before anyone says it, yes he looks like a complete tool. I've been looking for slim fitting jeans in that dark color haven't had any luck, though

http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do...scid=772246002 Looks like Gap just released some black coated jeans in the skinny fit. I was excited until I saw all of the superfluous pocket details.

Any thoughs on the acne raw generic boy? A couple pairs for sale around $100 near my house, and wondering if they're a good buy. I have no experience with acne.

I have a couple of pairs of Acne Mic's in raw denim and am very happy with the fabric, fit and construction, especially at around $100. They run true to size in raw denim, they were loose on me at first but shrank to fit perfect after one wash.

Man just ******* try them on. Sizing changes by the year and it's always

no matter what.

That said, '66 are pretty slimish but I guess you could size down one or two (if you are a masochist), but really just try them on. PM Pablo T about this though.

Maybe this has already been asked/answered, but is there a particular reason why black Diors don't stretch as much as the indigos?

ugg, pocket rivet fell off brand new skull 5507s. Have only soaked and worn around apartment for a few hours. Hopefully I can get it back on with just a hammer, BiG is going to try and send me a replacement.

Btw, thanks again to mlyngard for the rec, the cut is closer to what I want than anything else I've had or tried. Still a bit large in the waist and a little snug just below the hips, but I always have this problem and it is less off than usual.

Also, these skulls have a massive amount of (loose) indigo, tub was way darker than other soaks(kmw, aw, apc). Anxious to wear them, but I need to wait to repair the rivet, and besides that I just started at the hospital and have to wear scrubs 5days a week, so it is going to be a long break in process.

Just different denim, like the Italian vs. Japanese stretching

i pretty much only wear Levi 511's for streetwear, but im currently looking for something just slightly more relaxed that will also look good wearing a polo shirt. any suggestions (denim or other) for the same price range as the Levi's?

Wise words. You can downsize quite severely on the 66, I would recommend by one inch from measured size for a slim fit. But best by far to try them on.

OMG Paul T just pseudo-reped me.

Flat Head 1001's pre-soak.

Are these a good pre-soak fit, or should I go down another size?
