  1. i traded sizes on a crewneck once... didnt bother taking any precautions and i sent first, but everything worked out alright

    that's cause I'm legit

    best method is to exchange all info, ship same time, and make sure you're dealing with a well-known, public member w/ refs. Its the obscure ones that'll rip you off for the most part (excepting anxtang and stuckonstupid).

  2. Hot soaked once, hung dry. Worn about 15-20 days...slight wallet fade, very slight fade in a few spots around the stacks, belt loop, seams. Creases are there, but will reset once you soak/wash these again (which I would recommend, but couldn't do since they're too snug on me).

    Apologies for terrible lighting, camera, and photo skills. I've tried to accurately capture the color, but it's eluded me. They really aren't as worn as they look in the pics.

    Measurements:

    16" waist (across)

    10" rise

    36" inseam

    Looking for 250 shipped or trade for similar condition 31s (will add cash if new).

  3. i think the differences might be that:

    1) mine have only been soaked once

    2) height/amount of stacking plays into it...with more stacking on a shorter person, the jeans look a bit baggier

    3) i got thunder thighs

    4) I wear my jeans pretty low...if I pulled them to actual waist level they actually look much slimmer.

  4. No pics up, but if you're interested pm and I can take some. Condition is like-new, used a few times but still excellent. Softest suede you've ever felt, blue bead detailing, and ridiculously lightweight and comfortable.

    Looking for $500 shipped domestically (US retail + free shipping). Way cheaper than plainflour, proxy, or even buying at Union/Undefeated.

  5. quick poll for those who have it/felt it in person. MA-1, worth the 220?

    pros: cotton instead of nylon, better-fitting alternative to mil-spec, supleme tab

    cons: expensive for light spring jacket (it's pretty light, right?)

  6. yeah truthfully I'm not sure what my natural waist is anymore...but that's what I wear in most normal khakis, chinos, shorts, etc.

    I hot soaked, stuck a spatula in the waist and wore them on my hips (painfully) for a few days. now they're comfy. will probably do another hot soak soon though to try and shrink the thigh area.

    Samurai denim does stretch, a lot. so long as you wear them where you want they'll strech to it w/ a little time.
