...good fit...

35, get 34. 36, get 35. it would be a slim fit. if you want a slim fit with a tad of room go true to size. looks pretty good in those too!

...what he said...

Hey guys, how do the black skulls fade if they do?

I've barely seen any fit pics of these.

...they fade pretty good... but they take a LONG time to do so...

Kiya -

...got a FH ring as a BDay gift from my girlfriend last week... She relayed to me how great you guys were in getting it to her...

The only negative thing it´s that the cover is not true leather!

...true...

if it was, then we could display on this thread and not just in the background...

And the stitching seems to be not as strong as other jeans.

..true...

as evidenced by my having to get the crotch and front pocket stitching reinforced...

Yeah, I realize it was set in the 50's, but still... I didn't expect such authenticity from a lowbrow comedy. Not a bad movie, though.

Custom belt, 6 months wear,

I´ve recently changed the buckle for a quick release one but I think I´m going back to a traditional one.

...nice belt... not to mention the doors LP box set in the background...

Thanks for the opinions guys. It's probably my thighs I'm worries about most - not my waist. For example my new standards in a 32 I could go smaller in the waist still (it's stretched to 36), but no slimmer in the thigh area. Thinking a 34 might be best in these for this reason.

I know these stretch out a bit,. but more specifically, do they stretch much in the thigh area?

if that's the case, then I'd definitely go with the 34... I'm a 31 in New Standards and a got a 33 in the 5010's and the thighs are the area where it's the most snug...

...i've worn mine on and off for the better part of a year and a half, and the thighs have stretched a tad...

Apc NS sz 28 or NC sz 30?

...what specific qualities are you looking for? more details...

i just bought some 007's and i was wondering what do you guys think of the straight leg all the way through to the leg opening?

i was trying to look for a tapered look and was thinking of getting them tailored..but i dont really know any good tailoring spots in socal. your advices will help =]

...if you're down for a little drive, check out Hollywood Trading Company on Beverly & Martel in LA... it's been referenced on SuFu countless times and many people (including myself) can vouch for them...

Kiya -

Will you guys be getting restocks of the SC black studded belt anytime soon?

Also on another note, his crimey who was always fucking up the magazine order was played by the real DeAndre McCullough from The Corner

...that's right... totally forgot about that... good stuff...

don't taper.

...why would you advise against it?

...so ive seen that quite a few pages back that people have had their 005's tapered... I've grown a little tired of the fit on me, so I'm about to do the same...

curious to know what l/t affects of tapering would be on wear and fading (or anything else, for that matter), if any?

any help would be greatly appreciated...

with regards to BiG and self edge whose measurements for skulls are more correct as they are different

self edge

BiG

...I got mine from BiG and the measurements seemed spot-on...

Selfedge and BiG both do not have my size in the 5010, where else can I order from without spending countless hours translated japanese characters?

Also on sizing, I think I'll go true to size.

...those are the only 2 places that sell skulls in the US as far as I know...

I actually sized down 1 and it worked out fine... you can go true to size, but you can also size down 1 without any problem IMO...

Tapering

With regards to fading, is it ever too late to taper? Specifically, would the wear shift if tapering was done pretty far along the fading process?

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

despite what it said online,

order came in last night

i got everything packaged up and shipped out this morning

...got my stuff yesterday, James... thanks for the usual great service...

5010's x-posted from the evolution thread...

skull 5010xx

worn on and off for about a year and a half...

...you'll love this... great purchase...

...just got notified that my newly-reinforced skulls are ready to be picked up from HTC... pics to follow...

I could say a lot, but the main thing is to hear Lee Morgan and Freddie Hubbard playing on the same record, sounding so astonishingly different, but perfectly wondrous in their own ways.

2 of my all-time faves...

...this unto itself is worth the price of admission... didn't even think that this ever happened...
