Ask and ye shall recieve...Here are some fit pics with the 811s...probably even worse than the last set, apologize for the quality again, let someone borrow my camera and the lighting was terrible.

The 811 is basically a straight leg cut compared to the 1101s. Slimmer in the thigh and wider at the hem. These are 8.5" at the hem.

just bought a pair of BIG660s...recently discovered that the 1966 cut works well for me so I had to check these out

those are the exact measurements I need for maximum comfort. Mind taking a measurement across the top block at the bottom button hole?

Here you go mate, measured flat across the bottom button. 22 inches

I dunno guys, I'm really liking the fit on my 1101s. Been wearing them for almost a week now and they are the most comfortable jean I've ever had...more comfortable than my sz33 Eternal 811s. The color of the denim is incredibly deep

I gave em a good soaking with lots of agitation to get maximum shrinkage. Here are the measurements:

1101 size 32

Pre Soak/Post Soak

Waist - 35/33

Front Rise - 11.6/10.6

Rear Rise - 16/15

Thigh - 13.25/12.5

Knee - 9.5/9

Hem - 8.25/8

Inseam - 34/31.75

And here are some really atrocious fit pics, my apologies for the terrible quality

size 33 s0500xx are now drying after hot soak...can't wait...tried them on a little and they fit perfectly!

can you post BIG style measurements on those when they're dry? Specifically interesting in thigh and leg opening. Thanks

I dunno, might stretch a bit, but still thighs look too tight to get that fit, I think you would be better 1 size up without sacrificing too much of the slim look

^^ Only gripe is that they are a little loose around the arse.

Nice fits on those, might actually work well for me then...I have a fat arse!

I promise that the taper doesn't feel as drastic when wearing the 1101 as it looks on paper. It took a little getting used to for me but now it's all good.

Sweet, this pushed me over the edge. Order placed for a size 32 1101

I guess I'll give the 1101 in sz32 a shot, was initially afraid of the taper, but for the measurements I am looking for it's probably my best bet. Thanks for the help

Need advice on what cut would fit me better 1101 vs 1108. I have Eternal 811 in size 33 but would prefer a slimmer look from the knee down. I have Somet 005 size 31 and would prefer higher rise, need more room for my junk. I have Skull 5010XX 6x6 size 33 and would prefer higher rear rise.

I like the 1108 cut better in general, but am afraid of having enough room for my thighs, looking for 12-12.5" thigh post soak/stretch with an 8" leg opening.

So should I go with 1101 sz31 or sz32? Or 1108 sz33?

my 500XX W32 stretched to 33.5

Any chance you could get a BIG style thigh measurement? I've got 32 waist but big thighs

Cool thanks for the replies. I might try sz32 in 0500XX

I have the 811BG onewash version so it was basically full shrinkage when I got it. I also wish they were a little slimmer knee down, which looks like the 0500XX is going to be if I get sz32. Also like the fact that it would be a touch lower rise, the Eternals fit a little high on my waist. Thigh measurement is identical.

811BGRAW sz33

waist: 34

front: 11.75

rear: 16

thigh: 12.75

knee: 9.5

hem: 8.75

0500XX sz32

waist: 34

front: 11.25

rear: 15.75

thigh: 12.75

knee: 9.25

hem: 8.5

Any comparisons of the stretching of Eternal 811s vs 0500XX denim? Thanks again.

Need advice on sizing for Samurai 0500XX from BIG. size 31 or 32?? (I have big thighs)

For reference I'm wearing these right now:

Somet 005 sz31 - these are the perfect silhouette, but too low rise, need more room for my junk and a bit more in the thigh too

Eternal 811 sz33 - These are great fit, but silhouette is not as nice as Somet.

Probably, I think the inseam goes up in 1inch increments. So Med=28in, Large=29in.

But I could be wrong, there isn't a whole lot of info available.

They have elastic on the hem, they're meant to tuck into boots. I'm pretty short, the inseam is ~27inch and the pants go just above my ankles, this is on a "small" its a 30inch true waist

Found some French Combat Trousers at an army surplus store. Sorry for the supremely shitty quality pics, no real camera at the moment. Pretty good for $10

Anyone ever dub / put on some obenaufs on a pair of sand suede? Wondering if it darkens them.

Was done here on sand suede DBs https://lineageofinfluence.wordpress.com/2011/02/08/waxing-my-desert-boots-operation-clarks/

Had a pair of Taupe Suede DBs that I wasn't wearing often enough so I decided to put some wax on: http://www.90thidpg.us/Equipment/Projects/Dubbing/index.html

One coat of wax on the left

After one week of wear

Overall its not bad, but I wouldn't do it unless you don't care about the suede losing it's texture. They're water resistant now, but heavy rain will still fuck em up.

If you do this, put LESS wax on the toe cap and heel cup since there is reinforcement there the wax doesn't absorb well in those areas and if you put too much they will look darker than the rest of the shoe

i sold my magic flight launch box because i really just like smoking a joint.

Ya I prolly wouldn't have bought it myself but it was a gift. I feel like it gives me a different high. I think I peak really quickly so it kinda catches me off guard sometimes and then it goes away as fast where as joints, bongs, or blunts I'm chillin for a while. Also you don't get the satisfaction of thick smoke etc.

Magic Flight Launch Box. Its a portable vape, and damn good. Runs on batteries. Has a ceramic element under the screen. It's not volcano or anything but shit is tiny and way cheaper.

^^ Ya same here, just finishin up first quarter of grad school, its a bitch. But my gf got me one of these:

shit got me wayyyy higher than expected the first time, I was not prepared for that.

I'm hoping this hasn't been mentioned, but for anyone with a grinder-

Throw it in the freezer for ~15 min, take it out, and slam it down a few times or hit it or whatever you feel like. When you're done, most of the kief from the screen will have fallen into the catch and voila.

went from absolutely no kief to enough to top 4 or so bowls with.

Just thought I'd share as I'm currently enjoying the results.

You're right!! wow I just added a nice layer of keif to my stash, never knew about this little magic trick. Added bonus it makes scraping up a breeze too cuz it doesn't stick as much.

yes
