looks good but you missed a measurment there. "?" the idea would be really cool but then you might get people who want to fuck with measurments and shit.

Yeah, if this gets off the ground, editing would probably be restricted to registered users.

yeah but we can do better than 'the honda civic of blahblahblah'

i need eyebleach for that cheesy shit.

Hey, I'm just putting this out there because I thought there might be demand for something like this. If you guys are interested, feel free to continue. I definitely don't have anywhere near the amount of passion or knowledge needed to create this thing in its entirety.

this kid just wants a lot of rep, and fast.

Hah, I really don't care about rep, but sure why not? I just figured it'd be fun, and I've never started an internet project before. If there's no interest, it's no big deal since I can probably find something else to do with it. At the very least I finally got off my figurative ass to install php and mysql on my server, something I've been meaning to do for a long time.

I've recently been looking into buying a new pair of jeans. As I was researching, I realized that I needed to know the measurements since I was looking for a very specific fit (I went from skull 5010XX -> flat head 3001 -> julian red hobo), and it sucked having to hop from site to site looking for measurements. Wading through all the megathreads here, while interesting, took too much time. I was surprised that there was no database for denim buying advice, so I decided maybe it's time to create one in the form of a wiki. I have a lot of spare bandwidth lying unused, so I figure I can volunteer my webserver for this. I've already set it up and created a sample page of stuff that I think would be useful:

Any interest?

Grrrr.... really fucking tempted on the Julius jacket. Is it still pending sale?

morning bump

Could we get an update on what's still available?

I've been looking at Flat Head measurements, and I realized that the sz28 3001 model might be bigger than I'm looking for. So I'm starting my search for a new pair of jeans all over again. Given these measurements, what jeans should I get?

Waist: 27

Thighs: 9-9.5 in across

Knees: 7 in across

Hem: 6.5-7 in across

Seems like New Cure fits the bill. Is there anything else?

pm'ed about wood wood cardi. (ignore the first two as I didn't get the prices right)

Too late, but thanks for your interest!

Thanks for the warning. Longevity is definitely something I care about with $200+ jeans. So does PBJ make jeans in sizes less than 28?

Also, how are the quality on Flat Heads? I was also considering the 3001.

Just curious, but is that similar to the ss Hare or the fw Hare?

PBJ XX-005 or FH 3001. I would stay away from skulls for now.

Any particular reason why?

edit: oh yeah, my waist is size 26, so availability could be a factor.

Thinking of selling off my APCs and getting a pair of skinny japanese denim. Should I get

Skull 5010XX or

PBJ XX-005?

Other suggestions welcomed.

Could we get pictures of it worn?

How much does a pair of Filippa K dress shoes (as seen here: http://www.superfuture.com/supertalk/showpost.php?p=365399&postcount=7) cost there?

Also curious about a pair of Acne Herri shoes.

edit: nevermind

edit: just got one

Just to check, there's not seperate line for women right? I'm thinking of ordering Joey Hi-standards, and I found it in the women's section. Also, I'm probably between a 26-27 waist size. Should I order the size 26?

April77 Joey Colordrive black or

Nudie Thin Finn Black coated or

Cheap Monday Tight black?

I'm basically looking for tight black pants. Price actually is sort of an issue, which is why I'm leaning towards the CMs right now. Also, I'm a size 25 APC NS, so what sizes should I get?

A little in terms of preference:

Hare black M65 fw size M

Some kind of good casual jacket/blazer for wearing with jeans.

DH 19 cm sz 26 (will settle for 27)

AA black/grey cardigan size S/M

Some kind of good semicasual black laceups for wearing with jeans.

Slim fitting black peacoat (not really necessary since I'm in SoCal)

I know there are a lot of DH for sale, but I have a budget and $300 for jeans just won't fly.

You have got to be kidding. If you're willing to wait while I get $60 into my paypal, I will totally buy the raw blacks.

edit: oh yeah, dependent on 19cm or not.

Damn, I'm really liking the narrow jacket. And the XS size is still available. But $600 is a little too much for me. I guess I'll wait until I get to NYC where I can shop around more.

Holy shit. I know what my next pair of jeans will be. I love how dark it still is.
