They look nice! Finally, after more than a week without update my pair arrived in Germany. Now just waiting for DHL to deliver them.

I think we already mentioned LEEarth here? If not, have a look: https://www.instagram.com/leearth76?igsh=MWRyYW96NXkzZ3RmbA== These small brands are popping up more and more

With BEARS you now they measured the jeans themselves (accoridng to their guide). With Celluloid I believe they just copied the numbers provided by Warehouse

Denime - Freewheelers - Veja

Already done

My size 34 shrank from 35" to 33" after two washes (and stretched back). 2.5" is probably possible if you wash hotter and/or use a dryer. Also shrinkage is a percentual thing. A 40" waist is more likely to shrink 2.5" than a 28" waist.

Max is back being a pure metal head and into 80s style. High top sneakers, slim tapered jeans (Nudies are his choice here...*gasp*) and going to metal shows.

That's an XX model. If the inseam works for you, it's a great price.

Aren't your FW not perfectly sewn and also a repro pair?! Anyway: some people want authenticity (whatever this could mean, @Duke Mantee loves this topic ) and see the charm in imperfections. Some people want perfectly sewn jeans but still want jeans from yesteryear. So I see both things to be valid/desired.

Once an hour? Amateur.... Doesn't seem to really want it

Anybody fancys a blanket lined Type2 in a Western friendly size? https://www.fromjapan.co.jp/japan/en/auction/yahoo/input/b1121190881/

Back to raw measurements

Directly from seller. The lower numbers from BEARS, the higher from Pants Shop Avenue. I guess the truth is in the middle

Direct contact beats waiting for items to go live on the homepage

I bought through BEARS

W34 as I was quoted a one-wash size of 84-86 cm (depending on source). W36 around 88 and 91. Also one-wash

And ordered

Teflon as well

Yep, I got the same problem. LVC thread usually takes me to the previous page and the "Blunders" thread will always take me to the last post and ignoring all other new post before that. And it is marked as "read" immediately if I dare to open another thread first.

Stretched back out to 35.5"

Thanks! I can measure them later after this one day of wear. I expect some good stretching.

Thanks. They are L30

Yeah I would expect mine to not shrink much more. They are quite tight in the crotch area which is not reflected in the measurements (and what I didn't expect as well).

I was honestly more surprised about the waist and inseam to shrink that much in a first, delicate wash 😅 Anyway, here are the fit pics. Still on the fence if I should use these for the IIY4. They seem to fade quick as well, based on the indigo hues (fades) I got after the initial wash.
