my butt hole is small but i think i can fit my pinky finger in it.

just take it slow, that's the key. maybe you could practice on your girlfriend's first?

me? (10 char)

I think Cepz is confused since you hadn't asked a question.

thanks! (10char)

Does anyone know what these sneakers are?

my s5000cx aka my answer to not being able to find slim fitting chinos came in today

If you got these only as a slim substitute for chinos doesn't it kind of miss the point if you have to taper them. Anyway, as Casper said they look good right now.

Oh yeah, and that is an iphone in my pocket, but I am happy to see you.

lol, I would certainly hope that's all it is, seeing as it's in your back pocket!

GREAT fit btw.

What are tram-lines? I was looking at Ironhearts' page and in their FAQs is a reference to these, and they recommend washing jeans inside out to avoid them. Just curious what they are. Are they discolorations/creases of some sort?

i doubt anyone actually sandpapers their whiskers.

If that's you say so... then there are a lot of wrongfully accused people out there, all of whom happen to be blessed with jeans that naturally look more like a cat's face than jeans.

I believe whiskers are faded mostly by rubbing against their neighboring whiskers, which is where hije comes in to the equation, making the denim under/above the whisker darker. This is one of the reasons, I believe, why "sandpapering" whiskers is so obvious.

it might not ruin the creases if you wear them in the tub... although i guess they would shrink out of proportion once you eventually wash them. opie's probably right that they're doomed. sorry, man. that's rough.

There are a lot of options. My suggestion is Nom de Guerre... although I'm sure there are way better, just that my only experience lies with these.

They are raw (non-selvedge), 14.5oz (my estimate), and very slim without being skinny. They're not really meant to fade well, but I wore mine for 5 months and they showed a lot of promise (past-tense "showed" because I had to prematurely retire them due to a devastatingly severe dog attack, as well as spilling an entire can of blue paint on to them). They were absolutely perfect in my opinion (EXCEPT) they have a prettty steep back rise. Anyway, good luck with your search. And props to your choice of color. Gray is a very underrated one in my opinion.

billy - amazing details. you make me really want a pair of my own.

sam - really great looking! they looked awesome before the wash, but we all have to let go of our childhood at some point (and that goes for jeans as well). but i do agree, i like a bit of grime! haha

right... which is called a smile. or at least that's what i've heard it referred to as.

These are chuck taylors...

They look more like Jack Purcells, except without the smile. Where can you get monochrome white Chucks?

what are your shoes? nice job btw really great overall color!

wanting to see your hidden rivets ends up getting you some head.

true story?

+rep!

yeah, that's the site. meant to give a link.

Just wanted to give a shout out about this website I came across. Guy's name is Brit Eaton, and he's been called the Indiana Jones of denim, although he also searches for military and work wear. His site shows a video of his excavations as well as sells much of the clothing.

I figured this would be missed by a lot of people here if I were to put it in small questions, and it seems right up your guys' alley, so I risk being neg-repped. Bring it!

they shrunk up more in the thighs/legs

the inseam and waist didnt shrink up too much more but like kenthenoob said, they stretched out with wear.

thanks, ken and kenny. i was concerned just because mine were tight-to-the-max from the get-go, thus their initial soak consisted of me wearing them into the tub so as not to shrink them to the point of not even getting them on. i guess i'm just hoping that doesn't happen if i put them in the washer/dryer since i'm a bit too big to fit in my washer or dryer ( 6'1" ).

almost 5 months (of wear), 1 initial soak / hang dry, 1 wash/machine dry around 3 months

kenny, how much did the wash/machine dry shrink them compared to the first soak? i'm curious because i think i might have gotten a size smaller than i should've.

apc ns

ndg gray non-selvedge

Those NS are the old version. The updated version has different tags and top button. Kinda sketch...

Idk if i'd buy them

well, there's a shop in my city that sells apc, and it has the updated version as well as some leftovers.

if you didn't notice, charles posted that at 10:20pm and the post containing the thinn finns were edited 10:28pm

my apologies to curiouscharles. looks like i was the one who jumped the gun.

you are either a liar, or a cheat.

what the hell's wrong with you? he said straight up that they were bought used and had been washed before.
