Biking.

Just wait till tomorrow...

That's what I did, works great.

But I didn't wear them wet, if that makes any difference to you.

I dunno...wearing them wet isn't really necessary, and for those who own the xx-011: Do you guys have massive leg twist? My left leg has crazy leg twist, it's kinda neat.

You do.

They shrink a lot.

It's not ending till April 1st, so we've got quite a bit of time before figuring all that out.

Haha, alrighty, just curious.

dktaz's jeans never fail to impress.

Yo where the rest of you at?

Also, out of curiosity how will we be posting pictures for judging later? We gonna do a giant thread with everyone's pics or a gallery online or wsup? Figured we should discuss it before the actual end-date or else it'll be a clusterfuck of confusion.

Isn't it a bit more than the initial "soak" ? I mean, they wash n dry them hardcore in industrial washers and whatnot. I don't think one can get as much shrinkage with just soaking. I bought the 31 in ow, but if I would've gotten raw, I'd probably go with 30. I might be wrong though.

nah - I think ur right..there's now way you get as much shrinkage as the factory one wash process will provide

I guess...if you think that minimal difference is unbearable..

Or you could just soak and tumble dry them yourself to produce "factory results"

I dunno, not a big deal in my book? :confused:

What's going on, its been hella weeks since I sent you my address yo.

this sucks, as normal..

by MLK day

i hope?

They are coming man just hold up.

...had some issues moving back to school...

You can take my tour time if you are really that upset.

I dunno...it's been the opposite for me. I wash my jeans every 2 months or so and they've been fading alright. They actually fade ALOT for the first two weeks to one month after the wash and slow down a bit.

Just me? :confused:

Those look bombbb.

Any news on where it is available?

Yes...

One wash just means they do the initial soak for you...

Contemplating washing mine for the first time...what's the best way to wash these anyway?

I've washed my pair with basically everything...detergent, shampoo, fancy female soap, etcetc. I don't think it really matters as long as you can get the dirt out of it...and as long as it doesn't have weird shit in it like moisturizer...

I used some olive oil shampoo to wash them while I was in Taipei...didn't mess them up as far as I can tell...did make them softer though, which was nice.

Hot water.

Soap/Detergent.

Scrub[Or machine].

Rinse.

Dry[hang or machine, whatever floats your boat].

^panda, a few pages back

^ Panda has the 011's not the 013's.

I like the xx-011s more than the xx-013s. Gordon had emailed me about them...but I think the leaf is too much...and it's a bit unnecessary to change the entire tag to say BiG...

...but I'm a OCD purist, I do hope some of you guys get the xx-013, we could compare evo of the lht grey weft versus the xx-005 fading in a slim cut, haha.

Happy New Years guys.

what's the shrinkage panda? did you just do a hot soak?

I did a hot soak, and it shrunk about an inch everywhere, I didn't actually measure it because as people have stated, PBJs stretch a lot. My first pair[xx-005s] stretched a lot so I didn't bother taking measurements...but after the first day of wear the waist stretched like an inch already.

The weft is awesome on the jeans, and the yellow stitching is awesome, a little bright, but awesome.

Too bad I won't be wearing them till April/May.

So here are my fit pics...in my opinion they are a bit tighter than I would have liked...next time I would size up...but yeah, post soak fit of the xx-011.

I am embarrassed of the fape I'm wearing, was lazing around the house. :/

Stiff as hell when they finished drying. Denim is really nice though, and fit is good.

Front.

Side.

Back.

Yup.

My jeans are enjoying a post rum and coke attack wash. They are drying outside now. Perfect Christmas present for them eh?

I have to wash my pants on christmas day...haha.

My friend spilled rum and coke on the DBs at a kick back last night.

...like an entire cup and it's sticky and nasty as fuck.

You motherfuckers are making me crave that shit. Yo so has anyone else heard about the Flora Expo? Anyone going? I think I might go to take pictures, club, and eat delicious food of course.

Anyone one else heading over then?

Same denim as the xx-005 and same cut as the xx-011s.

Yeah, he told me the same thing when I was there last week.

I like them, they look really purple, I've seen a couple faded pairs and they are cooooool, as long as you can pull off wearing that much purple.

I don't wear enough purple to justify purchasing them, xx-011s instead.

dkatz, most cameras, even dSLRs have a cord that allow you to transfer pictures straight from the camera to the computer. I end up forgetting my card reader sometimes too but I always leave that shit behind because well, it sucks. But if you leave it behind, like me, you can save a few bucks and use it now.

Yup, saving money is an asian's top priority.

Or buy it, use it, say it was faulty and return it.

At first I thought you meant a single walk in the dog park did that to you.

And I was thinking, "That's fucked up."

Yup, brainfart of the day.

Haha, I'm 150% down for this aho.

Saving money for it now.
