  1. thanks, just did

    jeans went to 28.5", its perfect though. everything else shrunk as it should cept for hem which is still 7.5, but i like the looks of it now. took me 20 minutes to get the buttons done cause it was so stiff.

    pics along the way...!

  2. hey guys, i just got my pair of PBJs xx-005 raws in size 28. friend went to new york and he grabbed me a pair while he was there. this is my very first pair of jap raws, i've only owned a pair of APC new standards, so excuse the noobiness. btw, the jeans are flawless in quality, the denim is wonderful and so is the craftsmanship put into it, although you all would probably know that. im super excited on how these will turn out...

    anyways, i put the jeans in the tub for a soak to shrink it down. i took it out after an hour in warm/hot water (hot, but warm enough to leave your hand in the water). after trying them on, there was still some space in the waist and I measured the waist BiG style and they were 29" (waist was 30.5" unsoaked). Im true to size 28 and i was just wondering if another soak with hot water (hottest the tap will go) would shrink the jeans down to 28.

    thanks

  3. after 131 days of wear, i decided to give my APC new standards a soak and now they're in the tub at this moment.

    this is the second soak, i did the first soak 41 days in (too early, but they were dirty :().

    hopefully they'll turn out right

  4. im a 28" true waist and i got a pair of NS in sz 27

    i shouldve sized down to 26 as now they measure 29" and ive got too much room left in the waist.

    EDIT.

    since youre a 29, go for the 27.

    but you could always make sure and try on a pair from a store

  5. you sure it was $230? if you did get it for $230 you got jewed.

    check your price again, i got my pair of new standards from the mercer store at $155

  6. im a 28 waist, and i have a pair of size 27 APC's (bit too loose for my liking) and i was wondering what size should i get for a pair of imperial dukes. i saw that the sizing was one inch bigger than tagged size on self edge and there were no 27's.
