  1. Whaddup SuFu,

    Just selling a bunch of stuff I don't wear anymore. Prices aren't firm, make offers. If you wanna do a meetup in NYC, I'll be there for the summer starting next monday. Prices do not include shipping, I'll figure out the exact price once I have your address. If you need measurements, ask me. I will accept trades in APC stuff, pending I like it and it fits me. Also, looking for basic striped tees.

  2. I am pretty sure BiG would work something out with you if you haven't worn them besides the trying on even though you got them hemmed. I have seen hemmed jeans listed on their site before. Also Gordon is a great guy.

    I emailed Gordon and he was really helpful. I decided to keep them as is. I am gonna wear them raw for a while until they stretch a bit then cold soak them. I think that should be perfect.

  3. ^i bought one today and you tweeted at me haha

    anyways, I have been looking at all this hand crafted leather good stuff. can anyone point in the right direction to get started doing this on my own. i am extremely intrigued and fascinated by this and want to try my hand at it.

  4. Hey SuFu,

    I bought a pair of sz. 29 PBJ XX-005 yesterday from BiG and they just don't fit me right. They were hemmed yesterday and about an inch was taken off. You can look at the BiG site for measurements and if you are interested I can send pictures. I'm asking for $270. This will save you $30 if you were to buy them in-store and a little more if you were to buy them online.

    LET ME KNOW!

  5. They will shrink, if you soak or wash, even beyond being wearable. You have two options:

    - sell and take your loss

    - sit in a warm bath with the jeans on and let dry on you, chances are they will settle at a 'wearable' shrinkage, but don't take my word for it, I'm no expert in Japanese jeans. Anyway, it's what I would do with a pair of LVC's...

    I like this second option. Can anyone comment on the plausibility of this?

  6. Hey Sufu,

    I'm a bit of a denim newbie and I think I really fucked up here, so I need some help. Yesterday I went to BiG to get a new pair of jeans. When one of the employees asked me what size, I stupidly said 29, as that is the size I have gotten for all my APCs in the past, it is sized down two from my real waist size. I tried a bunch of pairs on and ended up settling with size 29 PBJ XX-005. They fit perfectly, like i had previously experienced with my other APCs, they were a little tight in the waist, but I figured they would stretch to become comfortable after about a week or so. When the employee saw how they fit, he said it looked good. I asked him if it was too tight in the waist and he said it was perfect. When I got home, I looked a few things up about PBJ and I found out that you need to pre-soak them. I figure, if I were to do this, they would shrink to a point where they would be unwearable, and would not ever stretch to a point where they would become wearable. Is this true? I got them hemmed a little bit, so I guess I wont be able to exchange them. So I guess what I'm asking is do I need to pre-soak them and did I get the completely wrong size?

    Thanks
