Mr HaGa

i just soaked/dried my pair today. i went true to waist and got a 35 in the 1108 and i dont like how they fit. if someone has a size 33 they wanna trade for my 35 let me know otherwise im just gonna put these on the marketplace.

What's the problem with how they fit? Any fit pics?

They look good. Please resize your pics though.

Edit: Thanks for resizing

^Man, those are going to fit fucking beautifully!

So a machine wash and tumble dry should get all the shrink out?

^ Belgian customs can be tough once they're holding something...

That's an 0105 size 36? Did they shrink the predicted 3" in the waist?

Anyone got pre- and post-soak/wash measurements to share already?

Look harder at the patch...he got the 1108

I can see tvshooter got the 1108. I was asking Bijan.

Bijan did you get a 0105 or 1108? And what's you true measured waist size?

And looking at that patch, I doubt that tvshooter's are o/w...

I would not mind if people start on their jeans as soon as they receive them, as long as they post a newspaper picture.

Not that I have any authority in this matter, of course.

^That's not really that exceptional for a slim jim. I've heard of them ripping in 2 weeks.

Big jealousy fire to all who are getting their jeans this week!

^If this is true, I'm very glad I got mine when I got them. Great pair of jeans.

Does anyone know if BIG is restocking the raw 811's or is it just the one wash.

They're waiting for them to be reproduced, but yes, they will eventually get a restock of them, in a month or 2 or 3...

dark brown suede clarks desert boots...?

I hope this thread gets flooded with pics as soon as people start receiving their jeans.

I think they'll look fine after a soak.

I think so too. Doesn't really look too tight.

Denim-junkie does something similar, a couple of styles in limited lots, fine denim, amazing details, only available through his website, takes pre-orders. In fact, that's pretty much exactly what you're suggesting.

So it's not necessarily a bad concept, but I doubt you'll get a lot of positive feedback here and now. Either do it or don't, and if you do, come back when you have some samples or specs or something, not just an idea that's not very original.

i just wanna remind everyone as their jeans come in, if your pair doesn't fit right then hold off wearing them and maybe we can get a trade thread going

Yes! That's kind of an answer to my question (a few pages back) about exchanges if they don't fit. Also, measure them well before and after you soak/wash so those who get them later know what to expect...

Gordon told me that the re-order long inseam jeans would be finished by the 20th of February and would arrive in New York around the 23rd.

This kind of fucking blows. So I'll have them early March.

Ah well...

I was just wondering, will there be any pairs available for exchange? Doesn't look like it, right? I'm looking forward to soaking/shrinking results and fit pics of the ones that got sent out early!

The people, or maybe all of Japan, were on holiday last week so no jeans were sent.

Japanese going on holiday? This shit does not compute...

"You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to iGIT again."

But looking great!

how long are the jeans going to be?

Probably 36, maybe 38?

Makes sense...

Don't know the answer to your actual question though...

Thanks for all the positive feedback. I took some post wash fit pics.

(x-posted)

All right, I realize that my last s710bk update wasn't very long ago, and I wasn't able to wear them for a week or so due to them being repaired, but I'm giving these a gentle handwash today, and took some pre-wash pics. So here goes.

(Sunny but strangely misty day, snow all over the place, so weird light bouncing all around prevented me from taking outdoors pics. Did my best indoors but wasn't able to get a satisfying full front shot.)

Eh?

Like I said, they're getting washed today. I will share post-wash pics if there's some noticeable change and/or when I get around to it.
