  2. has your SG indigo crew shrunk at all? i've not washed mine yet and don't want it to shrink a cm as it fits perfectly as is. when i was it i'll do a cold wash and let it hang dry.

     

    It'll shrink to how it fit when you first put it on, but it'll stretch back. 

  3. While we're casually mentioning Flat Head products we have for sale, I think I'm going to sell my slightly-worn 3009s. I bought and wore them mostly in the summer, but after wearing 47s for a few months (and doing several squats in the meantime) they no longer fit. They're absurdly tight. Size 34. PM me if you're interested--I don't want much for them. 

  4. resolute's seem to be one of the main jeans you see japanese instagrammers posting...naokichi5610 is one such poster

     

     

     

     

    With Resolute, it seems to be love hate. Hayashi san's intention was to create a pair of regular old jeans as you would've seen in the late 60's/70's department stores and I believe these jeans are just that. But because the fabric isn't as bold, it hasn't seemed to take off as much outside of Japan ("take off" in our niche denim world, that is). I for one would enjoy a pair...

     

     

    Fascinating stuff. I was very disappointed with Resolute when they first came out, but they've been growing on me. I think I expected Denime p. 2, which was my mistake.

  5. Those look good, but probably my favorite pair of flat heads are the 1005s (http://www.rawrdenim.com/2013/05/fade-friday-flat-head-1005-unknown-length-of-wear-and-washes/)

    on Fade Friday that the dude is wearing oversized (and they still look great!)  It seems like the exceed series is the least popular on forums like this.

     

    Jstavrin, that's an awesome fit.  Since you work at self edge it'd probably be easier for you to answer this question: for a fit like that on 3009s would you just size up one from say the 634s? Stories of the pioneer denim shrinking so much are the only thing that really puts me off from buying them; well, that and upcoming natural indigo iron hearts...

    Thanks! I'd size up one (maaaybe two) depending on how you wear your 634s. I'm wearing a 34, and I'm someone who would probably buy a size 33 in the 634s.
