Hey guys, figured I'd get more response if I posted here but if it's inappropriate, do let me know. I've got a pair of Ande Whall and Wakefield Hotel collaboration to let go.
It's the one with the vintage cast and in the Mustang fit.
Size is 31.
I've measured according to BiG:
waist: 44
Thigh: 28.5
Leg opening: 17
Length: 74
Do PM me if you're keen I'm located in Singapore.

Hey tion4->, there isn't any chainstitching in Brisbane. You've gotta send your jeans down to Mikhail Zenon in Sydney. You can google his name. Something should appear.

Just picked up the M65 from Bronson. Won't be needing it in Singapore that's for sure. But it's really nice and well constructed!

It seems to have reached its usage limit

Most PBJ fits are low rise so you might be barking up the wrong tree. The tapered cut is the xx-011/013 cut which is their slim tapered. The others are all straight cut. But then again, it's got the lowest rise and the slimmest thigh measurement.

I've got the 005 and the 012 (blue on blue version of the 011). thighs are tighter in the 011. Rise is also lower. i've got the same size for both.

Yeah this is just a fun experiment. So many people have asked me if i left paper in my pockets while washing!
It'll be in my rotation with a pair of Redcloud and PBJ. can't wait to see what it becomes after a couple of months!

So these are the measurements immediately after the wash:Post-wash:waist: 33.85 inThigh: 12.6 inKnee: 8.86 inLO: 7.68 ininseam: 31.89 inFront rise: 10.63 inBack rise: 14.96 in
after about a day's wear,
here are the measurements:
Post-wear:
Waist: 35.82Thigh: 12.59Knee: 8.86LO: 7.87I put it through a 1 hour hot soak, then felt it wasn't enough so i threw it into a normal wash cycle. It is a lot softer now but just a scratchy.And now for some pictures!you'd notice the selvedge line isn't stitched very well...Same for the chainstitched hemAnd the hairinessOverall, definitely no where near Japanese made denim but much higher quality than one would expect from a $100 pair of jeans. I'm satisfied since this is just an experiment into hemp denim We shall see how this thing fade with time.7 -
I will once it dries up!
Anyways here's the link if any one is keen. http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.5-c.w4002-4093707404.43.RTtIwR&id=35110075919
The fit is apparently modelled after the Iron Heart 555-01. Supposedly low rise with a tapered leg opening.
It's ridiculously hairy. I imagined its due to the Flax material. Interestingly, the word flax in mandarin translates to Hemp. So perhaps it is hemp afterall.
They're 15oz, RHT, with 50% cotton (Warp), 50% Flax/Hemp (Weft). No word as to where the fabric is from.

Hello everyone!
Greetings from Singapore!
This is a pair of Bob Dong Lot: N039F, 50% cotton and 50% flax. They're size 34.
Measurements (Pre-soak):
Waist - 37 in
Thigh - 12.79 in
Knee - 9.25 in
Leg Opening - 8.26 in
Inseam - 34.25 in
Front Rise - 11.41 in
Back Rise - 16.14 in
Pre-soak pics (with Bob Dong Selvedge workshirt):
These were real cheap at SG$102.94 which is about US$76 excl. shipping. Took about 4 days to get from China to Singapore. Went with a good proxy.
They are currently hot soaking. Will post post-soak fits later.

Cross post from PBJ thread
Progress shots on my XX-005s. Had worn them for about a month then stopped because the contest jeans came in. I've sized them both in the same size (Size 33) but evidently, the contest pair is much slimmer.
Progress shots on the contest jeans. about 2 weeks of wear. (First pic is more true to actual colour)
They're sized pretty tight hence the crotch fading more than everywhere else. Crotch rip is imminent.

The 007 cut is slim straight while the 011 cut is slim tapered. The 011 cut is suppose to be tighter than the 007 cut.

I think they will stretch out where necessary to a comfortable fit though. That being said, i think they're suppose to be on the tighter side?

@jpark, do check out BiG's description of both the xx-012 and xx-007. They have the same description. They're done the same way, just different fit. xx-012 is the slim tapered fit while xx-007 is the slim straight fit.

XX-012

I think the grey weft only peeks through more after you wear them for a bit. Having said that, the faded pics of both the xx-011, and the xx-013 (same fit, different denim) seem to have almost the same faded colours. Although, i think it's really how you wear and wash them that really affects how they fade and the colour as well.

Hi Lukenstein,
your best bet is definitely to check with Denimio. its a competition run by them. It'll be in the xx-012 cut. and it should be starting sometime in october. a separate page is being created by Denimio for this.

Oops! double post. nope i didn't hem mine. So i should be alright for a switch. however, their policy is a little weird. You order a refund package, and not an exchange package. In other words, you pay for the exchange before they refund you back.
