  1. ok..thanks B_F and flash

    If it helps at all I'm a true 29 inch waist and down sized one in the vx to a tagged 28. They fit perfect, after a warm wash cycle and I am expecting a bit more of shrinkage in the thigh and hem.

    Measurements are.

    Waist: 29

    Thigh: 11

    knee: 8

    Leg: 7.85

    Rise:10

    Cheers, and as always big thanks to b_f for the sizing advice!

  2. Anyone have a size chart for the NF Skinny tried Tate and Yoko but no cigar. Looking to get my girlfriend a pair of Dark indigos or even a pair of the Viper X003.

    She is tiny at 5.2" maybe 107lbs, slender.

    Measurements of best fitting jeans are as follows:

    Waist: 25.75 at hips

    Front Rise: 6.5

    Thigh: 8.7

    Knee: 5

    Opening: 4.5

  3. Just ordered a M63866 and a chambray work shirt from Jenna at HPA. Let me just say that it was an absolute joy dealing with HPA. Jenna and Bob (I think was his name correct me if I'm wrong) were just amazing people. Love the fact that it was an actual person on the phone with me having a human conversation. They were both just fucking wonderful. Got a small in the grey and a 36 in the shirt, can't wait!

  4. Does the SC11962A Sugar cane jacket, also have mixed in sugar cane fibers like some of their other offerings? Also is the patch on it cow-hide, deer skin, or paper? And finally, does it run pretty small, pretty accurate repo?

    TIA

    Debating between the following.

    IH-526BJ in a s

    IH-526J in an xs

    SC11962A in a 36

    If anyone owns the SC11962A Sugar cane jacket, mind commenting on the hand(feel) of the denim. Does the jacket also have mixed in sugar cane fiber like some of their other offerings? Also is the patch on it cow-hide, deer skin, or paper? Which runs slimmer the IH of the SC? Anything else in the price range of the SC that anyone can recommend. I'm leaning more towards the 526J because the 21oz. looks beautiful, but I am not stoked on the $450 price tag.

    any other suggestions are welcome!

    cheers.

  6. Thanks guys!I'm thinking of soaking them to make it a little tighter though.Will it lose a lot of indigo if i soak it?And any tips of how i should go about doing it?(i dont have access to a bathtub btw)Sorry for the questions guys this is my first pair of raw denim!

    Indigo lost should be minimal if any, since these are unsaf. they are shrink to fit. Bath tub isn't necessary, just stick them in a bucket with hot or warm water (depending on how much you would like them to shrink). If you really want to get most of the shrinkage out of the way give them a wash with a few table spoons of salt to preserve the indigo, light cycle on hot or warm then hang dry. Obviously soaking them will provide the least indigo lost but then again this have a black weft and are dyed "the darkest shade of indigo" for the warp so I wouldn't worry to much. I guess the pros of the latter method is that you do not have to worry about creases shifting etc. if you're into that kind of stuff.

    Cheers, hope that helped

  7. Fucking ace man!

    I am on the verge of some 003's. What do you usually wear in momo? Like in terms of cut, size etc. Debating between the 29-30, but may end up with the latter of the two since the rise looks a little low. Can you comment on this? Is the leg opening pretty small?

    TIA
