  1. There's a guy in my town who wears Flat Head 2011s, and they're fading in very nicely. They fade like the other types of FH denim, so you're practically guaranteed good results with those. If I were into heavyweight denim, I'd totally enter with that pair.

    I'd love to, I'm just trying to make sure I'd get the sizing right. I'm not sure if I'd fit into the 29s, and I'm willing to bet 31 is too big. Tough one.

  2. what are your options for HWDC?

    Pretty much anything IH, 3sixteen+, one of the heavier pairs of Samurai or those Flat Head 15ths. I own a pair of IH and 3sixteens already, so I was hoping to try something different. Even considering a pair of the 20oz Kamikaze Attacks on Tate and Yoko.

  3. Those cuts are very very very different. My usual size is a 28. I took a 31 when trying on the IH-666OD and the thighs barely fit, practically painted on. In the 3005 (same cut as 2015) I take a 28 and the thighs are baggy. Unless you're looking to change up your style, I wouldn't blindly buy that jean. If you're near a Self Edge store, try on the 3005 model for comparison.

    A 30 in the F310 gives me a similar look to the IH-666, but with the thigh room I need. Might be worth looking into the 3001/F310 unless you're really set on the 15th Anniversary denim.

    Really wish some measurements for the 3002s would pop up...

    Based on DC4's measurements, I think the top thigh on the 2015 is actually a bit slimmer than the 3005 (although it's possible that's just because the 20 oz. denim shrinks a lot differently.)

    I'm not totally certain but I think the 3002 is like the 3001, but with a smaller hem. Wish I'd thought to ask them about that yesterday.

    Thanks for your responses, I really appreciate it. I think I'll spend some more time looking around at some other options, though I'd love to wear some Flat Heads for the HWDC contest.
