You do realize the 555-02 is unsanforized right? After you get the shrink out the 555-01 and 02 are nearly identical. With the 02 actually being slightly slimmer from the knee down. Especially in the larger sizes.

That's what they were going for with the patch, just slight changes to the logo. They wanted to keep the same one but still make it a bit different.

Hi all, i initial hot soaked my 710's in the bathtub for two hours and they now fit perfectly. Will these shrink further and if so, do you guys recommend that i soak them again for further shrinkage before hemming? I'm really excited to start working on this pair.
Soak them again, give them some agitation too. Samurais tend to take a couple soaks/washes to get all the shrinkage out.

Does anyone have any experience with the Pike Brothers 1944 N1-Deck Jacket? Looking for some sizing help. Or maybe some exact measurements on a size L or XL. Measurements I've found seem to clash with the ones provided on their site.

I haven't experienced much stretch there, but thats because it didn't need to.

Those look great, B-Sandy! Would you mind measuring the rear rise, if you have a moment? Thanks.
Back rise is 14.5 inches.

Oh ok, now I get what you're saying. I was a bit confused.

These are left hand twill and can stretch a lot. Post soak mine were a 36, now they're upwards to 38 inches after a couple days. He should be fine. It'll be uncomfortable for a couple days but it should end up being fine.

I think they shrunk up a bit more with the second wash, but not that much. Maybe 1/5 of an inch from the thigh down at most. Probably a bit less. Most of the shrink came with the first wash.

Those are more of a skinny straight kind of fit with a slight taper. The tapered version is actually a bit slimmer in the lower leg. Only skinnier part about them are the thighs. And when he mentioned skinny I was thinking more along the lines of some naked and famous super skinny guys or anything slimmer than a grim tim from nudie. For fits like those you'd have a hard time finding some heavy weight options.

Ordered a pair of SEXIH22-301s last week and finally got around to taking some pictures. Gave them 2 machine washes on warm with low spin to get rid of as much shrink as possible because they were a little larger than what I'm used to.
Presoak:
Waist: 37,5
Thigh: 13.5
Knee: 9
Leg Opening: 8.3
Rise: 10.7
Inseam: 36.5

Fit pics after a few days wear. I think they shrunk up nicely.

IH 555-01 or Rogue Territory SK?
I really want something heavier weight, which is where the IH's would be better, but the RT's have an overall slimmer fit, and I'm super skinny. Any other heavyweight skinny denim recommendations would be great
I've heard RTs are solid but I'd have to go with the Iron Hearts. That being said, I'd go with the 555-02s instead of the 555-01s. Nicer denim IMO. Take a look in the Iron Heart Thread for Nizzel55s pair. Same denim, different fit. But as a side note, you're not gonna get many true skinny fits in heavy weight denim. They're already tough to break in and the skinnier fit could make it a nightmare. The only real option is sizing down on one of the slimmer fits but that can be risky. And painful.

I haven't had any of the experience with the 19 oz denim but I'm sure they stretch at least as much as the 19 oz does and probably more. The OGs also measure an inch larger in the waist than the 19 oz does in the same size. If you're worried once you soak the 34s, just wear them while slightly damp or stretch the waistband before you put them on. Should have no problem if all the other measurements will work.

They can stretch a lot further than that. My size 34s measure around 38 inches after a couple weeks. And that's after 2 warm machine washes. The OG denim can be really stretchy if you need it to be. Also, last time I checked a couple days ago, Denimio had stock in every size.

Did you happen to give them any other measurments than just the waist? Because if I remember correctly, the things on the 711 are pretty tight. So that recommendation by pritates might be due to that and not the waist measurement. Since the larger waist can be solved by a belt but if they have too small of a thigh, you won't be able to wear them.

They look tight but you're skinny so you can probably pull them off. And based off what the people in the reddit thread have been saying the last couple days, you won't be alone in having a pretty tight fit.
