Hey, this still around?

this still available?

your toj ma-1 still up for grabs?

this still around by chance?

Either still available?

 

Anyone know what causes that flaring at the bottom of the pockets? I'm thinking maybe it's because the back rise is too long? I've hot soaked my pair of 710's twice, and tried doing another partial soak of the top block and still get that. I'm contemplating doing another hot soak and giving them a tumble dry. Any tips?

 

Jeans pictured aren't mine, but same issue.

So I did a partial soak of the top block of my Samurai's and they came back with a weird line across the leg. I'm sure that part of the leg wasn't in the water, but it looks like it might be a water stain. Am I totally boned here? Any idea what could have caused it / how to fix it?

 

 

 

I'm getting some serious hipflare from my S710XX's. Any idea if this settles down over time, or should I look at alterations?

Does anyone have any experience with ONI 517XX? How does the denim compare to the Samurai 710XX? Is it slubbier / harrier? 

Thanks for the feedback guys, I really appreciate it.

 

I'm looking for something that'll fit like Airfred's Samurai 710XX:

Yeah, unfortunately I'm a pretty short dude at 5'6". How the hell do shorter guys get raws to work? I feel like it's really working against me with tapered/skinny fits. Gotta get them hemmed and you end up losing the taper/slimness. I'm not looking for something that'll fit like APC petit standards, but I do like stuff on the slimmer side. 

 

I guess I'd say that right now they feel wrong in the top block and seat. Too long in the front, and too saggy in the back. Would soaking fix that though? How much do they usually shrink?

 

I would also consider sizing down, but I'm worried they'll be too tight in the waist / top block and thighs. I've got about an inch of space where they're sitting now, maybe a little more. I can fit two fingers in before the waist is tight. I like my thighs to be at 11.5", and could probably only go for 11.25" at most. My best fitting pants measure 14.5" waist, 10" rise, 13.5" back rise, 11.5" thigh, 8" knee, 6.875" leg opening, 28" inseam and look like this:

 

 

I'd be OK with less of a taper (it doesn't look like I'd be able to get something with that much of a taper with my inseam anyway), and wouldn't mind if my Samurai's fit looser below the knee if they fit well everywhere else.

I'm not looking for something super slim like APC petit standards, or PBJ xx-012. Both of those fit me tighter than I'd like, but I do want something on the slimmer side. I think the S610 and S5000 would be looser than I'd like though unfortunately. I like a lot of the fits I've seen with the 710XX, and would be happy with any of the "slim" looking fits like Airfred's. I really love the denim and weight on the 710XX too.

 

I have about an inch of space in the waist where they're sitting now, maybe more. The thighs look like they'd shrink to a comfortable size where they are now. If I size down, would the thighs be a problem? I like my thighs at 11.5", and 11.25" would probably be pushing it. Any less as it gets in the skin tight territory. The pants I'm wearing above have a 11.5" thigh are just how I'd like them.

Thanks for the feedback, man. It definitely helps my decision in one way or another. I think I'd like to try something slimmer like Artisandenim suggested though, but do you think I'd be able to achieve something like Airfred's 710XX with the size I've got now? I don't want something crazy slim -- just something like Airfred's.

 

@Artisandenim

 

Yeah, it's kinda tough to say how I'll like them because of how unbroken in / unsoaked they are. As they are now though, I feel like they fit me crazy huge. Too high in the top block, too big below the knee. Do you think sizing down one would be a good idea? You're right -- I do like my stuff on the slimmer side.

 

Just got a pair of 710XX from BiG. I went TTS with size 29. I haven't soaked them yet because I'm worried they're too big / not the cut for me. I have about an inch of space in the waist where I am wearing them now, and the thighs are comfortable. Seat looks pretty baggy though.

 

What do you guys think of the fit? Should / Could I size down 1 if I wanted a slimmer cut? These are lot 15.

Just got my PBJ xx-012's. I'm a pretty disappointed that I may have to pass them up. I was told that they were way too loose in the top block, but too tight in the thighs for a hot soak. They are size 30 raw. Could you guys tell me what you think?

 

 

Close up of top block

 

 

 

Tons of space in the waist..

 

 

Not a whole lot of space in the thighs..

 

 

 

Can this pair work for me? I can accept it my legs just wont work for these jeans, but I feel like there's no alternative to PBJ. I want them to work so badly.
