Thanks Max. I find it ridiculously difficult to find jeans with a decent sized rise and thighs that doesn't have a massive leg opening!
I think I need a back rise of at least 15.5" and thighs around 12.75".
The 400T looks interesting but size 34 is currently out of stock at rivet and hide. I think the 33's would be a gamble as I like machine wash regularly.

How do you guys find the rise on the 400T?
I'm looking for some denim with a mid/high rise but with some taper. I wonder if these would fit the bill.
My warehouse 800 have a good rise for me but find the 8.5" leg opening a touch too big.

I bumped into Brian Cox today. I am wearing my Warehouse 800. Not sure what he is wearing!

Max,
The raw/pre-soak measurements (from BiG) of the Warehouse 800 (34) and my own post-soak measurements are shown below:
Pre Post
Waist 36.0" 35.0"
Front Rise 12.75" 12.0
Back Rise 16.75" 16.5
Upper Thigh 13.25" 12.75
Knee 9.5" 9.25
Leg Opening 8.75" 8.75
Inseam 35.5" 34.25
I warm soaked them for 70 minutes and measured them after about two hours of wear. Very happy with the fit -- relatively high rise with a linear (non-rounded) top block and tapered/trim look below. Not unlike some older Levi's or Roy Kinda Specials. I'm 6'0" and the inseam is about right (no need for cuff or hemming). If I were 6'3", the jeans would be short.

Here are my measurements for the 800 OW model (for anyone interested):
Waist 35
Front rise 11.75
Back rise 16
Upper thigh 12.75
Knee 9
Leg opening 8.5
Inseam 33
My pair has been worn for about 3 months part time and washed twice. Measurements above are after some wear.

Thanks for the updates guys, great stuff. The size 33's after 3 months look about perfect for me!
I'm quite surprised to see that the back rise stretches up to an inch. Good for me though as I can't stand low rises.
I will get some more wear out of my Warehouse 800's and then I think I will buy these.

Just wondering if anyone has post wash measurements of the 400T in a size 33 or 34?
I am tempted to get a pair but worried the rise might be too short after a wash. I wear Warehouse 800 in size 34.
Thanks

Nice fit! I love my pair too - the denim is unreal

Thanks for the feedback. Definitely plan to wash these fairly regularly. The thighs are probably the perfect size at the moment, it's just the seat which feels a bit saggy.
I might put them through a 30degree wash to see what happens.
They are ridiculously comfortable jeans. I love that my underwear/ass crack doesn't show when I sit down (unlike when I wear my nudies).

Hey all,
I purchased a pair of one wash Warehouse 800 from Blueingreen last week. The denim is unreal. I usually wear Nudie, so these are a big step up denim wise.
I've read through this thread with interest. I bought the jeans TTS but already have found them to be quite loose, particularly around the seat.
Would it be worth sticking the jeans in the washing machine to see if they'll shrink a bit?

Somar posted his size 33 measurements a while back. The rise is too small after the initial soak but might work once it has stretched. I've never known rises to stretch that much so I'm slightly cautious. The 3 month measurements look pretty much ideal for me.
Did the rise on your pair stretch out a fair bit?
