I think they may be big on you. 

 

you might end up getting a little more shrinkage out of the TCBs than samurai, but at the waist its of no consequence. Mine stretched back to raw size in probably an hour. 

 

what does your waist measure? 

My wiaist measures between 35-36". Some of the size charts for the 50's cut have shown the waist as being 86cm raw, and Tuckshop's size chart showed a 34 waist for the raw size 36. It's all very confusing! 

they shrink from tag size.  My tagged 35 usually measure at about 32 right out of a hot wash in the machine.  They stretch out pretty easily.  Expect roughly 3" of inseam shrink as well.  They are the polar opposite of fit when compared to Samurai 710's.  (I have a pair of 710's that I sized up one)

Thanks for the feedback. So I should be ok w/ the 36 it sounds like? I've never tried Samurai 710's, only the 510's. My waist measures somewhere between 35-36". Most of my best-fitting jeans measure at about 17.5" across when laid flat. Does anyone have a 50's cut in size 36 that they could possibly measure for me?

So I rolled the dice and picked up the last 50's cut in size 36 from Tuckshop. Even after reading this thread, I'm still pretty confused about sizing. My best fitting current pair are 19oz Samurai S510's in size 34. Do you think the 36's will be massively huge on me? Already planning on a good hot soak (possibly even a machine wash), and tumble dry to get all of the shrink out. They were sold out of 34, so it was 36 or something else. 

Any input is appreciated, and thanks guys!

Crap. Was worried that may be the case. I'll post in the contest thread. Thanks Maynard!

I'm definitely in for a pair of 0105's.

The 1101 is slightly tapered from the knee down and has a slightly slimmer top block. The 0105 is more of a traditional straight cut and might even be considered a "full" cut although I believe it has some very slight tapering to it as well. Less than the 1101 though. I have the 1101's and while they do fit me well, I would appreciate a tiny bit more room in the thigh. 

Went with 0105 as well. Already have a pair of 1101, and really like them.
