Looks like "Front Bowl" translates to Front Rise and "Watari" is the thigh measurement.

Awesome, thanks man.

I think I am going to pick up a pair. I can't find any details on the length of the rise, or other size dimensions though.

Good to know. I won't be supporting RRL in the future with skepticism towards their ethics. I'm still wondering if there is documentation of their clothing production, especially the stuff that boasts American heritage. Perhaps it's a purposeful lack of transparency.

Just a question about RRL and their business practices, quality, etc. I read a scuffle recently between an online retailer (snake oil provisions) and an instagram follower - the user claiming that RRL engaged in poor business practices and opaque transparency on where they source labor. fabrics, etc.

Does anyone know more about this? Google and searching this thread hasn't offered very much evidence of this. I just want to know if RRL is a brand I should be supporting and purchasing from.

x-post from WAYWT: lot 401's at three or four months' wear (had them for ~a year). Love these pants!

Sorry for the low-quality photos

@julian-wolf Those look awesome on you!

I just ordered a pair of 1947 standards from Hinoya. I'm already anxious for them to arrive. I'll post fit pics for anyone else who is slim and tall. My waist and hip measurements are within an inch of each other. High rise jeans tend to slip down, so we will see how these fit.

I do have a pair of TCB 50s that fit nicely and the measurements are similar.
