Sorry, forgot to answer you on this one! 

The first sample jeans stretched about 4 cm in the waist. Though I did take one size too small on that pair, haha.

Thanks a lot! Sounds perfectly reasonble! 

The fit would be quite comparable to indigofera buck, right?

good point! scroll down this page and you'll get an idea http://denimbridge.jp/overseas

If this is how they are measured, both front and back rise seem really good to me 

+1 on hairy patches 

Great numbers!

How much can we expect the waist to stretch from post wash?

That would be great! Thank you

I measured last night after one day of wear, with belt. The waist had stretched to 42 cm.

What's the general consensus on the 1978 501 and the 1962 551z? Anybody got experience with them and/or would  like to share measurements?

Hi! 

Never owned the 1962 551z, but had a pair of 1978 501 a while back. Sold them since I never got used to the fit, don't know what it was. Probably a short back rise combined with small back pockets.

Sadly I couldn't find all measurements, but still have these. These measurements are from the pair when it had been worn for maybe a week after a wash. I remember the waist stretching out easily. 

Waist 42 cm

Hips measured straight across from the bottom of the arcs 55 cm

Thigh 30,5 cm

Hem 19 cm

Sorry for low quality pics.

What did it stretch back to?

At least 42 cm I would guess, BiG style. 

They are newly washed right now, but I can measure after a couple of days of work for real numbers..  

800s used a couple of days a week since late december. Love them. 

Very comfy fit even though the waist shrink to ~39 cm post wash for a size 33.. 

Ordered a pair of 76s, while the 20% sale was still going strong. Will be fun to experience what the praise is all about! 

A great reason for a trip to the west coast!

Love them pockets! 

The first rule of thigh club is:  you do not talk about thigh club.

Jokes aside, my two year old makes me squat more than anything else before in my life. 

I like some backpocket stitching. Plain pockets can be a bit boring. And as said, it's easy to remove if you don't like it! 

I'm interested. Never joined any contests before, so this could be fin.

And seeing the instagram post from Göteborg Manufaktur earlier made me really interested in finding out what kind of pants these will be. Heja! 

Just got myself a pair of 800. Quite a different feel from my orslow 107..

They are now in the bath, I just hope they will shrink in the right places. http://imgur.com/gallery/9WKqwfD

107s are really versatile. Love them! 

Thanks for all replies. I agree with jacket pockets as a first choice. But more often than not I tend to want to also wanna bring the glasses case with a cloth and prescription sun glasses.

Anyone ventured the small bag/murse? What would work for a denimhead? 

Hi! This will be my first post. But it is important nonetheless! 

How do you guys carry your everyday stuff, like wallet, mobile phone, keys etc.?? I don't like my pretty and expensive japanese premium pants getting a phone fade!

When i commute i always have a backpack, sandqvist peter. Great bag! But for the occasions i only need what i can fit in my pockets i don't have a great alternative. What's the solution? 

Thanks for a great forum!

Edit - not a big fan of fanny packs
