Thought I'd post an updated fit of my 0105w seeing as I got the 32. I've washed and dried on high to shrink the inseam a couple of times but think at most I lost half an inch. Was thinking about getting them hemmed but the double cuff is growing on me. Loving the colour of the indigo now. Looks very saturated. It's great being able to wash and dry as normal and not worry that they will get too slim. The waist stretches back to the point i need a belt. Very comfortable. I'm stoked!

It's such a great fit. The raw denim looks great with the formal trousers in the same colour

Is there any good examples of how the banner denim for Denime fades? The 10% brown cotton blend sounds interesting

My 0105s in 32 have arrived from Japan just now. 5 days to the UK. Pretty damn fast and great customer service from FC who were able to pick a pair out for me and let me know the waist measurement before shipping. These fit ALOT more comfortably in the waist than the 31s (which I seemed to be unlucky with and they were undersized) Will be giving them a good 40 wash first to get rid of most of the shrinkage. Looking forward to wearing these a lot. Their standard 13.7oz is so comfortable from the start. Not sure what other brand can really compare in that department.

They are pretty tight. They measured 37 cm across when they arrived (size guide had them as 40) and they've now stretched to 39. I was hoping to start around 40 and stretch them to around 42 so don't think it's gonna happen. I compared measurements between the TCB 50s and FCs just there and 50s are slightly bigger everywhere apart from the rise. Funny as from the photos I feel FCs look significantly wider.

Thought I'd post my size 34s 50s now they're dry after their soak. Honestly I'm not 100% sure. I guess due to how 'crispy' they still are they aren't drapping how they eventually will look. In comparison fullcount 0105w 31s seem to just look better but then they are much softer. 31 in the FC's waist is too tight so I'm considering getting a 32 in those or sticking with these TCB 50s Thoughts?

So my 34 50s have arrived from TCB Japan today. Hemmed perfectly and i like how they sent the cut offs which will be handy for any repairs. They measure 40cm across. Which is 1cm less than the size chart but fair enough I can live with that. One thing that's surprised me with the denim is how stiff and starchy they seem. Cardboard like. I guess because they are Zimbabwean cotton I had expected them to be very similar to my 13.7oz 0105w fullcounts. The FCs are noticeably softer and stretchier new than these TCB 50s. So do the TCBs just take a bit more wearing and maybe a soak to become more relaxed in the waist and less stiff? Elsewhere I like the fit. The rise could be a tad looser but again hoping with wear things will expand?

So plot twist i pulled the trigger on the 34. I measured my waist again and largest measurement was actually 88 cm. I have a pair of old Levis that measure 43 cm across like the tcb 36s and I was constantly hiking them up today. I think the 34 will allow me to wear them without a belt but still be comfortable. Fingers crossed

Appreciate the replies! I measured my waist and smallest measurement is 89cm and largest measurement is 90cm. The 36 on TCB's website has the 36 as 91cm around and 34 as 86cm so I think seems safer to go with the 36

Hi TCB owners I'm looking to get some TCB50s but seem to be in between sizes 34 and 36. My prefect waist size when jeans are measured flat is 41.5 cm I'm looking for a loose relaxed look so I'm wondering if the 34 would be too slim? I've not exactly got huge legs though. I'm a size 32 in Fullcounts 0105W and a 33 in resolute 714 if that helps

Hello! Thought I'd post my 714s on here. 6 months of regular wear. I was planning on not washing these much to see if I could get a bit more contrast but with young kids that hasn’t been possible. They are still starting to get interesting though and I really like the denim. These are a 32 33. I probably should have gone with a 33 for less of a fitted look. Maybe next time

Appreciate the advice guys. I'd put 34 but actually had meant 33 so not a huge jump from 31 but still. It's a shame these are a 37.5 instead of 40cm but aware there can be a couple of cm variance either side and the wash process looks pretty intensive looking at the patch. I might stick with these then and hopefully they will stretch to 40 - 41 cm and loosen up over time. Will they shrink back though to 37.5 every time I wash them? Say at 30 temperature?

Hey looking for some size advice for the 0105w 13.7 oz. My 31s have arrived but they measure 37.5 cm across the waist instead of the advertised 40cm. So they feel pretty tight. I can exchange in shop but they are out of 32s and they only have one 34 left which measure 42cm across. Should I go with the exchange or will the 31 stretch to feel more comfortable?
