  1. Wearing my 0105w today. When I've not worn them for a while they feel so baggy and wide but then taking this photo they look just like a regular straight 🤷‍♂️ I think the fabric makes them feel looser. Very comfortable
  2. I got my 220a hemmed by Son of a Stag here in the UK and feel like they did a great job. I'm liking the fit more now as found cuffing them twice or japanese turn up too much especially with boots and didn't wear them as much. Maybe that's just me though. Would have been nice if they had used a lemon coloured thread but not too fussed for £20. Lost some nice roping but imagine after a few washes that will be back.

  4. 29 is a pretty small waist though but you don't seem to have a skinny frame so I think in this case they have a more fitted look. I think they look great though.
  5. Cracking fit. Definitely getting my 220a hemmed now even though there's some decent roping already
  6. So who's dropping $500 for these Bob Dylan bootcuts? https://www.highsnobiety.com/p/bob-dylan-levis-501-a-complete-unknown/
  7. Doh! A bit too careless with my washing and drying this weekend. Wabi - sabi...

  9. That's super useful thanks! Looks like they've not shrunk much at all in the rise looking at the measurements online. Great colour on these!
  10. That would be really helpful thanks. Interesting that the 60s hasn't shrunk as much as the 50s. Maybe I had confused the two when reading about them.
  11. I like the look of the TCB 60s and they seem less trim than resolute 710s. Size 33 in the TCBs have a front rise of 11.5 inches and a back rise of 15 inches. That's a perfect rise for me but does that keep shrinking after washing? Does anyone have measurement of the rise after some good use. I fear they became almost low rise as heard TCB has a tendency to shrink.
  12. Good info. I was also thinking if it's set in 63 then a 55 cut would make sense but they look quite trim and I thought it could be a paper patch seeing how light coloured it was so a 60s-70s seems more likely but I wasn't 100%. Great looking pair of faded jeans though and the whole outfit really is perfect.
  13. Wondering if Nicholson's 501s in One flew over the cuckoo's nest are 47, 55 or 66?
  14. Happy with the shrinkage. They are very stiff at the moment so look a bit weird but I believe they soften up quickly from what I've read here. I washed at 40 low spin but think I should get some more shrinkage in leg next wash. Waist is perfect. These feel like cardboard right now compared to my fullcounts
  15. 220AXX have just arrived from Bears. The preshrink photos are looking promising. Currently in the wash so will post an update once dry which at this current temperature will be in a couple of weeks 🙃
  16. Hat - mitch&ness Jumper - uniqlo Shoes - NB Levis 501xx vintage 90s Cringed as I put my foot through the knee this morning.
  17. It's cold out there. Wool coat vintage Fullcount 0105w Clarks
  18. I just ordered the 220a xx offset in 33x30 from Bears. Never tried STF before so excited and nervous in equal measures. I hope they don't shrink beyond 30inches... Maybe I should have played it safe and got 32 lenght but hemming is a real pain (no chain stitching near me so need to post them out) and I really prefer a no cuff or very thin cuff. I've asked Bears to confirm measurements so hopefully that should help. They're always super helpful
  19. So yours only shrank 3 cm :S well according to Bears measurements. Guess there is variance though
  20. I think I'm going to go with the DENIME Lot.220A OFFSET XX model but now I'm not too sure about sizing. Bears says it shrinks 6cm in waist and lenght but can see other sites are saying less. My perfect waist is 41 to 42 cm measured flat. Should I go for the 32 inch which is 85cm or 33inch which is 88cm? Also inseam wise i like a 30 inch so assume i should go for that as looks like full shrinkage in lenght is just under 31 inches?
