RESOLUTE by hayashi-san!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I haven't washed my pair yet. I have the L34 and they measure 32.3" right now. I expect them to shrink at least 0.5" more.

[1fookntitefd]

Anyone know of any US based retailers who carry the 714?

Thank you for your reply. Yes I'm talking about the new 1101. I have the 30 year old model (with red arcs and tabs). It’s true that the difference between the front and back sizes of the jeans is high (12 cm for a W31). Do you know if there is a historical reference to this? I wear a 31 in Fullcount and usually a 33 in Resolute. Maybe the 714 in 32 would suit me…

if you want to look at a reference to the unique shape of the waist, may read this article https://ogbros.jp/fullcount_new_jeans/ , in Full Count's thread

Re the FC 1101 and 714, I have the (old) 1101 in 34 and the 714 in 36 -- love em both.  Back rise is lower on the 714, but not uncomfortably so.  Denim is comfortable and stretchy on both.  Fit is great on both.  I'm a high rise guy, but may prefer the 714 overall to the 1101, which is saying something since I like the 1101.

Je n'ai pas encore lavé ma paire. J'ai le L34 et ils mesurent 32,3" en ce moment. Je m'attends à ce qu'ils rétrécissent d'au moins 0,5" de plus.

Thanks, I think the L34 will be better for me.

En ce qui concerne le FC 1101 et le 714, j'ai le (ancien) 1101 en 34 et le 714 en 36 - je les aime tous les deux. La montée arrière est plus basse sur le 714, mais pas inconfortable. Le denim est confortable et extensible sur les deux. L'ajustement est excellent sur les deux. Je suis un gars de grande hauteur, mais je préfère peut-être le 714 dans l'ensemble au 1101, ce qui dit quelque chose puisque j'aime le 1101.

Thank you for your opinion, I'm going to order the 714, it's a good excuse because I don't have any WW2 jeans in my collection. And I have the impression that this Resolute model may be better suited to Westerners. And what's more, the waist is high (I found the 711 too low). I'm ordering!

[edwardlj]

i dont know how far resolute 714's fabric can stretch, mine is still in its 'close to rigid rinse' state.

 

anyone knows if resolute only sells their RAW/ Rigid within Japan?

zimbabwean cotton !

so given the Zabou article, this claim is wrong.

(question about the source of cotton for Resolute)

[edwardlj]

no, Zimbabwean cotton is impossible~. I think Signet was just joking.

Weather getting cool. Very cozy with the 710. Still thinking whether to get the 714

 

[blooming]

 

Some progress on my 710. Been taking a bit of time off from wearing these lately, but they were a daily pair for a few months at least.

[Geeman]

So looking at Bears charts, Resolutes 31 inch inseam actually measures 29.5!?

(Weird from a brand that markets the variety of options available) 

Given I usually Hem to 29.5 - 30 anyway... can I expect further shrinkage?? 

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Why weird? They still have several inseam options. They just shrink from tag size in the inseam.

And yes, the one-wash is usually not enough like with all brands so it can shrink an inch more.

Weird as in of the wide range of length options , they don't actually measure near the length stated. 

Given the further shrinkage to get my desired length; @ 29-30 nches, I actually should order 33 then!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Well, they are tagged in raw state. Just like Levi's used to do (and LVC does as well?!). The waist is also smaller on the one-wash pairs than the tagged size (although that will stretch and might end up at the tagged size). So not totally abnormal IMO.

 

Edit: yes a L33 is the safer option.

I will measure all the jeans I bought, and post in the relevant threads. ✌️

I finally tried a pair of 710s in a size 34 and they were tight! I couldn’t even button them all the way up… I’m usually a size 31-32 jeans, and according to the Bears measurements the 34 should have been fine, but it turns out they are smaller than I thought.

[Smallrod]

In case anyone is intersted, I picked up the 714 in 33/30.  Gave them a hot wash in the machine and hung them to dry, inseam shrank almost 1/2" and all other dimensions 1/4" give or take a bit.  Inseam right at 28" now.  Wore them 1 day and what needed to stretch did so fairly quickly.  Lovely denim and cut.  I wear the 710 in 34.

Very promising. Did you buy one wash?

[reallypeacedoff]

Yep, OW version. BEARS’ is great for what it’s worth, super helpful and really cool dudes.

[CharlieMike]

@belle_FrEaK I ordered the Resolute 714, the fit seems amazing. I saw that you also had the Denime WW2, is it close to the 714 in terms of cut and details?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

They are pretty similar. The 714 has a slightly higher rise (really just 0.5-1 cm) and is more tapered.

[CharlieMike]

Ils sont assez similaires. Le 714 a une élévation légèrement plus élevée (vraiment seulement 0,5-1 cm) et est plus effilé.

Thank you for your opinion. you must have a nice collection of jeans

[vexed_wear]

Resolute leather patch shrunk after putting it through a home dryer machine.   Has this happened to anyone?

Interesting, I’ve put my 710 and 711 through the dryer and nothing like that @vexed_wear. Maybe the heat was really high?
