I've found you only need to size up one from your normal size if you plan on washing/drying weekly. If you buy them one-wash, they are already pretty well-shrunk.

Checking the Resolute Instagram and the 714 has been revealed as a WW2 era cut. Interesting development, maybe a pair I can finally wear. :D

I personally intend on trying the more washing method but not machine dry. Given so, if 26 is too tight, 27 is the play? I have a pair of tcbs in size 26 which measure to be 68, however slightly loose. From the dimensions ive also read up on says 68 also, but given i wash them frequently i dont thinik itll stretch that much from there. thanks!

Same denim as the 711 (so I heard) but a higher rise model. And the typical WW2 details

Isn't there the widest selection of brands that don't aspire to make repros? Oni, Momotaro, SDA, Samurai, etc.

In which ways does it differ from the 710?

In all? :D Well, it will be a wider pair than the 710 for sure.

And as a WW2 model probably wieder than the 711 but not as wide as other maker's WW2 models (that's the information I have for now).
So better compare it with the 711 than the 710.

I forgot the important word "denim".

 

I mean the denim- in which way does the 711 denim- which apparently will be used for the upcoming WWII jeans-  differ from the 710 one?

:D
It is lighter in ounce (a little bit), I find it a bit more irregular and the indigo tone is lighter and more greyish.
It's one of my favourite denims when raw, almost new.
But somehow I'm not the biggest fan of the fades I've seen with this denim. "Most" Resolute owners wash quite frequently and so the fades are more even and the denim more washed out. The 710 denim looks better with this routine than the 711 (IMO). So I probably wash my 711 (and maybe the 714) less frequently).

I had a pair of secondhand 711's which I've since sold, the denim was nice but the cut wasn't my favorite.
Interested to see the measurements and detail photos on the 714. I've always wanted to try the 710 but I know the cut just isn't for me.

Having JUST bought a new pair of 711, I am grateful for your findings on this. I wasn't sure if I wanted to do a weekly wash routine on them.

@beautiful_FrEaK lol fair enough! I like the effect frequent washing has on the 710 denim, but I wouldn't mind slightly more contrasting fades on the 711 given the darker color when new.

 

714s are tempting me, man. I don't own a WW2 pair yet, either :unsure2:

So my 710s arrived today, earlier than expected. I am quite pleased with them - the fit was immediately comfortable, but snug. It's probably as tight as I'd want to go on the initial fit, and I think they'll end up perfect.

These will be my dedicated office jeans for the foreseeable future and will see about equal wear as my WH 1001xx this year. I'm planning to wash the Resolutes monthly and every 3 months or so on the Warehouses.

The autograph was on the front right pocket bag, and the souvenir was a really cool Resolute coffee mug (quite high quality for a plastic mug). I will get a pic of the jeans and the souvenir/autograph up in the next few days.

Jealous of the coffee mug! 

Congrats on the new 710s, they are such a good daily driver pair and they look good with everything.

Gotta check Instagram. Boysmarket posted a fit pic. Those above are just pictures I got sent from the exhibition 

They look great. I’m excited.
