The Flat Head

[braid]

If you just sized up one from true waist you should be golden.

well, my true waist is 33". No fat jokes. But I have no ass or hips so I think they'll work.

[sidneylo]

Eh you'll be fine, just go easy on the soaking…I'm gonna hop back on COD4. It's boring on a Friday.

[cure]

heh, im pretty sure my hips are a 30 inch, but i got a size 29 anyway. i figure i'll just soak the jeans with the waist out of the tub, dry em, then soak the waistband separately and put 'em on. that way the waist will fit a tad better, hoping it will work

[MindxMatters]

Why don't you just soak them all at once and then wear them and stretch the waist out while wet?

[braid]

there's always waist band stretchers too so i'm not worried.

Hip measurement =/= true waist size

[cure]

yeah, but i planning on wearing them lower near my hips anyway

edit: i don't want the rest of the jeans to stretch out really, just the waist a bit. i'm sure the other measurements willb e fine

Did somebody not get the memo?

Standard sizing measurement is your true waist size, or your waist measurement from 2" (inches) below the navel.

It's a basis for measurement, not where you're going to wear your jeans.

[cure]

yeah i'm not arguing with you, i'm just saying its going to take a while before i get to sag em to a comfortable spot.

[sidneylo]

You'll be fine. My nuts need to re-descend after I'm done breaking these jawns in.

[Kodiak]

Nobody has post-soak fit pics of the SE05BSPs yet?

[vjiforlife]

i got sz 34. hope these fuckers fit slim and tight enough after soak....damn sidney, 32.5 inch inseam? Is that long enough for you? the 16.5cm hem is baller though.

[sidneylo]

The length is fine. If you've ever gotten your inseam measured at a tailor, you'll know it's much shorter than these excessively long jawns. Also, you'll need less length as your jeans become more tapered…stacking is going to be pronounced regardless unless they're hemmed to cut offs length.

Mine are fitting great now, I just can't sit down.

I just got mines in size 33 and my actual waist measures 32". I'm DEFINITELY sizing up 1 more because the low rise makes these things pretty high in the crouch area if you've got thighs and ass ( no homo ). And that's pre-soak so I don't even want to think about post soak. They fit really similar to the SEXSC02's in the mid region, and slimmer in the leg then the SEXFH05's. The stacking is seriously ill', I'm going to probably not cut them when I exchange them for 34.

You keeping the 41"…that shit is pretty ridiculous!

[Kodiak]

You keeping the 41"…that shit is pretty ridiculous!

Post-soak, they'll be 38.5" though,, which isn't as ridiculous.

[sidneylo]

I'm 5'10 and my inseam is ~30". I'd like to meet whoever has an inseam near 38.5"…

[Markmont]

You keeping the 41"…that shit is pretty ridiculous!

Yea I figure how often do you get to have an inseam that long, plus I got my sexfh05's with a 35" inseam if ever I don't want to be so ridiculous. Sidney, how do your sexfh05 bk's fit in the waist area? Mines fit great everywhere but the waist, was wandering if anyone else had this issue. If only I could just go 1 or 2 sizes smaller from my size 31's.

--Markmont.

[sidneylo]

The SEXFH05BK ran way too big (only) at the waist. There's nothing you can do about it since sizing down isn't all that much of an option.

[vjiforlife]

this is true. i got a couple of inches taken off so I hope the inseam shrinks up enough after soaking. I don't to much stacking.

The length is fine. If you've ever gotten your inseam measured at a tailor, you'll know it's much shorter than these excessively long jawns. Also, you'll need less length as your jeans become more tapered…stacking is going to be pronounced regardless unless they're hemmed to cut offs length.

Just got these in the mail this afternoon. Thanks again Kiya!

And it's 30 minute warm soak, then 10 minute soak + dryer if I want them to shrink more?

[MindxMatters]

I wouldn't recommend putting them in the dryer, I think they lose a bit of the initial stiffness if you dry them. If they don't shrink up enough after the 30 minute warm soak I'd give them another hot soak and hang dry, or wear them while wet to stretch the waist if you think it might have shrunk too much.

[Battles]

I did an hour warm soak on my 1001's and they turned out great. Hopefully I will have some pictures soon. I'm on my 23th day in them.

[stunna7516]

so for the BSPs from selfedge, if I want a final waist of about 16.5 or so, do I need a 33 or a 34? the sizing seems totally different from typical flatheads, and I noticed the note from selfedge about sizing up, but I wanted a second opinion.

[sidneylo]

I have no idea what you mean by 'final size', but you'll have to consider how these jeans are cut. These jeans ultimately stretch and sit on your hips, are you saying your hips measure out to be 32"?

Please be particular about your measurements. Use true waist size and go from there.

[jojojohn]

I dono if this has been addressed but what exactly is the difference between the SE05BSP and the SEXFH??

They are different cut, SEXFH is a rework of 3001 cut, while SE05BSP is a slim tapered (i guess they're slimmer) and is a new cut.

[Stylish Pilot]

s05bsp isnt as slim in the thighs as the sexfh

[craiggg]

i really don't know what my true size is, measuring round my navel makes me a size 31 but i've worn size 28 jeans whenever i've had them i'm on a size 28 flathead now.

i think i'm going to get these in a size 29, although god knows when i will be wearing them haha

Looks good thatslapz.
