The Flat Head

[pat0]

Hi all,

 

I'm interesting in the flat head straight model but I'm skinny (180 cm and 62 kg) so which model is my choice ?

 

 

Thank you  

[Max Power]

Sounds like 3009 or even more the 3002  could be your fits.

Thank you  

The 3002 would suit your build for sure but has a taper. The f310 is a slim straight fit and the 1001 16 oz denim is a flattering straight fit.

there are dozens of better looking pairs in this thread [before mine] so you may be underwhelmed with the wear on my pair. 9 months, many washes/soaks. stitching coming undone almost everywhere. so soft and comfortable at this point. gonna keep wearing these 6-7 days a week until i grab some RJBs in may.

Nice looking pair right there!

[Planetarium]

yeah and the jeans ain't bad either

[Cold Summer]

Those look great rosarkar, the lighting's not ideal but they've faded very nicely. 

[Cold Summer]

Took some evo pictures of my 100s today.  These have 2.5 months of real wear time, first wash (after the initial soak) at 2 months.  Can't believe how fast these are fading; then again, between moving several offices and riding my bicycle for about half an hour almost every day, that could explain it. 

 

Colors and contrast are true to life, though a few of the later pics are a little washed out.  A little snow was falling when I took these, that's why there are some streaks and white spots. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I like these jeans a lot.  I'm really impressed with them so far and I'm looking forward to watching how they continue to age.  I'll give them their second wash at four months' real wear time.

[youngofthesoonest]

nice those are coming out well!

[Zekdafied]

TFH 3009 are mine! I'll post up some pictures later. After making a mistake on a recent purchase, I had to try the 3009 on again. One thing led to another... 

 

Looking forward to these. The cut is dope! 

 

I kind of feel bad now, since I was posting in the FC thread earlier, saying how I wanted a pair... Haha.

please post fit pics!!  Been wanting to see how they look on...

[Zekdafied]

As promised. I luke warm soaked them for 30 minutes. The fit is friggin' amazing. It looks a little tight in the pics, but it's got a decent amount of room in the top block. The rise is good. Thighs shrunk a little bit and are very snug but still have some slack to grab onto. They are stiff but feel like second skin. 

 

I'm a size 33 waist with a little extra. These are a tag size 34. I tried both the 33 and 34. These were definitely the way to go.

 

In case you cannot tell, I'm incredibly happy with these already. I'm going to wear them every day. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Post soak: (Wore them for 15 minutes before taking these measurements)

 

Upper Thigh: 12.2''

Leg Opening: 8''

Waist: 33.3''

Inseam: 33.7'' 

 

Waist didn't shrink as much as I thought it would. Granted I did a warm soak. What surprised me the most was how much the inseam went up. 

 

Cheers!

perfect fit my friend

awesome fit zekdafied

[Davil]

Very nice cold summer!

[Kyle@TFH]

So I tried on a few different items yesterday. Thought I'd snap a few pictures for you guys too, hope this is helpful.

First I tried on some F380s. These are a really nice straight cut, slimmer than the 3005. I usually wear a 32 but went down to a 31 for these pics, I think the size 32 would shrink to fit roughly like this. Shirt's the HN-64W, normally I wear western shirts but I found this shirt to be a nice fit, and very, very comfortable as well. I want a blanket made out of this stuff.

These go really well with my boots, and have a very long inseam, along with a longer rise than many FH models (which I tried to show in this picture.)

I also tried on the red version of the shirt.

And this scarf. I have the old Merino wool scarf from a few years ago and wear it all the time, but this one feels and looks even better. It's bigger than the old design, and has a great color and pattern. Think I might buy this one for myself, soon.

On point Zek. Throw a cuff on those!

Kyle, every damn pair of jeans fit you well...

Kyle, Merry Christmas from the states...You guys coming down to Inspiration LA in February?

[Cold Summer]

Hey guys, thought I'd give an update on my Stockburg wallet and kangaroo leather braided rope.  I've been using these daily for the past nine months.  Both have only been treated once (with a light application of leather conditioner.)  I'm really happy with how these have changed over time. 

 

 

 

 

 

I've never treated the silver concho with anything.  I like how cloudy and tarnished it looks.

 

 

And the inside. 

 

 

In the last pic, you can see how the card case works.  The flap folds open, creating a large, broad surface that makes it easy to handle coins. It's easier to use than stuffing your hand into the coin case trying to get the coins out.

TFH 3009 at two months of wear. This is a size 31, very comfortable fit. I guess I could have made a size 30 work too for a slimmer fit.

 

[Cold Summer]

Fit looks perfect to me!  Those are some amazing whiskers for just two months.

[LC_Miey]

good fit indeed.. one day I hope I can own a pair of 3009 but it will satisfy my fantasy if TFH produce them in their 16oz denim

That's a great wallet. Love the heavy gauge stitching.

Roping on my 4 month old 3002

Edited December 27, 2013 by cmboland

[Cold Summer]

Roping looks great cmboland, I think your jeans are just about at the point where they'll really start coming to life.

 

sirxlaughs: My wallet has the best stitching of anything I own.  I've seen them perform this stitching in person, it's really impressive.  They use waxed cow tendon thread, sewn with two interlocking stitching of thread going opposite sides through the same hole.  It's hard to describe but I honestly can't imagine the stitching ever breaking down.  The fact that it looks better with age is also a nice bonus.

[aho]

mat_wue that is a perfect fit. the mistake that most people make is sizing one more down than that (on other pairs in general) and we all get our fill of manly robust thighs with painted on/"slim" jeans/strong tapers....

[cmboland]

More shots.

[tmadd]

Agree with aho that your fit is perfect mat_wue.  Sure you could fit in one smaller waist size, but your hips would be bulging...you've got a perfectly trim fit in the top block sized as is.  

 

I've gotten my first peak at 3012s in limited sizes, and I'm very excited about this cut...I think it has potential to be INSANELY versatile.

[shoreman]

Love the fit on those F380s. Looks like there's a healthy front and rear rise with ample room in the thigh, which is exactly what I am looking for in a jean. I noticed SE's stock is almost entirely depleted--as per their online shop. Any one else not in Japan have decent stock left in this model?

(Want those work shirts, too. Damn.)

[itsbenhere]

I thought the f380 and the 3009 were the same cut?  I feel like the both rises on my pair would not really be called low (especially the back rise) and the thighs are definitely roomier than a lot of jeans I've had...
