The Flat Head

[inyourface1]

some guy wants to sell me FH 1001s for 260 soaked once worn for three days for 260 shipped. Am I being massively ripped off or is this a decent deal? I am such a noob with Flatheads.

[Guest Midnite8]

That's a decent deal, your not being ripped off.

[inyourface1]

That's a decent deal, your not being ripped off.

thanks for the input i think ill go with that.

HOPE i dont get murdered for asking this question but:

Are there fake Flatheads out there and if there are,

what are some distinctive differences?

UPDATE: FH F380

apprx 11 months wear

5 washes , 5 soaks

[jays978]

and the worst part is, here in my place, every bastards love to size the shit down til they're tight enough for their liking when the jeans themselves are not meant to be skinny. Dear, God.

I FEEL your frustration. F***in posers

[Hendodo]

^^ wait i don't get it.. what makes them posers? if they can size down that much, it must mean that they were getting too big of a size to begin with..I don't understand how someone can be a poser if they sized down a couple on okinawas, FH F380's, or another straight/full cut, because it was too big for their waists at the size they bought..

[stewiegriffin]

frustrate? well, i don't and i'd never will be, i just don't get the idea.

my point is.. straight jeans exist for a reason and so do the skinny ones.

jay, i think you're just over-reacting to my statement.

OK this is a shameless plug but I have a pair of unworn 5005's for sale in a w34 with original tags and arcs:

Can anyone else speak to the ass bulge with Flatheads? Giles at Flathead.co.uk says that it decreases as the denim molds to your body. I would like to believe this since I just dropped $300 on a pair

SPEAKING TO THE ASS BULGE. honestly, i gave my f380s a fair chance over several months and a couple washes. the ass bulge failed to magically mould itself to my body shape. i rotate iron heart 634s, skull 5507s and sda 103s, all in the same size. imho, the flatheads had the least flattering cut in the butt department.

how is the fading on the 1 series denim compared to the 3 series? specifically the 1005 vs 3005 if it makes a difference... thanks for any help in advance

Lando, did you win the lotto or do you have a huge disposable income?

No, I won a serious Bingo tournament on a cruise ship. You wouldn't believe how much cash gets spread around on one of those things...

just wondering since there are already fakes for nudies and i hear apcs, are there fakes out for brands like flathead?

if so, what would be an easy way to differentiate?　i hear some people make really similar fakes.

[chambo2008]

i don't belive so they are not mainstream enough

[mrjfang]

Went to Self Edge SF today, and tried on a ton of different jeans, and settled on the Flathead x Self Edge x Inazumas. Before I went in today I had no idea they even existed, and I can't really find info for them anywhere either. Now I'm off to soak them

[Guest Midnite8]

ohh those r the red stitching ones niiice

If for some reason you do come across a fake, of any jeans usually, the main differences that I have seen are usually in the waistband, ie. stitching, label, small things like that. Also pay attention to the way the back patch, if there is one, is attached.

Hopefully you never have to come across fake FHs tho, that would be really sad.

I know people used to come across fake Evisus in the past, and lost a lot of money doing so:(

Nice! Can you post measurements on those size 29? Thanks

[Vinneus]

hmmmm... idk how i feel about the red/blue stitch. prolly look siq after the pockets fade though!

[panthermodern]

I was also undecided about the two tone arcs but after seeing them in person today I was pleasantly surprised. They look nicer than I thought.

A receipt from Self Edge.

[fashunhor]

^^Ha! Indeed!

[mrjfang]

the Inazumas were finally dry and I like the fit. Its slim, but not extremely tight. I'll take pics when I get back on campus so one of my friends can take the pics or something. As for the measurements, I'll look up how to take the measurements first hahah

[appfaff]

Great news about the Inazumas mrjfang. Can't wait to see what these look like on.

[mrjfang]

Here are some pics from my laptop's webcam. They aren't the best pics, but I will put up new ones once i get access to a camera
