The Flat Head

[KENT4]

if that was a post soak fit it would be close to perfect ( youb are gonna soak the top block arnt you ) kind of off topic but have you any pics of your left arm in the tattoo thread, been working on something similar myself

I wansn´t planning on soaking the top, I will wait a few week until it loosens up a little.

I will post some pictures of tattoos on the thread.

if your scared about shrinkage in the waist you could allways put a hanger in the waist

hey does anyone know whether the 3001/1001's from 2nd are the same sizes/measurements as the ones from selfedge? I only ask because 2nd hasnt got any measurements posted up, and I read somewhere that there may be differences with tagged sizes

and is the general consensus that going TTS is the best method or should I size down? Thanks

Flat Head denim has the potential to shrink a lot. Here's the advice I've given friends:

Skinny Thighs

Go TTS. Cold soak and wash for a flattering slim straight fit, hot soak and use a dryer once in the future for a skinny fit.

Musuclar Thighs

Go TTS and cold soak/wash for a slim straight fit.

Size up 1 and hot soak/use dryer once for similar fit, but with more forgiving thigh room.

The last method is what I did and I'm very pleased with the fit and comfort.

Everybody posting their 4001s is giving me trouble with keeping my wallet in my pocket. I need black warp/white weft jeans...

[ashkaun]

Here are my BSPs at however many months of wear. I'm pretty sure I've worn them since july more or less religiously.

how soft the sexrrxfh denim is compared to regular 3001?

[stresMaldo]

dont have/have never seen 3001's in person, but I own 4001's and the ringring collab, and I can say they are completely different, texture-wise.

The ringrings, after wearing them for less than a month, are the softest pair I own. They are left hand twill, so it makes sense.

I am not sure because I don t own a pair of 3001, but they are pretty amazing and probably the most unique denim I own.

That's gotta be you. The belt was a dead give away

I just got done photographing the flathead crew for Inventory. Kobayashi san gave me a pair of 3009. Gonna soak them now. Not sure of the shrinkage so I'm gonna start with a warm soak.

[ThinFinn]

[Guest nooblet333]

Nice Macro's

[Farhad]

work has been kicking my butt. I'm beat and haven't had a chance to look through the pics yet. just finished the shoot earlier today. plus, I can't post anything that I'm going to submit. however, I promise to post pics that I didn't submit. would you settle for this pic of me and Kobayashi san for now.

On a side note, the story is gonna be in the fall issue. 8-10 page article on Flat Head.

Yea but who is the best assistant ever?

Ok so still trying to figure out these FHxRR jeans.

Had them for maybe 2 months now, but very minimal wear (Aussie summer has been ridiculous).

Tagged size: 30

Actual Waist size: 33

Hem length: 32

This is after a (2nd) boiling hot soak! Pre-soak waist was still 33, I can't get these things to shrink.

I honestly wish I sized down to a 29, the waist isn't very comfortable with this much room.

The two front belt loops don't really leave much room for my FH belt buckle.

hey guys-

coming back into the denim game after having bought a pair of F310's in a size 31 a while back. in the past two years, i've reverted back to just wearing APC NS sz 29s and have so today, which probably makes me a natural waist sz 31-32.

I just dug up my F310s and they are woefully small now (especially the thigh). A large part of this is that they have been mistakenly put in the washer and even in the dry cleaner... if I had treated it properly, would it still have maintained a waist sz 31?

I'm reconsidering getting the F310 again but honestly, I am confused by all the various models mentioned here and on selfedge. Is the 310 on selfedge the same F310 I got three years ago (i thought the f310 was a limited edition)? i'm guessing selfedge is the best place to buy flathead gear?

I want the APC NS silhouette sz 29 fit (slim, but not too slim) but want it at a high grade denim that'll fade well. i'm open-minded to any other brands but i've liked flathead as a company a lot when i used to wear their gear

i know, i know... sound like a complete noob here. as in the past, i'm obligated to anyone who can reach out a hand and help me out here-

i'll post some pics of my three year old f310 to contribute to the thread later

I usually do this to get most of the shrinkage out.

hotsoak -> dryer -> hotsoak -> hang dry

Im a bit confused about the f310. It says in the measurements on Selfedge that its straight from the knee to the hem, but in some post soak measurements i´ve seen that the hem is 0,5 inches narrower than the knee... someone help me out here

There is a slight taper which will becomes less noticeable depending on how much you hem.
