The Flat Head

[superslim_zac]

never hav ei ever experienced this much pain in my right hand's thumb then getting these fuckers on for the first time..

I'll say. They weren't too small after soak, just very hard to get the buttons in. Ouch my thumb.

Pre soak/post soak

Nice................

Good fit. I want more flatheads. Bad.

dont the 1001's fit exactly like the 3001's? they are just different weigh denim correct?

[lim f(x) = f(a)]

shit i don't know. it's a fucking great slim fit almost in a class of it's own. tight in the thigh, but not too tight; loose in the calf, but not baggy; low-ish rise, but not sagging. i dunno.

Cheers, sounds pretty good and I'll wait for the fotos.

zac, you get yours hemmed at all? clay at self edge looked at me like i was retarded when i told him i didn't want mine hemmed at all. haha.

pics coming soon.

[midnight]

Just did a hot soak for a couple hours on my new 1001's. Presoak they didn't feel too tight, nor were they baggy, so i think they'll fit perfectly postsoak. They are long, though. I'll see how they stack, and if they look retarded, i'll hem.

[themexican]

okay so... after letting the jeans dry for a tad after the initial soak, i'm find they've shrunk to just about perfect (maybe a little to tight) snugness.never hav ei ever experienced this much pain in my right hand's thumb then getting these fuckers on for the first time. haha. this is heavy motherfucking denim

fit pics tomorrow... hopefully.

my blister finally went away, and the button actually cut between my nail and thumb. I solved the tight top button by jamming a highlighter in there while they were wet. stretched it out enough to button.

Now everything has loosened up to just right.

They are probs pretty near on 35 in length post soak.

I only found it hard the first time it's all good now.

[operationjake]

i think mine are around 36.5" or so.

and yeah, i also found it hard only the first time (while they were wet too... weird.)

[operationjake]

sorry for the whole ugly thing. tried to change that a few years ago but gave up.

i'll get some others up sometime soon.

^ too tight in the thigh... not working for your body type

[operationjake]

uhhhh i disagree but thanks for the comment.

i love how it fits in the thigh... i tend to like the skinny-ish fit in my jeans. it's quite a change form my shearers. and plus, "my body type"? obviously i'm not skinny, but i think a slim thigh fit looks better on someone with thigh muscle than someone with chicken legs.

[poopslush]

no beef, but they look like you sized down too many. I think that straighter legged jeans work better for people with "athletic" body types, while junkie looking kids can wear tapered steez better. If those are new though they will stretch out though so maybe its too early to call the shots.

haha. yeah, they've actually stretched about .5" and this is the second day wearing em (that was taken rightttttt after the soak) so they're looser and will probably continue to get so.

anyways, these were more or less a replacement to my sold diors (however much fucked up that sounds...) so i like the fit with the better quality denim. sorry if i came across in a "wtf?!" way but i do really like the fit haha.

edit: oh, and i didn't size down any... so if anyone has any sizing questions, i went true to size and they stretched a comfortable amount so they're veryyy comfortable and snug with a nice tighter fit that i like. so yeah.

[jiomitori]

They look fine.

Great fit jake, looks like they fit you almost exactly like my 1001's do on me.

Plus they'll stretch.

you're just in denial. because it doesn't.

....Mich is right though...they'll stretch. You'll live.

[midnight]

I'm wearing my 1001's right now. All dried and shit. I fucking love them. These are probably my favorite jean. They are not as slim as I was expecting, but i'm happy about that. If you're thinking about getting a pair but haven't yet, go for it.

[edmond]

midnight.. they have the same cut as the 001 eg 3001 , 4001 series..

[skistar]

ya Jake, those fit good... my 310's were probably even tighter than that in the thighs and they stretched out and now fit perfectly after 3-4 months. wear em hard and enjoy!

[braid]

Jake, very nice, I like the fit. They dont look too tight in the thigh and the stacking looks good.

fat dude in slim jeans = new anti-hipster? haha.

thanks to all. as a note, after the soak i wore them for a bit and then let them dry while hanging up. the denim was stiff and heavy enough for them to stand up on their own... haha. within one full day of wear, though, they're comfy as fuck and stretched bout .5" in the waist.

I know. I was just expecting them to fit a bit slimmer than they do due to measurements and shit.

i've heard the 3001's and the 310's don't stretch but my 1001's waist has stretched back to pre-soak measurement. went true to size 32 waist pre-soak 17, post soak 15.5 , been wearing since 7/11 3-4 times a week and now measure 17 again.

with the low rise they sit right on my hips now and i love the fit. these are not tapered. mine fit pretty much the same as jake's. the thigh fits a little snug (not tight) and the calf a little loose.

mine measure about .25" under pre-soak measurements. just like yours, they sit right on my hips exactly where i want my jeans to sit (not sagging, and not even really "slouchy") and they fit damn good.

glad you're liking, my mexican friend. funny as it sounds, the combs and whiskers (on the front and back) are already fading.

[enojy]

looks good jake. to the guy who said they're too slim, keep in mind they're still brand new, and that's hardly how they'll fit a month down the line. they are pretty slim now but i'm sure they'll stretch to accommodate, given however much 1000 denim stretches... who knows...?

yup mine too, that just encourages me to keep going. will post fit picks when i get a chance.
