The Flat Head

[Superstar]

am I the only one whos totally in love with the "new" arcuates for flat heads?

[gonegonegone]

got my fh310 in size 31 today, which are too tight in the waist (they're for sale, check my signature). anyway, i want to get some flathead denim and the fh310s fit perfectly after the soak, but there is no way i will be able to button the waist. so sizing up one is not really a solution, because they would be too loose around the thighs and calves.

do you think the BSPs in size 33 will be fine fitwise?

[rungo]

If they fit perfectly post-soak, but the waist is too tight, try wetting the waist area then stretching it out/wearing while wet to get the waist larger.

With effort the 3XXXX denim will get an extra 1-1 1/2 "in the waist.

[gonegonegone]

ok will do that.

[gonegonegone]

it is impossible to do that, even with a wet waist. how else can i stretch they waist. the f310 is by far the best fitting jeans i have ever had.

Damn Sid are you wearing those anymore?... they look really great. This is why people should wear their flat heads for more than 6 months - yeah they fade great for that time period but they look amazing if worn for longer. Too many people seem to reach the same point and call it quits.

Edit:

Do you have any full resolution shots uploaded anywhere? I'd appreciate it if you could link.

[sidneylo]

Well, January 2008. It's February 2009 right now. Once the jeans come off the Self Edge display it's going right back into rotation.

[panthermodern]

Oh yeah I forgot they were in the window... good shit

I haven't seen those for so long. Man i thought i was far but its not even close.

Thinking about the Glory Park flannel. I have a winter heavy flannel in red/black size 42. It's just a tad too tight and need to wear it unbuttoned or else it just looks a little too tight. Should I go to a 44 with the Glory Park flannel or stick with a 42 since it looks like the size chart says it's a tad bigger in the chest and shoulders. Although the sleeves look a little shorter, but that shouldn't be an issue. Is the size 44 glory park flannel a much longer than the 42 winter heavy flannel?

[sidneylo]

Just size up one and you should be okay.

which FH are those sid?

i love the arcs so much

[sidneylo]

Flat Head 3001.

You will be hard pressed to find tab/arc jeans unless, perhaps, you scavenge the markets or try rakuten.

[dnm_dnmz]

yups

it was sooo hard to dig those FH now

everytime i search in rakuten the result is nothing

they always sell the new arcs

ive just soaked mine and have been layed out to dry.

would it be ok for me to put them in the dryer? i dont have a washing line atm.

i only ask as i dont want to burn the cotton or make it any harder to fade.

thanks

[amlai]

Just hang them up on a hanger in your shower. No need for a clothes line.

[khoiphan92]

yeah man or just lay a towel on the floor and put the jeans on the towel.

i just washed my jF310 for the first time.. only cold soaked them when i got them.. they fit better around the hips and the bottom leg is more how i want it, just can't get the fuckers around my waist and they hug my ass.. they stretch out again right?

[panthermodern]

yes. 10char
