[grooveholmes]

I don't like the smell of turquoise.

Nice cameltoe!

In the states we call that a fuzzy moosehoof, or a mos def. But that's the other kind, the inny, not the outy.

Grooveholmes, just accept it. Before this is over you will be as fond of my crotch as I am.

Eltopo, I really don't know what to say, That is insanely dirty. You should be ashamed. But I don't guess that violates rule #7.

[dkatz]

Nothing here. Did get a nice bandana, though. Thanks dkatz.

I wasn't planning to wear it as a loincloth, but who knows.

Loincloth pics or next thing to arrive in the post (before your ROYs, obviously) will be a steaming pile of what Ugandan food does to me.

uh. And no bandana too. Shitty service as usual from poste italiane

It's a race!

Hung out with the deer today in the backyard, couple snaps of the Roy's. Cold and wet and I'm not talking about the weather. heheheheh

Of course you have that shirt. God damnit, eltopo.

Eltopo, I really don't know what to say, That is insanely dirty. You should be ashamed. But I don't guess that violates rule #7.

YOU, my friend, are not one to talk.

[roy6]

God, every time I scroll through this page I go really fast when I get to "that" deer picture. Why is it so disturbing?

[robbie]

Eltopo, you don't hunt I guess? Or you do and have a giant feeder off out of sight. 3 does, ever see any bucks?

I only have a passing interest in deer hunting because of my current geographic location... for the last 2 months its all i've heard about in town or on tv..

[pomata]

SUP GUYS!!!

[pomata]

smaller than expected, but the fit is gonna be ok after soak.

oh and the jeans were delivered at my parent's place by a naked Carla Bruni

[Paul T]

Hahaha, happy for you, Pomata!

My appreciation of the irony is now accompanied by faint despair.

[ThinFinn]

FINALLY ...So now just only one is missing, Paul T!

So you'll get yours the next couple of days then,trust me mate!...

[pomata]

hold on Paul!

all I can say is that the jeans are worth the wait

[dr.house]

Great Ale, crossing my fingers for Paul!

[The Clerk]

Nice one Ale and like shoes btw. Can't be long now Paul. the postal service can't be that lopsided..... can it?

[lostinthesupermarket]

Fingers crossed for you Paul.

[fardin]

great pomata you got yours. looking nice. are going to fit you perfect post soak as it seems.

lost , great pic and beautiful pair, awesome fit!

[dr.house]

Nice, lostinthesupermrket. Same sizing/shrinking thing like the 32", fits you great. But you've lost a lot inseamwise!

Did they really let you get that close to them? Looks like you aren't more than 20 yards away. I've had them get that close to me during deer season, but they were running in fear, I was still, and they didn't know exactly what I was.

Opening day this year, as my buddy and I stood there bullshitting and smoking, I had three doe come through the woods and stop about 30 yards away. They looked at us for a minute or so, trying to figure us out, then looped around us and headed outta the woods. Later in the day I had a dozen more come through the woods and stopped in the exact same spot, and looped around me the exact same as the group earlier in the day. Didn't have a doe tag, so I just stood there and watched them. Neat to get that close to them, and watch them try to figure out what I was. I was still like a tree, but didn't have quite the right shape.

[eltopo]

Pomata and Lost looking great!!!!!!

Yes the deer do let me get that close to them. They are pretty tame. I don't hunt. I have gotten super close to them before, they normally start to stomp when they get pissed. I see the same ones everyday sametime. The bucks come out with the group every now and then but not that often. I stay away from them normally.

[roy6]

Congratulations Pomata- I'll bet they look prefect after a soak.

LITS- pretty amazing. Tell me you do something desk-bound for a living so you won't be too much competition!

Still not one bad fit out of the lot.

Shortylong- how about some more pics, although of course your first full frontal face-reveal was great...

[pomata]

^thanks.

the size is not really what I asked for though.

ordered size 34

after soak measurements are around (less than) 32

they'll stretch and fit but I'm not very fond of snug waists

[dr.house]

Interesting thing is that we were talking about a more or less loose fit in the beginning. Don't get me wrong, I dig the special fit of the ROYs, but from what I've seen it's all around a lot more on the trim side.

[almostnice]

would also like to know what happened to the 32's.

following Roys directive we measured what we should expect after a soak/wash...

[Dr_Heech]

did you order a size34?

Glad You got your Roy's at last.

Now just Paul

Yeah, size 34 but originally asked for a 33.5, swiftly replaced with a 34 due to no half sizes.

Put them on damp this morning when I got up to go to work, wore them all day and now they are dry. Very comfortable, especially like the slit-like pockets (they're a bit like Bluebell/wranglers).

More shrinkage to come without a doubt !

@Lost..

Great fit there,

@Eltopo

Beautifull pics as always.

I am liking the slimness of the ROYs. It allows me to wear my somewhat sleek Alden cordos, which I couldn't do with the AB Elfelts.

[roy6]

If I were to give my ordered 33"s another warm soak, I'll bet they would get down to about a 32".

Did everyone end up slightly undersized?

PaulT- you can answer that later today after your jeans have arrived.

No under sizing here. I asked for a 31 and I received about a 32.5 preshrink.

[entertainment!]

I ordered 34 and got a 36 presoak, but erk ordered a 35 and seemed to get the same size.

[pomata]

Really strange. My 34 measured 34.5 raw and shrank to a 32. I`m wearing them now and I`m happy with the fit. Quite snug around the waist but really comfortable in the crotch area.

Great 'vertical falling' in the denim!
