The Flat Head 3001

[sidneylo]

If you wear size 30ish in your jeans, I would suggest a 38 or 40 depending on how relaxed you like your silhouette to be. 36 is small... hella grimey. Only the likes of Sidreyro could wear 36 just so he can steal his girlfriend's grey/blk houndstooth to round out the collection...

As for the fit, it's slim, if you wear 30 and that's how they look get a 30 or 31.

sidneylo, your 3001's seem way tapered than mine, UNFAIR!

mine looks like friggin boot cut

Could just be that we have different body shapes. If you got a bit more hip it might create the illusion of a wider hem... IMO.

Is there anywhere down in the OC/LA area that carries FHs? I would like to check them out in person before I decide to buy.

qom that fit is freaking awesome

You'll need to head up north to Self Edge, until they open up their store down here (which probably won't be anytime soon).

Yea I figured SE was the closest place, but I just thought I'd ask to make sure. Thanks.

qom, looks great ! Too bad there are no longer arcs on your back pockets. Did you remove them yourself?

[Cameland]

qom was one of the first people on superfuture to get 3001s. I think we were telling him only to remove the "ribbons" to turn them into levi's arcs but he took the whole stitch off instead, still looks good though.

Yeah, you did, too late though

I regret it now, although I've heard that the stiching usually come off of itself after awhile of heavy wear.

Thanks for your comments

Qom- your 3001s fit perfect i wished my 3001s had fit that way i should of sized up one owell.s710s here i come.

[Guest mwills]

Just picked these up yesterday off of supermarket. I love them so far! Let me know what you think of the fit.

[Cameland]

Looks good, but I'm not really a fan of the frontier pockets, if I were to get FH's again I'd just get the regular ones from 2nd.

[drapygo]

What's weird is, I saw those backpocket designs, and it also had a red-tab with it. Wasn't that new design suppose to not have any infringing. lol, maybe the guy sewed it on himself.

[CaTasHtRoPhE]

mwills- what size did you get?size up?and if you dont mind height and weight? Have then been soaked the fit looks great.

There was a limited version, with the fronteir pocket stitching, red tab and regular shaped pockets.

[Guest mwills]

They're 29s which is my size with most denim. Pretty much true to size. I'm about the same height and weight as sidneylo so I figured I'd get the same size as him since I like the fit on his. I'm about 5"11 130lbs. They had one warm soak for about 45 min. Thanks for the input

[Traynor]

whats the lowest size the 3001 come in?

[drapygo]

I believe a 27. I also ordered a size 29 for the 4001BK instead of the 27, I think if I did get a 27, it'd be way too small (I'd be risking too much). I hope they don't have no hip flare or something, cause I intend on not washing for like forever. I'm also about 5'11 and skinny as hell.

[Traynor]

haha same delimma as me. All jeans I buy have massive hip flares..making me look like a pear. Where could you order the 27's from?

[SLAB]

nice fit mwills! choosing between a Samurai s710xx or a 3001 has just become even more excruciatingly difficult

I'm in that boat...but am thinking I'm gonna go for the 3001 for now.

Are the measurements on SE pre-soak, I'm assuming?

Received them and couldn't have been happier with the fit. If I were to of got the size 27, wouldn't fit me for shit.

Yes, they're presoak.

[jaspar]

5-6 mos back, I got the last pair of 31's from 2nd w/ arcs + tabs that were infamously tight even pre-soak. Following is a picture...

I couldn't even get them on post-soak and I wound up selling them to Beatle. I lost weight since then. I want to get a new pair, but - if they really shrink continue shrinking even after 3-6 washes - I don't know if I should get the 32 and only cold soak and wash them or get the 33's and warm soak and wash.

I wear a 31 in almost everything, 28 in APC NS.

[sidneylo]

Please size up one.

[kiya]

Please size up one.

Size up two.

[sidneylo]

Depends... do you want ball fades?

[jaspar]

That picture is of my wearing the 31's. So, to size up 1 would be to wear 32, 2 would be to wear 33?

Ball fades would be dope if they weren't earned through painful ball cleavage.

[theetruscan]

Size up two.

Is that general advice, or to jaspar? I'm near to buying some F310s for a friend. He's got stick-thin legs and a true 30 waist.

That was for Jaspar.

For almost anybody else i'd say size up one, they shrink like mad and don't stretch much.
