Somet 008- Approximately 8.5 months of continuous wear:

[mrpenguin354]

the selvedge line repair is really cool! nice to see some faded pics, keep up the good work! somets may be next on my long list .

[toufu]

how many washes toxic?

[opethrapture]

Those have to be one of the best looking Somet's out there!!

[grasp]

Thought of getting the 008..

i'm a true size 32, should i get 29 in 008 (as it measures 32 from big)..?

I'm worry that it will be too small since it's a low rise

Please suggest...

[Florian.FloC]

I might only size down two if I were you

[toufu]

disregard waist measurements....these are extremely tight.....make sure u can even get into them

I have the 018 Black selvedge in a size 35. I normally wear a 36 in most other jeans. These were initially tight and stiff but have stretched and are now comfortable to a little loose. The rise is definitely lower than many other jeans. The denim weave is very tight and feels very smooth.

Thanks for all the valuable comments...

the problem is that i couldn't get to try it in person, so i need help on the sizing.

as sizing 3 down seems not ok to me...

i want to wear it tight but not skin tight.

so i guess sizing down 1 or 2 is ok right?

im a 29 true waist, i got a size 28 in the 018's. they are a little loose in the waist at 31" since i measure about 30.5" where the jeans sit; however, they are pretty much skin tight as of now. i have a little room in the thighs but they are tight as hell around my calfs

[duck sauce]

just got the 008s in 26!!

Soak?

[kino]

soaking won't do anything since the denim is sanforized

[duck sauce]

i mean like its really stiff, and theres still some creases from shipping/other people trying it on

would soaking get those out?

[iralex]

What ladies out there have somets? I might be tryna cop a pair...

[duck sauce]

i think kino, but she got em a size too big or sumthing, you mite want to go true to size or down one, it wont shrink that much in wash but wont stretch too much either

[gazeboarder]

I soaked my 018 even though they are sanforized. It did make the denim slightly softer. I soaked them in warm to hot water for about an hour. The crispy feeling behind the knee was reduced. I've now worn mine for a few days and they are more comfortable.

it would, better yet wear them while they're slightly damp so that you get defined creases

i do have one but i think the crotch is abit weird on the somet but i think it's only because it's still very stiff/new. once it softens up it should be okay.

[toufu]

duck sauce: nailed the 008 fit. congrats.

i mean like its really stiff, and theres still some creases from shipping/other people trying it on

regular wear will get those out

if you soak now you'll lose starch, its gonna be softer but is gonna take longer to get defined creases, which means it'll take longer to fade.

the stiffness is the rawness, learn to love it, wear it till its buttery soft!

it would, better yet wear them while they're slightly damp so that you get defined creases

i don't recommend wearing it damp, creases won't set as it would naturally, and you might get an exaggerated knee bulge due to the stretching.

[Kev07]

my size 30 018s are still for sale, or for trade! i'd love a pair of 005s

Soak?

ht/wt?? what size do u wear for most other jeans?

Im a size 27 in dior 19cm... looking at the size chart, i was thinking of getting 26 or 27.. am i crazy to be doing that or it will be perfect ?

[duck sauce]

well ive never tried the 19cm, but im a 25-26 waist normally

it all actually depends on how much ur hip flares out, there was a rise chart somewhere in this thread, you're supposed to measure right above the hip bone, maybe two inches above. the back rise is also higher than the front, so that has to be accounted for so

i.e if it measures 29 2 inches above your waist, then go with a 26, if its 31, then 28. you might want to size down one, as they stretch a tiny bit

im 5'7 110lbs

[luxaeterna]

I've read through this entire thread now...I've gotta get some of these man, those 018's are sooo tempting. I'm probably going to wait until I can try them on at a store though, so either BiG or Tokyo, lol.

dior 19cm size = somet 008 size

[ikwhy]

with the 19cm rjb blacks coming in... both dior and somet will have to wait...

all with almost identical fits but totally different denim...

[duck sauce]

red through the dior thread and apparently they stretch a lot more

[duck sauce]

r these supposed to fade quick in the beginning? i have some dark blue lines near the crotch already- hard to see but visible in outdoor light
