SOMET Denim

[soulsoi]

TN youre not the only one.

the fit looks great, but im in the middle of the 008s and the iron heart 301 slims

[tralexander]

just got 008's in the mail. they are $ICK!! post pics soon

[emixam]

^fit pics that's what we need !

[tralexander]

008 size 27 i am 5 6' 140 lbs

[stewiegriffin]

i thought they were 003....

[soulsoi]

dope.! fit looks really good for being 5'6

hopefully it looks like that on me being 5'4 and all :T

[tralexander]

thanks. ya sucks being short because jeans meant to be skinny or slim don't taper fast enough after the knee. I wish they looked slightly more slim but the denim is gorgeous

[soulsoi]

yeah i know what you mean.

i have a pair of pbj's and i got intense stacking going on

so it starts looking all baggy when it passes my shin.

ive been looking at the measurements between the two and im sure the somets will be a bit more slimmer

[DoogieHowser]

Can anyone tell me the measurement of around where the calf muscle would hit on the 008s?

[JSFU]

im really thinking of getting either 008 or 018s. same deal right, just different color? the rise is quite alarming though, do somets have something slim with a higher rise? 10" above my crotch, my waist measures 35. anything lower than 10" is gonna start showing my secret garden.

also are somets expected to stretch? how much to size down?

[duck sauce]

down 1, somet 003- a bit looser but the rise is 10.5 on sz 34

[stagename]

shop asst at somet said to expect a 0.5 inch max strech, some 2-3 cm of shrinkage after first wash, that kinda evens out. they recommended to take a pair that just fits right when buying. i'm 33 in edwin ed47 & nudie aj, a bit loose (after they streched) and got 31 in somet, a bit tight. hope that helps.

**edit: btw they run big on the waist since they're low. the waist was approx. the same as my nudies..

[duck sauce]

heh mine stretched 2 inches (worn couple weeks after first wash)

[tralexander]

i wear a 28 in apc ps and got a 27 008. i normally wear a 29 in not raw. tight at first but after a month with a belt, i never have had a jean that fits so well

[Kev07]

my somets did not stretch much at all, still tight as fuuuck

[the_ming]

mrs the_ming has seen some stretching but not very much, especially compared to my PBJs that go from tight after a wash to baggy as hell in a month.

this might have to do with her somets being sanforized, my sanforized uniqlo MIJ jeans have had comparable stretching as her somets.

so... yes they will stretch, but no, not very much unless you go to extreme measures like a waistband stretcher.

[duck sauce]

its the tight weave and possible the higher degree of twist in the yarns that makes it stretch less

[Akura]

Anyone know where to contact somet about jeans repair? I e-mailed them from their website but I did not receive any reply.

[duck sauce]

there are tailors in your town/city that can repair your jeans

raw fabric costs $3.75 a yard where i get it

premiumdenimoutlet.com

6think thats it

[dawei69]

I"m thinking of getting some 008s, how much does the denim stretch??

[stewiegriffin]

from this thread, 008s dont stretch as much as you think they would.

[IAmNietzche]

mine stretched kind of a lot

[stewiegriffin]

the amout of stretch = the amout of pressure.

were they too overly tight to begin with?

[emixam]

Can the Aoyama shop shorten the length ? If yes do they use chainstitch ?

the shop proposed me to shorten the lenght so they def can do it, no idea about chainstiching though.

no but i do tend to sag and my wide feminine hips probably exacerbated the stretching. oh well

[Caveat]

Has anyone seen this version in person? http://blueingreensoho.com/site/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=shop.flypage&product_id=4218&category_id=63&manufacturer_id=0&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=28

Is the lame' stitching a misnomer? How do they look compared to the 03s?
