Red Cloud & Co. jeans

[LameBrain]

The initial soak was done with the warmest water out of the tap. I then did another one a few days later, this time adding boiling water from the kettle. It definitely shrank a bit more and now they fit perfect.

hi, just answer your question about Mr. taobao. there are a lot of shops in taobao, some shops have positive credibility, some others have not. It is really depending on who run and operate. but RED CLOUD has their offical Taobao shop specifically for online retailing in MAINLAND China, which has been recognised by red cloud. so you can believe it. But if you want to buy something else in taobao, I suggest you to check if there is a offical online store which has been recognised by the brand

Hey, can you link Red Cloud's Official Taobao shop? I'm having trouble navigating though Taobao (language barrier).

The 425H is only a bit more tapered but I prefer the fabric of the 400H.

Eg.

r400H

Waist 84cm

Thigh 59cm

Leg opening 20cm

r435H

Waist 84cm

Thigh 61cm

Leg opening 20cm

I have proxy-ed a pair of 425 a while ago, they are stuck at Italian customs at the minute.. oh boy the wait is killing me...the parcel left China 7 days ago, and after three days it was already in Italy. I wonder how long will it take to receive it..

[volvo240thebest]

jest received the above mentioned 425, they're fantastic! very hairy denim, and stiff like a cardboard! here's a close up of the denim

I have a question for you all, the jeans are a little tighter than what I expected, seen the measurements I found online. they're perfect in the thighs and waist as per now, with no soaking. I fear they could get too tight after a soak. what should I do? A 10 min cold water soak? no soak at all?

[Capsicum Fried Meat]

Don't worry dude, if you are ok with this jeans pre-soak, just soak them regularly. They'll stretch to the original waist and thigh after couple wears.

[volvo240thebest]

that's good to know! Fit pics soon!

[volvo240thebest]

ok here's a quick fit pic, right out of the box, no soak yet. kinda like the megacuff as well!

[mat_wue]

I hope they work out for you and do not end up too tight in the top block, fit looks rather snug already.

On a different note, the new(?) Red Cloud LOT.1961 certainly look absolutely gorgeous! Beautiful thread color and great looking buttons.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Yeah saw those too. And the price is more than nice.

Used google trabslate but what they say about the shrinkage was confusing. So from what I've understood it is unsanforized but will shrink less so you should take a size smaller than usual. Is that right?

[Capsicum Fried Meat]

Correct b_F. Pre shrunk fabric

[volvo240thebest]

I hope they work out for you and do not end up too tight in the top block, fit looks rather snug already

Jeez I hope not! Cold soaking them at the moment, I'll know more in a short while

[volvo240thebest]

They came up tight! Feck! However i'll put them on for a few days and see if they stretch back.

No photos now!

[volvo240thebest]

Ok that's the fit after 5 hours of wear, some walking and some driving.

They're still a little tight but I am confident that they will be fine after a few days of wear!

[TuckshopSS]

But it still looks good and understandable.

Other than the store in Tianjin and the online one on taobao; does anyone know of any other bricks and mortar stockists?

Hi all

here's a quick update on my 425's. I've been wearing them for about a week. they did strech back to the former measures, thank God! Look forward to see how will these fade, there's already some slight fading over the hidden rivets, revealing a lovely electric blue color, these are going to be nice!
