a PBJ purchase is imminent for me. I am really interested in xx-007s. Blue In Green doesn't describe the fit of the xx-007s. I assume they are a slim fit, but how is the rise? I am going to make all the appropriate measurements and figure out a size from there, but I am just trying to make sure this cut will fit me well. I am wearing a size 33 in New Standards right now, but they are about a size too big. The rise is a too low and the thighs are super loose, not to mention the waist being a size or two too big.

also, what is the advantage of buying a a no wash pair versus a one wash pair? Is it just preference. I assume most people do a wash right away to get the shrinkage out anyway. If someone with experience with this could just give me their perspective, it might help.

Thanks a bunch guys!

apparently being -Z- is a way to protect your leaf...mine is still pretty mint :(

A couple of pics while I learn how to use my new camera, PBJ XX-007:

should tune down the contrast..donno if u sharpen ur image or wat. look sorta oversharpened too.

Doesn't look natural

Stupid question; I'm doing some leg work, trying to figure out how 009s might fit after shrinkage. If I take the raw measurements of the 007 and subtract the measurements of the one wash 007s, would I be able to use that with the 009s? Since it's the same denim? Same shrinking properties?

not so much the knee and leg opening, you might get 1/2 a inch of stretch on the thigh and the waist 1-2 inchs strech

I wanna get XX-011,010,013....What sz should I get?

I want the final stretched measurement to be (True waist sz 30 at low rise waist....27.5 at true waist, 21" thigh)

waist: 31

rise: 9.25-9.75

thigh: 11

hem: 7-7.5

I am thinking 11&13 should be sz 30 and 010 is sz 29?

Correct?

007 has very low rise. i dont have experience with apc, but most ppl go tts or down 1 from true waist for 007. personally, if your thigh is relatively slim i'd recommend you size down 1, cuz tts waist always stretches out to be 2 big in the end, given it already runs big when unstretched.

y not just email golden for the measurement?

edit: as far as the contrast comment about stukovx's pair I doubt he adjusted the picture. Thats just how the 007s look when photographed.

Took a few new pics to compare stukovx's high contrast fades to my not so...

Promise this will be last set this month, taken on my newly acquired nifty fifty lens:

Hey does anyone know if the One-Wash versions, especially the xx-011s, in particular, can shrink any further with either a wash or a hot soak??

My pair is a lil loose and i hope to shrink it without sending it back to BIG.

Could someone offer me some advice?

6 months with my X-011's & I decided that this awesome thread deserves an evolution picture.

I know I skipped 1 month but the picture was crappy so whatever.

More detailed pictures of the 6th month mark soon! :)

0 wash, 3 soaks, 1 green tea soak haha.

Looking really good. Don't know how I feel about the Yankee butt fadez though and I'm surprised how well your leaf is holding up. Mine is in shambles after 5ish months on my 005s. :o
