If you only soak them lukewarm - you might....

yeah i was thinking that or a cold soak and possibly wear them when it is damp to strech. i kind of want a slimmer fit anyways. im 5'11 and 165 lbs.

is it too risky? a 29?

I'm about the same size as you, and I just got a 30. I think that was the correct size for me. I'll post pics at some point.

[Cameland]

the contrast was adjusted a bit for the sake of trying to get the black color correct. the pics with no contrast adjustments are the detailed pics where the black (actual) turn out more grey. It fades to white, not grey. so it's a bit deceiving. I adjusted in an attempt to get it back to the correct color.

These are fucking tough.

with no contrast to see how it's grey, not black like it actually is.

goddam poly! I can't rep, but those shits are looking better and better

[merzbot]

fuckin ell those are looking nice and ashy. finally starting to see the beauty of the BK's with the past two pairs posted.

puting my pair on hold until i can stitch the pockets and belt loops back on along with ripped thread in the seat.

thanks for the comments guys. The real question beckons, since the s5000bk's are almost a year old, what happened to everyone else's s5000? I was probably the last out of the orginal batch of people to buy them. Let's see some more s5000!!

[Chicken]

^ what's amazing is that you did this to your blacks while you were shredding the crap out of your contest jeans. and starting to put some wear on your prps.

[jubei]

obviously, he's outsourcing his wear

[mr genki]

just a quick sizing question... im looking into getting my first pair of sams from BiG (probably the S5000). im a 32" waist... should i go with a size 30" from BiG measuring service? (which is a pre wash measurement)

[edmond]

i think a 31 would fit you better.. and when you soak them.. pls put something on the waist so the waist wont shrink

[poly800rock]

ha, i wish i was the same size. that way i'd have a pair of nandos

[JohnnyRed]

Yeah I'm a 32 wasit and a 30 fit a little too tight. I got a 31 and I'm loving it.

[beatle]

Poly, love the blacks....gorgeous...

[dave023]

Finally got my S5000bk...

[poly800rock]

[Raskol]

Yeah I'm a 32 wasit and a 30 fit a little too tight. I got a 31 and I'm loving it.

i actually think a 30 would be better. keep in mind that these stretch rather easily. im a 32 waist too and i wish i would have gone for a 30. i imagine you'd be fine with a 31 as well, but the 30 will probably be better.

[horriblyjollyjinx]

they look great poly. did you taper them or not?

[poly800rock]

no, ended up just cuffing them. with pants i don't mind the hassle, but jeans are so much work it's usually not worth it. i'm commited to cuffing now.

[horriblyjollyjinx]

Yeah, you're right. I couldn't taper them because of sentimental reasons too. They may make the 710BK so the problem could be solved by just buying another pair of jeans, much easier

[poly800rock]

yeah, exactly. i have a hard time altering a fit of jeans because i have so many to choose from. if i turn the cuff back down, it drags a bit, but i'll just wear bigger shoes in that case.
