It's also the angle of the phone. I hate doing pics like that it's not really accurate but my camera is not with me at the moment.

[ThinFinn]

cut is perfect imo...so far there's not a single thing i'd change.

[llvlaglne]

I msg'd LEE my entry photos on Sunday.... I didn't get a response back yet. Should I send him a follow up msg?

A quick post-soak fit pic of my 400R's. I'm really liking this fit - just loose enough in all the right places, but not overly loose anywhere. I'll take better pictures next time, as I was in a bit of a hurry. Promise!

Took a couple of quick pics on my 400T.. not the best quality(photos not jeans lol). They kinda fit like a straight to me rather than taper.

[aho]

^Looks perfect to me!

[Obbigood]

Really nice fit Vanquish Gold.

[Vanquish Gold]

Thanks guys! The softness of the fabric is still something that I will need to get used to lol

[Max Power]

Not liking the sound of that (softness), but still I can't wait to get them.

[bradl]

Did you get the one wash version?

[Max Power]

No, raw. I like to do everything myself.

[Maynard Friedman]

I think ThinFinn kindly gave your pair a nice hot wash and fast spin (with biological powder and fabric softener) followed by a tumble dry to save you the bother Max. It's very kind of him.

[Max Power]

As long as he sends them quick, I'm even fine with that.

[Maynard Friedman]

I think he may even have ironed them too.

[Somar]

I think he has even worn them

[bradl]

No, raw. I like to do everything myself.

No, Vanquish, as he was saying he had to get used to the softness.

[marti-mar]

Didn't ThinFinn say he went commando to the gym in Max Power's pair?

Edited November 24, 2013 by marti-mar

[whackedout]

I heard he actually sharted in MaxPower's pair...

[Broark]

Man, I'm really thinking about joining this competition after seeing a few of the pictures of the 400T!

[geL-]

Don't think!!! Just join. 

[Vanquish Gold]

No, Vanquish, as he was saying he had to get used to the softness.

Yep One Wash.. If I have a choice I would have gone for raw, hot soak then wear it till end of 2014. But that's just me... some people like the comfy feel whereas I prefer the crunchy nature of dry denim.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

and why did you buy the o/w version then? just curious

[ShAraLeEe]

Hey all, thank you so much for supporting the UES Contest.

I would like to tell you guys that Rivet & Hide is the UES dealer in UK. They provide free and very fast shipping worldwide and no tax within Europe so if you want to order a 400T ,you can contact Danny.

Jeans bought from R&H can also join the Contest too.

No prior experience with zimbabwe cotton? Hehe

[Broark]

I'm just having a hard time deciding which cut to go with, the 400T or the 400S.

If the 400T is anything like the 991 (like mentioned earlier) then I would definitely go with the 400T because I love the 991 cut.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Then definitely go with the T!

The 991 is a quite strongly tapered cut just like the 400T. Whereas the S is (as the S implys) a straight cut. You can find some measurements already in this thread to compare  

[Broark]

I think you're correct!

I'll end up going with the 400T.

Now I just need to sell this pair of Momotaros and I'll definitely order my UES.

[Somar]

Yeahhhh, My pair is in Amsterdam already. That is service!!

I'm guessing I will have them tomorrow or the day after.

 

I'm ready to shoot a lot of pics
