No problem & thnx!

[fellini_esque]

I agree. I don't see where kcobain was trying to encourage sizing down. I'm mat 30 so I should purchase 30x34?

Hey guys sorry for all of the confusion, it's a case of things getting lost in translation I'm sure. I'll see if Inoue-san can post pictures of how he measures so we can be 100% but like I said, his advice is measure your waist and buy that size! You can risk it by downsizing but in my opinion that defeats the purpose of a 50's cut. A little loose never hurt nobody especially with this pair! If anything, buy your TTS and cuff proudly! I'm personally not stressing over the measurements and charts because the sizing advice is simple; measure your waist and buy that size, which will give you the intended fit by TCB.

Sorry if I'm being blunt, I know it's easy to get caught up in charts and measurements but it doesn't have to be this hard, I promise!

Great link hog!

I spoke with Inoue-san and he says measurements are BiG style aside from the rise. I also showed him BiG's how to measure link and he said it's the same method he uses. I then told him my waist measurement, 84cm, and he told me to order a size 33 which is consistant with the one wash measurement chart. Hopefully this helps guys, let me know if you have any questions!

ever since it was the big measuring way but without the belt band which is 1 inch for the front and back rise. i didnt know you guya were still figuring it out. i posted it a couple pages back

[Sugar Mountain]

I'm ready to go and will take a size 31, same as my Canes and Warehouse. 

 

When is it looking like we can we order?

[fellini_esque]

I know an artist interested in designing the patch. Has Inoue decided one yet. And if there's an interest in a patch design when should I upload it by?

[aho]

Fellini, feel free to message me!

Orders will need to be in by mid June, Ed and I are going to clarify shortly!

[fellini_esque]

I feel like I'm waiting an inordinate amount for this contest. Is it august yet?

[volvo240thebest]

Yeah, we should start tomorrow!

[Projectp]

I'm enjoying my current Trophy/Raleigh Denim rotation but can't wait to get this going either.

[volvo240thebest]

Just for the sake of keeping the thread alive while we wait for the contest here's a TCB 60's fit. 7 months wear circa, 5 washes. The more I wash them the more beautiful they become. I'll wash often the 50's too. Not afraid of daddy's fades anymore!

[volvo240thebest]

Ahah class! Myself, the Volvo and my little pet Agata are featured on TCB blog!

Erk, it was pushed back to august first.

And from seeing some participants joining via Instagram I reckon your friend probably can tag along for the ride.
