[pomata 2,092,240]

they will probably shorten by another inch with the next wash though

[beautiful_FrEaK 1,676,018]

Mine just arrived this morning, currently soaking in the tub with the hottest water my hands can touch (which is pretty hot after years of working in food service). Had a lot of room for shrinkage after trying on raw, so these should be a nice fit.

[blooming 228]

Initial observations, the denim feels CHUNKY. Even as they sit drying on the rack after a 1.5 hour hot soak, they are holding their shape and are super rigid. They look to have shrunk a good amount, but my impatient self threw them in the water immediately and didn't get pre-soak measurements.

Been looking through old Boon magazines, mostly mid-late 90's, and came across this Denime 213 from 1996 - 

 

[Edit] l also found a pic of the XX model jeans from 1999 but it's too dark to get a decent pic.

 

Is that the same jacket I can see here?

@Double 0 Soul No idea, but I presume BiG had/has some wacky way of measuring jeans?

BiG has the gold standard for measurements

Was my initial plan to get these over the XX model...but we'll.

Waiting for the 66 model later this year

Wearing these Original Line XX (size 36) feels like wearing a low rise after the Lot.220
