Do people measure their cuffs to fit exactly alike on both legs?

Well yea some people do.

I just do a finger check.

Then again, some people rock uneven cuffs.

Doesn't really matter. Whatever you like.

happened to me before,so i let it spin for a min. max and let them dry.you can also roll your pair in a towel-called sushi method-to speed it up.

Which jeans fit like APC new standards. (Waist, rise, thigh, knee hem)

I have a pair of broken in apc in size 31, that fit great, and I'd like to try some other denim. FYI I don't like low rear pockets.

Can someone link me to the Eternal contest thread that's supposed to take place later this year? I tried searching for it but nothing came up (note even the main Eternal jeans thread when I searched for just Eternal in the title).

[beautiful_FrEaK]

there isn't a thread yet

[who8mahrice]

Lol, that explains it...Thanks BF.

Does anyone have fade pictures of the Sugar Cane Black Garment Dyed Jeans? Also, are they a slim-straight-fitting jean or are the pictures misleading?

Will + for reply.

[Solix]

Definitely a slim straight. It's quite fitted in the thighs and has a hem that isn't too wide as a straight, but isn't anywhere close to being skinny.

[Hendodo]

looking into some red-d's.

db red-d jeans are listed (sz. 30) as a measured 11.7 on the thigh. My okinawas (sz. 31) measure 11.6 on the thigh and are a pretty great fit. Can I fit those Red -D's ?? ( i would think so, but the db's are considered slim and the rise differs so i dunno)

thanks

[chantheman]

im going to say no. from what i remember about d-reds they were slimmer in the leg overall for me compared to okinawas and if you are sizing down one in the r-red vs the okinawa i dont think thats going to work out

[Shambler]

In general, how much shrinkage is expected in the thighs and knee after several hot washes and machine dries? I'm guessing about 0.7-0.8", is that correct?

I'm interested because I want to know what my Sam s0500xx sz 35 will eventually shrink to. Thank you!

[chantheman]

sounds about right after several washes and dries

texas cotton shrinks a lot

[darthm4rk]

is there any way to stretch out the calves on a pair of jeans?

oh and also besides which leg twists whats the difference between RHT and LHT?

[chambo2008]

anyone know why when i try to reply in a pm the screen were i should write dissapears??

[Sigur Rós]

What's the rule of thumb for sizing from a low rise to a mid/high rise jeans? How much should I size down if I'm usually a 31,32 with low rise jeans? e.g SDA 103 > Sugarcane Hawaii

Thanks

[Sigur Rós]

Does the rise of jean affect the inseams. I usually hem my jeans to 32 for my low rise jeans, but would I hem them to 30 instead if I had high rise jeans?

[kinch]

How long does it take for new raw denim to "settle"? I just got new Flat heads that are very stiff (even after hotsoaking), and so I can't exactly tell if the fit is right. I imagine once the denim becomes softer it conforms to your body better.

[Hendodo]

^^ few weeks to a month.. my fh settled in about 3-4 weeks.

@chambo, that happens to me too. It only happens when i use dell laptops in the mathlab though. At home, with my macbook/dell desktop, this has never happened..

inseam is measured at the crotch seam, it doesn't directly correlate with the rise.

Need a recommendation on a good white denim. I tried on the white sorahikos last year and liked them a lot, slimmed down a good bit from the regular sorahiko if I remember correctly, but there must be a cheaper pair with a more modern fit?

I was about to suggest the Sorahikos but...

I think Nom de Guerre make/made a pair of white (or maybe ecru) jeans that looked really good.
