SUPERDENIM SMALL QUESTIONS THREAD (Use instead of making new threads)

[TexasFury]

Does Levi's ever offer their non-501s in heavier oz weights, like 14oz and up?

[h2oyelnats]

-Kept searching for a specific question like this but couldn't find it. I know the samurai thread says to stay TTS, but how is it after wearing it for a while? does it get super loose at the waist?

Levi's 511: 32x32

-Tried APC NCs before a few years back, but started to hate the skin tight wrap around my legs

-Should I go true to size for Samurai s0500x or size up 1 even? (looking for a slim, almost straight look/feel.

Thanks

measure the waist of your best fitting pair of jeans. that's the first step.

S0500XX most likely won't be skin tight around your legs when sized right

I think most modern levi's are 14 oz.

Thanks for the fast response! Also to measure the waist I should lay the jeans flat on the floor with buttons and fly closed all the way. Then I measure straight across and multiply that number by two to get a waist size? What are the units that I should be measuring in as well? Thanks

just follow this guide:

If you're going with imperial, then I suggest using inches as miles are probably too big for your purposes.

If you're more of a 21st century metric character, then cm is preferable as there will be too many confusing 0s after the decimal point if you use km.

could also use ångström...

Can anyone recommend me a tailor in NYC area or takes shipping to taper my denim?!

Self Edge NY

Anybody know the best way to fix a button fly? Two buttons are gone and now whenever I wear the jeans it looks like I didn't button my shit up.

I'd send them back from whence they came, but I don't think AW has recovered yet.

could someone quickly tell me which PBJ styles come in NON-SLUBBY denim? Looking into a pair but I've already got one pair of slubby jeans and that's enough for me haha

I'm looking for a pair of mid-range priced slim fitting jeans. I have previously owned APC New Standards, Naked & Famous Slim Guy and LVC 1947 501s. Out of all of them my favourite was the LVC 1947s but I would like to try something different and a bit slimmer! My budget is £150 GBP and the store must ship to the UK. I'm currently looking at Flat Head F310 on Self Edge but they are just out of budget! What are my other options?

[tigerstrom]

how do I measure my true size? when I measure my waist I get like 37 inches. The problem is that I wear 32-33 in most of my jeans. When I measure my unwashed 33-34 Lee 101s they are 34 inches (and a little to big in the waist). I hope you can help me! Sorry for my bad english :-)

Anyone know any brand that has a brand signature in painted style on back pocket (like evisu)? a nice clean style would be great.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Momotaro and their Going to Battle line

[bluedust]

Thanks beautiful_FrEaK, actually I like the paint on both pocket like evisu style. There might be very small group of people that like paint pocket.

Been wearing my Nudies for about a month now and they've stretched out like a mother. What do I do to get maximum shrinkage without making them white?

all pbj jeans are all famous for their slubby denim. however there's one i've had experience with that isnt as slubby which is their 24oz series.

Anyone have leg measurements of APC petit standards? Trying to figure out if a pair has been hemmed or not & can't find measurements online... thanks in advance

[JayFourEyes]

Does anyone know about a brand with selvedge jeans and backpockets with an inner seam like ROY's?

Saw a guy the other day wearing jeans looking like that but with different kind of patch.

[TauKappaEpsilon]

Are these two tight on me? They are 2 month old APC PS sized down 2.

Throw them in a dryer?

[bluedust]

This fit good, it will stretch out and fit you more perfect after a few wears.

hmm... not sure, where you saw them? might be a local brand. There are tons of denim brands and absolutely they will have something look similar although they not intend to copy.

Ever since the Roy Ducks sold out, I've been trying to find an alternative. I knew Round House sold Duck-pants, and while not Cone they're made in USA. I was stumbling around their site and noticed they sell in Japan. And like every single other company, they offer Japan cool shit they don't offer domestically. For example :

The hickory stripe are pretty rad too IMO.

I contacted Round-House directly via email, but I was curious if any one knew of a source for their limited edition Japanese offerings just in case they can't sell any of it domestically. It seems stupid to have to proxy a garment made in Shawnee,OK USA to Nebraska,USA from Japan... but they're pretty cool pants, and I feel like IF they were able to sell them domestically the cost would be considerably less given they aren't being shipped to Japan.

I probably should have just said, 'I want these pants, but I can't figure out how to get them without a damn proxy. Help!'

no offense, that fit looks painful.. my balls hurt just by looking @ it..

From someone who owned a pair of PS, my fit was that tight at the beginning too. Started wearing them whenever I could and they started loosening up. The discomfort goes away after about 3 weeks. 2 months in the fit was perfect.

[TauKappaEpsilon]

They really aren't uncomfortable at all. I'm just not sure if a slim tapered leg jean looks good on me since I'm so skinny.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

yeah right...slim and tapered jeans are for fat guys like me because we look hot in 'em
