THIS OR THAT? (Use me for all your Should I Buy...? questions)

[sunkenshoes]

Surface 2 Air? Apparently their coated jean isn't too bad. It's a fairly slim cut from what I can tell.

Thanks! I'll try and search for those, since it's from an older season.

[fashiontard]

should i get w30 or w29 for apc ns? im wearing uniqlo s001 slim fit in w32.. i like the fit of the uniqlos.. but im getting differing opinions on the stretch of the ns

[n0torious]

If you're going to wash them or soak them reasonably often, 30 should do you fine. If you plan on making your jeans stink like ass, 29.

If I were to order them, I'd get the 33...but I don't own them, so I'll let others comment too.

[opethrapture]

^^

I ordered the 33:s since I looked and compared the measurments over at BIG. Also read on the samurai page that these would fit pretty much similar to the 5000 series exept for the taper from the knee down. Thanks for the help.

I want to buy some grey jeans, slim, but not like april 77, cheap monday, whatever. Number (N)ines and Dauphins are nice, but I was hoping for something a little cheaper? Anything Japanese that I can get for under $200? I know there's always apcs...

Probably a few more, but Skull 5010's come to mind and fit your criteria. Not sure about the denim, but always a big fan of the slim cut/fit on these.

I’m about to purchase my first pair of fitted raw denim but my second pair of raw.

I purchase a pair of The Year of Denim Basics but they are much bigger and baggier than what I normally wear. Thanks to the info on this site about how to shrink denim and starch denim. I soaked ‘em in hot water for about an hour, I made the mistake of tossing them in the dryer (died my dryer blue) but I took them out after about 40 min wore them still wet starch the hell outta them till they dried. They are much more acceptable now as they fit much better.

My dilemma now is which fitted classic/repo denim to purchase. I ‘m black and I have the larger ass and thighs to match. My waist is a size 38 but I couldn’t fit the size 38 Pumas Evisu and size 40 is hard to find was hard to find in raw.

After posting in SF I got some good info about BIG having larger sizes, I chkd out their site and gave them a call. They up dated me on what might fit me, so I measured my favorite fitted Denim and narrowed down my choices.

These are the denim I found that fit my body type.

Fullcount 1108

Oni Denim Blue

Paul Smith BIG Red Ear

PBJ XX-003

Skull

Takumi Classic Raw

Takumi Vintage Raw

I new at this and you guys are the expert so which one should I buy.

thanks

[AcrobaticTenement]

Skull thighs will probably be way narrow for you, so scratch those..

[lmaozedong]

So I posted this in the small questions thread but I think it belongs better here.

I'm looking for a pair a jeans with a cut similar to the one pictured http://www.superfuture.com/supertalk/showpost.php?p=979310&postcount=5544

Right now I'm considering the Flathead 4001BK/F310/3001 or the Skulls 5507xx 50-10xx. I'm open to suggestions though...

I want a Japanese brand because I just like having the idea of jeans from Japan for some reason..

My friend just got a pair of Oni Blues at BiG, and he's a pretty large guy. Size 40. I'll say for being unique and at a good price, I'll go with the Oni's.

Most these jeans, 'cept for the Skulls, are basically straight leg fits with tall rises.

[tab8715]

If a size 32 (a size 31 with 1" of streching to be exact) of 511s fits me perfectly what should I be buying that's a selvedge denim equivlent? I've heard APC Rescues are pretty good bet, anything else?

My waist size is about a 32, if I want my APCs to fit the same as my 511s do I should size down two from the actual waist size or three from the tag. Correct?

[xD3C0Yx]

Hey guys, umm i have a pair of nudie RRDS and i really love the cut and the fit, but the problem is i want a new pair of denim that is not bootcut. so far i only found apc ns that has the closet cut to rrds. is there anything else?

[maenterus]

prps new fit

or

denim demon Aahka

[jeepster]

what brands (aside from APC), make mid to high-rise, slim/skinny cut jeans, with a tapered hem probably between 8" and 8.5". inseam should be between 35"-37", since im a tall guy.

they don't necessarily need to be raw, but thats always fine. looking for black or grey.

low-rise is a bad look for me, and i want something that has some longevity.

can anyone assist me?

I'm in the same boat you are, and SD-103s fit me way better than 811s. Both will fade well, but 103s are a bit more stubborn, if that is an issue. I think they are relatively similar in price; you could always check the Bears rakuten site to confirm this.

[erbs]

Here one of my own: s0500xx or 811?

Samurai s710bk would be perfect.

[jeepster]

Samurai s710bk would be perfect.

hmmm

im looing at the pre-release info on BiG's site... hows the thigh on them? slim? i got chicken legs so i need slim through and through to get any sort of silhouette to my legs.

[erbs]

They are Samurai's slimmest cut and most people size down, so they should be slim enough. The new Flathead 4001bk would also be a good choice; I think its a bit slimmer than the Sam 710.

Thanks for the reply to everyone.

I went with the Skull 5000xx BIG graciously answered all my questions even as far to retake measurements of the Denim. I got the SuperFast next day service so I’m looking at Tuesday before 12.

[scoki]

sc 40105 or sc 40301

[prowler]

1. flathead 3001 sz 30 without to much pain in the waist-area.

(sz 31 stretched out to much...)

vs.

2. Samurai s0500xx sz 28...due higher waist will work out with some stretching of the waist when wet + some pain for a day or two + not planning to wash to often. (big plus on these is the texas denim and longer inseams)

looking for a slim straight fit (maybe alittle tapered)....cannot decide

[jeepster]

god dammit. i wish somet made the 018's in a higher rise... their measurements are exactly what im looking for except for the rise.

i'm not into the the risk of showing some butt when picking something up from the ground neither

they should make a higher-rise model...i think many people would get a pair then...
