SD-103 X 21 oz. = New D1293 = Awesome!

[Superstar]

Ande Whall size 30 (Grifters) equals to 80 cm or 31,5 inches and thats true to size.....

i would like the waist to be 78 cm instead of 80 from start, and then maybe stretch out to 80 cm later...

[Pauken4]

The 31's measure 31"raw.

My guess is the with a warm soak they'd shrink to 30.5" or so, and stretch back a bit.

I'm not sure that you want these skin tight, despite not being sitff, they are thick.

[Superstar]

would like them to be nice and snug, but not TIGHT... if i do a soak i'll just wear them damp to avoid max waist shrink if they are tight enough raw...

[Pauken4]

That would work. The 21oz denim doesn't shrink easily. I had to try pretty hard to get mine to shrink, 2 hours of hot water, replaced when it cooled.

I've only worn mine around for a day and so far there has only been a little stretch.

Wow those pics bring back memories . . I am cursed with these, the D-1177's that is, got a pair of 32's (when I was fat) which we're huge, then a 30 then a 29 - all too big Sold the 30's to a forum member last year, the 29's in one wash state will be listed at marketplace v.soon. If anyone spots the D1293 in the smallest size, a 27 please lemme know, I still hope to one day flirt with the idea of 21oz denim! Oh and big up Pauken for not being a sheep and picking up an unknown model. I enjoy these discovery threads so much more than the bandwagon ones, the former adds buyer safety, the latter the connoiseur's excitement.

[Pauken4]

S-

The D1293's are sized very close to tag size. None of the sizing down that as with the D1177's.

C Point still has them in 29. The 28's are sold out.

Beautiful photos, Thanks!

sounds like you could use a 30 in 103s, and maybe a 31 in D1293s according to p4's measurements.

nice pics p4!

EDIT: i mean synthi!

[Pauken4]

I wouldn' t count on the shrinage that I got. I had to try really hard to get them to shrink an inch in the waist.

I 'd say stick with your tag size.

[synthi]

^ Ah yes I've taken heed of your advice which is ace for me and others but actually my true waist now is a spot on 28, I'll be a 27 after shifting the xmas pound or so I put on so the 27 should do nicely. Might just have to drop 2000dB a PM

Yeah those pics came out really well, a fluke I think as it was only a Sony DSC v1. I did PS them tho. Your info + my photos make a nice lil contribution to the board eh!

[Ashez]

I want a pair of those now =( damnit >_<

[J20]

Sup_

Damn those are nice.

Might have to consider.

Peace.

I really,really like this jeans. How did you do to get them without a middleman from C-point?

[Superstar]

If you're a 30, go with a 30 for a regular fit. 103s are slim so unless you want a super tight fit, i wouldn't suggest sizing down. to size up to a 31 or 32 as horrible suggested, i wouldn't do it. Wouldn't make much sense as a 32 would measure ~34 raw. My 30's went exactly to 30 and stretched to 30.5 with a bunch of wear, nothing more than that though.

thanks poly... gonna go for the 30 then...

[Superstar]

if they, as you say measure 30 in the waist pre-shrunk, and then with stretch go to 30,5... then its a 30 for me...

and yes, its the 103's...

[pkeigan]

I bought a pair of these and got them yesterday, they are awesome I love the fit and cant wait to see the fading on them

[khaltire]

based on the measurements listed on his website, it says a size 28 has a 30.5 inch waist, so if i like wearing a 30 in nudie slim jims (my only raw denim purchase so far) would these fit me how i like (i won't be soaking prior to wearing)

[dry the rain]

you really want to soak, man. they're stf so once they get wet they're gonna shrink. it'd be a real hassle to try to keep them dry for the rest of their (probably long) life.

how much indigo will i lose through soaking? and, since they're stf, and you suggest soaking, should i just get my true tagged size? (in this case, 30) ? (thanks for the help in advance btw)

[Dick Danger]

you don't have to worry about indigo, ever-M&Ms are much more important

[Tooj]

Indigo loss will be very minimal. Go with your true waist size.
