thanks!

I got them from and-japan. free shipping

and yes, I'm a 35. not matter if I lose some more weight. my bones won't get smaller. (ok maybe I could become a true 34 but I don't think that would be too healthy.)

they are quite long as you can see (I'm about 6') and they have a long rise. so if you sag them a little, tehy are even longer.

Indeed. Looks like a pefect fit postsoak. Buit also pre looks very good. No crazy hipflare, enough length for cuffs and a decent leg opening. Perfect. Can you compare the denim to the 1653?

[cmo]

In my experience the 1108 stretches quite a lot. I have the w35 which became unwearable after a few months due to stretch. Have just got them back from Denim Doc having the waist taken in by 2 inches. A great job and now a much better fit.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

thx Flo. will compare tomorrow when they are dry. better comparison when both denims have touched water.

yes the reagular fullcount denim is very stretchy from what I've seen/read/heard. we will see if the xx (15,5) denim behaves the same or if they will stretch less. I will wear a belt anyways.

[akka225]

maybe just for me (i machine wash), but those look tight pre-soak!

[Maynard Friedman]

b_f, can you repost in the "How many pairs of jeans do you own" thread?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

thx for your input akka225. I'm positive that it will work out this way. but maybe I was wrong.

@maynard: didn't change that much but I can update

[Flash]

They are going to be slim but I'm sure they will work out great , I'm thinking your horween eras would be a great combo

The 1108's have a near perfect leg opening to pair with boots , shoes , or trainers. ( sneakers )

Gd to see a full count thread here!

I picked my 1108 a month ago, plan to wear them soon. My usual size, w29.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I soaked my pair yesterday. Having no access to a bathtub anymore I had to be creative

Let them dry over night

and finally some fit pics. Still wet even after 24 hours

[Flash]

Perfect fit mate and after a little stretch they will be even better , could you take some close pics of the denim I'm thinking about picking up a pair

Sent you a pm

[beautiful_FrEaK]

will take some pics for you..but my cam seems to be fucked so dunno how good they will be.

the denim is quite soft for 15,5oz. must be the zimbabwe cotton and maybe less starch (although the water turned green during the soak)

Thanks mate , realy interested in the 15.5oz denim

[BrownMetallic]

[beautiful_FrEaK]

thx you two

I tried to take some pics but they all came out bad...lighting is not good enough and my cam is really fucked I fear. Maybe tomorrow in the day light I take some better pics with my phone.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

So I took some pics at work but only with my phone. I hope they are good enough for you flash

[Flash]

Sure are mate , the denim looks realy nice quite similar to the 13.75oz denim but it does look heavier

[ranonranonarat]

great fit tilmann, i think obbigood has a pair and they do stretch out a hell lot. he cant wear his anymore cos they ended so huge.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

thx Ranon!

yeah they do stretch. must be the soft zimbabwe cotton?! I thought James started to wear them again after he couldn't sell his pair.

some button love

[demonator]

measurement pls bf

[beautiful_FrEaK]

the "please" made me do it. sometimes being friendly helps, Ed

fc 1108xx size 34, one week of wear

waist: 90

front rise: 29,5

back rise: 39,5

thigh: 31,5

knee: 23,5

leg opening: 21,5

inseam:89

The denim has a nice and soft touch and stretches a fair bit. I guess there is still a lot of shrinkage left in my pair

[demonator]

oh shucks the waist is that big??? i might go with a 33. i need an 86 waist.

PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS

[beautiful_FrEaK]

yeah waist runs big and stretches. although I wear a belt

[STropio]

I have a new pair of one-wash 1101's in sz. 30, unworn that I'd love to trade for a pair of sz. 29's. Not sure if anyone out there is looking to make a move like that. I might try to hot wash and dry them beyond belief to attain maximum shrinkage if I can't trade them for a smaller size. Anyone with any experience doing that?

Had 1108's in the past and they were thigh crushers, no squats allowed.

[OkayamaDenim]

That is interesting, because we have had people tell us that the 1109's are a little narrow in the thigh, but a first to hear that about the 1108s as well.

Good info regardless.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

for us bigger european or american dudes, the thighs can be a problem on the 1108 cut.

fit update with a cuff. adjusted the color a bit. and damn..are the back pockets far apart
