Quick question reg. those shorts here:

https://fullcount.co/products/1004-1-denim-easy-shorts

It says the waist for M and L sized shorts is 68cm and 70cm respectively. That seems super small. What am I not getting?

Thanks.

The waistband is elastic, so I'm thinking the measurements are taken when the waist is completely unstretched. Still seem oddly small though. Bears has more reasonable measurements.

Treated myself to a pair of 1108XX today. Despite always having gone with the 1109XX, the last pair I had were just too tight in the thighs after the second wash (plus... eh... maybe lockdown wasn't too kind).

Do any of the UK posters want them? They're in decent condition. 30x34, washed twice, had a crotch repair done, never hemmed but always worn rolled up a few times. Yours for free (if you're happy to cover postage).

Jeans: FC1108, (3 years)

Shirt: Polo Ralph Lauren (poplin shirt)

Belt: Tanner Goods Classic Belt (2 years)

Boots: Timberland Yellow Boots 

FC1108 is certainly the most comfortable jeans pair available in premium Japanese Selvedge denim marketplace , in addition to sufficient vintage denim features, fading potential, beautiful stitching and sewing threads color used. Another small detail is impressive inseam stitching / needlecraft added by contrast of yellowish green color thread.....

I hadn't worn Fullcount jeans for a few months and put on the 1105 this morning.  I'm posting because I'm reminded how soft Fullcount's denim is.  In terms of comfort and feel against the skin, there's nothing in my experience that quite compares.  I love several other brands (e.g., Ooe, Warehouse), but FC really seems to have the magic when it comes to the softness of the fabric.

My Full Count 1108, at 395 days of wear. Washed numerous times past the 10 month mark or so.

I'm really pleased with how these have turned out. I wore them in the warm months for the past three years, and they're quite comfortable in hot weather and very soft. I like the more vintage-style fading I got on these, and the denim is just great. I'm a little tired of the fit, though, which is a bit slimmer than I prefer nowadays. It's not uncomfortable, just seems somewhat proportionally weird in some ways (such as the really narrow fit through the hips.)

@Cold Summer This confirms my opinion that FC standard fabric is the best indigo in the business, by a margin. So, so beautiful.

This is the first real vintage-style denim I've faded, and I really like how it looks. I think I'm going to prefer my Warehouse banner denim once it's faded, though, so stay tuned.

^ Didn't realize the inseams are shorter now.  My first FC pair was an 1108 in 36x36 (still have it but don't wear it), followed by the 1101 and 0105 in both 33x36 and 34x36.

Is Warehouse running the same fabric as they did in 2012? If so, it's no contest for me. My 1001's from then have nothing to offer my 0105's in terms of faded indigo beauty. It's the warmth of the red caste in FC that I just don't see in fabrics other than the occasional White Oak creation.

One of the aspects of Full Count denim that I particularly like and isn’t often mentioned, is the vertical falling. This is often remarked upon as a feature of other brands such as Flat Head & Eternal and left hand twills but seems to be overlooked with Full Count. The combination of this with their soft denim is an absolute winner in my book.
