Yeah, I was afraid of crotch explosion thing, but the post-wash measurements along with Chicken's sizing recommendation got me saying what the heck.

you're not planning to wash them at all??? if you were afraid of crotch explosion, then why the hell would you downsize by 3?

you're gonna get a bad case of swamp nuts

Swamp nuts? Chicken actually went to BIG and tried on a pair of postwashed 660 sized 30. He said they felt loose and he's got a 31 waist so he went for a size 28 in the raw sufu. So yes I was afraid of swamp nuts but when I read his sizing experience, I decided to go down 3 like he did.. Anyways, like Twistedtrees said, we can always set up some kind of exchange plan for members who don't like the fit of their jeans so I'm not too worried.

I think sizing down 3 is a bit risky...you should not only look at the waist measurements (which again , don't mean as much since they are supposed to be worn low...) but also check the thigh and rise numbers...

[was ist los?]

Order number 555. I was really torn on sizing between 28 and 29, but in the end decided to size down two for the sufu experience.

On a related note, how much do you guys think this denim will stretch?

[mr fluffernutter]

i figured if cheep can size down 2, then i could size down 1 pretty safely. so that's what i did

but 3?? that's a lot... i hope they work out for you guys

Thanks - I guess my boys are gonna need some luck.

[lilldavid]

i can't do this, this sucks. i have too many pairs already

there is no such thing as too many pairs of jeans

[countchocula8]

You know what really sucks? Having to size UP so that your thighs can fit. You guys make me sick with talks of sizing down 3.

[beatle]

Rest assured that not everybody is sizing down...some of us go for a super hot shrinking experiment....

Tell me about it. I sized up one. Just be glad you don't have chicken legs.

Wonder if Chicken has chicken legs...

These are estimated pre-wash measurements. Jeans will arrive in this state:

Below are the measurements post washing/drying:

Now - I made a final decision and i am gonna get true waist, 30...we shall see..

Oh wow, I'm going to be wearing the same type of jeans like Diamonds for a full year!

Excited now!!!

[beatle]

Made up your mind , Cotton ? nice.....

[GoodHustle]

For anyone requesting a hem, don't forget to ask Gordon / BiG to send the left over denim with your jeans.

[cheep]

i went down one... on the size 28 pair i had i saw some premature crotch wear after 6 hours of skating last sunday, so i felt a bit more room was needed.

Thanks for the info Cheep. If I remember correctly, you're a size 30 waist, right?

[cheep]

yep, size 30. i dont have chicken legs like most here tho, so i think it would be safe for most people to size down 2. id say NS sizing is about equivalent.

[hawkeye]

Went to BIG yesterday and tried on the Doubleworks, goddamn they are nice, can't wait to get mine.

[>++fishb0neR]

#560, holla.

decided on a 34..if anything for a bit more thigh room than the 33 (true waist size) had to offer..

i figure the waist will just be larger than i need it, (like my pbjs), but a belt can fix that, innit..

also i do prefer a slightly roomier fit than a true "fitted" look, so I think i made the right call..

i will PWN you all in this contest:D (let the trash-talking begin)

Go and boil your bottoms, sons of a silly person!

I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty-headed animal food trough wiper!

Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!

Are you French?! i mean, you speak with a french accent..

[soulcraft]

Sized down 1 and got a size 34. Im super excited about this.

[Guest El Salvador]

Last day already. Time flies! Hope we will reach the 200

[chantheman]

# 561 finally decided on a 30W with a 32 post wash hem length

[datasupa]

umm...how did you specify postwash hem length

[wild style]

Easy.

You look at the charts and realize that the jeans will shrink 2.5" in length post soak. Therefore you have them hemmed 2.5" longer than you would normally. Pretty straightforward.

[JohnnyRed]

umm...how did you specify postwash hem length

I wrote in my notes what post-wash hem I'd like to go for. I said that I'd like a post-wash hem of 34, so please estimate what that means raw. Gordon's a smart guy, I'm sure he'll be able to figure it out.

[ChattyPuma]

I'm starting to think I'll be more interested and entertained by the fit than I will on the fade. Seems like there are a lot of different opinions which will make this a ton of fun.

I just hope I can breath when I button them.
