Clean up the room, and maybe substitute those shoes imo, and the fit will be amazing. Actually they are looking amazing for only 1 months though, I would have guessed they were at 3-4 months.

[ryansuuu]

theyve been my everyday shoes for awhile now, gonna switch to something different after winter break probably

and yeah just dont have much time to do anything other than study lately, 3 midterms in a row this week =\

[llvlaglne]

wow fantastic man.....1 month? i agree with ryansuu, i would've guessed 3months of wear. In terms of kicks, if you're looking for something not to shabby that you can beat on i suggest you jump on a pair of air max 1s

[lysandar]

^^^Ditto on the progress in 1 month! I still haven't gotten the electric blue to come outta hiding

New Strike Gold flannel -- thanks Thomas at SENY for the sizing help!

Love the look of that shirt. What size are you wearing. From the specs of this shirt it sounds like the shirt has short sleeves with wide shoulders. At least when you compare it to an Iron Heart Flannel.

[BIGBERTHA]

I have tried strike gold flannel in large and find fit is similar to iron heart in small

Have a pair of SG2109s in a 33, cold soaked brand new - lookin to trade for some sg2105s. Willing to sell em' if anyone wants em'.

[emirarrr]

and ready for initial soak this weekend, due the rainy weather

^^

post your fit please..

[klimek135]

Got my SG2109 in the mail today! Kind of tight initially, will have to get some other opinions about the soak. Excited to start a new pair.

[BIGBERTHA]

Just finished soaking brand new pair of sz 33 2109s. Waist too loose

If anyone interested, let me know. They were hemmed by SE to 33" inseam.

It's ok if the rest of the fit is good, is it? Or is just the waist loose?

[BIGBERTHA]

Just waist is loose. The only thing that really shrunk was the deerskin patch. Dig the fit otherwise.

If the fit is good it seems like a bad idea to trade or sell them. The fit is the important thing, there's no rule stating that the waist on a pair of jeans should be tight.

If I wear 32 in Nudie AJ and 31 in APC NS. Should I size to W31 or W32 in 1109 or 2109? How much of a difference is there in the waist between the two? Have people found the shrinkage to be about or more than an 1"?

And wear a belt?

Get a 32 in all Strike Gold jeans.

The 21xx denim shrinks less than the 11xx denim.

And wear a belt?

Yup, most people wear a belt regardless of how big the waist is on their pants/jeans.

[itsbenhere]

does anyone have a natural strike gold belt? and if so, did you think it was worth it? I really like it but its kind of tough psyching myself up to drop close to 2 bills on a belt...

[llvlaglne]

i dont have a strike belt but i do have a kawatako belt. kawatako produces their belts. only difference is one is using a single prong and the other is dual prong. top notch quality if you ask me. super thick and burnishing is incredible

[itsbenhere]

looks like i have to go for it then....care to upload any evo pics?

[llvlaglne]

unfortunately i don't have a decent camera to take photos...... sorry man. jump on it while they still have them in stock

[klimek135]

what are people experience's with the sg2109 shrinking and stretching. worried that mine might be a little tight before the initial soak. I want a pretty slim fit so I think I'm going to warm soak and tough it out. Let me know what you guys think.

[kiya]

Warm soak for 30 minutes should be perfect on those, the 21xx series shrinks less than the 11xx series so you should be fine.
