Anybody has an experience with s710xx lot 13 size 30 stretch 2" past tag?

I'm wondering if size 30 could fit my true waist of 32"...I would like slimmest fit as possible...

[rtst]

^^^They will.

[CooLy_oNE]

anybody could provide me with worn size 30 s710xx lot 13?

[solenoob]

Will it be cheaper if i order from a proxy or BIG?

[edmond]

proxy........... get a cheap one or order from 2nd they ship directly to you if not go thru tenso

[ufi]

here's my s5000bk fit, i hemmed it to 32".. hope it looks good on me

[beautiful_FrEaK]

you have to be rather short if you still double cuff on a 32" inseam.

but they fit just right

[Biff15]

...how's the fit on this? been eying this for a little bit...

[g0mez33]

I put these up in the supermarket S510xx 24 0z left hand twill, shrinks to 27oz

check my sig for details

[chubby]

^ $425? are you shitting me?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

yeah strange...more than retail for a pair that easily can be bought elsewhere

[tankevin]

The 710xx from BiG come with hidden arcs right??

[beautiful_FrEaK]

yes they do

Would anyone be interested in trading a 34W pair of Samurais for my 32W pair (S0510WX, Lot 9, 19oz)? I bought them from Self Edge during the Levi's lawsuit a few years ago, even though I knew a 32 was going to be too small. I convinced myself that they would stretch enough, but after just 8 or 10 wears, I realized it wasn't going to happen. So I put them away in a drawer just in case some future version of me started running marathons and lost 20 lbs. But now I have a baby and a tenure deadline coming up, and the marathon-running version of me is looking farther and farther away.

I'm hoping to find someone in the opposition position - someone with a pair of 34W who wishes he'd sized down to a 32W. They don't have to be the same model - I just want a pair of Samurais that fit!

(I suppose I'd be willing to sell them, but I'd much, much rather trade. I probably wouldn't sell them for less than $250 - enough to cover most of a pair of Strongholds from Context.)

Measurements:

Waist - 16.5" across

Ineam - 36"

Front rise - 10.5"

Hem - 8.5"

1 year update on my s710's

pictures are a little dark but it's the best I could do indoors and still showing the contrast without the pictures being completely washed out.

[Airfred]

My 710's arrived yesterday. Sized up 1 or .5

Pre-Soak: Hottest tap water.

Post-Soak:

Didn't shrink as much as I wanted em too so I soaked again and machine dried.

Shrank like crazy and now the fit is perfect. They look real slim in these pics because I wore them damp.

[SNg]

That's a nice fit..hmm...maybe I should machine dry mine too...

[Airfred]

Yea man do it. Jus make sure theres no creases or wrinkles when you throw em in the dryer.

[Classics]

That's a great fit...

[narutofan]

Nice alfred! The last soak is by far the best fit.

Makes me regret selling my 710xx a few years back. Now that jawnz are up 50 percent, gotta stick to my <13 oz denim.

[shinobi2000]

airfred, awesome that you got them down that slim, but are they going to stretch back to the first soak pics?

[Scribblemyname]

wow you sized them up ? whats your true waist? anyway do you guys think if im able to fit a size 28 well with a true waist 28 and thigh measurement ~18" somehow i find Samurai have fairly big thigh measurements.

[blakey]

So whats the model up from S710 thats a little roomer in the thighs?

[LC_Miey]

0500 ....but they are more like slim straight.. you can size down though..

[BIGBERTHA]

Looking for advice. Interested in buying 19oz S0510xx that haven't touched water yet and already hemmed to 30.5 inseam. My question is, once soaked/washed how much would I lose on the inseam. Not really worried about the waist shrinkage, just the inseam.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

well...1,5" up tp 2" is possibe

[BIGBERTHA]

well...1,5" up tp 2" is possibe

yikes! jean shorts!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

yeah better buy a new one or a longer pair if you can find it

[Airfred]

airfred, awesome that you got them down that slim, but are they going to stretch back to the first soak pics?

They'll stretch out but not back to the first soak pics because you can't tell from the pics but the 1st soak and 2nd soak were a huge difference. Especially from the knee down which is where I was looking for the most shrinkage.

And thanks everyone for the +rep
