^bahahahahaha. damn.

anyway, id see if gordon has some extra denim lying around from hemming all the samurais he does and sew that shit

[seafinch 909,477]

the first pair i bought fit like yours seafinch, but they were tight on the waist. i wish now i had just stretched them out.. would have saved a lot of money on my part.

Yeah dude.

These fit perfect.

I just wore them out for the first time and the waist is already pretty comfortable.

I'm so stoked on them I mightget the black ones.

Looks like Caspers pair has the same thing going on as mine do. Intense crease and rubbage under crotch/butt area. I want to do a long-term quality reinforcement/repair job. Its already letting in light.

Suggestions?

I sized 2 from true waist. My problem with the 0500 is that they seem to continue to shrink even after second wash. I would recommend to size 1 from true waist.

[plongin 11,033]

so you've washed more than twice already?

and just to get it straight, you sized DOWN 2?

[29mark25 127,022]

My 710s were bought slightly second-hand (only a few wears). When I got them in the post they were still pretty rigid - although had been hot soaked - but I soaked them cold in the bath for 5 minutes just so they'd dry stiff and then shape more to me than the previous owner. After a couple of weeks they've really softened and the stacks I had have now become pretty... unimpressive - non-existent, particularly above mid-shin.

I assume this isn't normaI as I remember 78 having posted the pics of his after 8 weeks or so of continuous wear and they'd stacked all the way up the thigh ... even when he showed them sat on the floor unworn! Other posters have also shown impressive stacks despite weeks/months of wear.

Think I need to starch or give them a longer cold soak? Or even try something else? It's all about the stack for me so I'd appreciate any advice to bring these back to life.

Looks good seafinch, it's always nice to see size 34 dudes on here.

[Madmax 64]

I sized down 2 inches from true waist. My waist measures 36 and i got size 34, thats how i buy nearly all my jeans. I usually wash after a month of use or sometimes earlier or later depending on how dirty they are.

Sorry if I'm slow to figure this out, but is this the patch that a sufuer designed?

Thanks.

I'm with you.

I'm always stoked to see good fits in a 34.

No...that would be the Warehouse patch for the sufu contest.

i saw those too, doubt theyre 710wx though, that leg opening looks too wide to me

[monook 166]

seafinch, you stretched them out 1" wider than they were presoak?

nice.

how exactly did you go about doing this..

my perfect size's thighs/knee is looser than i prefer, but now im thinking of sizing down

and just stretchin the waist

[HEWSINATOR 355]

I am in the process of trying to stretch out my Jins right now. I have wet them, rammed a coat hanger into the waist, and am waiting to see what effect this will have.

[monook 166]

let us know

[seafinch 909,477]

i'm sure it'll sound kind of lame, but i bought this plastic waist stretcher deal off ebay and it works great.

After they've been soaked i just put it in the waist and crank it out to where i want them then let them dry and they're usually perfect.

[whatjones911 341]

Wow no pain at all? I sized down 1 for my 710 and i was in pain for 3 days.

[MindxMatters 5,725]

What lot were yours from? ^^^^^

I was thinking of doing the same. How much did you score one for?

[Casper 19,550]

Quick Jin update. Less than a month of real wear and already alotta blue showing through. Anyone elses Jins starting to fade this fast too?

[n0torious 3,480]

My USAs are already starting to soften up at about a week and a half. I think those Jins might be my next purchase.

[meta 43,434]

On my left thigh right at the end of my pocket, a rogue knot because undone and I had to sear it off, exposing only white threads

I am worried it's going to become a hole due to the friction that occurs there, do you guys have any advice? I don't really want to patch it, because it's so small.

Just leave it alone...if it becomes a hole, you can patch it then.

It was hard to get the last button done, but that was mostly just cause it's so damn hard to button them out of a soak. Once i wore them for maybe 6 hours they were perfect.

Yesterday there was some pain in the backs of my knees - but that wasn't cause they're too tight, just really stiff.

Around $15.

It was worth it - i've used it a few times.

indeed. i've worn mine on and off for about 4 months and everything above the knee is so blue, while below the knee the denim still looks brand new.

That did not go well. I stretched them by hand and rammed a hanger in them, and they seem smaller now.
