Samurai Jeans

[chantheman]

what we measure where we want the jeans to sit on the waist

[halberdklown]

ay ya yi its fairly obvious, its just as it implies: measure your waist in the location where your jeans will sit: as in, if your going to wear them on your hips or whatever, measure that. 2 inches below the naval is just the standard. you measure that by using a measuring tape and wraping it around you and taking the number you get....like a regular ruler. or i fyour stilll confused from that just get a regular ruler, yes like the ones you use at school, get your favorite pair of jeans, and then make the wasitline on those jeans completely straight, having the front side and back side align. then measure that, multiply by 2, and there you go: your waist size (given that thats the size you want)

^ yea just try to get true to size to what your actual waist is. i wouldnt compare anything to APC's because those things stretch so much that it doesnt end up being a good thing to compare to unless its completely stretched out and you like it that way. but anyways, i suggest true to size in a lot 10, or size down one in a lot 11 for 710s. the lot you get depends on where you get it from. where ever you choose to order from, ask em first and they should tell you!

i was confused earlier because i'm really, really skinny (5'9", 120 lb). but if i wear size 26 NS, sized down 3, then that means my jeans are actually going to stretch out to be 31, cuz size 26 NS is actually 28", then sized down 3 will be 31".

so that means i should be buying size 31 S710, but when i go on the How Do Jeans Fit Description and Pictures thread, there are people who are shorter and heavier than me wearing size 28. so that's kinda confusing.

[magneticbeats]

Everyone is sized differently, just because someone weighs more than you it doesn't mean their waist is bigger everyone is shaped differently despite weight and height. Also people here to go over the top with the sizing down.

[selaviso]

sizing down is so 2000 and late haha.

[halberdklown]

ok wonderwall, get a ruler. i know you have one, if not go buy one..got it? good. now. are your NS just the way you like them on your waist? is it too big? too tight? just right? if it is just right, straighten the waist up on the floor, measure it with the ruler, then multiply that number by two, and boom thats your waist. add or subtract an inch accordingly if it is too big or too small and there you go, your 710 size!

[PandaDenim]

If it that's confusing you shouldn't own denim.

Case closed.

agreed. i feel the same way as you when i see people asking for help with sizing APCs, but that's only because i have experience with them as i own two pairs. experience is king.

after i break in the sams, i'm looking to get a pair of PBJ and when i do, i'll know who to contact.

[selaviso]

or hes taking it way too fucking serious haha... i dont know what you guys are talking about but im assuming dude doesnt know what size to get so hes being a n idiot about his size. correct me if im wrong.

Haha.

I think I have an inkling as to who you are referring to.

[chambo2008]

sweet just copped some s5000bk from supermarket ... come on post man!!!!!!!

[Planet Mental]

I think I might sell my 5000s and get some 710s. After about a week or so of wear they don´t fit right anymore, i think it may be due to the fact that my legs are toothpicks.

Nice to see another pair of sammies in toronto

Fit pics on the the USA model.

I heard big sells 710s with arcs because the arcs are black and not very visible. Is this still true for their current lot? When I click on the close up picture on the site I don't see anything on the pockt.

[halberdklown]

why dont you email em

[paxmadam]

anyone else pre-order the 24oz'ers?

god, i'm hoping true-to-size works out... the 21oz s510xx sizing issues on BiG make me paranoid..

[warhorseworkshop]

fredo

these are my 710s from BiG. no tabs. they do have the black arcs. theyre only 8 months or so old, so some of the 710s at BiG might still be the same lot. you should call. johnny is super helpful.http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/tt247/warhorseworkshop/IMG_0332.jpg
