Does anyone know what kind of arc the Black Knights will have (black stiching, inside the pocket) if any at all? Thanks.

Awesome. Denim porn. You don't happen to plan to get rid of them when they'll be "really trashed"? If -against all odds- so, I asked first!

Black stitching I believe (stealth arcs)

Correcta-mundo Black stitching just like the s500bk and 710xx, Sixsixtie those are fantastic. I say go and get some jins hombre you never see those. Also I say that because I may buy a pair and wait to wear my black knights.

no matter what sam´s u get - size 26 and hemmed 6 inches. 710´s the slimmest fit

alright. so i can only get the 0500 as they have it in 26, the waist on that is 2cm too small for me on the japanese size charts post wash. (recommand I go super tight on the waist and break them in? Will they stretch out alright or should i go 27 or other model? :confused::confused::confused:

thanks for the help

Anyone know how the s0140x's size compared to the 5000vxs?

Looking at the numbers it looks like I should size down for a simlar fit. But that feels dicey.

FWIW I went true to size on the 5000vxs. I also own dukes in 33 that fit well and I sized up on the RJB 19cms and those are slightly too big in the block.

My brand new Samurai s510xx 24oz just arrived. They seem like they'll fit great.

They are crazy. Words cannot describe these "things". It doesn't seem like denim at all.

Photographs will come when I'm not working. I'll have my little brother start the wash on them so I can get fit pictures. Lets hope these babies fit!

I'll update this post soon.

yeah i grabbed a pair of them too... someone else on the forum said gordon believed 5 soaks were necessary to get all the shrinkage out... I've only done 2 though... other 3 (and post-wash S510XX AI-N pics) will have to wait until I get back from Hawaii this weekend.

I am looking forward to the dead of winter.

Well if I remember right the 0140xj is a 510 cut so its going to be a relaxed cut. I was actually looking at these myself.

i know that the general consensus for s0500s is go TTS for regular fit, and size down 1 for slim-ish fit.

but i've heard that some people size down 2.

anyone who's sized down 2 in their s0500s care to share some insight?

Well it depends on how your built. some people can size down 2 because they have chicken thighs, so it depends on your choice. I would say stick with sizing down one maybe you can never go wrong with true to size,

i sized down two from a 30 to 28, just washed them and they went to 27 but wearing them again and they are back at 29

hey chambo

what are your thigh measurements?

i sized down two as well, from a sz29 to a sz27. thigh measures to a 10.75~11 and it is one of my best fits. Chammy has my size 28s and we have identical fits almost. almost. I dont have large thighs or smalls thighs. I also ride bikes.
