21's aren't enough for ya?

no

so this might sound like a dumb question but when I was on BiG I didn't see any models with arcs and tabs. I was wondering if only certain models came with them or what the deal was

lurk harder

quick question are samurais with arcs and tabs sized differently (as in the waist measurement) than the North american non arc/tab versions?

either way i may have a pair of 710s with arcs and tags tagged 32 measures 31.5'' for sale soon

like they still "fit" but i expected them to be sized up (going on BiG measurements) but endedup sizing down 1-2 instead thats all.

Are people still having sizing issues. What has worked for me and should work for everyone:

Grab a pair of jeans that fits you. Measure the waist and other critical points you are interested in. Pick a pair of jeans to buy. Call or email the person selling the jeans. have them measure the jeans the same way you did previously. The jeans if they are STF should measure 1 to 1.5 inches too big in the waist. This has yet to fail for me.

If you are buying a pair of jeans that should fit relaxed and are sizing down to get a skinny fit, then find another pair of jeans that is made for that fit. It really is simple.

Do not ever rely on the tagged size when not able to try on the jeans. I wear a 33 in Sammie 21 oz 510s and a 29 in warehouse 660s. But guess what, they both measure the same across the waist and both fit the way they are suppose to. (edit: also don't go off of website measurements because the measurement change from jean to jean and lot to lot and they aren't always updated on the site.)

Excuse me while I powder my nose.

^ i went on BiG measuremts and compared it on my other jeans as well so its not like i just went headfirst into all of this.

its my mistake/burden eitherway and im complaining or anything, i was just curious.

I am not trying to rip into you, but I have almost been burned on measurements just because a website didn't update their table. Also, sometimes size will vary slightly on tagged same, so I usually give the dudes a hassle to have them measure the jeans they are shipping me. I tell them what they should measure and they find me a pair that measures that. I mean I am blowing $300 on a pair of jeans it isn't too much to ask for them to measure them before they ship.

I have done this to BIG and they are more that helpful in this regards.

In the end if the jeans don't fit you the way you want it is probably best to sell them and take your losses, you don't want to have to suffer through fashion. Your jeans should fit the way you want them to.

thank you very much for posting this information. I was literally minutes from placing my paypal order through 2nd for a pair of 32 S710s expecting them to measure 33 raw. I will take the advice in this thread and ask 2nd to double check the raw measurement for me.

Which cut is slimmer the 500s or the 610s?

This is for the small questions thread, or go to the BIG site and look at the measurements, but I'll be a good samaritan and tell you it's the 610.

yeah true to size is the way to go for lot 11. they shrink to tagged size. lot 10 was fucked up and were tagged size when raw.

im pretty sure lot 10 and 12 have the same sizing issue

The Lot 10 were produced a couple of times and varied each time so it's hard

to say exactly how these Lot 11 and 12 compare, but I've not noticed much

difference from then to now so you may consider the same size as the other

pairs you currently own.

slow but good progress on my s0500. I got them last November, but they have been in rotation with my USAs and other more summery leg garments. Initial wash for shrinkage and one additional machine wash.

just dropped off my s5000vx at the tailor to have the red tab from my samurai lanyard sewn on. Should work out nicely. I gave the seamstress the thread BIG gave me so everything should match.
