thanks morse, always appreciated.

Now begins the 2nd year struggle: I know they need another year to go grail but with all the other denim on deck it's going to be a bear convincing myself to wear them on the regular.

stacks out of rep . 2 years would be killer.

Gordon over at BiG got back to me about the ETA on the Black Knights:

We're working on getting an exact date but for now we're being told around

the end of October.

Regards,

Gordon

Gordon over at BiG got back to me about the ETA on the Black Knights:

Shit 2 months? Bet they had that planned all along to max out the pre-orders so they knew what sizes to produce with the limited fabric. I'd be pissed about the delay had I pre-ordered:mad:.

[arem]

Nah, I talked to Gordon right after they were announced and it didn't sound like they were expecting pre-sell the FSR or anything, he thought they would have plenty to sell in store. It's probably just delays at the factory where the jeans are actually sewn together.

fuuuuuckkkkkkkkk

what bums me out is that they have my money too. 300 bucks plus shipping locked up for 2 months. could've been earning interest.

oh well. this is the price we pay for the denim we adore. I wouldn't have it any other way. i loved the old 710 blks...but these are better and well worth the wait...i hope.

hahah, if it's any consolation the interest probably only would've been like a couple more cents...

Sweet good thing I waited. Now I can do something else with my money in the mean time.

[Hendodo]

anyone know what a 710xx sz 30 hem shrinks to after wash??

thanks all

[chantheman]

it would shrink to the tag measured 36 after wash

[Hendodo]

oops, i meant leg opening

[Alex3000]

Well whatever the pre soak hem measures subtract .5.

Also I was thinking wouldn't a Texas cotton Jin be amazing with hidden lee arcs.

[exhausted]

I noticed there were some vertical folds on the inside of both legs of my s5000vx for awhile now... I thought maybe a wash would get rid of them.

so I did a wash, I take it out of the washer, my comb creases are gone, but the folds are still there..

any thoughts? it kinda runs from midthigh down to the hem... about half an inch away from the inside leg seam.

Edit here are some pics, the fold appear inside the leg and outside the leg (4 folds)

I'm worried it's gonna give me some weird fades, I was looking inside the jeans and it seems those folds are "faded" on the inside...

Should I try to iron them out when they're dry?

[arcanum]

use the search function!

30 after soak should be fine, idk about the stretching though

[arcanum]

i did but it didnt answer my question pretty well..

[enojy]

those vertical creases are from you running them through the dryer. they're going to stick around for a while, but they don't fade weird or anything. they get less noticeable over time.

X-posted

Sams - post hot soak. before repairs.. gotta patch the crotch and keep the pocket bags from completely falling out. other than that, they have a ton of life left in them.

It's okay to iron your jeans if you want the folds gone. Don't put your jeans in the dryer.

[exhausted]

to be honest, I tried ironing several times after making that post, but the folds are still there

[islandboi8204]

stop worrying and posting about it.j ust wear them, they'll go away and won't mess up ur sick fades. too much paranoia goin on over denimz up in this thread.

[exhausted]
