i used that proxy service for the s710xx over a week ago.....after shipping, it was about $345.

I have a pair of 24oz as well and my back pockets are perfect... that's a fuckup right there.

i'm seeing a lot, if not 99%, of jeans have that same back pocket fold. just becomes more pronounced with heavier denim and for whatever reason the picture quality of those 24oz's makes the fold look weird as shit...

compare:

[salaami]

i think it's probably a small errror someone didn't take the time to fix, or the 24oz. denim is mad hard to fold.

[Stacks]

yeah I agree with salaami, I think it is due to the weight of the denim but it's gotta be a manufacturing flaw - mine aren't like that and I've seen countless 21oz pairs without that fold.

Maybe the stitching isn't strong enough or something...

The 24oz. denim is hard as hell to fold, but is the pocket looking like that because of the angle of the pic, or is it 100% like that? paging dr. pwing.....

[pwing]

it looks like that, it's not the angle of the pic. to be honest, i didn't think anything of it until it was questioned on here - i thought it was because of the 24oz denim. it's thick as fuck.

[edmond]

48 oz of samurai power!!!

[Guest patchmb]

V nice ed. Are you going to soak a pair ?

[salaami]

yo ed, are your back pockets like that? i see you got one in a w34 and the other in a w35. are you planning to gain or lose weight?

[cheapmuthafukr]

dont be silly, hes not gonna ever wear them.

[edmond]

ssup boys! ill wear one next year! janruary first! size 35

[the_ming]

WOW got to play with a sample pair of black knights yesterday at BIG. Black on black on black on black...... nasty. Tried on a pair of the 24oz - the craziest denim I've ever felt. Getting them on was a workout. Gordon was wide-eyed telling me how tough it was to produce and sew denim that thick.

so, based on this post i wandered into BiG yesterday hoping to see the sample pair, and gordon told me that that pair was just for eval, and was already sent back to japan.

just an update to keep others from going in and bothering him like i did, we'll just have to wait for the 31st, i guess.

Do you find them to be sized similar to the 21 oz denim as you are sizing up again?

[sixsixtie]

A couple detail pics of my s0140xjs. Theres a few more in the leepro thread.

LHT Awesomeness

[Medine]

texture on the inside of those LHT's is crazy!

is that a way to tell LHT?

[Alex3000]

Those are sexy I need jins in my life soon. Fit pics?

[sixsixtie]

I think I posted one here before but I had a new one in the leepro thread so I'll just re-post it.

[sdsualum]

Would the fit of a Lot 10 0500xx sized down 1 be equivalent to the fit of a true to size 710?

I'm currently wearing the 0500xx and I like the fit of them and would like to order a pair of Black Knights with a similar fit, but I'm not too sure about the sizing of them.

[beatle]

looks like a nice relaxed fit....

This won't help too much........My recent total to the UK came in around 31000 yen including UK VAT/Import Duty and handling.

However this may help.....

With my Mac I found it easy to just screen grab certain japanese phrases as you can view their pages in english & japanese, therefore you ensure you know the correct things to use.

I also used their measurement diagram and changed the inside leg to direct them to shorten to the desired length & chain stitch.

I have pixelated my details but the order was quite simple to do:

[Potsnu]

Did anyone order Black Knights here? I could use some sizing advice before I pull the trigger. Basically I'm torn between staying True to Size or sizing down 1.

My waist is 30. A size 29 will shrink to tagged, but if it stretches 1" then it will be perfect. A size 30 would be ideal, if it doesn't stretch more than a 1". I guess my question is, how stretch prone are the 710s and is it even worth me dealing with the initial discomfort to stretch them out?

Should I just stay true to size from what I've been reading? I'm only worried about stretching since my S5000 stretched out too much and I didn't like the fit after.

Thanks.

[unknownpleasures]

might even need to size up one if they measure tag size before soaking!

[Potsnu]

Naw they're +1 from tagged pre-soak

Uhh... considering that these won't be releasing until the end of the month (at the earliest), I don't think even Gordon could tell you how to size these at this point. With the sizing variation on the 710 from lot to lot, you should probably wait until BiG receives stock and confirms the measurements before choosing your size; however, you could probably assume that shrinkage and stretching will be consistent with the 710BK's.

I went true to size with my knights to be safe id rather them be a tad loose than to tight I dont want 19oz jeggings.

Gordon assures me the measurements are accurate, but who really knows until they actually receive the jeans on hand. However, I'm pretty set on doing the pre-order as that is the only way to ensure I won't spend my money on something else in the mean time. Not quite nearly as bad as though who ordered months ago!

Thanks, I'm leaning towards doing the same.
