Way too soon for evo pics, but these are the fastest fading jeans I've had so far (besides nudies - shouldn't need to mention that). Don't mistake this observation as an insult though, the construction is first class and the denim is gorgeous. Really happy with em.

[enojy]

Please take a picture of how the patch came out as well, thank you!

[jjkchung]

so i'm not happy with the fit. my sammies are on the market

[chambo2008]

whats wrong with them chung? dont like the rise or what?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

did you try to give them a hot wash to shrink them more?

[jjkchung]

i made sure to soak them as hot as possible (literally boiling water) to get all the shrinkage out. they fit fine right after the soak, but i guess after they completely dried they seem to be a bit loose on me.

i know that people have gotten more shrinkage out by hot wash and hot dry, but my concern is that they're gunna just stretch back out? considering i prefer not to wash my jeans at all in their first 6 months, iunno if that's a viable option (correct me if i'm wrong)

i dont have a problem with the rise. definitely love the jeans though and plan to order a size down.

No more arcs:( pretty pissed about that.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

that info wasn't that new

@jjkchung: the Texas Cotton denim is known or shrinking everytime a little bit more with the first 4-5 washes. So there is definately more shrinkage in the. But I dunno how much they will stretch in the end.

Got some pics?

[Alex3000]

Black Knights are sexy number 35/101

[trident01]

[the_ming]

fit pics pre-wash

i am 5'6.5" 152lbs, and wear a 32 in PBJ, 32 in these and a 31 in uniqlo MIJ.

yes, they are a bit loose, but shrunk nicely and fit well now. once they are hemmed i will post fit pics again (that will be friday or saturday.)

[unfuccwittable]

cuff like whoa

[rome1]

*Yawn* anyways my 710's are going on about 7 months 2 washes... these things are turning out way better than I expected. They're still super dark at this point but the arcs are showing through nicely! I'll post up some pics after I hit the 8 or 9 month mark with a wash...
