You don't look lik you could comfortably size down, so I concur with B_f. If you had expected a skinny fit , the 710 was the wrong choice (I should make that my signature maybe).

[beautiful_FrEaK]

It's totally fine with me to disagree with me

IMO, the top block fits as it should and yeah the lower part is where the (your) problem lays but I'm not sure if one size down will change this issue that much. So a taper by some experienced tailor would be an option or the S003JP

[Cold Summer]

I think those look great, they look slim but with room in the right places. A fit that hugs every bit of your hips and thighs is not the only way to wear jeans and look good.

[jockstick]

can anyone tell me if the 710 in a sz 32 will stretch to 12.3ish in the thigh? thanks!

[jockstick]

more specifically, the s710xx in the 19oz

Machine washes?? WASH YOUR MOUTH OUT AND GO WAIT OUTSIDE THE HEADMASTERS OFFICE!!

I think i'll stick with 'em. Like I say- sometimes i look at myself and they look great, sometimes i'm dubious. P'raps i just need to experiment with the length a little to change how they break on my shoes.

Had a look at the s003 and they seem to look very similar in fit to my Red Cloud R400's. I was after a looser look than that and ultimately these do the trick. I guess I can always taper the area between knee & cuff very slightly to get rid of the (perceived) bulge.

Will still keep my eyes open for a 32 to trade with tho' just in case.

Thanks for your input Gents.

I'd stick with thease and wear them..after some machine washes you will be thankfull

I think it's been awhile since the Motor Club denim has been mentioned, but does anyone here own any or have first-hand experience with it? And comments or feelings?

The first time I saw pictures, I really didn't like it at all. But, the more I've looked at it over the past couple of years, the more I dig it.

I know most are not keen on the boot cuts, but I'm happy to have a new pair of 4000vx 21oz ready for the heavy weight competition. Shipped from a Japanese store (2nd) to an American door in only 3 days. Most impressive.

neat

[rawsnoopy]

Anybody on here got the S003jp17-L (17 oz left hand twill denim in the S003jp cut)?

Im thinking about ordering a pair from 2nd on rakuten....

If anyone could give me any info on the fabric, fit, fades etc. that would be great (pics would be awesome)

P.S. for those of you who've ordered off rakuten before, does it usually go smoothly?

Thanks

I'd love to join the Samurai family now that my IHxB01 (33) are two years old and my Japan Blue x Momo 0100SP (31) are one year old.

I'd like a few simple questions answered if you may, please.

if I ordered the S5000VX21oz from BiG will they not have the sammy arcs + tab ?

if not where is my best bet for getting a pair with arcs + tab to be shipped in the U.S. ?

edit; are the S510XX21oz mutch different in terms of cut/fit ?

if I were a tagged size 31 in the S5000VX21oz, would I size the same for that kind of fit ?

answers and input are much appreciated my friends..

[louisbosco]

well i can answer some, your best bets for arcs are from rakuten, e2nd or email yuchi from pirates.

as for the fits between s5000 and 510, the 510 is much wider than the 5000. the 5000 is more of a slim straight fit and the 510 is like a straight fit.

[Vicarious]

Heard some information on the 15th anniversary model. Supposedly in a 3000 cut, 24 or 25 ounce, with one blue arcuate and one red. Intriguing. We'll see if I heard right.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

^well that's just the S3000VX24oz-SG that has notjing to do with the 15th anniversary since it was already announced and in production last year. AFAIK.

@TheNorthern: safest way would be indeed 2ND or Kaizoku-Pirates or DC4 in Germany to get arcs and tabs.

As louisbosco said, the fits are different. especially the seat and thighs are quite different. Check my signature for a comparison

my pair of 710

I don't see why those would look bad with 710xx

[newp]

Well, as 710 aren't so slim as european fashion jeans, they look well with kinda "heavier" boots, or sneakers. I haven't seen anyone wearing it with wingtips, so I am a bit afraid of looking awkward.

[louisbosco]

well you said you've decided to buy. have you got the jeans yet? a fit pic would be good.

i dont think there would be anything wrong cause i've seen people wear it with trickers and they look just fine. i guess it's how you pair your overall look.

[Quoise1203]

I agree, I think it will look fine. The leg opening is small enough that it should look fine with low profile shoes. It would probably look best hemmed to the proper length or with a small cuff rather than several inches of stacks or a three inch cuff.

[richiealexander]

will s710vx blue shadow be restock again?

Edited January 14, 2013 by richiealexander

[beautiful_FrEaK]

This was a collab so no restock but there might be another, similar collab in the future

N-not yet, copped it but there is a long way from Japan to my country. Thank you, you've given me hope =)

Oh, that's good. I was worried about leg opening, even thought about tapering it a little bit. At the moment they will be default size but I am really tall with inseam length about 92cm (36 inches) to the floor, so I guess it will be okay to cuff it a little. Thank you!

[louisbosco]

Try two small cuffs really thin ones. That should work.

My dear buddy beautiful_freak sent me his 710XX size 35 for size reference. I compared with my size 34, same Lot (and both bought 13 month ago).

left 34, right 35

Now I know that sizing up is possible, but would not look as intended. And excuse the flashing flesh.

(If you're interested in Fullcount, see that thread. I wear his 1108XX there).
