Recommended Posts

does anyone have any suggestions for raw and/or selvedge denim that comes in larger waist sizes and isn't super wide in the leg/leg opening? i am currently wearing a pair of iron heart 634s and they're great except i had to get the tapered which was kind of a shame because i think it changed the fit a fair amount.

i've had some success with evisu heritage jeans as well. If anyone has any suggestion's that'd be dope. thanks.

Yo! You jacked tip's avatar…!

Should be in the small questions thread, but since I was a former livin' large man, I can tell you that there are brighter days for your search for larger size denims. Here are a few models that come in 40+:

45rpm Sorahiko Slim

Evisu 2000 No. 1 Specials

RRL Slimfits

Denime 66xx

Samurai 710

Sugarcane 47's

Oni Blues

Eternal 811

Fullcount 1108

Flathead 3005

etc. etc.

As you can see there's plenty out there. Check out the BiG web site too. They always carry large sizes.

^^^ Nah, they're smoking something down in Atlanta. I have a couple of 40's and 38's RRL. This was when the sizing was all over the place too. The 38 measured a 41 and the 40 was a 42. All sanforized. I got all these jeans down at the RRL store on Prince Street in NYC.

do I need to go to a RRL store or POLO ?

This a double post for me but it applies here as well.

I just order the last pair of Skull 5000xx in size 42 but if you take a look at blueingreensoho.com you are sure to find something that fits. Be sure to check there measurement area because this will help open a variety a denim to you ranging from size 38 to size 42. Before purchasing the Skulls 5000xx I was looking at these.

Paul Smith in size 38 but should fit you.

heads up on those iron hearts - they ALL run super small. I usually buy my jeans in size 36 or 38 and the size 38 ironhearts I have are SKIN-tight. They're the only jeans other than eternal 811 that I wish I'd gotten a size 40 (my eternals are a size 40)
