CTB do you allways get the leg hemmed

[CrashTestBrummie]

^ I never get the leg hemmed, the leg on those is 34.6 after soaking and that's pretty much ideal for me.

Those look nice, especially without the painted gulls. How do you remove them or doesn't they have them in the first place?

[CrashTestBrummie]

If you buy from Japan, you can choose what goes on the back pockets in terms of gulls/daicock/kanji/nothing at all. I believe that BiG only sell the unpainted jeans at the moment.

I went for black gulls because I wanted to see what they'd look like when the jeans were a bit more faded, plus I got Lot 2001 with white gulls and wanted something a bit more subtle.

[chambo2008]

does anyone work for evisu here?

[stabs]

Hey CTB i dont know if its been asked before but how many sizes did you go up?

[Cali]

Anybody have post-soak measurements for a size 33? Specifically the thigh - Dave losing an inch and a half in the thigh is scaring me away from these.

sorry to spoil the party no.2 's here

Oh, thats niiiice. Where from japan (proxyyyy...)? I've seen in rakuten shops but there is no such options, at least I couldn't find?

Those black gulls are nice and subtle. So would be really dark blue...navy.

It's all in the main Evisu thread - I had a bit of a nightmare. My actual waist's around 33, so I got 34 with the intention of stretching them. When they came though the actual waist was around 32.5 pre-soak, so I soaked them with a grill pan wedged in the waist to minimise shrinkage then wore them damp and now the waist's 33.

So in effect, I sized down slightly by mistake...

I got a mate to get them for me when he was over there on business. If you order from the Japanese Evisu website you can specify what colour you want. He got a Japanese colleague to place my order for me. And yeah, I'm loving the black gulls

[edmond]

for no.1 's i suggest sizing up 2 or even 3 i sized up 3 on mine still tight pre soak actual is around 33.5 pre soak

[coleslawyum]

Looks like the smaller sizes have more discrepancies from the tagged size. My 40 only shrank down to a 37~38 ish. I usually wear a size 36. So probably 2 up for a regular fit and 3 up for loose fit.

Ah, thanks! My google only gave me evisu.com.

Now I've been reading DD+1 all over again and trying to decide my size between 32 and 33... (I'm 30 in everything else but Skulls I'm 31, though I can fit in 30 aswell) For that nice relaxed fit like Red!

CTB - Grill pan! I hope the other half didn't catch you doing that.

I got a W33, #2000 No.1 on its way. If anyone care, I will post measurement & fits etc.

All of the above please - very well might be my next purchase.

Oh, comment was passed on the unorthodox pan usage, have no fear:

I actually kept the pan in for a short while after soaking so that the weight helped stretch the inseams - I used some clothes line to secure the pan in the waist when they were hanging, before I wore them damp. I needn't have bothered though as the shrinkage was such that the pan was well and truly gripped

And I'd be interested to know the pre-soak measurements of yours too...

[edmond]

wtf is that tag for?? is that the no.1's

[CrashTestBrummie]

It's a Yamane tag in the Lot 2000...they came in a Yamane bag too...

[edmond]

Best I can do at the moment, and it's pretty stained as they've been worn for a month already:

Yes please, that's the size I'm pondering about!
