Raw for Women

[patchmb]

good slim straight fit imo. My gf has some Lee's that fit very similar & i like them, just need the right shoes .

Thanks for the input guys and girls! She coulnt decide what to hem at so she did an in-between so they could be worn with flats and heels. It's her first foray into raw.

Good choice, getting the right length is important. Would look good with engineers as well as heels.

As said, I think she definitely needs a hem and those are perfect.

Kind of a X post from the regular Flat Head thread....

My GF wants a pair of dry denim... when i first met her she scoffed at some of my clothes and now she wants to rock em too hehe ... problem is, shes thicker down below so i'm not sure if this is possible? She has a 34 waist and like 45 at the widest i think for her hips? Are there any models that she could wear that would actually fit? The Balder do come in bigger sizes but the thighs/hips may still be a bit too small for her? I dunno.

I wanna pick a pair of Balders up for her ASAP, all help/input appreciated Kiya says to get one size up as they shrink a size, but in my own experience with TFH i had a pair of F380 TTS that shrunk but stretched out way too much after a bit of wear and i had to sell em.

Advice?

Listen to Kiya.

Balders are my favorite.

[splattered]

So which size do you advise then given her measurements?

[neptunecitylocal]

Well since she's a 34 in the waist and the size listed are vanity sizes, listen to Kiya and go with a 31.

[neptunecitylocal]

Actually...she might not be able to fit into them at all.

Because of her hips? Hopefully someone with larger sizing experience can ring in... haha

Other brand/model suggestions would be cool too if everyone agrees balders absolutely would not work out.

[blackfuture]

If your girl has no issues with the thigh measurement, Balders are good for girls with wide hips. My girl has a slim hourglass figure and her Balders fit great everywhere, but she doesn't fill out the top block.

Any more ideas guys? I'd love to order her pair today

My girlfriend went TTS (31) on a pair of 3sixteen+s and they fit perfectly. A bit tight at first, but stretched nicely. Wish I had taken pics of initial fit. I'll get some pics of her in them now up soon.

[koi]

What do you women think of apc's? i'm planning on purchasing the the petit standards for the ladyfriend.

[wayoutwest]

i can't speak to the new geisha's because after 05/29/10 they were a bit smaller than the ones my wife has (from 2009). but her size 0 is now a measured 30" so my best guess is that it'll stretch out about 1" to 1.5" from new.

they're an amazing jean but you might also want to consider the somet 008 - they're men's but fit women really well (my wife is wearing both of my pairs - black and blue).

good luck.

thanks for the info lowrider , im interested in the denim but on the 710 colab with take5 , think you have confused me with a lady (lol)

[splattered]

Ok peeps... my gf got her Balders in the mail today while i'm at work and she TXTd me and said the thighs are too tight to put them on. She isn't sure if a size up will fix that either... damn. Any other models you guys think might work? 34 waist, 45 butt, 12+ thighs(i need to re-measure that later) the thighs are what is too tight on a size 31 which are listed on self edge as 11.9

[blackfuture]

Bummer, if she tried them on without soaking and they're too small, then they definitely won't work (they need to be shrunk via hot water.) I can't think of any raw women's jean cut fuller in the thigh & top block than balders. They're all meant to be slimming.

[splattered]

Alright... i'll check them out when i go home do some more measuring and see if the 32 will work. Might have to go with a guys cut worst case scenario then :/

***Also, if she can get into the 32 before a soak... i'm wondering if she can do a sit n soak like the levi STF type jeans? That way they don't really shrink any more than her body will allow haha hmm

[pepper davies]

Post pictures of the fit if you don't mind. I'm trying to help a friend get some jeans.

Quality ++++++

Does anyone have experience with Slings & Stones?

The Balder's thighs aren't gonna work even at size 32... her thighs are 25-26 at the widest.

Would the S&S Delilah work maybe? They are 5% poly-stretch so they should have a bit more give to them in size 32?

^ size 33 of these? http://blueingreensoho.com/site/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=shop.flypage&product_id=2223&category_id=&manufacturer_id=9&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=28

not sure what's up with this chart, but looks like a 33 or 34 of these might work http://blueingreensoho.com/site/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=shop.flypage&product_id=3600&category_id=&manufacturer_id=9&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=28

i hear these stretch a lot, if she doesn't mind a baggy waist http://blueingreensoho.com/site/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=shop.flypage&product_id=9325&category_id=&manufacturer_id=38&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=28

just go to some sites and click around. if the waist and thigh look right, regardless of whether they're mens, get them. if they don't look right, don't try to talk yourself into it. if it says they stretch a lot, figure you've got up to an inch to gain the thighs, total. if it says they shrink a lot, figure you'll lose up to an inch. don't expect more, in my experience at least....

@ splattered

you can try mens size....but the more slim or skinny cut

like: ih301s, pbj etc
