@Radiohead89 cheers dude 

[Geeman]

Sorry, neg reppd in error. 

Yeah what he said!

@Geeman @fresh1 @chambo2008 @kicks79 Thanks for the feedback! It sounds like I should ignore that 1.5" stretch advice and simply go with that of my flat waist measure. I bought them off someone that likely also had sizing issues, since they were new and unworn, so I've put them up for sale on Grailed at a discount if anyone is interested.

Have both 120x and 220x and trying to see what I could do to soften the denim up and try to get rid of the stiffness/rigidity to them. I’ve only soaked both of them each once. 

Should I do a gentle wash/dry?

[Geeman]

Washing isn't going to hurt them, but  yu may as well just wear them to break them in.

@noobedloser

washing might help get additional starch out but you gotta wear them to truly soften them up. I’ve got a pair of 120x and I think I’ve machine washed them once and tub soaked twice. I’ve worn them quite a bit and they are just now getting soft. 

[noobedloser]

I’ve been wearing my 120x for a few months now but still have the rigidity. I’ve only soaked them once though which might be the reason why. Maybe a wash will get rid of the starch and soften them up

3sixteen ST-220x Black/Black

~1.5 years of actual wear

Handful of washes

They have been repaired since these photos and are back in the rotation.

Managed to get one of the indigo garment dyed pima cotton tees. Really nice variation of color compared to my rope dyed indigo tees.
The pima cotton is super soft, and the indigo dyed version made the tee a bit shorter which is good. The normal two packs seem too long based on the size charts.

[Lazerr]

How do you like the fit @Broark ? I regret not getting the indigo heavy weight tee in an XL as they shrink up a good bit, even when using a cold wash and hang dry. 

[Broark]

@Lazerr the fit on this one is nice, the XL measures 23 in. in the chest and 27 in. in length.
The normal black pima tees measure 22.5 chest / 29 length, so slimmer and longer. I prefer shorter, boxier tees.

[Lazerr]

@Broark  I see, that seems perfect as the what I prefer as well. Shirt looks great, I wonder if they will restock on these when the shop in LA opens up again.

[Broark]

@Lazerr not sure if they're doing another run of these or not, these were a special run dyed by Green Matters Natural Dye Company.

[Lazerr]

@Broark Ahhh darn, I'll add myself to the waitlist and see if they do another run. In any case, i'll try grabbing one of the Ash colored Tees. 

[JDelage]

They sold out the day of. They look lovely.

3sixteen ST-TH1 220x 10th anniversary edition

Haven't posted in superdenim in a minute! Worn for 3 years or so and then on/off for a year. I took these photos last year and haven't gotten around to repairing some of the holes but I hope to wear them again.

I'd buy if the taper wasn't so bad. But, BOW now mostly seems to sell denim with the carrot taper, which I hate. Is this the new normal for denim?

I just received my pair today, but I need to exchange for the next size up. They're nice looking!

Its a new 12.5oz denim. CT fit has worked for me in the past so I was wondering how the denim is itself...

[shredwin_206]

Always liked the brand but the rise was always too low for me. Also didn’t like the taper.

Señora Padre's 77BSP. She is good at beating up jeans.

First post on here, thought I'd share my most recent pickup.

3Sixteen type III Caustic wave OD. I've had this jacket for about 2 months now. It was new second hand from a buddy and I snagged it for a great price. The jeans are Iron heart 633's in double black.

 

 

[Neilltheone]

Anyone here?! Haha. I recently did a first soak on my caustic wave overdye. And took some pics in light and I have to say I wore the hell out of this thing for 6 months straight and it looks like this is going to be a stubborn fader for sure but I’m excited to see how this turns out.Here’s some pictures. 

Just showing off the pins. Self edge x good art shop pin and my 3sixteen NY pin.

 

there was tons of dye loss when I soaked and some of it got onto the patch. Pattern looks kinda cool.

Copped these Giraffe shorts from the 3sixteen sale, surprisingly light weight compared to my other fatigue shorts

Looks like they only have size 34+ now. I am a 32 and these fit me well after a hot wash+machine dry

[elmcitizen]

I grabbed a pair of the Blue Owl "Gold Rush" Shadow Selvedge Jeans in the CT fit since I prefer lighter weigh denim and the color looked great. What I found surprising was the rear pocket size. Like a regular iPhone didnt fit.

I measured and the pockets are the same size as my GF's 77BSP fit. Not sure if it was just this run for Blue Owl or all the 3sixteen jeans share the same pocket size, mens and women's fit. Kinda bummed but I still like the denim and the fit.

[goodrain]

French Terry sweatpants. Very comfortable and both colors are SO GOOD

[JDelage]

The 3Sixteen sweat pants are the best ones IMHO. Their sweatshirts are also very nice but the pockets add quite a bit of bulk.

[ColonelAngus]

I like 3sixteen knits. Did they discontinue their indigo henleys?
