oops just i was too late. haha

no worries, pls update if they turn out different from what i expect them to.

I am pretty sure Brinbro's Imperials are Dukes.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

[LaiShin]

^yea, they do look like sized up dukes. Kings won't have small enough leg opening to stack like this.

Yeah, you were right. They shrank but very slightly.

Hi,

Looking at getting a pair of Imperial Dukes as my next pair. I read in previous posts that the store AnotherInch in Sydney stocks them but their site isn't working, anything up with that (they still in bus)? I currently wear a pair of Nudie even stevens 34/34 but I could easily go a size down in the waist and a size up in the inseam (6'4" kinda tall), what kind of size would I be looking at for the dukes?

Cheers.

Give 'em a call at 936005333 ...You can prolly give 33 a go. They come in a 36" inseam, so I don't think u have much to worry about.

[kenthenoob]

makes me really want a pair of dukes..

since i got my new standards in a tagged 32 (33 actual), would it be best if i get the dukes in a tagged 33 (33 actual) if i wanted to get that look?

[vjiforlife]

^^^ i would say get sz 33. you will fall in love with them

[LIVENUDEGIRLS]

hi, Im looking into buying some dukes. My true waist is 32. I don't want a tight fit, should I sz up to 33 or 34?

I'll put up some post soak measurements of a 32 a little later to give you some perspective.

in case anyone wanted to see the new back pocket sizing & leather patch (pictures from brentos) :

[mmm]

Something looks off about the back pocket stiching. The point at the right pocket is closer to the edge of the pocket than it is on the left pocket.

[ironXcrayon]

that is wack

Nice, do you remember how much they set you back?

Cheers.

wears all the faded black imp's pics?

[Ahlvahroe]

damn, i washed my blacks for the first time the other day, 3 months fairly low wear, love my samurai too much. they look brand new now, most of the combs are gone now and nothing faded. oh well 9 months to go, more or less.

[choice_genes]

hmmm actually think I prefer the old back pockets. these ones look too long, relative to their width. but the new leather tag is dope.

are these the new kings? for some reason they looked flared or is that just me?

just foreshortening. theyre taken at an angle to fit them in the frame

[jkhan720]

brinbros, how much did you size up?

[enojy]

nope, those are the new dukes. i too think the back pockets still look a little off. too boxy i guess.

[jkhan720]

reading through the thread, how come everybody is saying to size up on these? reading selfedge's measurements they run big ie. 28 fits like a 29, 30 like a 31. maybe this is the new production? if so, do the ones at context measure out the same as the ones at self edge? as in 28 measures to a 29 waist?

im talking about dukes specifically. basically what i wanna know is, should i use the measurements on selfedge's site to order from context? anyone with experience ordering these from context?

[toufu]

go with self edge's chart

but buy the waist you want it to stretch out to

im a true 30-31 and all my jeans stretch out to a 32

so i got a 31 in dukes because they measure 32 exactly brand new..

[Cameland]

i coudlnt size down on these, you can go as low as your actual size.

[swooc]

damn seeing brinbros pic again makes me want to take mine out of the closet and start wearing them again. Brinbro's are dukes, and if i remember correctly he sized up one.

oh and the back pocket looks too small now hehe.

[kenthenoob]

you mean sizing up one as in one up from actual waist? er.. yeah..

[LaiShin]

Nice, do you remember how much they set you back?

Cheers.

damn california tax...$288 for me..

[LaiShin]

lol...it's $260 AUD =p

[brentos]

So yeah,

Those are my pics

But the reason the pockets look off is the angle of the picture/how the jeans were just thrown on the ground...Its the same reason they look flared. I was in a hurry and just snapped some quick shots. I can take some better ones in a couple days when they come back from the tailor's.
