Imperial Jeans

[Kev07]

you see where it's kinda fading there, right under the crotch on the right, that's gona rip

[hideout]

yeah, i have a hole in that exact same spot too. guess it's pretty common.

[Kev07]

i also hate imperial's build on their crotches, crotch bulge, misalligned buttons

[mac51o]

I have a vagina bulge on mines

[denimformytummy]

dont sag too much....

sagging make crotch easier to rip and form holes..

[choice_genes]

anyone got any word on the new cuts being released next year? (sorry if this has already been discussed, haven't read this thread in a while....)

I'm interested to know how skinny the skinny cut is going to be...

[outsidazz]

why everyone have such a problem with the crotch ? i never had one at all, seems fine to me even continually cycling everyday..

it's been 3 months now and cant hold my hand to put em in the washing machine or soak em but due to best result i have to hold em little while.

do you think soak em early could effect the fading progress ? did make it better or not ?

[mondo]

That little crotch hole that forms early on is due to a projecting bit of the placket at the back of the fly. It's got a sharp corner where the fabric is doubled over, and it rubs a hole through the outside quite quickly. Mostly I find that the hole doesn't get any larger if I stitch it up with some indigo thread as soon as it forms...but it would probably pay to cut that sharp corner off so it doesn't rub in the first place. Imperials aren't any better or worse than other brands when it comes to this problem. Evisus are the only jeans I've had that haven't ended up with that hole.

soak them while you are wearing them and wear them til they are dry. will feel cleaner but still have all the creases.

dukes have slim thighs and from what u said u have thicker thighs so def check the measurements first

they dont stretch like APCs so u have to be careful

[stukovx]

agreed, even after wearing them for almost a year, the thighs are still tight as hell and I went true to size.

[WayneGibbous]

^No doubt true. I went true to size on my Dukes and thy are still tight in the size. Copped true size shearers and they are a little more relaxed in the thighs.

[leftrightleft]

Just ordered a pair of Dukes in black size 29. I normally wear APC NS in a 28, should I have gotten a 30? Will the Duke stretch at the waist much?

[puregraffiti]

Any idea where I can get the best deals for Imperial's Online ?

btbam sells them but hes probably out of the popular sizes. There was some guy on the supermarket selling some inidigo dukes so check out the market.

I'm in almost the same situation as you. I Ordered sz 29 indigo dukes (wear NS in 28).

I received them today.... nice and tight in the waist area

I'm pretty sure your jeans will stretch enough

[callejeros]

Just rerecived my black Shearers.... they are tight as hell in the waist.

Anybody has any experience on strech on these?

1 inch to 1.5

1 inch to 1.5

Are they hard to strech?

Should I wet stretch them?

These jeans are made of raw sanforized denim, when washed, the denim will shrink approximately .75" in length (inseam) and between .5" and 1" in waist. Please keep this in mind when choosing your size. The denim will also stretch in the waist up to 1.5" after approximately 20 wears.

I bought my Dukes last year true to size, the waist has stretched about an inch or so, but the hips are still hella tight, and it was even worse coz it shrank after a soak.

I bought them in a size 28, and I'm wearing 26 for APC Hipsters.

[Sticky Icky]

Just a quick question about sizing:

If I wear a 33 in APC NS, what size should I look for in Imperial Kings and Dukes?

Thanks

Here are the size charts if you wanted to do some comparisons..
