You take some rope and you hang yourself while wearing your jeans. Quick, go try it now!

[phen3N]

^haha

[bouwnt]

i've been going about this all wrong

i tried but it wont work. sad

Seriously, how are you supposed to wear a pair of 5010's when it's like 85 degrees outside? I was sweating like crazy today.

i walked home (close to 10 miles) in my skulls the other day when it was high 80s. my legs don't sweat all that much; a blessing and a curse.

My back sweats more than my legs. Wearing Skulls in 100 degree weather is cupcakes.

I am legend....seriously - that's the spirit.....

If anyone wants some 5507s in a 32 let me know, not really satisfied that much in the fit, they're bnwt and I'm pretty sure theres no more on SE, at least in that size.

Skull 5507XX 6x6 27. Unsoaked (but the denim's sanforized), and mad tight. I can fasten all the buttons, but it definitely feels strained. I'm not sure whether I like the fit or not yet, looking for some help deciding whether to keep or sell these.

[lmaozedong]

i can see ur buttcheeks lol.

i think the upper thigh area and butt will stretch out to fit nicely, i think it'll be perfect

good choice in picking 5507xx for your body type

[lenn]

it'll stretch, but give it some time. don't be surprised to get stomach aches the first few days you wear them

[dshack]

and I have to get a slimmer wallet...right now I have to unbutton my jeans to get it in or out of the pocket....

should make for great, defined fades, though.

I can hear your balls screaming for freedom.

[m1sterko]

dshack how big are your thighs?

i dunno if 5010xx's would fit my thighs

but your fit is spot on perfect

[dshack]

my thighs are 20.5"

I'm thinking that I'll probably keep them unless someone wants to trade for a similar jean a size up.

[beatle]

It's more or less the pockets that make it look a little too tight....if they want to fold - a wallet will be tough to wear..size up 1....

[enojy]

agreeing with beatle. i always stress getting the 5010xx 6x6 true to size, that's just how they work. i sized down 1 and kinda wish i hadn't, and that's 9 months in so they're definitely done stretching. they do stretch but they keep the slim shape, so it's not really mandatory to size down.

and so it begins

this happened to me in the first week and it hasn't changed since. only thing i'd have to repair was the back pockets and thats bc lots of skating and biking.

[enojy]

same, no thread breaks here except for inevitable ones that'll happen on any pair of jeans...

[ajchen]

good to know... i'm not too worried, my imperials had some thread break in a similar place on the pocket stitching and it hasnt deteriorated. i will keep a closer eye on the back pockets as those are problem spots, but even thats not a big deal to me.

IMHO you would do well to size up one. From the looks of the picture of your arse they are straining bigtime at the seams. No offense, but I don't think the look is flattering. I bought a pair of 5010s that fit the same (could just barely button and strained at the seams) and I sized up one and am very glad I did. Even when I sized up one they were tight as hell but stretched to fit perfectly. Maybe the pair you have right now could stretch to fit better, but I definitely don't think sizing up one would be "too big" by anyones definition.

Purchased on the 8th from BiG. Tried on multiple brands yet these were the only ones I really liked.

Opinions?

[Leonard Leroy]

hah your 29s look looser than mine did. They were spandex when I first got them.

[esoteric]

I have a thread break similar to that on my right pocket as well, and I've had it for awhile and nothing has changed.

My friend recently got his Skulls about a month ago and did hard bboying int hem and his crotch exploded. Haha
