That's how it starts, then one day you go to scratch your ass and your finger goes right up your butt.

Dudes over there at Skull seem to have stopped responding to emails as well.

Why is anyone still backing their product?

lol, talk about easy access

I dont know why everyone is so disenfranchised, or suprised about the "quality" of skulls.

The natural cotton looks better, but it isnt as strong...

They make really good jeans as far as I'm concerned, mine have barely come unstitched, and I traveld around Asia and Europe wearing them.

Wash them more frequently, you will soften the denim, and make it easier for the cotton thread.

hey where is that on your jeans? i have some minor stitching errors too.

[phen3N]

its about 2-3 inches down from the crotch on the right thigh

[maydenchina]

I have that on my left thigh, its been there for like 2 months now and hasnt gotten any worse. Just keep wearing em and dont worry!

We got 5010 Raw Black Selvage in today and a restock of a few things. Call the store if you have any questions

yeah they sure are

I have had my Skulls for about 6 months now, and have had many areas start to come unstiched. What I have done, and it works very well actually, is cut the loop of the thread, and then inside the jeans, get some super glue and glue the inside stich. I have done this to many parts of the jeans, including the front and back pockets, crotch and thighs. I will try to post pictures later if anyone wants.

that's pretty clever, and yeah, sounds like it would work really well without having any adverse effects since superglue doesn't run or melt or anything like that.

I've done the same using clear nail polish for pulls and stuff in denim and never had any problems with the same area

[pigeonk]

yeah they sure are

just have some questions..

does grey skulls 5010xx stretch out a lot?

i just got 'em(size 29) and i could button up till the last button after trying for awhile... its still tight like hell though.. for now...

how much will the waist stretch out? and my thigh area seems really tight now (kinda like skin tight and i hate it.) will they stretch out quite a fair bit too? i hope the thighs will.

We've found that the grey ones don't stretch much at all, i would get a larger size.

oh man, thats bad news for me. alright, thanks!

[kenthenoob]

kiya, isn't your smallest size for grey skulls 32" right now?

[eightynine]

i've had my pair of 5010XX for about three weeks now and since i got them i've been cuffing the leg openning because of how long they are. not i'm thinking i don't like the way the cuff looks anymore because it still stacks some above the cuff. any suggestions on how i should hem them?

[magic]

Hot soak them to have some shrinkage i would say. Maybe u can post some pic so that ppl can give u more suggestion.

[enojy]

what magic said; if they are still raw (not the one wash model or anything like that) the inseam will shrink about 2" with the first wash or long hot soak.

I would but the waist is just perfect. if i shrunk them anymore i wouldn't be able to fit into them.

[Cameland]

The waist won't shrink much, if it does, stretch it back out by pulling on it while its damp or wedge something inbetween it while your soaking it. The length should shrink up at least an inch.

[magic]

I think for the waist will stretch out with some wear but for the length wont. Maybe you will tight at the beginning but after some wear it will fit you perfect. Just like cameland had said, the waist wont shrink much so dont worry.

i fell while skating and now my skulls have a ugly fade on the back pocket. hopefully itll be less noticeable when the rest of the jeans are faded
