How would you guys compare the color of the skulls 5010 and 5010 6x6 to a samurai 710?

I'm really looking for something that is very true blue.

pretty damn sure ur a 28

Has anyone removed the X from the back pocket yet? I wanna get rid of it, but I'm afraid it will leave big holes that will unravel.

I bought a pair of size 28 5010xx raw and they were just too tight in the ballsack. Fit pics from a previous post in this thread are here: http://www.superfuture.com/supertalk/showpost.php?p=796091&postcount=2820

So I had Kiya send me a size 29 instead and here's the fit pics. They are still really stiff because I've only tried them on long enough to take some pics and see how they fit.

Opinions on the fit now? Maybe my body type isn't the best for these jeans...I'm about 6 feet tall and 135ish lbs for reference. They have kind of an MC Hammer parachute pants thing going on at the low hips (denim flares out awkwardly) because the denim is so stiff still I think.

[billiamphan]

the hip flares will go away after awhile. I had the same problem when I first got my skull contest jeans

[jcotteri]

they look fine man, the denim will relax with a little wear...dont stress, those will look great after a while.

there's a guy on this thread named shinichi. send him a pm. i think he posted his email somewhere also. he will show u the light.

[fallen angels]

jackboot, just keep wearing them, they will look better with time. i think the initial raw stage always looks a little awkward until they are properly broken in, so dont worry.

[Junetastic]

i have a weird hip flare on my left too. it'll be 2 months on dec 28 and it's still lingering around lol

Yes i have ordered from that website

You have to email them exactly what you want. They will email you back with a description and invoice and a reference number, a login ID, a password and a link to an international customer page which is in english. You type in the password, log in id and give your reference number, fill in your order and there you have it...ordered.

here is the email address: [email protected]

thanks for the reply..but do they stretch much ? cheers..

Second the 28-29 recommendation. I have the NS in 26 (new and nut-hugger tight) and the Skull 5010 in a 29 - see the "evolution" thread for pictures of both. The Skulls were tight but button-able when I got them. They have stretched a little bit - I think I could handle a 28 in the waist, but I am still glad I went for the 29 over the 28. I guess it depends if you want to have children, and whether you like the "Superfuture fit".

finished up with my hot soak. they shrunk up a little which i liked, i was mainly hoping for inseam shrinkage. havent measured it yet. the stacking isnt as extreme as it was before, but i still think i might need to have them hemmed. sorry for the size but here are pics with a few hours of wear after the soak:

overall i love the fit, but stacking looks really weird on my left leg for some reason right now. let me know what you think.

...give it a few more wears...

from my experience, the stacking will eventually settle and bunch up more towards the leg opening (if that makes any sense)

otherwise they look pretty good...

hem, or grow a few inches

[fightattack]

My friend just gave me some Skull Ebony Johny 34" for Xmas that he picked up while in Tokyo

(he's a good friend)

Well, they're SUPER SUPER tight on me - so much so that I can't get the top two buttons buttoned without sitting down. Squeezng the sh*t out of me.

I normally fit just fine into 34s but this is kinda ridiculous . . .

I wear a 33 Nudie Thin Finn and I thought those were tight . . .

They don't make these in 35-36" . . .

Anyone have any experience or know how much they will stretch out (if at all)?

I've read 1.5 in earlier in this thread . . . or is that cm?

If it's cm, then I'm screwed.

The legs fit perfectly, however . . .

[bchhun]

no pain no gain

[mrpenguin354]

Waist will stretch 1-2 inches if you need it to.

1.5 inches, not cm

If you can just barely get them buttoned, you can probably make them fit better after stretching, albeit very tightly.

[ggatsby]

wow

i thought mine were tight when i first got them (ball crushing, but buttonable)

they've since stretched out, after about 3 weeks, to a semi-comfortable state

but only being able to button 2 buttons...i'm not sure man

[MataLeao]

When the Skulls stretch out 2 or more sizes, then it's time for a hot soak.

[Sea]

off to BiG tomorrow to be hemmed. the inseam is a 36" right now, thinking about an alteration to around a 33" or 34" inseam. suggestions?

[ninja07]

A few more days wear on the skulls. The denim has noticeably stretched around the waist (15.75 now) and feels about right. Enjoying the fit now.

Well, no - I could button all but the top two, so like 4 out of 6 buttons were buttons I can button just fine standing up.

I found that if I laid down, I could button the top two (you know, like that frikkin girl jeans commercial from the 90s . . . ugh)

It's incredibly uncomfortable, but they can be buttoned.

Just trying to decide if it's worth seeing if they'll stretch out or just sell em and get a different brand.

I definitely have a little bit of the winter weight gain, so things might get better as it gets closer to summer.

Even if it stretches a full 2 inches, it'll be slim fitting . . . which is fine as most of my jeans stretch out a little more than I like.
