Skull Jeans by An Alchemist

[seenmy]

postman woke me up real early with these,shinichi thanks so much for all your help,fit is perfect for me on the waist i post pics when my battery charges,leg lengths gonna take gettin used to after wearing diors for the last 4 months

[seenmy]

[moykky]

I got mine today too, will post pics later... They're perfect!

EDIT:

Size 30 5010XX Indigo. I'm 185cm and little less than 70kg (that's about 6'2" and I don't know how many stones...). I wear my jeans quite low in my hips also. After one hour these are already quite comfortable, I'm lucky they ran out of size 29, thanks Shinichi

[seenmy]

a little slouch as i normally would top of my hips they wouldnt go any lower,need a bit of slouch as the leglength isnt massive for a guy of my height,i think youd like these R

[bart1]

Seenmy, how do you campare them to your Diors? I think Skull > Dior.

[shinichi]

seenmy san! Moykky san!

congraaaaaaaaatulations!

Ms. N said 'nice fit! cool guys!';)

Leg length will shrinks by 1.5-2cm if you wash it.

(Length to which you are doing roll-up in seenmy's pics.)

enjoy Skull Life!

Bart1 san!

I want also to learn the same thing!

very deep black.

The ebony is blacker than 5010XX black

Johny is same as 5010XX's silhouette.

Smart is same as 5508XX's silhouette.

Ramon is same as LINDA's silhouette.

thank you.

and NEWS,

5010XX Indigo added larger size today.

Size 33 and 34.(max was 32 before)

I will upload size chart ,tomorrow.

[seenmy]

ummm id find it hard t compare fully to my diors as i sized up 2 on my diors as i wanted a looser fit i was breaking in gently to skinnies,i really love the feel of these skulls size in waist is perfect had a good walk round town today in them and liking the legth,i think im gonna warm soak the top half to set in my creases etc but not the whole jean as id rather keep that extra cms length.

i would love if skull added to their line a 36 inseam on the 31s that would be truely amazing addition.

i made this today at uni to keep a diary of how skulls wear over my final yr at uni

[minya]

I've got a pair of indigo 5010xx's on the way. Can't wait to get them. I'll post pics as soon as they arrive.

[Astérix]

Shit...these are the new PBJ-005x

[chapital]

Yo, moykky & seenmy awestome stuff guys! Skulls are fitting u real well!

I can't wait to get mine, just waiting for the 6x6 to get restocled...

Also, seenmy, do you mean you made the leather bound book? If so, nice work! I'm digging it!!!

[seenmy]

yeah the book is my handy work,first time i ever did book binding properly so pleased how it turned out im getting a button fixed to it today.to finish it off.

i sioaked/wore my jeans in shower last night i post pic in a bit

[tweeds]

the leatherwork was all your own? that's absolutely lovely, seenmy.

fitting accessory to your jeans - an art in itself

[seenmy]

cheers,i suprised my self with it to be honest,now just to document the jeans in it over the next year,it should leave a nice shape in the pocket of the jeans and hopefully take on some of the colouring,funny explaining idea to my tutors who were quite grossed out by the idea of not washing the jeans

pics of fit after a hot rinse in shower wear to dry,feels like waist has stretched out about a cm or so already.but general fit id go as far to say is perfect.

[shinichi]

seenmy san!

I'm looking forward to document!

I want to put your records pics on our used-gallery, if you like.

wow. great leather craft!

is this cow leather?

[seenmy]

yea deffinatly shinichi i will keep you updated with wear pics and also how the book comes together,yea its made from cow hide nice and thick just fits in the back pocket of the jeans

[choice_genes]

seenmy, that leatherwork is DOPE. Great stuff! Did you carve it out, or emboss/brand it?

[bart1]

I'll echo the others - nice "jean journal". I have done a litle leatherwork before and can appreciate the effort - it's HARD work!

[bart1]

I've got a pair of indigo 5010xx's on the way. Can't wait to get them. I'll post pics as soon as they arrive.

Glad you ordered some. I am sure you'll be pleased.

[seenmy]

cheers im really happy with it i just added the final touch this morning at uni,needs a little tidying on edges.yea i designed a plate and got it made up and then just branded it into the leather.

back to the jeans mine have stretched id say a inch in waist now i gotta start wearing a belt

[sean_]

seenmy just for curiosity sakes how tall are you?

i think your pics convinced me to go with these for my next jeans, even after dreaming about julian reds

edit: whats the difference between the 5010xx and the 5010xx 6x6? sorry if its been asked already

edit again nevermind i found it in that other skull thread. so is the regular 5010xx a one wash or no wash?

very, very nice...If youre going for a completely natural looking wallet (without dyes) I'd recommend using beeswax to finish and protect the edges...you can get a nice sized block at http://tandyleather.com/products.asp?number=2014-00

this works well too if you apply a light coat: http://tandyleather.com/products.asp?number=2227-02 ... but itll darken the edges slightly on account of the dye.

[moykky]

so is the regular 5010xx a one wash or no wash?

One wash. They're nice and soft from the box :

[synthi]

seenmy that's an awesome fit, glad these worked out for ya

[seenmy]

sean-im 6'4 and weight about 10 stone im really loving the lehgth on these actually a real nice change to my look from the extra long diors i been wearing before.

whodinihimself thanks for the advice on the beeswax il have a look around town today for some,to finish this up.
