First substantial pair of raw selvedge (Hx: 2 x cheap monday, edwin)

5010xx - sz 34 - suggestions?

Very SF chic tbh. By this I mean they seem very straight.

I do imagine it would make for great tiling combs though a few months from now.

Does anyone know where I can buy skull 5010xx in size 26? Could anyone point me to a proxy / website?

[chambo2008]

someone in the supermarket is seeling them with red tab

[skunky386]

I saw those, they're hemmed to a 34, and the original is a 37 inseam. Do you think that'd look weird?

[Gold Soaked Afternoon]

^ I would think if you're a size 26, a 37 inseam would look stranger than a 34. Unless you're somewhat of a walking skeleton.

[chambo2008]

im 5.11 and a 33 is perfect

How would a 37 inseam look stranger? Would it make me appear shorter? I heard it was taboo to hem raw denim, but is that not the case when it is such a small waist size?

dude. hemming jeans has nothing to do with how big or small your waist is. ITS HOW TALL YOU ARE!

I'm 6'5" tall. I wear a 34 waist and all my jeans are un-hemmed. but that's cuz i'm huge. if I was a size 26 waist. I would look like a fucking skeleton as Gold Soaked Afternoon stated, and would still need a 37" inseam. since i'm guessing you're not my height, 34 inseam should be more than enough length for you.

well that is what the website says lol.

I just ordered a pair of skulls, not really sure if the order went through or not though. lol

to reiterate what -Z- said, if you're a 26 waist, you're probably not super tall (I'm 6'3", pretty damn skinny but still wear a 30-31 in skulls, and they still stack a lot), probably more in the range of 5'8"-5'11"? Hence, you're stacking would stop closer to your knee than your ankle. So like I said, a 34 would probably still stack a fair amount for you without being absurd.

Thanks for all your replies, you guys have been a ton of help.

[benbenben]

Thinking of slightly tapering instead of hemming. Thoughts?

[daynym]

Thx for your comments guys.

@ ben: I wouldn´t do that. Imo, your fit looks good.

[benbenben]

Post-soak fit - I like it better, might not alter.. good advice daynym, thanks!

[daynym]

you will become some nice stack fades for sure...

[blakey]

If I'm a 34 in Imperial Dukes and a 34 (lot 10) for Samurai s710. What size for 5507 or 5510? Looking at the 5507 since it is the more relaxed/straight fit..

Cheers

[beatle]

34 as well.....

[HeatIsHot]

X - from evo.

s5000bk 3 days / s5010xx 18 months .

[tu_madre51]

Does anyone have any 5507 fits? I just wanna compare how mine fit to others. I can only seem to find 5010s in here. Thanks

[beatle]

there's plenty of 5507 fit pics in this thread..gonna have to leave through it

[huatzai]

5010xx

[JustinnJj]

Are the 5010 Grey Skulls still available ANYWHERE? And how do they fade? I've been searching everywhere..

edit. found some. is there any place cheaper than 230$? and still wondering if/how they fade.

[chambo2008]

fabfour should sell them, also fabfour have a worn gallery maybe some there?

[JustinnJj]

yeah, thanks! not digging the fading though. looks repulsive to me.

i just bought some flathead bsp. i needa another pair to wear every other day. should i go with the indigo 5010? or maybe some imperial...

[teffguigui]

Hi there !!!

Here some pics of my 14month 50-10xxx 6x6. No wash but only 1/2 wear a weak.

[Scaught]

I recently bought a pair of 5010 in size 29 raw, and was hoping they'd stretch at least a little bit, as my Samurais are also size 29 and are absolutely perfect, if not even a little bit loose. The waist size on the size charts at BiG have the Skulls listed as 1" larger, actually. I've been through two painful days but they don't seem to be bulging. I've worn skintight New Cures, PBJs, and Samurais and never encountered this problem. The fit is spot on everywhere but my ass. From the crotch down it's perfect. Should I stick with these?

[chambo2008]

the waist will stretch give it a bit more time, or dip the waist in water and wear damp
