[chapital]

Yo thanks Chapital. It's good to have a comprehsive list of all the sizing charts finally.

No sweat bro, if we had a chart for the 6x6 unwashed then it would be finally complete!

[doctorgnar]

has anyone washed or soaked their one-wash Skulls? want to comment on how much they shrank in the waist or length?

[seenmy]

ive soaked my 1 wash 5010xx about 3 0r 4 times worn in shower 30 mins as hot as i can bear,usually shrink back pretty much back to the size they arrived at,certainly i didnt find any noteable shrik in length or waist

[seenmy]

5010xx 6x6 long inseam 31 waist raw.im 6'4 tall about 10.5 stone

[chapital]

Looking good seenmy, the stacking is definately more prominent than on your normal 5010XX. They also look way stiffer!

Good stuff!

[edmond]

Sweet! Make sure you post pics when you get them, I've been real curious about how they would look on!

Skull 5010XX and 5010XX 6x6 size chart:

hmmmmmmmmm

No sweat bro, if we had a chart for the 6x6 unwashed then it would be finally complete!

according to the chart, its +1"

depends on which samurai you are comparing to. I just bought a pair of skull black 5510 and samurai jin from Osaka. skull jeans generally have more modern cuts like the slim cuts and lower waist etc. The denim quality is not quite as good as samurai. The jin is 17oz and skulls are mostly 14oz denim. The samurais, whatever weight, are more open and more slubby. I suggest they fade better. The accessory such as buttons, labels etc are also more detail on the samurai.

News alert..

After a long phone conversation with the president of Skull Jeans, Self Edge has been blessed with a Skull Jeans account.

Our first shipment of jeans should be here by Monday or so.

5010, 5507, and Linda

After those three arrive we'll be bringing in shirts shortly after.

[kwonster]

will you be getting the 6x6 5010's as well? and what price will you be charging for the 5010? thanks!

^ Don't capitalize every word it makes it hard to read. Thanks for the fast shipping on the wallet Shinchi, it only took about 5 bus. days. Amazing product and customer service. I highly reccomend this stuff, my next jeans after the contests sammies will likely be a pair of these.

Keri(I'f your still reading this thread) I know you say you have a booty and that the Lindas fit you well, my only question is do you have a bit of a round ass or is it just hips. The reason I ask is because my gf has a bum but shes not a big girl and I wanted to get your opinion on the fit. The Japanese model in the pictures has typical pancake ass so its hard to tell.

ahhh, this is late, haha, it's both actually, I have a bubble back there (thank you drill team.....) and hips. I'm the smallest gal in the family, well excluding the barely 5' tall vietnamese cousin..., but my butt/ hip area is big enough to make me one size larger in that area (my top half is a size 4, and in pants legs are normally pretty loose on me, but fit in the hip/butt area - but on the linda's, the legs are spot on, they are cut pretty slim in the thigh, but mostly because i should have went up a size in the butt, i was between and went with the larger, i should have gone up one more to accmodate the butt, because these suckers were tough!) if you need some measurements of the jeans or something after they have relaxed pm me and I'll measure them, that might help you decide what size to get.

[tweeds]

5010XX just in

[jsn]

nice! what size did ya get? direct from fabfour or qc?

[CaptMomo]

nice nice fit tip,

got a good drapy/slim look going on

willllllld

[xviralx]

nice tee TIP... love it when the sleeve doesnt flare out. Great fit on skulls too

[tweeds]

they're very similar to my new standards, which is a bit worrying because it's only been worn for a few hours so i hope they don't stretch out too much. i sized one up (29 to 30)...i suspect i'm in between sizes because 29 might have been too cheapmonday-ish.

[kiya]

will you be getting the 6x6 5010's as well? and what price will you be charging for the 5010? thanks!

We're only getting the normal 5010 for now.. (and also the 5000 and Linda..)

we're looking to price all our Skulls for about 250 to 265...

free shipping as usual..

6x6 is just sanforized and with a black patch... and slighty heavier weight denim from my understanding.

[tweeds]

and a different weave...

[sycamore no more]

Linda size chart I posted in the raw denim for women thread for any of you guys who didn't catch it and are still wondering.

The Linda is a lowrise jean. The waist part (belt line) for these are 8-9 cm under from your traditional waist (narrower part of waist).

[buzzed]

nice pick-up tweedles! fit is spot on

[PG2G]

Kiya, raw or one wash?

[Sook A Look]

;and both 5010XX and 5010XX 6x6 are sanforized.

This is from really early in the thread...page 6 I think. I was just wondering if this is still the case because I'm reading about everyone soaking there skulls and such. That and if this were the case is a one-wash model really necessary?

[chapital]

according to the chart, its +1"

it's not. Shinichi sent me the exact measurements of a raw 29" before I decided to get the one wash 29". They are not just 1" up. I posted the measurements and detailts about this a few months ago when dudes kept asking about raw fitting.

Measurement of 5010XX 6x6 NonWash 29inch

(*this is theory value)

Waist 80.0

Total length 113.5

Inseam 91.5

Front rise 24.5

Back rise 34.5

Thigh (x2) 27.5

Bottom opening (x2) 18

Hip(x2) 46.5

compare these to the chart you quoted. you can see it is not just one size up.

and nice fit tweedles, they fit you real well!

[CaptMomo]

but

not meaning to nitpick.

compared to the chart,

one inch upper for the 29" is 79.5

the difference between that approximation and the theory values given to u by shinichi is 0.5cm.

so i reckon the chart's a safe gauge?

anyway, i guess the best way around is to email shinichi direct for measurements.
