do these still come in the short inseam version?

[Mr Calvin Oscar]

the greys look good

[nakedsushi]

Hey nakedsushi how tall are you, and what's your waist measurement? The back of the Lindas look great!

I'm 5' 9". My true waist is a 29" but the Lindas sit on my hips, so i'd say that's more of a 34"

[bangbangbang]

So the Lindas are low-waisted? The inseam is soo long.

[Guest DUM]

Shinichi informed me that the 5010xx 6x6 in 31 are out for a few months, but not in one wash...are the one washes still somewhat stiff? I could care less if the sheen is gone.

Definitely low waisted. I feel like if you have any kind of ass (which I don't) your crack would be saying hello whenever you sat down or bent over.

They can be.

Oh shit, hell yeah. THANKS!

[ninjapie]

Oh shit, hell yeah. THANKS!

From BiG:

Additions are S50-10XX 6x6(raw), Maureen(one-wash), Multi Stripe Tee, V-neck, Sweater, Chambray Button Shirts, Reversible Stripe Sweaters, and music CD's by Michiaki Tanaka produced by Skull owner Hiroshi Yamasaki.

So perhaps you can orders the raw's from BiG.

[neverletdown]

How should I go about getting these in the US? I want the one wash 6x6, with the tabs or the x. Selfedge doesn't have the 6x6, and Judging from the pictures on BiG, they just removed the tags. I'm gonna call them today and make sure. A bunch of people have asked how much it is to order direct, but noone has really given an estimate.. the 70 dollars custom fees scares me. and yes, i DID read the entire thread, sorry if i somehow missed this.

[ninjapie]

P.S

shipping fee for a pair of Jeans

different for each country area..

North America & Austraria 2400-2800yen

Europe 2800-3250yen

Asia 1800-2100yen

we use EMS(Express mail service of japan post)

this method is safety and cheaper than where on japan:)ZZzzzzzz....

The jeans are 20,790yen.

the restock picture on BiGs website shows the export Xs on the skulls. take a look.

[fallen angels]

the 70 dollars custom fees scares me.

whoa, is this true? people have been charged $70 for customs?

[neverletdown]

aha! i guess i will just order from BiG. I'm pretty sure i saw like twice in this thread that people got hit with pretty bad customs charges. I'm too lazy to look for it right now though.

[Guest DUM]

Fuck it, just ordered from BiG, went for the 2nd lowest shipping (DHL2nd day air) ended up at $250, too much but I just want them.

[Curious_George]

whoa, is this true? people have been charged $70 for customs?

I remember one guy got charged 68, but I don't know what country he is in. I think the majority of people haven't had any problems though. I ordered my pair from fabfour last week, but they said they wouldn't ship out until early this week. So I guess I'll see what happens when it arrives here in the US.

[Mr Calvin Oscar]

People got charged for customs? Couldn't have been from the US.... If you want to waste 50 more dollars and order from BiG, go ahead and do that...

[ndmhxc]

calvin oscar...ive been curious as to how your skulls have been looking lately. its been a while since ive seen an update (unless i just missed it). any new photos?

[Mr Calvin Oscar]

Hmm, I haven't been wearing them that much. I need to start again. I'll post when I get to 150 days, I'm at 142 right now.

[tsukasa]

If you live in Canada, you will be charged an additional 18% on top of your local gst and pst and a $5 handling fee, and probably a higher shipping rate. I don't feel like crunching the numbers right now, but you can figure it out yourself. If you order from BiG or SE or BB, then it will be local taxes + $5 handling fee if they ship by USPS.

This is exactly what i've actually heard from quite a few people.

We ship everything for free and use USPS EMS Express Mail for our international shipments, it's really quick and i can say that almost NEVER has anybody been charged customs with our product that i know of.

Do they make size 36 in 5507?

[kiya]

Do they make size 36 in 5507?

No, they only go up to 34, same goes for the 5010..

[JohnnyRed]

No, they only go up to 34, same goes for the 5010..

The 32s I'm wearing stretched almost 2 inches. If you don't mind snugness, a pair of 34s might be okay

[shinichi]

I remember one guy got charged 68:)

His country is one of Northern Europe.

Sweden , Finland or Norway.

Their country's customs are verrrrrrrry expensive:(

[ninjapie]

Most European countries charge an additional 19% tax and 10% import fee on top of the price noted down on the package.

[fndmybetterhalf]

picked my 5010xx's up yesterday from Blackbird (thanks alot Ruach). love them. i did some measuring and comparing and its very similar to Dior 19cm fit and measurement-wise. But i love how thick and slubby they are...which was what the Diors were missing.

i slouch my pants a bit...as you can tell.

excuse the slight nipping...its cold in my apt

and this was from WAYWT last night.

[nakedsushi]

Those are nice. Did you size down? They look slimmer than I thought.

[ruach]

Here are a couple more pictures of fndmybetterhalf wearing 5010XX indigo and gray that I took the other day for the blog.

[beefcake]

looks great!
