perhaps u got the one-wash variety? the contest pair are raw.

leonard, those aren't raw are they? if so, when you wash, they'll shrink and break every bone in your lower body.

no...they're sanforized..if it was shrink to fit denim then he'd be fucked

[Leonard Leroy]

I don't plan on washing these for a while. I wanted something fucking skinny... I'll just let them be for now. But ya, I'd die if I had to fit in them a size smaller

[toufu]

you'll be fine..i did the same as well

[Angry Inch]

Can't wait to see pictures of the 5010XX Whites.

My 5010XX Blacks should be here in a couple of days!!

[lowrider]

My whites should be here by Friday. Will post pics.

Post up your blacks when you get them. Would like to see some good detail shots of the colour.

albeit not much, they will still shrink 2-3% after wash.

[Leonard Leroy]

I plan on letting them just stretch with wear, so that when I finally soak or wash, they'll just shrink to tagged size or something.

[lowrider]

New (actual) pics of the whites are up on BiG. Man they look HOT! Hurry up USPS!!

[Angry Inch]

I get my black 5010's tomorrow morning. After looking at the pics of the whites I might have to get a pair of those too if Gordon still has my size.

------------------------------------------------------

EDIT: just got my blacks. Yikes! They run small. The waist measures smaller than shown on the website. I sized up one from my 6x6 O/W size, but might have to size up two if I can't get the buttons to close.

Post up fit pics. It'll help us help you decide.

[lowrider]

Shit. You guys are scaring me. My whites should arrive tomorrow and I hope I can fit them!

BTW, how many blacks were made? BiG shows that only 60 whites were created but didn't mention the number of blacks. Did you guys find out from talking to someone at BiG?

Post fit pics and detail pics!!

[rocky54]

ill post pics..kinda worried though-i knew they ran smaller, but i didnt think blacks ran that much smaller. just heads up for anyone whos interested in gettin the blacks-..size up...

[lowrider]

Whew...

So the whites run a size big and the blacks run 1/4" smaller than tag according to the link above.

[Angry Inch]

Gordon told me that the whites are running true to the posted size while the blacks are running small. My size 31 measured a little bigger than 30".

I don't know how many blacks were made. BIG only had two pre-orders, me and rocky54, apparently. A size run of blacks are in transit from Japan. Rocky is right: it is a cool color and should wear nicely.

I can't really post fit pics, unless you want to see pics of me with unbuttonable jeans.

[toufu]

definately take pics

(lol no homo)

[lowrider]

Got my whites today and they fit spot on. I'm sad though cuz I didn't get the full cross embroidery! I only got a "T." Grrrrrrr....

Anyone else get their "tip" cut off like me?

[lowrider]

Holy Leg Twist!

[lowrider]

Here's the fit:

[corter]

those look so good. i didnt think i'd like white but wow

[Pandemonium]

holy moly!

they look freakin hard to pull off for a person like me.

but they look freakin awesome.

[Angry Inch]

Lowrider, your whites look un-be-farkin-lievable. That white is sweet (for how long though).

Do they run true to the posted measurements?

If I want a pair I guess I have to act fast. Hmmmm....

[M.O.A]

those are fresh

skull 5010xx roughly 3 months of very solid wear

*snuck the tanner belt in for some collabo shots

cheers

[Angry Inch]

Those look great. Did they start life as raw or O/W?

[M.O.A]

i got em raw

[lowrider]

Thanks guys, love'em but farkin' hard to keep these clean. Don't walk in the rain in them cuz I did today and the heel splatter on the calves suck. Dryell stain remover works like a charm though, all out.

Nice nice nice Kix...

[indigo_junkie]

Soooo bright, lowrider! I think my retinas are burning!!!!

Great pick-up, mate!

[lolmark]

I'm having a bit of a problem with my back pockets. After about 4-5 months of hard wear, some of the stiching on my back pocket has been tearing off. What kind of thread can I use to repair them? Thanks

Use polyester thread if you don't fancy repairing them that often (you'll need to repair them only once).
