[sky140885]

[drgitlin]

If you don't mind me asking, who makes that cardigan?

YMC, from about 2000 or 2001 If I'm not mistaken.

My new APC NS. How's the fit?

great fit sky, a lil tight from my perspective, however since theyre new they'll stretch out just fine in a while.

[plongin]

thought i might as well move it here...

from left to right:

1. jap dior 19cm indigos sz 29 (stretched out quite abit as you can see.. could have possibly gone with 28s)

2. skulls 5010xx 6x6 indigo one wash sz30

3. tsubi dee dee washed grey sz30

4. sugarcane 501 1947 sz30

ht: 168cm wt:62kg

^^ They fit perfectly. You'll get used to the fit in time.

I think it looks good when a guy with a large upper body wears slim jeans.

I cant say I agree. The guy's kind of big, and I dont think fitted jeans are for him.

idea: let's keep the physical activity report to another forum

[dry the rain]

^so i'm not allowed to tell freakazoid that i think his jeans fit him well if i make a side comment? ah well.

plongin: those diors look good sized up, but have you ever thought about tapering them a bit more?

exactly. and its wrong to return others' compliments, be it positive or negative on your fit?

well i think we should only just post pics and shut the hell up. no comments, nothing. this is bull.....

Put this one up on the Imperial thread, but I thought I might share here also. For the curious, 5'9" 178lbs, size 34 Dukes, 23 inch mid-thigh, 24.5 inch from crotch across abductor.

These are my first (and soon to be of many) pair of slim jeans. They've stretched a lot in the thigh and waist. When I first got them, they were skin tight. Now they're just comfortably snug (exaclty the way l like them). Took me about a month of wearing to get it like this. One cold water soak and one wash (had to, febreze smells terrible. couldn't stand it, had to wash them).

Photo taken on a shitty camera phone which I just figured out the self-timer function for (only owned the dam thing for a year). For the even curiouser, that's an RM Williams belt. I own four of them, and they are the only belt I wear (for now. looking to get a Tanner belt once some funds free up).

These are my three pairs of selvage denim I own. The first two were purchased from Japan. The last one from Denimafia .

To give you a better idea about the fit, I’m 5’11â€/168 lbs (180 cm/76kg) My true waist size is 32.

Fullcount 1108 size 31/34

Iron Heart 634S size 32/34

5EP LDB rigid size31/34

The quality of the pictures is not the best and the colors are not true to life, as my lighting was less than perfect.

From left to right, Johnbull Sewing Chop sc005 size 28, bootcut ola sz29, rrds sz30.

Im 5'10" and about 140. You might not be able to tell from the pictures but the size 29 ola's are much tighter around the waist then the johnbulls at size 28. All have been washed once. The johnbulls were hemmed and the back pockets were moved towards the middle and up an inch. My girlfriend said they looked like i shit myself.

[tweeds]

mmm, thank you!

the How Jeans Fit gallery is long overdue, but it will get its head up and over soon.

5'7-5'8, 140-145

flat head 3003xx 28/31-32

the waist was really tight at first but they stretched out quickly. dont be afraid to get a smaller size than in low-rise jeans.

[kenthenoob]

How they wear

[Louis]

^^ omg. nice fit. i should definately pick up a pair of those since your almost the same measurements as i am, becks. What size waist are you with tape measurements and thigh seems like you might be slimmer than me in thigh shize and your hip.

[Becks23]

i did my waist it was 33.5

but my thighs i think are 22.5

i have relatively pinner thighs though.

although i was told to buy my waist size... i think a 32 woulda been fine cause these have stretched out quite a bit.

[dmaz]

Fresh out of the wash so there a bit tight...I am about 5'10'' and 175 pounds. These have about 3 months wear into them, 1 initial soak to size, and 1 Bronner's wash.

[sweetmofo]

dmaz - those do look a little tight. however think they'll stretch out fine.

care to share the measurements post wash? thanks a bunch!

[moykky]

I'm 183cm, 66kg (6 feet 145 lbs). And every gram is pure muscle...

I decided to do this comparison. All these look the same on 'paper', but here they are... Crappy pictures, had to brighten them a lot.

Up-down:

Samurai S710xx 19oz. 30x36,

Skull 5010xx 30x34,

John Bull Sewing Chop 002 30x34.

Samurais are worn everyday for about six weeks (stretched), Skulls are stretched a lot too, SC002 still waiting for the summer.

and bonus Pace p-006 29x34

[sweetmofo]

moykky, nice fit on them jeans and also great pictures!

[jpgm]

moykky - the john bull SC look like they fit you the best imo...cheers for the photos.

Thanks. I bought those jeans for summertime. Us northern vikings cant wear anything heavier than 14oz when the temperature rises to 20C/70F -those days aren't many though.

Those John Bulls are a littlebit different from the rest, they're roomier around hips and thighs. Leg opening is about the same on every pair (about 7.5").

For those who wonder what happened to the (new and not so nice design) leather patch:

It couldn't take the hot soak, it turned to porcelain...

[Larry!]

Those Pace's are niiiiiiice.

Hey I tried to find comparison pics for Eternal 811's and the 872's, just wondering how 872's fit in comparison? Thanks
