Eternal Jeans

okey, easiest thing is probably to measure the waist on your 3001's and go for that size in raw cause they will shrink approximately 2 inch in waist, and now when i rethink, maybe 30 be good.

Nice update on the 811's , Ctazza

[ctazza]

Mine are a tagged 31 and I measure roughly a 30 inch waist. Mine were o/w when I got them and were super tight at first, especialy in the waist and thighs. I have posted fit pics after they have stretched out ealier in the thread. They are slim but not tight. To compare these against other companies I am a 29 in APC, 32 in LVC and 30 in Sam's. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the feedback beatle - I'll get more back pics in a next few days.

waiting for my 811's to come.....

[Turntabloid]

what cut is the 811 based on?

or is this just a slim straight with no repro background?

I believe it's more or less based on a 66 cut.

i found a photo here one day of an Eternal model that was very streaky looking and i think it was a straight cut.

however, for the life of me, i cannot find that photo anymore and i forgot what that model number was.

anyone know which model i am talking about? i believe the number was higher than a 866 or 864.

and anyone know where you can get this pair still? thanks.

[Sho]

nevermind, here are the jeans. wow, i love these ....where do you get these anywhere? or are they discontinued?

and headtowall, did you size one up? they look a bit baggy but it looks rad that way. i dig that look . damn

872. A little over a year.

These 877's natural indigo's don't want to fade...

[headtowall]

Thanks. I got a 32, probably could have done a 30. I played it safe since the 811s I tried on at BiG months prior were suffocating in 32.

[M.O.A]

got em in. love these joints....

[daveo]

headtowall, what boots are those in the above pics? Redwing J Crew?

811 at about a month

[Turntabloid]

if you usually wear 36" in the waist, what size should you pick in the 811s?!

the measurements on big for the 811s with an 39" inseam are quite odd ...

[erbs]

Buy a size 36 raw, and then soak them based on how they fit. If they're tight right away, just do a cold soak. 811s do stretch a fair amount with time.

There can be quite a variation in size in the one-wash 811s so you could go through a few pairs before you find one that fits, which is why it's better to get the raw.

[sidneylo]

If you can find them raw… :]

[Turntabloid]

If you can find them raw… :]

hi sid,

shouldn't that do the trick:

?!

how much do they shrink in the waist and inseam after a warm or hot wash?

edit: parachutes was posting this on styleforum: 'i had someone with 36 waist buy 38 in eternal 811. the sizing can be a bit off for large sizes in japanese repros. though of course, i would think calling gordon at BiG will get you the best input on the sizing.'

[sidneylo]

HAIYO! They sell raw jumpoffs now!

Man, I went to HK and got me a pair of raw ones…glad BiG brought them over now. Size up one, they shrink a bit and are already slim to begin with. I went gung ho and robocopped a size 28 raw from Take5 and I had to do some stretching to get that waist to open up.

edit: I need to wear my 811's more…

[MindxMatters]

You can just slang your 28's my way sid - although I'm more of a natural 26 or 27.

[Turntabloid]

great, thx sid!

[gramps]

Hey guys,

Haven't seen any photos of 864s in the thread, thought I'd throw this up for any curious parties. These are a tagged size 30, which measured a shade under 33 inches across when I got them. I probably would have purchased a size down from this, but was wary of their exceptionally low rise.

I really can't say enough positive things about these jeans

Anyway, here they are on a quasi-recent camping trip.

(And as for the questionable laces here, they were a from-the-hip replacement with a some nylon nylon rope.)

[Wesley Pipes]

perfect fit

[destructodisk]

Yeah that be a mighty trill fit, gramps.

I need to grab some 811's now that they're finally going to be offered in my inseam indefinitely.

Gonna size down 6

[sidneylo]

Gonna size down 6

Godamn you're going to be shitting diarrhea all month long…

[destructodisk]

Oh yeah, we're on the internet.

[effin genius]

is there a general consensus on whether or not i need to soak 811s?

what kind of shrinkage can i expect in the waist and inseam?

sizing.....should i size down or go to true to size i wear 33 in F380s?

[jiomitori]

I would advise you to soak 811's even if you get the one-wash. Mine were somewhat loose before a hot soak and ended up snug. It definitely makes a difference.

Also, I would never advise someone to size down on these.
