anyone with 811's can you post your pics up?

the one posted above looks really nice.

[citizens07]

here's another question. Does eternal have an official website for their brand? I can't find one anywhere.

you're the man

[citizens07]

that website is so bare bones, it doesn't really say anything!

[beatle]

Yes, looks like Eternal could use some help with their website...but maybe it just proofs that they put all their affords into making great jeans...

[Klaas]

This distressed model is one of the best I've ever seen....

I've had my eternals for 2 months, no wash. Not much fading apparent, a bit on the hidden rivets and back pockets. Should I soak/wash, will it speed up the process?

[chantheman]

give it time. enjoy the ride

It's a bit of a tricky one really - personaly if there was very litlle fading and they didn't smell too bad I wouldn't bother with washing them. Don't worry about the lack of fading - they take ages! A pair of eternals is for life... Mine are at nearly 9 months and the fades are suddenly starting to get well pronounced with 2 machine washes and I plan on wearing these for a long time to get some really well defined fades

At the end of the day it really depends on how long you want to wear them for - if you really want to get some colour out then yeah give them a wash. Personaly I think eternal denim deserves a bit more than that so if it was me I wouldn't worry about the lack of fades too much and keep on walking.

I hope that helps somewhat - here endeth todays lecture!

Thanks guys, great advice. Another reason I'm asking is because they were getting kinda itchy and annoying so I wanted to do a cold soak.

[braid]

ctazza speaks truth.

longer you wait to wash = better results

If they're that bad then yeah give them a wash. Don't expose yourself to rare jungle skin diseases for the sake of fades lol! A warm soak will probably do the trick - you can get away with 2-3 soaks before the colour fade becomes noticable. Also if you don't move them around too much most of the creases should stay in the jeans

[chantheman]

if these are starting to itch, then fyi i dont recommend sugarcane

[dstrkt]

thanks for all the advice.

chan, good tip...was thinking about it. I'll go with some sams next.

I had a question about the 872's.......do they have that reverse vanity size thing going on like the rest of the eternals??.......I am a 33.....and i was wonderng if i should get a 34......they have one left at blue in green.....or would they be baggy as all hell....thanks guys....

[beatle]

I think you would be all good...

I don't think. I got a 32 in 872s, and the fit is okay, but I think a 30 would be more ideal. In 811s, however, I have a 33 that fits how I want.

[beatle]

Headtowall - you're like a 30/ 31 normally, right ?

[citizens07]

I just got some raw 811s from bears in size 31. I think the waist is perfect. It's very snug now (4 days old) but I imagine they will fit perfectly once stretched out. However the problem is huuuuuuge hip flairs! I dont think I noticed it until after wearing them and sitting/squatting around after a soak. I guess now the butt has greatly stretched out. There's so much extra fabric that the whiskering extends onto the middle of the back pockets!

I don't see pictures of anyone elses 811s have this problem. Anyone know what I can do?

[headtowall]

Headtowall - you're like a 30/ 31 normally, right ?

That is correct. I tried on 811s in a 32 at BiG a while back and could barely button it. The 33 I have now fits really well.

Also, citizens07, I have substantial hip flare with my 811s. It doesn't really bother me though.

[sexualharrasmentpanda]

you have to ignore the waist with the 811's, get true to size and you won't have hip flare, but only a hard time with the waist for a week.

[watchman]

i am also usually a 30/31 and although tight at first, my size 32 eternals fit great now.

[citizens07]

I'm not understanding something. Is hip flare exaggerated by downsizing or upsizing? I normally wear 31s and bought a 31 (which is very tight but it will stretch out okay) and then I get the super flared hips. I hot soaked them last night, hopefully that will fix some of it because I only warmed soaked briefly before. I'll try to take fit pics.

[dino might]

^upsizing, body type, and cut determine hip flare
