How about suggesting he sizes up, instead of telling him?

 

I think that's a great fit.

some progress on my 811's. had them for about 2 years now

 

[emjaiye]

Is anyone interested in trading their size 32 883s for my size 33 883s? I put up a listing here to sell them, but honestly I'd rather just do a trade if possible. This denim is seriously amazing and I'm champing at the bit to start fading a pair.

Here's some progress on my 883. I noticed some crotch holes starting to form and I knew they would shrink more as they were only one-wash. I figured I'd give them a ride through the machine with no detergent on hot, delicate cycle to get the extra shrinkage out before I get them repaired. I'm at 5 months

Those look great rockon99. How much did they shrink after the hot wash?

[rockon99]

I haven't actually measured them; at least an inch. I may be exaggerating that...

I'd love to know how certain areas shrank if you have time (no need for specific measurements). I've heard some people say the waist and thighs didn't shrink much at all after a hot wash, but that the inseam shrank up quite a bit.

[Max Power]

The look fantastic!

That's what I've heard, too. I'm kind of banking on it happening with mine - washed them a couple of hours ago!

Fit on my 883s Probably about 6-7 weeks of actual wear.

Let us know!

[Ceffyl]

Well, I put them on after their first machine wash and I couldn't do up the top button, so I put them in the wardrobe and started thinking about what to buy with the money I'd get from selling them; but I tried them on again this morning, I can button them up, and I swear there's more give to them now then there was before. I'm so happy that I won't have to sell them!

There was a little bit of inseam shrinkage, but that's good.

save your emotions, the fit is fine

Newest to the club. My 883's.

Approx 2 months wear time

1 hot soak when I got 'em

1 hand wash today with a little soap

Beautiful denim - tough to break at first but now they're coming to life.

Very nice, Eternal is another brand I'll have to add to my collection at some point down the road.

I read through the old Eternal contest thread a few weeks ago and it really made me want a pair.

[Wörn75]

Thanks @Broark.

 

I'm totally jealous of your Full Count Special Run!!! Your pair looks freakin' amazing!

 

>>  @Broark Full Count

 

I totally recommend getting a pair of Eternal's for your collection. You won't be disappointed. Tough to break and patience is a virtue.

 

Watching the last few months of the Eternal contest photos post up here on Sufu is what got me hooked on getting a pair.

 

In my humble opinion Eternal's 14.5oz / rope dyed 20+ times denim wears and fades unlike any other I've seen.

 

The last half dozen pages of that contest thread are a testament to the unique quality of Eternal denim.

 

So many incredible pairs on display!

 

>>  Contest thread

 

Probably wouldn't recommend them as a first pair of raw denim for someone though as they could get frustrated not seeing much progress for a couple months.

Apologies Worn but I gave you a fat fingers iPhone Neg by mistake, meant to hit Green.

[Wörn75]

No worries Maynard. 

 

Thanks for letting me know...otherwise my feelings might have been hurt...LoL!

[Maynard Friedman]

Exactly! Can't have that can we?

[Broark]

Something about that dark, streaky denim that Eternal uses really appeals to me.

Likely going to end up putting a few things up for sale, maybe a pair of 888's will make their way in as replacements.

Anyone with Samurai 710s and 883's who can help me with sizing/fit? I'm ideally looking for a fit a tad slimmer than my 710s, mainly from the knee downwards (top block is fine). I wear a 31 in the 710s which fits perfect without a belt, can I pull off a 31 or would a 32 be better? Thighs on the 710s are about as tight as I want them, so if the thighs are a lot smaller I might need to size up. 

[chantheman]

how much stretching should i expect in my 811's?

 

these are still pretty snug after about 20 wears

[Max Power]

Did you buy them one washed? I recall Eternal denim as pretty hard to stretch, but you should get a certain amount nevertheless. 0,5"-1" should be possible, not likely much more.

[chantheman]

they are the contest pair so i think they were raw. ill take half to a full inch in stretch but it seems to take a whole lot longer than i expected

i'm a 32 in both, although could probably squeeze into a 31 if i tried hard enough (i'm a 30 in most non-denim). the 883s are slightly slimmer and i prefer them overall.

A couple pairs of 811s. The left is at 9 months and two washes, and the right is pushing 8 years.

[Broark]

Yup, I've got to get a pair of Eternals for the collection sometime!

I need to put a few pairs up for sale before that though.

Impressive that that pair is still so dark for eight years...

[Wörn75]

Man that 8 year old pair is just another example of how incredible the Eternal denim really is.

 

I've yet to see any other label that compares except maybe Samurai or believe it or not Skull.
