Warehouse

[jbanger]

^ i'd leave them as they are fwiw

[pomata]

^me too. nothing wrong with the fit imo

[Mr-Bielby]

They look good as is, but as always it's how you feel in them that counts

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I just +rep you and won't comment as I am biased

[oomslokop]

to me they look great, goes well with your post-skater80i look.

[Max Power]

Thanks guys for the feedback! I'll sleep a night over it and maybe chat with the denim doctor. I honestly am in love with the denim.

[Maynard Friedman]

Keep them, they look good and may make a nice change from your other cuts. Plus your cat certainly seems to like them!

[claes]

Hey Max, looks good! A small hem job or another cuff might improve the fit but I wouldn't taper them. That being said, IF you decide on not keeping them, shoot me a PM. In love with those painted arcs (nice job b_F) and I haven't tried this particular WH denim...

[SLAB]

did you size TTS? I usually size down one or two in Warehouse denim.

 

I think it looks fine as a relaxed fit but if that's not what you are looking for then better check out the 660's

 

I'm also tempted by the 800's but the fit pictures on different Rakuten shops are remarkably different.

There's a shop that shows the fit sized down or TTS and oversized. Overall they look a lot slimmer than your pair.

Max, they do look eccellent on you IMHO, leave them as is or sell them to me ahah!!

[setterman]

Max, if it were me, I'd size down at least one.  They're way too big in the seat, and tapering won't fix that.    

[Max Power]

Wow, so many contradicting opinions. Thanks for all the feedback, though. They're a 34, my usual size, and they measure 35", which most of my pairs do. That's not the issue. The rise is pretty long (I usually like that) and thus they look sloppy and loose. A fit that looks better would probably not feel better, as I can't stand too tight waist & thighs.

 

I will sleep over it, but I really consider the taper & hemming option. They are not far from my UES measurements, so it might work.

Max, bear in mind that Warehouse stretches a lot and sizing down 1 may be advisable. If those 800s have been washed recently and fit like that, there could be more stretch left in them.

[Broark]

Echoing Maynard here, my 1001's are great and I wear them all the time but I almost wish I would've sized down one.

I love the fit right after a wash but they tend to stretch pretty considerably.

Also I promise I'll post some update pictures of them soon, been crazy busy with things!

[pomata]

realxed fits fade way better tho haha

[aho]

Really depends on what you're going for but you could either size down one or size up one. If you do keep them, a hem job will help significantly but they don't look bad by any means!

[Max Power]

Thanks guys, I am in contact with the denim doctor. If I knew how long the BIG 660 are available, I would wait a few weeks for them.

[ThomasK]

I thought I'd post some measurements of my WH #800, which I started wearing recently. Thanks to aho for helping me chosing those! So, I bought size 36 from Japan-Holic. Acc. to their measurements they should be:

 

Waist sz. 36 one wash: 90 cm = 35,4 inches.

 

When I got them, I measured 86/87 cm = around 34 inches. That, for me is great,as they are stretchy and I wanted something that stretches to around 35 inches and not tight-fitting. (I feared, a sz. 34 would be too tight).

 

They measured around 34,5 inches after their first day and are back at 34 inches after a 30 degree wash. 

 

Maybe that helps. I tried to compare that to BIGs measurements. They list 35 inches for a sz. 36 (presumeably also one wash). Maybe that's another run? 

 

In the end it doesn't matter much, I guess I have something to compare when I want to another wh model. Everything being around 34 inches after a wash should be fine..

 

I have mad lots of pictures and close ups of the denim. will post them soon, hopefully.

The jeans will go to Chyllien. And I will get some 660s. Good solution for many people, I suppose.

[CJ23]

Will 660's really shrink 3 inches in the waist ? Size 32 measures 34.5 raw and one wash measures 31.5. Most of my jeans start off measuring 33 inches and shrink an inch or a little more to 32 inches. Should I go with a 32 or 31 in the 660 ?

[CJ23]

Oh, and how is it One wash is only .5 inches difference in the waist between a size 31 and 32 but 2 inches difference Raw

[ThinFinn]

great decision Flo...they just were a tad too big as i already told you!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

just to confirm again, the jeans will get to chyllien tomorrow. I hope you enjoy them and give them the wear they deserve!

[claes]

Thanks b_f and Max Power, very much looking forward to getting them! I've grown a little tired of the short cuffed look of the 1001s and the Fullcount 1101s that I'm also currently wearing are actually slightly too big, can't fall in love with them at the moment. 800 looks a good fit, I'll let you know when I've tried them on

[Max Power]

Just placed my order for the 660. Hope they fit better - I'm a bit concerned about the thigh measurements, the rest looks great. I'm having them hemmed to 37,5" presoak.

[Max Power]

As it was aked earlier - Gordon told me, that the hem at 37,5" also measures 8,5" (no difference to the full inseam length). But -2" is also not much loss.

[cmo]

What waist size did you go for?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

^^ thanks for the info about the leg opening Flo!

 

^as I know him, most likely the size 34

[Max Power]

Yes, I went with 34. Can't make the thighs work otherwise (and had bad experience with sizing down anyway).

[aho]

nice pickup for chyllien...Addicted to WH I see, but glad he has more pairs to work with!
