[beautiful_FrEaK]

great work Atzec.

I'll post the pre and post-soak measurements when they are nearly dry

[tvshooter]

superfantastic! thanks Az! i'm totally down for this contest but i gotta finish FC first. but hey, it's two years right? i'll have plenty of time to catch up. i'll soak and get pic's up as soon as i can, but i might not be for a week or so...

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Measurements using BiG-method: size 34x34

pre-soak

waist: 34"

front rise: 11"

back rise: 14,75"

thigh: 13"

knee: 9,25"

leg opening: 8,25"

inseam: 36"

post-soak:

waist: 33"

front rise: 10,75"

back rise: 14"

thigh: 12,5"

knee: 9"

leg opening: 8"

inseam: 34,5"

those have for sure some more shrinkage left.

No indigo loss due soaking, water was nearly clear. Hands turnded blue after buttoning up (no struggle to do so)

Those wouldn't really don't work for you, Ale?!

[Atzec]

post soak fit:

measurements are pretty much the same as b_f´s.

[almostnice]

fit is spot on,Atze.looking great!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

on to the fit pics:

Atzec's fit is way better but I hope mine will get better over time when the denim softens up or I do the 2nd soak.

And the classic question...

stack

or cuff?!

I tend to stack because I don't want my denim to break along the cuff-line.

Lot# 666 would have been badass :-D

I posted at Take5 forum but somehow my thread disappeared...

[arcanum]

umm how did u get knee buldge ?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

sitting with still damp denim in front of your pc to post the pics...

it'll settle with the next soaks or when the denim under the knee softens up

[edmond]

size 36 denime 66xx

[Mr HaGa]

^please update those measurements for me after you soak them, Ed?

[edmond]

ill do that buddy when they dry up in a couple of hours

[edmond]

and btw im soaking them right now in boiling water for 2 hours

[edmond]

theyre dryin now... the water smells really nice like gonesh ... hmm wife didnt want me to soak in tub .. had to soak in a pail water became really really dark murky brownish blue

[beautiful_FrEaK]

strange. also after my second soak today ( couldn't stand the knee bulge) the water stayed nearly clear...only some bubbles were on the surface of the water the two times I soaked

[edmond]

weird... how hot is the water?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I was able to put my hand in it to push the air out of the jeans...but not for long time...I assume 50°C

[edmond]

ohh ok mine is really hot i mean like off a boiling kettle and poured on the pail hot.. and i tried to agitate the denim to get more shrinkage

[H.Bosch]

Gonna give my pair a handwash with a fair amount of agitation, was planning to do a machinewash but opted for this instead.

I'm kind of worried they'll be pretty tight but i'm gonna loose some weight and i think i'll be fine.

[salaami]

i'm sure some of you will have hip-flare, but who cares? from what i can see the fits are perfecto. i would join , but i have no coin. i'm unemployed, and who knows when i'll buy another pair of raws. that's why i grabbed up the warehouses when i had the $$$. after warehouse is denime, and then SDA, then Evis(or Rodeo uncle if i can find it. forreal i'm mostly concerned about being able to afford a serious jean-jacket for the late fall/winter. a denime one would be great.

Åbo underättelser???? Vi bor ju i samma stad för faan

[H.Bosch]

Tydligen gör vi det

[almostnice]

b.freak,to answer your question,i think a cuff of 2" at least could really look good on your fit.if you stay with the slim cuff as shown you will end up with both: stacks and cuff,as you will get a bit more inseam when the denim softens up,which in my opinion doesnt look that good.doesnt matter what you go for-you will either damage the cuffline or the hem if you wear them hard.remember the anklehigh 3" doublecuffs of Mr. Denime? That looks soo badass!!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Cuffs and stack make people look like little boys...often (imo). I've soaked them the second time and will look tomorrow how much they shrank. I really like cuffs and I think it works also with slim fits.

As I don't have such nice boots as Mr. Denime I won't rock the ankle-freezer-look.

But cuffs wotk with Chucks as du stacking. I'm sure I'll switch from time to time.

Thx for your advice!

[almostnice]

its said before: kids stack - men cuff !

[pomata]

If I don't sell my jeans in a week I'll join with the 34

Nice fits everybody

[salaami]

i change my cuff steez every few days to avoid that fraying. cuffs over stacks all day! hayashi san is the scholar, and i am one of his humble students... respect the architect!

[Mr HaGa]

I think stacks or a small cuffs (+stacking) looks good on APC, Skulls, DBxSE and stuff like that. A pair of Denime or Fullcount or something like that needs big fucking cuffs. I just rolled up mine to 4". Might be a bit TOO much though...

I don´t undestand that mail either, but i know, that accounts are individually approved, cause they had problems with spammers in the past...
