Okay, order now. But when do we start?!

most likely in early august.

[duck sauce]

we can't go under a 28 waist?

[Atzec]

smallest size available is 27, which shrinks to 26.4" waist.

that size chart looks kinda weird to me. wading is thigh correct? so a size 36 has a 11.4 inch thigh? that seems extremely slim (depending on where they take their thigh measurement) i wear a 34 in pbj's xx-005 and Sams s710. would i be a 34 in these also?

[Mr HaGa]

^The size chart is confusing to me too. But no way is a size 36 going to have a 11.4" thigh. Gotta be at least 13".

[Atzec]

i think they use the same method as bears:

wading is 10cm below bottom.

measurements on bears are pretty similar to denime´s:

i also compared bears´ measurements of these to other 66 type cuts (eternal, 811, sugar cane) and they all measured prtty much the same. (26/26.5cm wading on sz.30)

the thighs n my pair are slim, but still ok.

[Mr HaGa]

What's keeping me from joining is the fact that my Denime Kyotos are tagged 38 and measure 35 in the waist, which is a perfect fit for me. The size charts say that a tagged size 36 (largest size listed) measures 33.8 in the waist, which would be too small. These don't come in a 38 do they?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I'm afraid there isn't

One more sizing-chart:

The measurements look like they did it before wash/soak. At least the waist.

What about a 36 and soaking while wearing or soaking with a waistband stretcher?!

[Mr HaGa]

What's confusing me is that the waistsize for a tagged 36 is 33.8 on the Bears chart vs a 35.8 on the Denime chart, but the inseams are identical. considering the possibility that the one is o/w and the other raw, it doesn't make sense that the waist would shrink 2" but the inseam would remain the same.

Maybe I should email Take5 and ask them to measure a 36 raw and o/w if they have them to clear this up. Because I would like to take advantage of this to get me a 66xx, even if I don't really compete in the contest.

[Atzec]

edmond has a pair of these in sz.36. maybe you can ask him.

if you buy the jeans, i´d really hope to see you competing, it´s 2 years and you can always rotate.

[gonegonegone]

edmond said they shrink from tagged size.

[edmond]

the size 36 are a 36 1/2 inches in big style measurement and they will shrink 2 inches in the waist so maybe a 34 1/2 ? and stretch out to a around 35 with a belt on.. so.. there please dont use the dryer on these babies pls hang dry them

[gonegonegone]

did you soak or wash them?

[edmond]

no not yet but i can predict the shrinkage already theyre just liek any other uns anforized denim except denimes shrinks around 1/4" more than anyone

[edmond]

weve got our own thread over at take5 boys..

Still iffy... Maybe if I can control the shrinkage a little. But 36 1/2 raw is on neither of the size charts... What about the upper thigh BiG style?

please dont use the dryer on these babies pls hang dry them

Well duh...

if you buy the jeans, i´d really hope to see you competing, it´s 2 years and you can always rotate.

If I get them I'd wear them of course, probably as work jeans replacing my FC after that contest ends.

[Stylish Pilot]

hey edmond, could yuo maybe give us full BiG measurements of you size 36's? thats probably what i'll be looking at since the shrink from tagged size

[edmond]

yeah i already did that try searching on this thread

[deadendpro]

haha, maybe it is because i hardly ever stay on Sufu long enough to get involved in a convo, but I didnt know it was you Ed! hahaha. glad to know tho now, another familiar face...kinda. Great job organizing btw. You and Aztec deserve something special, at least a hug. hahaha

[edmond]

[Blacktocomm]

Just sent off my email. This is really exciting. I wanted F380's but this contest may sway me to some Denime.
