Hi easy

is your Levi's avatar a sarcastic one, or an ode to what was, should have been and will probably never be great again?

@Beatle:

I think he picked it as a constant reminder what never to buy again..

@georgeel:

I believe that there are people still buy them only for the arcs …

Meanwhile, my 666XHS and 811 Wabash shipped!

actual size

[Beatle]

def. a 30 …

i would just measure them and compare with the sizing given from G. you may consider that they stretch an inch or something like that.  this should be the easiest and safest way.

[Beatle]

nope, they won´t stretch an inch…maybe 0.5 if ur lucky

@wakeupscreaming:

They look great, WUS.  Are you getting to grips with them, or are they still the boss? 

[wakeupscreaming]

I like the look of the fit pics i've seen so far….but yet another jean I won't be able to buy cos of my feckin 35 inch waist. I'm either gonna have to follow the "Monday" diet (just messin wit ya Monday - I too enjoy all things edible...well apart from Brussel sprouts) and add an inch to the waistline or...perish the thought...eat less and lose an inch. Shiiiiiiiiit!

@Beatle:

New tattoo? I'm toying with the idea of getting inked in Japan when I go there early November…

Since these are so dark, how does the shade of these look in real life compared to OD jeans?  I know that photographing the true color of denim is notoriously difficult.

[Giles]

Difficult to describe, but sort of shinier and deeper…...

[kit99bar]

The sheen is gorgeous in photos!

My review.. You might have created the world's best fucking jeans.  I could only button the top button at first.  They're harder to button dry than the SRs were dripping wet

Also, these fit more like the BB with the slightly higher rise and wider thigh compared to the 666S post-shrink.  They're exactly what I was looking for.  My knees and thighs didn't fit real well into the 666S until they eventually stretched out, which caused me to put too much pressure on the crotch stitching.

I suspect riding a bike will be painful for a bit in the top block area.  They pinch a little  ???
