No , and I am away until Tuesday.  I'll take a photo when I get back, but I suspect it will look like a mass of very dark blue.

Like G said, I don't think you will get much from comparing the 3.  The 21oz BB is going to be the same color as your raws, the xhs will be a tad darker and the OD is black, very black.

I love the absolute insanity that takes place on this board sometimes although I am not sure if it makes me feel crazier when I see other people do it or not as crazy because I'm not the only one…

Ok G thanks. Im just hoping that one will be different enough that i can wear both. If they look too similar i will end up favoring one pair. Wouldnt feel right neglecting a pair lol

[pillowPANTS]

Kit. I will try for some today. "try"

The raw and XHS denim are very different, but I think they're close to the same hue.  The XHS is darker and very smooth while the raw is somewhat lighter and slubby.  It's harder to tell because I've washed the raw denim a couple of times.

No idea about the OD BB since it uses a different base denim, but the OD 666 is much darker and bluer than the other two.  I think they would all compliment each other and not look overly similar.

Couple fit pics finally

[kit99bar]

they look awesome pillow!

[Beatle]

how long have you had them ? looks like they are fading fast..

[pillowPANTS]

Thx kit!!
Picked them up on Aug. 22nd. Been wearing them pretty steady since the first week of sept Beats

[Beatle]

awesome !

So, how is the waist stretching for you guys and girls who wear these?
I can't decide between sizes… :p

[Beatle]

stretches plenty….I would go for the smaller size if in between

[kit99bar]

Agreed.  I was between 31 and 32 and Beatle told me to go with 31.  At first I thought I had sized wrong but after a few weeks I found out to not doubt the master
31 is perfect now.

^ I see the roughness of that 18oz denim now.

Thanks for the stretching info!

[pillowPANTS]

Thx for the pic G. OD may be too black looking for me. Love the look of black denim but feel it looks funny on me

Waist stretched a ton. 37 presoak, 36.2 postsoak(warm water not hot). Stretched to 38 in the first day or so. Now at 39 and holding strong

My Buster RAWs arrived today, thanks Giles and Paula!

These mf's are stifffff….. Do they shrink to or from 18oz?

I did a conservative hot soak and skipped the washing machine. Instead I did wash and rinse them by hand. I didn't want to put them in the washing machine because I didn't know what will happen to the machine -let alone the pants! I have a feeling they will take a good long time to get dry.
