@nietenhosen:

Quoted for new page… 

[nietenhosen]

thanks.
today there is a little spare time for all important things in life…so i made these pics, haha.
looking good on the page, giles, but my pair is not be for sale!
am i wrong, or is the same denim used for 526BJ?

[Beatle]

it is indeed the same denim…

[Giles]

And as a jacket will fade spectacularly…..

[nietenhosen]

…but takes a bit more time.
ja cool, thats an option in fact that the jacket has no side pockets.
we'll see...

omg epic

[elclintor]

WOW!

[madmonday]

i had to be the geek out the group, but kind sir could you please give any details as best you recall the (washes, soaks, sandblasting, etc.)

& as the group before me has stated, those are freaking FANTASTIC

[nietenhosen]

hehe, no sandblastings..
just two soaks early january before wear, another soak june/july and a machine wash at 60*C early aug/sep or so.
6/7 daily wear from 7am to 11pm required…thank you man.

So I have some of the ODs in a 30… Do I size down in these to get the same fit or stick with the 30?

Also, when's the next restock in case I can't cop that last pair of 30s before someone else does?

[babyknight]

GimpKid I think you should probably size down one.  I have found the raw denim to be incredibly stretchy so I think it is a safe bet.

[Giles]

Next restock prob Jan/Feb.

[GimpKid]

Perfect. Thank you both.

Hi..
is it better to soak the unsanforised jeans before hemming OR hem it first then soak it?

thank you guys..

[jacoavlu]

there is no better
pluses minuses to both
main plus to hem pre is to start roping
but unless you really know the denim the length will be a little bit of a guess

[Giles]

I prefer to hem first.  Giles

[regedit]

Yes, i thought the ropping will come quicker and better if get hemmed first than soak it..
thanks guys..

I was wondering about this.  Is the shrinkage in the length predictable enough to accuarately determine what length to have them hemmed to?  If I want a final length of 31, to what should they be hemmed pre soak?

Well when a buddy of mine got his pair of jawnz at SESF, they measured it pre-soak.
I think they take into account the estimated shrinkage post-soak.
So if the inseam is 37.5 and the estimated shrinkage is 2", you'll probably hem it to 33-33.5. After soaking it, it should be around 31.

Hope that helps.
